1 ) On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I mailed my monthly mortgage payment to Citi Mortgage. I mistakenly sent {$3500.00} instead of the correct amount of {$3800.00}. 
2 ) Citi Mortgage cashed my check on XXXX XXXX, 2016. 
3 ) On XXXX XXXX, 2016 Citi Mortgage mailed a mortgage notice that stated " Our records indicate your mortgage payment is overdue and we have not received it ''. 
4 ) I was traveling out of state on business XX/XX/XXXX. 
5 ) I first opened and read the mortgage late notice and statement the evening of XXXX XXXX, 2016. On the statement it shows an amount due of {$7700.00}. this amount includes the XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payments of {$3800.00} and a late fee of {$15.00}. THIS STATEMENT IS DECEPTIVE, CONFUSING, AND MISLEADING. Citi Mortgage had received and cashed my partial payment of {$3500.00}. 
6 ) XXXX XXXX, 2016 at XXXX XXXX. XXXX on I called the Citi Mortgage Customer Service Department. I was told the conversation was being recorded. The Customer Service Representative agreed to eliminate the {$110.00} late fee due to our perfect prior payment history. I was instructed to mail the {$300.00} XX/XX/XXXX balance and the XX/XX/XXXX payment of {$3800.00}. I offered to make the payment by credit card and they refused. I mailed the {$4100.00} payment and my on-line checking account record shows the check was deposited XXXX XXXX, 2016. 
7 ) Citi Mortgage mailed a Default Notice dated XXXX XXXX, 2016. I received and opened the Default Notice on XXXX XXXX, 2016. The notice states : " We have notified a credit bureau about a late payment, missed payment, or other default on your account ''. CITI MORTGAGE DAMAGED OUR CREDIT LESS THAN ONE DAY AFTER I LEARNED OF THE {$300.00} SHORT PAY AND AGREED WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SETTLE THE MATTER. 
8 ) As instructed, I mailed a letter of complaint to Citi Mortgage with all of this information. Their XXXX XXXX, 2016 letter of reply refuses to change the status of our credit bureau report. My XXXX XXXX credit rating has gone from XXXX to XXXX. THIS IS UNFAIR AND UNETHICAL. 
9 ) I request the assistance of the CFPB to correct this situation and to help me clear my record.
