Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
am writing XXXX XXXX to inform you of a significant error on my account. In XXXX of XXXX, my account went into forbearance because I was ill with XXXX and could not pay my loan. I did not make any payments on my loan for XXXX year. In XXXX of XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX stating my escrow was negative {$1800.00} and that my monthly payment would go up due to the escrow being shorted. On XX/XX/XXXX, a payment of {$1800.00} was received with words stating it apply to the escrow account ; however, the payment was held due to the account being in forbearance. On XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the application was successful on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX my application XXXX had met the qualification and requirement for the program and would be notified when funds have been transferred to my mortgage servicer XXXX  to bring my account current as of XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted XXXX to verify if funds had been received and they had not ; however, I spoke to someone in the escrow department, and they let me know that I was short {$39.00} for the payment that was received on XX/XX/XXXX, and that if I paid over the phone, it would be applied to my escrow and an escrow analysis would be completed on the account. The mortgage payment should return to the original mortgage of {$2700.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from the XXXX XXXX XXXX stating they disbursed to XXXX a {$35000.00} payment that would bring my account current to XX/XX/XXXX, making me responsible for my XX/XX/XXXX payment. However, I have spoken to many supervisors and loss ligation representatives where there is a disconnect. XXXX XXXX XXXX received their final numbers from XXXX ; XXXX provided them with the amount that would bring my account. My account is currently delinquent because there is a missing payment. XXXX told me they would fix this, which has yet to be fixed. 
I was told by a supervisor I would need to contact the XXXX XXXX XXXX and reapply, which I did and was denied based on my qualifications. XXXX XXXX has yet to try to resolve the situation with the payment, which is causing hardship on the account. There is a payment that needs to be included. XXXX communicated with XXXX XXXX, stating there was no overage. They will not pay the additional funds due to XXXX mistake. I am asking for this to be handled promptly, 30 days from the date of this letter. Otherwise, attorneys will be involved. I have attached a copy of the email from XXXX  XXXX of the amount paid and that it would bring the account current.

Complaint narrative:
I decided to check my credit report mid year of XXXX. I noticed an account from XXXX  that did not look familiar. I searched XXXX and found it to be a furniture store. My main furniture was purchased from an auction in XXXX  including my couches and dining room table. Anything else was purchased used. I tried calling my credit agencies asking about an address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AZ XXXX as I have never lived here. Ive also never had any mail updated to this address and I do not know anyone that has ever been connected to this address. I was informed to call XXXX fraud dept through XXXX XXXX and received confirmation that my fraud packet was received on XX/XX/XXXX and to allow time for review. I provided ALL details including my police report and report # XXXX, Fraud victims with FTC # XXXX, and the Identity theft complaint and affidavit requested by XXXX signed and notarized, drivers license ect. I had not heard from XXXX  as advised so I reached out to them on XX/XX/XXXX and they responded on XX/XX/XXXX explaining that they have sent me a denial letter on XX/XX/XXXX which I have not received explaining that the account that was opening in XXXX matched my signature on the documents provided by me, phone, email, and address. This is false. My email XXXX was created in XXXX. Ive lived at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX and still do now. My phone # has not changed but still would not be associated with this XXXX  account unless XXXX chose to update my information from XXXX to now based on the background check of my name and demographics. I have asked XXXX  to provide me with this so called proof that the information from this XXXX agreement matched the information from my back ground check and they informed me that they are only able to provide this information to the police. Before I submit a court complaint, I am requesting someone with minor education to review this account. I need to know all details associated including what was ordered with the {$5000.00} plus dollars used. Did someone pick up the merchandise? Was it delivered? Who signed for it? What was ordered?. If my dispute was declined I will need a lot more than what XXXX fraud department is choosing to provide to me.

Complaint narrative:
I am XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ). 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion. 

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors. 

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion. 

Based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation. 

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest.
