Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX listed a debt collection on my report for an amount of {$14000.00} for a car loan. On XX/XX/XXXX I wrote to XXXX, I wrote to Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX, And on XX/XX/XXXX I  wrote to XXXX. I wrote to them sending them proof that this account must be deleted from my credit report because it was reporting inaccurate information. And on XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX explaining their investigation procedure. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX   informed me that the information I disputed had been updated. And EQUIFAX NEVER RESPOND TO MY LETTER WITH ANY STATEMENT NOR LETTER. So on XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote to XXXX XXXX requesting a debt validation for this car loan which they say I owe. They sent back a letter stating I need to give them further information from the credit bureaus in which they are the ones reporting this inaccurate information to the bureaus. Shouldn't they have the information that they are reporting on my credit file? So on XX/XX/XXXX I wrote XXXX, EQUIFAX, AND XXXX THE SAME LETTER SENDING THEM PROOF THAT THEY WERE REPORTING MISLEADING AND INACCURATE INFORMATION ON MY CREDIT REPORT FROM XXXX XXXX. After I requested in writing from XXXX XXXX TO VALIDATE THE DEBT IN QUESTIONED. AND THEY HAD NO RECORD OF THIS INFORMATION AND THEY STILL COULD NOT PRODUCE A VALIDATION BEARING MY SIGNATURE. Per FCRA, I requested a debt validation bearing my signature to prove I owe this debt, they have not been able to send this to me. Per the Federal laws, it is my right to validate any debt from a collection agency. I request full removal of this debt associated with any of the credit reporting agencies ASAP

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

Complaint:
Apparently Synchrony Bank is now handling Paypal Credit, a company whose services I have used without a problem for years until recently. They seem to think I joined this year, when in fact I've used Paypal Credit for a number of years now. 
When I try to pay the bill for the account and go to the Paypal Credit website, strangely I can not find any account information, like how much I owe or when it is due much less how to pay at all! There is simply no link, though they claim by going to " wallet '' that I can do just that. I find nothing useful at all. I have used credit cards and paid bills for decades and this is the very worst I have ever seen. 
I have looked and searched and found no useful information and can not imagine why a company like this would create such a useless website with no provision to pay a bill. Of course when I try to call, the automatic recording informs me that " wait times may be longer than usual due to greater than usual call volumes ''. Perhaps they need to hire someone to answer the phone. This is not my problem and I have lost any patience I ever had with a bank that essentially is dysfunctional to the max! 
In good faith I have tried countless times, I have called and spoken to someone who told me to do what I just described, which does not work. Beyond that, just how intuitive is a link saying " wallet '' in terms of " pay your bill '' Does not work for me and even if I try, it still does not work because there is no provision for providing me an amount due, a due date or any other provisions normally found on a credit card statement.

Furthermore, for all my good will ( which is now expired ) attempts to deal with this of course there are, as far as they're concerned, going to be late fees, which I refuse to be responsible for due to their negligence in providing an appropriate means to pay the damned bill.

Company: AES/PHEAA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
I have been paying my DLSCNS loans on a IDR since XXXX. My loans were originally with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX program from XXXX. Then cornerstone took over my loans in XXXX, of course I have no say in any of this, and they had my loans until XXXX. In XXXX another hand over occurred to Fedloan servicing. Back in XXXX, while with Cornerstone, I asked how many qualified payments I had on my account. I was curious, as I have been paying every month since XXXX. Cornerstone came back to me saying they were having trouble accessing the information from my previous loan servicer, XXXX XXXX. I said to them, " How is that my problem? You are a financial institution, and anytime you take over someones loan, you would naturally have all the information that goes with it? ". They said they would need sometime to go back through their records to follow up my query. Not too long after that phone conversation, my loans were sent to FedLoan servicing. 
The minute my loans went to the new servicer FedLoan, I questioned them straight away, about how many qualified payments I have. I got a response from them on XX/XX/XXXX, saying that I had XXXX qualified payments thus far. I immediately rang them up, and said that was incorrect, as I have been paying since XXXX, without any interruptions, and my wages are always certified every year, and no forbearance taken out. I was told that they would expedite my question and I would here from them in 3 business days. That was back in XX/XX/XXXX, I have followed up another time, and still no response. 
My loans should be nearing forgiveness, instead they tell me I have another 16 years to go. That would take me to XXXX, meaning I have been paying loans for 36 years. There is something fundamentally wrong with these Income driven repayment plans. 
I require any help that is possible, to get the correct and just outcome.
