Consumer Narrative
Our loan was previously serviced by XXXX. They fraudulently assessed fees on to our account and did not apply payments to our account. We went to court about all of this and the fees were removed but the credit report was never updated. In XXXX of XXXX, XXXX took over the loan. At the time they took over the loan XXXX XXXX showed the account was 2 months behind. So every payment they received from us, they would apply to the previous month because their records showed we were behind. The account was not 2 months behind. They never applied our XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX payment to the account. We have been trying to refinance our mortgage and take cash out to remodel our 2nd floor. We have been trying since XX/XX/XXXX. Every mortgage company that says they can help us, ends up not being able to proceed because of all the late marks on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX, I had a conversation with a supervisor from XXXX who did in fact confirm she sees all the fees assessed to the account and then months later they were removed because we took them to court. The supervisor explained to me that they were only responsible for the loan from XX/XX/XXXX through the present. She said if I submitted paperwork showing that the payments were on time they should be able to correct the late marks on their end. She sent me the full mortgage history document and I went through and compared all the payments with the mortgage history. The XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX payments were never applied to the account as a regular payment which is what made the account 2 months behind. I provided XXXX with copies of my bank statement showing the payments were in fact deducted. I submitted an online dispute with all 3 credit bureaus and submitted the information for their review. Not to mention the credit reports are not even up to date. They only show payments through XXXX of XXXX. I need the report updated through XX/XX/XXXX so that my account can reflect 12 months of on time payments and I can refinance and get away from this nightmare. No one will help me. I don't know what else I can do to get this updated or to get the late marks removed from the credit report.
