Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Select Portfolio Servicing Inc is the mortgage company and have increased the escrow amount claiming it was to cover XXXX shortage. The amount being assessed will result in an excess of {$3000.00} beyond the actual projected escrow amount necessary. Mortgage companies are required to notify the owner of any projected shortfall and allow owner to pay the difference to avoid an increase on mortgage payment. I was not notified of the shortage until XX/XX/XXXX and the increased payment takes effect XX/XX/XXXX. There was no opportunity to pay the difference or to dispute it and now the payment is expected by XX/XX/XXXX. I learned from my homeowners insurance company that SPS paid the insurance twice for XXXX and refunded that amount to me in the amount of $ XXXX. I sent sps the actual shortage of {$200.00} for the difference in XXXX and XXXX and the check was cashed by SPS with no acknowledgement nor reciept. The projected escrow necessary for XXXX is {$4400.00} according to the escrow analysis and they intend to collect {$7400.00} by increasing the mortgage payment. SPS has continually attempted to threaten forclosure claiming that the payment was late when in fact payments have all been made so it is forseeable they will continue to attempt to take my home in light of this threat to collect a excess mortgage escrow balance and the hardship the additional {$250.00} will pose on top of the existing {$360.00} escrow payment already being collected. I wrote them and sent the actual shortage and offered to pay the insurance refund sent to me due to their error and yet they expect the XXXX payment to be elevated to an amount that will result in an excess of {$3000.00}. I have already requested a reevaluation of the escrow analysis due to their erronous overpayment of mortgage insurance.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: CLGF Holdco 1, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In the late fall of XXXX, I noticed that my credit rating had dropped. When I reviewed it, the report had two addresses unknown to me and an Indigo credit card from XXXXXXXX XXXX. Both the card and Bank I did not recognize. I reported the card and the two unknown addresses to XXXX and XXXX who removed them from my record. ( The XXXX County Sheriff traced the addresses to two mailboxes in XXXX California ), I really have been paralyzed by all this, not knowing what to do and especially haven't trusted websites or credit card companies I hadn't heard of. 

I tried to talk with the credit card company and they insisted the charges were from me. I explained that I had never heard of them before. I was fearful since their website looked really sketchy and I did not want to reveal any personal information to them over the phone. My conversations with them resolved nothing. 

I had moved to another city for work in XX/XX/XXXX and have tried to dispute these charges, but for some reason XXXX was insisting that they were still mine. I got correspondence from a the Law firm of XXXX and XXXX saying that they represented XXXX XXXX XXXX who had bought the debt of {$1600.00} and that I should pay them immediately. They have statements indicating the charges and two unpaid statements that have my name on them with the unknown addresses. They sent me a form requiring me to enter my personal information and I did not want to fill it out. XX/XX/XXXX, they sent me a letter asking me to pay 70 % of the debt they claimed I owed as a settlement. 

Out of principal, I do not want to pay for something that was taken fraudulently in my name. XXXX and XXXX have now ( XX/XX/XXXX ) served me a notice that they are suing me in Small Claims Court. How do I defend myself? I don't have the resources to hire an attorney that would exceed the cost of the amount they claim I owe.
