Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I have a mortgage refinanced with Freedom Mortgage in XX/XX/2021 for 2.5 % fixed loan over 15 years. The company preceded with multiple escrow shortages notices. The last notice was received in the mail only 12 days prior to escrow overage payment due or I would endure mortgage increase. This is less than the contract required 30 day notice for changes in mortgage payments. When I had enough, I requested to have escrow account removed and I will be making tax and insurance yearly payments on my own to not have to go through the sudden choice to come up with the escrow shortage amount or have house note increased. Even when paid, my mortgage payments were raised to a lesser degree with explanation to avoid expected shortages or to make sure I have at least the required XXXX dollar amount in the escrow. 
I have since been bombarded with emails and have submitted for texts to be stopped- all regarding offers to get money to refinance. I do not recall this level of harassment from Freedom Mortgage prior to my current refinancing at 2.5 %. 
May main complaints are 1 ) The mortgage company did not provide contractual 30 day notice, by contract ( and I believe by law ) in order to allow time for me to come up with escrow shortage.

2 ) I am receiving frequent offers to get money to refinance. The interest rate likely will be higher.

3 ) I also receive letter notice my home insurance was going up with advertising for options with insurance. When I called my insurance, I was told insurance estimates had not been completed for the next year yet

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered discrepancies in my credit history related to the reporting of late payments, and I believe these inaccuracies stem from undelivered monthly statements. 
Upon a thorough review of my credit report, it has come to my attention that late payments have been reported, affecting my credit score and financial standing. After careful investigation, it appears that these late payments resulted from undelivered monthly statements.

15 USC 1666b under the Truth in Lending Act, which mandate that creditors ensure periodic statements are mailed or delivered to consumers at least 21 days before the payment due date. In my case, it seems that I did not receive these statements within the specified timeframe, leading to inaccurate late payment reporting to your agency.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My Paypal account was compromised in XXXX XXXX. Credits and debits were issued between Paypal web and Paypal credit to offset the fraudulent purchase, but one of the two entities issued credit and did not properly offset the entry leaving my online account with a credit balance ; thereby, preventing me from using it. 

Paypal web has harassed me by sending text messages, emails, letters and phone calls asking for payment for a dollar amount I dont owe. I refused to make the payment because thats extortion as my Paypal credit account is paid in full. 

Due to the lack of payment, Paypal web has continued to block the use of my online account. 

Ive called Paypal web and Paypal credit numerous times to resolve this issue, but the only response Im getting is finger-pointing from both entities. In addition, Paypal web has given Paypal credit XXXX  days to resolve the issue leaving me without the use of my online account due to an incorrect credit balance.
