Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: Guild Holdings Company
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint with CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX after learning ( via the XXXX number ) that Guild Mortgage had transferred my mortgage to a new company, but had not informed me by mail nor had they transferred the additional principal payment Guild accepted from me and credited to my mortgage balance on XX/XX/XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Guild responded, saying : " Guild has determined that no error has occurred. You were sent a loan transfer notification letter dated XX/XX/XXXX indicating that your loan would be transferred on XX/XX/XXXX. Please see a copy of the referenced letter enclosed. Depending on how long it takes for XXXX system to accurately reflect the transfer, your XXXX balance should be updated shortly after the XX/XX/XXXX effective transfer date. '' A few problems with this response : XXXX ) I never received the loan transfer notification letter until Guild emailed it to me on XX/XX/XXXX -- on XX/XX/XXXX I was told they couldn't tell me what day my loan would transfer. 
XXXX ) I was initially told by Guild representatives at the XXXX number that the extra principal payment would be credited to the new servicer on XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX ) When I called back on XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX, I was told that the additional principal payment would be transferred by the end of XXXX, definitely by XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX Guild has not answered my question about whether I would be credited for the interest that had accrued on the additional principal amount but should have been reduced between the XX/XX/XXXX acceptance of my additional principal payment and whatever date they finally get around to crediting the payment to my new servicer. 
XXXX ) I have called Guild repeatedly since XXXX and because my loan is no longer active with them, I can not get through the automated system ( it places me on hold and then disconnects my call repeatedly ). 

Today is XX/XX/XXXX and my XX/XX/XXXX additional principal payment and the interest it should have reduced still have not been credited to my new servicer.

Complaint narrative:
I wish to underscore that the inclusion of inaccurately reported late payment remarks on my accounts not only raises significant concerns but also represents a blatant violation of the regulations delineated in the 15 USC 1666. This statute, an integral component of the Fair Credit Billing Act, specifically aims to safeguard consumers against unjust billing practices and mandates the accurate reporting of payment histories. Each payment associated with these accounts has been diligently and promptly rendered within the specified timeframes. Therefore, any deviation from this precise reporting not only undermines my financial integrity but also contravenes the legal protections enshrined within this statute. It is imperative to promptly rectify this situation to ensure compliance with the law and uphold the rights of consumers.

Complaint narrative:
I am utterly disappointed right now, you complete disregard your own stated timeline. In your memo dated, it's explicitly stated that the results of the investigation would be provided to me within XXXX  days. That deadline has come and gone without a single word from them regarding the status or findings. 

This lack of follow-through and blatant failure to uphold their commitment is unacceptable. You are the bureau and you have ample time to conduct your work and there is no justified reason for this excessive delay in sharing conclusions. In your memo built an expectation that I relied upon, and your inaction represents a breach of that assurance.
