Complaint:
XXXX solicits consumers who sign up for their credit report services with credit card offers from their " advertising partners '' where XXXX states they have used their advertising partners approval criteria and information from my credit report to present an offer to apply for a credit card where XXXX presents a percentage chance of approval or gives a " matched to you '' rating for the offer, as the highest possible chance of approval. 

Three times I've applied for cards via applications that XXXX has presented to me with the highest rating for approval as " matched to me, '' and three times, the most recently of which being by Wells Fargo, I've been declined, with the specific reason for each declination being information contained on my XXXX credit report. 

This has resulted in 3 recent inquiries on my credit report, which has lowered my credit score, and that has resulted in a lowering of my credit rating from " very good '' to just " good. '' What XXXX and their " advertising partners '' are doing is misleading consumers into generating inquires of their credit report, which makes money for XXXX, and costs consumers by damaging their credit score, instead of opening a new account, which would improve their credit score.

State: TX
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Don't agree with the fees charged

Complaint:
I am disputing the past due amount that has been calculated for a private loan. Despite multiple attempts, Navient has declined to explain how they initially calculated the past due amount which now stands at XXXX ( I have brought the amount down with continued payments. ) I am also disputing the recent delinquency placed on the loan. I have continued to make payments on the disputed loan amount due. At no point have I stopped making payments. 

I have not been able to get answers to my direct inquiries to Navient. Rather than answer my requests for verification of debt and clarity of how past due amount was calculated, Navient has harassed me with phone calls and other letters with threats of delinquency and credit reporting to maliciously harm me financially. This is reprehensible behavior given my consistent payment record and the recent events ( weather disaster in state/pandemic ) that have so greatly impacted many individuals like myself. 

I have made consistent and accurate payments on my loans yet Navient has sought to exploit the debt owed on this particular private loan. I have made every attempt to pay, but also have the right to verify that what I am being asked to pay is fair and accurate. 

In an attempt to communicate my desire to resolve the issues with this private loan, I responded to a request in XXXX sent concerning settling the loan for an agreed amount. The letter ended up being false and deceptive. Navient did not respond to my attempt to settle the loan via phone. They then placed the loan in delinquency. 

Due to the deceptive, predatory, and hostile customer service of Navient it is nearly impossible to communicate with them directly. Every attempt that I have made to engage with them directly has always resulted in a negative confrontation. My goal is to pay my loan debt off under reasonable and fair terms based on my loan agreements. Navient is a hinderance to this process. Logging that attempts to contact someone was made is not sufficient evidence to justify Navient 's actions but a way to give cover for their abuse of borrowers by the use of delinquency and credit reporting.

Complaint:
XXXX Credit  card sent a new card to someone with an increased limit {$1400.00}. I reported that I did not request nor receive a card and I had reported more than once for them to close the card in XXXX and in XXXX. They refused to closed the card and I did not know this until, they billed me for an annual fee on a card that was supposed to be closed. Then they mail a card with an increase to someone in XX/XX/XXXX. 
My home owners insurance trippled in XX/XX/XXXX due to XXXX reporting to the credit bureau that I was late or had not paid the annual fee. This blindsided me as I had told them last year to close this card because I did not need it and was not using it. My home owners insurance increased from {$1200.00} per year to {$3000.00} per year due to them reporting false information to the credit bureau which caused my credit score to decrease drastically, especially transunion went to XXXX. This really hurt my credit score and caused major financial hardship to me. 
1. I want them to eliminate the fee which they charged to a closed account.

2. Correct this information with the credit reporting agencies.
