Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: ARVEST BANK GROUP, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Arvest Central Mortgage reported me 120 days late during loan modification trial period in the midst of XXXX when I made ALL the trial payments on time. They state my mortgage was delinquent when the trial period started which is incorrect and that's the reason they reported my account 120 days late. I had requested and was approved for a XXXX month forbearance plan from XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX. I applied for the loan modification XX/XX/XXXX and was approved for the trial XXXX1st pmt XX/XX/XXXX, 2nd pmt XX/XX/XXXX and 3rd pmt XX/XX/XXXX. All XXXX payments were made on time and they still reported 120 days late for XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX. I called once I found out this was reported on my credit report and " their response I signed document stating my credit score could be affected by accepting a loan modification ''. I realize this but thought they were only allowed to report the truth which was I had had agreed to loan modification trial period NOT that I was ever 120 days. I was on forbearance XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX so how could I possibly be 120 days late XX/XX/XXXX?!? They had originally reported 120 days late for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX which they removed after my first complaint. They also told me if I didn't request for a loan modification after my forbearance ended I would be required to pay the XXXX  months of mortgage payments immediately or they would report my account 120 days starting XXXX which they ended up doing anyways. I would have NEVER agreed to the loan modification if I knew they would report me 120 days late. I would have cashed out my XXXX to get my account current and start the process to refinance my loan ASAP. Because of what they did I was unable to refinance when rates were exceedingly low in XXXX & XXXX all the while they continue to take advantage of what they did to ruin my credit and make money off of my higher interest rate and collecting PMI of XXXX XXXX monthly. I could have refinanced and not have to pay {$580.00} PMI due to value of my home increasing by almost 60 %. They took advantage of me during the height of XXXX which is criminal. Attached is the history print-out from their website showing all payments made from when home was purchased XX/XX/XXXX - current date.
