Complaint narrative:
My account with the company and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company and 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 reported in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed 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.

This company 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

Complaint narrative:
Currently, property in question has XXXX XXXX  and HELOC. Owners divorced ex husband was ordered to pay HELOC, he did not pay. We jointly listed house for sale after foreclosure was filed in XX/XX/2024. My foreclosure attorney, had mediation for foreclosure on XX/XX/2024, which he informed Plaintiff 's attorney house was under contract and closing date was XX/XX/2024. The same day the loan was transferred to a different loan servicer XX/XX/2024. We have been trying to get a payoff number so we close on the home. The new servicer is refusing to give payoff, although everytime I call spoke to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and many other promise payoff by the end of day on recorded line, it never comes then when I call back they tell me none of those people work there and the phone extensions they gave are incorrect. I believe given the date of transfer on mediation date, they are attempting to steal home equity by not producing the payoff scaring of the buyer and losing the sale so they can take the home in foreclosure. Mortgage companies invloved are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Select Portfolio Servicing.
