Complaint narrative:
I am writing regarding my mortgage account with XXXX now XXXX. XXXX has reported to the credit reporting agencies that my account is in forbearance even though I NEVER requested or agreed to forbearance, and I have repeatedly notified XXXX that I am NOT interested in forbearance and was seeking only a Loan Modification. Please help me ensure that XXXX immediately removes this Forbearance report from my Credit Report. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX at ( XXXX  ) XXXX-XXXX  to request a Loan Modification due financial challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic. I eventually received the documents and on XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a Loan Modification. XXXX  acknowledgement of my application dated XX/XX/XXXX, included a notification that I was approved for a Forbearance Plan. I immediately notified XXXX by phone and email that I was NOT interested in Forbearance and was seeking only a Loan Modification. At XXXX request, I submitted updates to the application and additional documentation on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX each of which XXXX acknowledged with notification that I was approved for a Forbearance Plan. I immediately responded to each notification with a phone call that I had NOT requested Forbearance and was seeking a Loan Modification. I also notified XXXX in writing at XXXX that I had NOT requested and did NOT want Forbearance on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified by XXXX by mail that while my Loan Modification was not approved, I had the option to appeal this decision and that I was being offered a Forbearance Plan instead. I responded immediately by mail appealing the decision and indicating, once again, that I am NOT interested in a temporary Forbearance Plan was seeking a permanent Loan Modification. In a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX notified me that my appeal was denied and that I have 14 days to accept or reject the Forbearance Plan that I had been offered. I responded immediately via email on and XX/XX/XXXX and once again rejected the Forbearance Plan. On XX/XX/XXXX I learned that XXXX had reported a XXXX  balance forbearance plan to all the credit reporting agencies, and that this forbearance was now reflected on my Credit Report. I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised to call the XXXX Credit Dispute line at ( XXXX  ) XXXX-XXXX. The first representative hung up on me immediately. The second representative placed me on hold for 74 minutes before hanging up on me. 

I am outraged that XXXX would report a Forbearance Plan on my Credit Report that I NEVER requested, NEVER consented to and repeatedly indicated that I did NOT want. As a result of, XXXX egregious behavior, my credit score may be negatively impacted. I am also outraged that XXXX has not responded to any of my requests to remove the Forbearance from my Credit Report and has responded instead with silence and stonewalling. Please help me ensure that XXXX immediately removes this Forbearance report from my Credit Report.
