Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a late payment with my mortgage company, XXXX XXXX. Trans Union and XXXX are reporting 30 days late for XX/XX/XXXX. During this year, I was getting paid once a month as a contractor, and I would make all my payments before the end of the month. 

For XXXX, I filled out an automatic payment form because I was traveling ; however, I noticed that on XX/XX/XXXX, the payment still needed to be posted to my account. I tried to pay online, but it wouldnt allow me to do so without including past-due late fees. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called immediately when I landed at XXXX XXXX. I explained everything to a representative, and she put me on hold, and the call dropped. I called right back and received a voicemail saying the office was closed - I tried three more times and received the same message. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I called first thing in the XXXX and was advised they were having phone issues. The representative told me she would take my payment and that it shouldn't be reported late because of their phone issues. However, she suggested that I monitor my credit report for any changes and that my late fee would be refunded. 

I want the late payment to be revered to ok or paid as agreed because the above was not my fault.
