I had a mortgage with Bank of America and sold my home in 2010. 
I signed closing papers, closed out the mortgage, transferred ownership of the property. 
Bank of America today still has my mortgage reported as open, reporting past due balances in excess of XXXX, negatively impacting my credit. 
I have attempted several contacts directly to BOA, always with the same response, someone will get back to me shortly. Several months later, no one has.
