The new servicer cannot clearly identify the borrower's original lender or justify the charges, and disputing the error is met with dismissive responses. This reflects a recurring breakdown in payment history and fee accuracy during mortgage servicing transfers.

Mortgage Debt Transferred to Law Firm Without Borrower Notification
