How Do I Dispute an Error on My Mortgage Account?
Understanding Mortgage Account Disputes
If you notice an error on your home loan or mortgage loan account—such as incorrect charges, misapplied payments, escrow mistakes, or inaccurate reporting—you have the legal right to dispute it. Your mortgage servicer must review your claim and respond within specific timelines set by federal law.

Common Mortgage Account Errors
Errors may include misapplied payments, incorrect late fees, escrow shortages, insurance miscalculations, or inaccurate loan balances. These issues can affect your mortgage program status and your credit if not corrected quickly.
How to Submit a Dispute
You must send a written “Notice of Error” to your mortgage servicer. This letter should include your name, property address, loan number, and a clear explanation of the error. Servicers are required to investigate and respond within a set timeframe.
Where to Send the Dispute
Every servicer has a designated address for error disputes. This address is usually listed on your monthly statement or on the servicer’s website. Sending your dispute to the correct address ensures it is handled properly.
What Happens After You File the Dispute
Your servicer must acknowledge your letter, investigate the issue, and provide a written response. If the error is confirmed, they must correct it and update your mortgage loan records.
Does Filing a Dispute Affect Your Credit?
Submitting a dispute does not harm your credit. In fact, correcting errors can protect your credit score and prevent future issues with your home mortgage.
Bottom Line
If something looks wrong on your mortgage account, act quickly. Federal law gives you strong protections, and your servicer must review and correct legitimate errors.
