Borrower paid $150 loan fee in cash at closing. Fee was disclosed in HELOC Application Disclosure, but not in HELOC Note. Can we keep this fee or must it be refunded since not disclosed in the note as a Finance Charge?

You may have disclosed the fee in your initial disclosures but you failed to contract for it in your legal agreement. Therefore, IMO, under your legal agreement you have no authority to collect the fee.
