Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
Upon receipt of the Escrow Shortage notice we paid the amount of {$530.00} and that payment was sent to Mr. Cooper. Special note- the notice DID NOT have a mailing address listed on the notice so we called to get the mailing address nor did the notice indicate the borrower could make a payment to clear up the shortage. This is poor communication from Mr. Cooper. 

We made the normal payment of {$670.00} for the XX/XX/XXXX payment. 

About XX/XX/2022 we phoned Mr. Cooper to ensure that they had received the escrow shortage and that it was properly placed into the escrow bucket. Upon discussion, we noted that we sent the normal payment of {$670.00}. Nothing from the agent on the phone was mentioned as to a payment increase. Also we were told that the payment would not change. 

We now have a billing statement showing the receipt of the both the escrow shortage and XX/XX/XXXX payment. However, the amount due is more than the normal payment of {$670.00}. We phoned Mr. Cooper again on XX/XX/2022 to inquire about he increase of the monthly payment. We were told the increase was due to insurance and taxes. The increase is {$32.00} per month or {$380.00} per year and there is a reduction of taxes due to age for this property. We were told by Mr. Cooper could not send a new Escrow Payment Notice so we could see why there is an increase in the escrow. 

We asked that our call be escalated to a supervisor because we want to see the calculations used by Mr. Cooper for any increase. We spoke with agent XXXX # XXXX We are sending the normal payment of {$670.00} for the XX/XX/XXXX payment and will need the updated Escrow statement to analyze why Mr. Cooper feels the new payment should be more than {$670.00}. 

This borrower is on a fixed income and needs to ensure any increases are legitimate. 

Thank you

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Diverse Funding Associates LLC
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I got a loan for a XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX for a little over {$9000.00} and was told I could return it within 30 days. I did return it within 30 days and they said everything was fine. Next thing you know it shows up on my credit report as a late payment. I never made one single payment, yet the history shows I paid for 1 year 3 months, then missed a month, then paid two months and then was 120 days past due 5 months later ( then charged off ). This is all entirely bogus, not a single payment was ever made and it was returned within 30 days as stated earlier. 

Following this they sold the debt to DNF associates as a collection, which as I've been told still reports after 7 years... so this bogus situation is really hurting me. It will continue to affect me until something is done to remove not only the falsehood of the entire XXXX XXXX listing in my credit report, but also the collection account from DNF associates. 

( By the way, the DNF balance was around {$270.00}, which wouldn't even make since balance wise with the payments they claimed I made ) I have tried numerous times to dispute this with XXXX XXXX, DNF associates and all 3 credit bureaus. Please help!
