Complaint narrative:
The reporting of this Inquiries/charge-off/collection account is inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable. The furnisher has failed to provide legally required documentation proving the validity of the debt, the amount claimed, or my liability for it. Continuing to report unverifiable and inaccurate information on my credit file is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and my consumer rights. This account is being reported in a manner that is misleading and damaging to my creditworthiness, and I dispute its accuracy in its entirety.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue with the loan closing
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
We have had a home loan with Freedom Mortgage ( loan # XXXX ) and never missed a payment nor was late for two years. They increased the payment and we could no longer afford to stay in the home. We listed it for sale and found a buyer. We moved out ; then the buyer fell through. Since we could not afford the new rent and the mortgage, we applied for a financial help with the company & explained we were selling. They took information over the phone & then kept sending letters for us to upload information to the website. The links to the letter page never functioned and the page to upload documentation to the Loss Mitigation page never worked. I took screenshots & reported it. 
They never fixed it. We now have another buyer but need to do a short sale. I got the information needed. They still do not have the links fixed. I added our realtor as Third Party Authorized. Each time we call, we both get put on hold ( today over 1 hour & 20 Minutes then the staff person hung up on me ). 
I call and the automated system quotes the wrong phone number. 
They won't let the realtor settle the account or submit documentation. 
They won't send me nor her the payoff amount NOR a third party authorization form. 
We have both sent over three emails requesting information and have requested it over the phone. No one is helping. Everytime you call, you have to tell the whole story from the beginning. For over a month I have tried to communicate with them to no avail. At this point, contacting this agency & my state attorney general is all I know to do.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment to be 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. EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 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! Update the late payments from my consumer reports.
