Before you fret, I would call your mortgage company to see if they even reported it. Whenever you are facing trouble making payments, DO NOT avoid staying in close communication with the creditor. Many companies are willing to work with you if they know your intention is to make good on the payment. And they may exend your due date.Since I do not know the whole situation, I will mention that most mortgages have a 15 day grace period from the due date before a late fee is added. Was your payment 30 days past the actual agreed on date, or past the extension time?
