Issue: Trouble during payment process — Private mortgage insurance (PMI)
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX ( dates are best estimates since the messages have been removed from my online portal with Newrez ) I submitted a request to have my home value reviewed for removal of PMI. I sent payment of {$150.00} for the broker 's opinion required for review. This check ( check number XXXX ) was debited from my checking account XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX reached out about doing the home value review. I got this scheduled and XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX came out to my home and took photos. He said he couldn't discuss home value with me, but that I could contact my mortgage company after he submits his assessment and I could get a copy of it. On XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, Newrez sent a letter stating my PMI removal request had been denied for one of five possible reasons and gave no specifics as to why. The only reason that could have applied to my situation is that the home value assessment wasn't high enough for removal ( LTV still above 80 % ) since the other reasons had to do with delinquency, etc. I called Newrez after receipt of this letter and asked for specifics on why my request was denied. The CSR said that it must have been too low of a value, but did not give specifics. I asked him for a copy of the assessment and he said it would be at my house in 7-10 days. I never received it. The end of XXXX or very beginning of XXXX, I sent a request to Newrez through the online portal asking for a copy of the assessment and haven't heard anything from them. 

This morning, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a home equity marketing email from Newrez ( which I frequently get ) stating my home 's estimated value is $ XXXX. The necessary home value needed for me to reach a LTV of 80 % for PMI removal is only $ XXXX. I'm getting mixed messages from them. They want to lend me more money on my home, but then won't remove the PMI. 

My complaint is : I believe the assessment on my home is low and would like to see a copy of the assessment. 
I never received the assessment after multiple requests. 
If they are going to estimate my home 's value at $ XXXX above what I need for PMI removal, they should remove it. They're quick to want to make money, but don't want to actually service the loan properly.

Complaint narrative:
A few months ago, I went into a XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX, CA ) to close an account due to suspicious activity on my debit card. This transaction was successful. However, a month later, I began to have problems with my new account with merchants not being paid. It is returned when I make a payment because the account is not found. XXXX, my highest Creditor, charged me a fee and dropped me as a client for being late, and too many returned payments after five ( 5 ) years without ever being late. My employer notified me they could not deposit my check directly if I did not submit a new bank account. I did not have to inform anyone of the changes to my account because it automatically switched over. I know this because I have done it in the past. If I change my account and want someone removed, it is a fee. I have had plenty of opportunities to correct this matter. The IRS has now contacted me, stating that my payment was retracted from my bank. I DO NOT NEED IRS PROBLEMS!

State: IL

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused XXXX XXXX  to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
