Complaint narrative:
My mortgage company AnnieMac continues to Not report my ontime payments for the last six years on my credit reports. They state they do, but all credit bureus show they reported my mortgage is paid off and that I am on a wage earner plan which is totally incorrect. I verified on the phone with them and they sent me a letter saying all payments since XXXX  were received and on time and I am current but they did not update info on credit bureaus. My mortgage was NOT included in my XXXX XXXX bankruptcy. I Made all payments directly to them and not thru court. I need them to report the correct balance and complete monthly history since XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — Fees or costs during the application process
Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2025, I was contacted multiple times by a representative from the mortgage lender regarding a refinance offer. I did not initiate the applicationthey actively solicited me. During the process, I was repeatedly urged to pay an appraisal fee, even though underwriting had not yet been completed. I was told this was a necessary next step. 

I paid the appraisal fee in good faith, trusting the process was progressing appropriately. However, shortly afterward, my application was denied and critically, the appraisal report had not even been reviewed or used in the decision. When I requested a refund for the appraisal fee, the company refused, stating that the appraisal had been completed and that there are no guarantees on loan approvals. 

This practice feels misleading and unfair. I was charged for a service that had no bearing on the decision outcome and was pushed into paying under the assumption it was required. I am requesting that the company refund the appraisal fee and reevaluate its communication practices with prospective borrowers.
