Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint:
In  XXXX   XXXX  the finance company on my car  Prestige Financial i n Utah offered me a special offer of  XXXX , my normal payment is  XXXX . I agreed to take the lower payment. When my banking account was charged it was overcharged in the amount of  XXXX . I called Prestige immediately to resolve the issue which they flat out refused to credit my account for their mistake. I called my bank and reported it as fraud. I have prove via e-mail on the offer. Ever since then my account has not been accurate. They have been applying my payments for  XXXX  to the payment in  XXXX . They claim I missed  XXXX  's payment. Every time I call I get some rude person on the phone or my account  manager   XXXX   XXXX  refuses to speak with me or go over my account or billing. She only responds via email. For  XXXX  and  XXXX   XXXX  my account manager decides to do a deferment on my account, with my next payment not due till  XXXX . I did n't really want the deferment as I wanted to make my payments as usual. The company has my car repossessed on  XXXX . Now I 'm trying to get my car back but again it 's the complete run around and they do n't even have my billing correct. Every time it 's a different amount that I somehow owe. This lender is the worst. They are saying I owe currently  XXXX . This includes my payment not due till  XXXX  which again today is  XXXX . Minus the  XXXX  payment of  XXXX  that leaves  XXXX  they are saying I owe for  XXXX . I have an e-mail clearly stating that from the last payment I made of  XXXX  in  XXXX  that  XXXX  of that  XXXX  cleared  XXXX  and I now had a credit on my account of  XXXX  dollars. None of their billing ever makes sense and the account  manager  never is accurate with her figures. If she ca n't calculate math she needs to find a new profession.

Complaint:
A fair resolution would be the removal of all unauthorized inquiries. These fraudulent inquiries do not benefit nor were they authorized by me and according to 15 USC 1681 c-2 if I identified these inquiries as fraudulent you have to block and remove them. On several occasions I have sent this bureau a copy of my social security card, FTC report and Drivers license and they refuse to acknowledge that they are reporting several fraudulent inquiries that are defamation to my character. It is also fair to remove all of the derogatory accounts that this entity is unable to verify by furnishing the documents with my original signature.

Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
Im a little confused. Two months ago, I disputed the following previously deleted account as being inaccurate, and you deleted it because the furnisher agreed with me. 
Creditor : XXXX Account : XXXX Reason : FRAUD {$1700.00} But today, I went online and checked my credit and noticed that your company put the previously deleted account that was deleted back onto my credit without notifying me. From my understanding, if you re-insert a previous item, you must notify me at least five days after placing this item back on my credit report. So why was I not notified? Because of your actions, my credit score dropped by over 30 points, causing me to pay a higher interest rate on my loan. In addition, I read an act on the FTC website stating that your action is a violation which carries a fine. 

Please delete this previously deleted account within 10 days of this letter or I will file complaints with the FTC, XXXX, and attorneys general in my state and your state. I will be also talking with a consumer rights attorney regarding this matter. 

Not only that you have XXXX is steady reporting inaccurate information into my credit file. I have never done business with XXXX or any company they represent. I am a victim of identity theft and the accounts XXXX hold are a direct result of this. XXXX has refused to verify these accounts with me so how are they verifying them with you?

Company: Zions Debt Holdings
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Telecommunications debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On or about XXXX, XXXX, I sold my home at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX. At the time of the sale, I had XXXX home monitoring service and 'smart home ' equipment. The buyer, XXXX XXXX, called XXXX to transfer my contract to them, and rather than transfer my contract as I had instructed XXXX and XXXX XXXX to do, XXXX created a new account for her using my equipment and did not inform me. 

After a period of approximately 6 months, I received a collections call from XXXX telling me I owed approximately {$650.00}. I disputed this and refused to pay given that there was call evidence that XXXX XXXX properly instructed XXXX to transfer the contract and not start a new one. Unbeknownst to XXXX XXXX, the new contract was created. 

During my dispute and refusal to pay XXXX during this period, I filed a consumer protection complaint with the Texas Atty. General 's Office, complaint ID XXXX. In addition, I informed XXXX over the phone that should they continue, I would file a claim in small claims court and ask for compensatory damages. 

Following this, XXXX ceased trying to collect on this debt at approximately XX/XX/XXXX. 

Starting approximately XX/XX/XXXX, Zion Debt Holdings LLC informed me that they had purchased this outstanding debt and were now attempting to collect. I explained the situation to them and started a dispute. They maintained that it was their right to collect. I explained to them that should they continue this course of action I would pursue legal remedy. Nothing more came from this. 

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification from my XXXX XXXX credit monitoring app that my score had dropped significantly. Upon investigation, this {$660.00} debt was marked as charged off by Zion Debt Holdings. 

ZDH has no right to mark this as a chargeoff as this was an improper debt to collect in the first place. XXXX wrote off this debt and ceased attempts to collect once it was determined that evidence was not in their favor and that they were, in fact, in the wrong. Zion purchased this debt from XXXX inappropriately and attempted to collect even after informed of this situation, then proceeded to file against my credit which I have maintained a literal perfect payment history. I have NEVER missed a payment for any debt. 

Zion 's actions are malicious and intentional as I told them to pound sand and that I would pursue legal action should they not cease their attempts. I will be exploring legal action against ZDH.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: TX
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:
My loan was consolidated without my permission by either Nelnet or XXXX in XXXX after I had paid on the loan since XXXX. I was told by XXXX that they were taking my loan over and they would put me on an income-driven repayment plan that would forgive any remaining debt in year seven after they took the plan over. I was told this was at the Department of Education 's direction, and I did not file an application or ask for this. I only found out speaking with XXXX, who says the loan was sent to them as a consolidated loan, that the loan had been consolidated. I called XXXX XXXX ( XXXX contact at XXXX ) and spoke with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told they do not have any contract or recorded phone call to prove I made the consolidation. He recommended I file a fraud complaint with Studentaid.gov. I have made three complaints related to this loan, and they closed them all in a couple of days without investigating them. XXXX or Nelnet submitted fraudulent applications which have my typed name on them and concocted information about my address and references. No one seems to know which company did the consolidation for certain, and I can not find a lender on either of the applications, but Nelnet Loan Services is listed as the loan to consolidate, which makes no sense because the loan was consolidated at the inception, and I had paid off the separate loans so there was not more than XXXX loan to consolidate. Nelnet or XXXX committed fraud, and no one I have spoken to has helped to resolve the matter. I have also paid over $ XXXX on a $ XXXX loan and still owe over $ XXXX due to the deceitful tactics of Nelnet, who first held the loan, and XXXX, who took the loan over from them. I have attached all of the documents I have related to the loan.
