Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
After my FHA Loan was transferred from XXXX XXXX company to Loancare XXXX, none of my mortgage information was transferred over correctly. Loancare reported me 60days late to the credit bureaus and tried to foreclose on my home after speaking with XXXX XXXX in the collections department and providing her with proof of payment to XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, which was within the 60 day legal period of the loan being transferred. I also sent a letter to Loancare from XXXX stating that my loan was transferred to Loancare as of XXXX XXXX, which is why I continued my payments to them for those two months. I was reassured that these funds would be collected from academy and with no penalty to me. I also asked for my escrow account to be fixed since it was still reflecting a dramatically lower payment than I was making at XXXX. Even still i continued to receive constant foreclosure letters and no change to my escrow account. After getting a lawyer to assist me in this process I then spoke with XXXX XXXX who assisted in getting my monthly payment corrected but would not assist me in my escrow shortage. He claimed everything was update and could no longer assist me. I then spoke to someone in customer service named XXXX XXXX who admitted my escrow account was short and would work to resolve the issue but, I have yet to hear back from her. She asked me to forward her all my emails with XXXX XXXX and I did. This issue has been ongoing since XXXX XXXX. I have lost sleep and been stressed out for months. I thought laws were put in place to prevent company 's from treating clients like this. The lack of response and care is completely discomforting and unprofessional. It would take me to call Loancare 5 times just to recover one person to assist me correctly. With all said and done my escrow account is still short in funds. XXXX sent me information stating they sent over {$2300.00} for my escrow account through XXXX 2016. Loancare reports only having {$1800.00}, as of today, remaining. This amount is incorrect because my monthly escrow payments are ) XXXX. My monthly PMI is {$100.00}. My yearly Hazard insurance is {$720.00}. So if you add {$260.00} for each month of XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, then subtract the monthly {$100.00} for PMI and {$720.00} for hazard insurance, my escrow balance should be {$2000.00}. Where is the rest of my money???

Product: Credit card — 
Issue: Customer service / Customer relations — 
Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account with BBVA Compass to get the promotional offer and since I 'm an employee. Into about the third week of having the card it was continuously declined. I called customer service to see what was going on and when my bill was due. I was told the bill had been mailed on XX/XX/XXXX and that day was XX/XX/XXXX. Around XX/XX/XXXX I realized I never received the statement. Come to find out I was told by someone in the fraud department my social was being used by a man in California. I went straight to ordering my credit report but after some thought about what they advised this could not have been correct since I had opened another account with another company since then with no problem. I requested for my account to be closed around XX/XX/XXXX and was advised the amount I owed. They said the statement should be arriving soon. The following week when I tried to set up an online account to just pay the bill online I kept receiving an error that my zip code was incorrect. After some thought I realized BBVA Compass must have either combined my account with someone else or went in and changed my information to an address in California and this is why I was previously told my social had been used by another person. I spoke again to the fraud department and they stated they reopened my account. I advised them I only wanted to make sure the bill was paid in time before I incurred any late fees or penalties. I was informed of the amount owed and was told I could sent the payment thru inter office if I wanted my payment expedited. Before I make a payment I would also like to be aware of what I am paying and not just send money to a company who changing my account information without my permission. I was also told my account would be updated with my correct address. This was the Monday before XXXX and I just checked again on XX/XX/XXXX and I still can not create an account. It is near impossible to get a hold of the correct person on the phone or even just speak to someone in a timely manner. My husband and I plan to start looking for a house within the year and have been monitoring my credit. I would like to receive a statement prior to making a payment and then close my account. I would also like to file a complaint as well for the actions that have been taken on my account. Please advise.

Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX I first contacted LoanCareXXXX to request that they take the funds from my escrow account and pay the property taxes in the amount of {$3200.00} immediately. We were in the process of refinancing our mortgage and needed proof that the taxes had been paid. I was told to submit a written request and also to fax the request to their tax department. After hearing nothing for over a week - I called and spoke to a " customer service '' representative who told me to submit everything again since the first contact I had with this company had given me incorrect fax number. I repeated the process on XXXX/XXXX/16. That same day I received a computer generated reply that assigned me a ticket number and which said I should wait five days for a thorough review and research of my inquiry. Again, I heard NOTHING so I called LoanCare and was told on XXXX XXXX, 2016 that a check # XXXX had been sent to XXXX County Tax Department on XXXX XXXX, 2016. After checking both online and by phone I learned that the check had never been received. That same day I sent another written request to LoanCare asking what had happened to the payment. I also called, but no one was able to offer me any explanation. I was told to wait a few days for the tax department to process my payment. On XXXX XXXX - over a month after I started this process - taxes still UNPAID! Ironically, I mailed the XXXX County tax department a check for taxes due on another property we own on XXXX XXXX, 2016 and my personal payment was already posted on XXXX XXXX. I again wrote to LoanCare and requested that someone contact me by the end of business day and told them if I heard nothing I would attempt to file a complaint. Obviously - this matter has yet to be resolved and no one bothered to contact me. I am aware that mortgage lenders keep escrow funds and earn interest on them and wait to the penalty date before paying property taxes. In a situation like this - after numerous requests and dubious information - I am asking for help to resolve this matter. I have found LoanCare to be completely uncooperative and I am extremely relieved to be done with them as my mortgage holder. Our refinance was completed XXXX XXXX, but I still need to resolve WHERE my {$3200.00} escrow money is. On LoanCare 's website it shows that it was removed from my escrow account leaving a balance in the account of {$590.00}. That is what the new mortgage lender also stated and I was told that this money would be mailed to me. Thank you for any help you can provide resolving this matter. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX

Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Problem # 1 XXXX, I received a letter from Carrington stating that my account was placed into a suspense account. I had spoken to XXXX reps from Carrington asking them what and why it was. They both replied that they had no idea because records showed I was on time on all of my mortgage payments. On my third call and after receiving another letter, I spoke to a rep who found out within a minute. She said I was short on my payment because of an escrow change. I told her that it was unfair that now I was charged a late fee for every month, but I paid the charges anyways that same day to clear this up. She told me I had to write a letter to Carrington Research to recoup any late fees I was unfairly charged. I faxed them the attached letter. They refused citing no valid reason. I tried to refinance, but it showed that I was late on my payments numerous times? Refinancing is impossible now because of the negative/late flags on my account. Problem # 2 In my XX/XX/XXXX statement there is a late charge of {$20.00}. I spoke to a rep in XX/XX/XXXX who told me it was a `` drive by inspection fee '' charged because they wanted to make sure I lived at my property. The rep said she was unable to give me any answers to any question, and that if I wanted any info that I was to write another letter and send it to their Research department? Again?

Complaint narrative:
Basically in XX/XX/XXXX I moved into an apartment with my sister. By XX/XX/XXXX I moved out of the city, signing myself out of the lease. Unfortunately, my sister broke lease a few months later and was offered to move out and owe money instead of having an eviction on her credit. She agreed. The problem I have is that I was gone before XX/XX/XXXX, and yet on my XXXX report it says that as of XX/XX/XXXX I share responsibility in owing {$3000.00}. That 's ludicrous. My biggest problem, unfortunately, is that I did n't retain proof of signing off because, stupid me, I did n't believe I 'd need it. What can I do to get rid of this score leech on my report? Now that I 've lived on my own for 2 years successfully, I 'd like my credit score to not be in the red. 

On top of everything else, I received absolutely NO communication about this. I just happened to check my XXXX XXXX account and it just magically appeared there.

Complaint narrative:
I disputed this error ( debt that I do not owe ) XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and again on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. This agency never responded on either dispute. They finally responded when I filed a complaint but still did not resolve this matter, claiming that they could not find the account and needed me to provide them with more information. I have provided my name, my social security number, my birthday and my address. The burden of proof is not on me. This erroneous debt is defaming my name and causing me to be denied for credit. By the laws of the finance code Sec 392 their time to respond or investigate is up. If this company needed more information they could have requested that from me when I first disputed this error. I need this deleted from my credit file immediately!
