Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
My XXXX account is showing five of my XXXX   accounts as delinquent even though I've checked with XXXX and none of my accounts are delinquent. All of my loans have been in deferment/grace period/forbearance because I was in school for the last three years. The dollar amount for each account is as follows : {$2000.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX ; {$3400.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX ; {$4200.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX ; {$4200.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX ; and {$52000.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX. All of this accounts are in good standing with XXXX  and they are telling me they will do an inquiry which will take 21 days until the correct report is sent to the credit bureaus. I wanted to refinance my loans but am ineligible for all private loans now because of this issue. It does not seem like it will get resolved until at least a few months and in this time I will be forced to continue to pay the high federal loan interest rates.

Complaint:
I have Nieman Marcus/capital one credit card and I pay the bills every month regularly. we receive paper bills from mail. my account no with them is XXXX. 

I didn't receive my paper bill in XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX be lost by mail XXXX ), so didn't make a payment in XXXX as I was not aware of any payments. But when I received the bill in XX/XX/XXXX, I paid in full around {$160.00}. but they charged me interest of around {$36.00} for late payment. I wrote a letter to them explaining the situation that I never received the bill in XXXX and I paid it off when I received the XX/XX/XXXX bill. I even called and explained to them the situation. But they would not cancel the interest charges. so I closed the account in XX/XX/XXXX. 

But to my surprise, they reported me to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as delayed payment. and kept on charging me interest which is now {$110.00}. I called capital one again on XX/XX/XXXX and tried to work out with them about deleting the late payment and cancelling the interest charges. they told me that even though they understand the issue here but they wont chage the credit reporting or cancel the interest. 

we are a well to do family and my husband is a XXXX, so we don't have issues paying our bills. we always paid our bills regularly without any default. in this scenario, we didn't receive the bill in the mail to pay it off. 

so please help me to get the late payment off my XXXX record and cancel all the interest charges on the closed account

Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the 3Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you.

However, if they failed to do so, they are obliged to delete the items which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely.

Company: Klarna AB

Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Problem when making payments

Complaint:
On XXXX, XXXX, 2020 I purchased a XXXX computer and queried about financial assistance to which I was referred to " Klarna, '' as a credit company they could use to set up payments for a total of {$1300.00} The installments were to be {$81.00} to be made on or before the XXXX of each month, and so far I have made three payments for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX without trouble. Days before XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to make another payment online using the same method as I did on the other three payments. The same " username '' and " password '' would not get me in to the payment section of the website. Then a menu came up, requesting that I re-establish my account, and start all over with a new " username '' and " password. '' It requests only my email and indicates that it will send me a code. The code shows up in my email but when I enter it on their website, code entry field it just takes me back to re-registering an account again. I go in circles and get nowhere on this site. So of course, I try to pay over the phone but the representatives on the phone say they are unable to take payments. I asked them to mail me a statement and I would pay the entire balance just to end business with them. It has been two weeks and nothing. They were nice enough to take the late payment fee off, during the conversation today, XX/XX/2020, at XXXX XXXX. 

The whole issue is, I simply want to do right and pay them and I don't know how, and I don't want it to have a negative impact on my XXXX XXXX, or incur more late fees. I have never run into a situation like this with any creditors so I am stuck, wanting to resolve this. I want to pay my remaining balance, {$1100.00} XXXX the original {$1100.00} - {$25.00} late fee the representative was kind enough to take off, after the quote ) in full. Again, the ending balance as of XXXX, XXXX, 2020 XXXX XXXX XXXX is {$1100.00}. 

I need some help with this one, yours, XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint:
I have repeatedly notified EQUIFAX that they have violated my Consumer rights multiple times under 15 USC 1681 ( B ) ( C ), 15 U.S.C. 1666b ( a ), 12 CFR 1016.4a and 15 USC 1602 ( b ) just to name a few, and have requested for them to remove the disputed items which are in direct violation of my rights as a consumer, and they have refused to respond or acknowledge my request. I have sent all notices via certified mail, both to the CEO and the dispute department, requesting them to resolve this unlawful violation within 15 days, and no response has been given. These credit bureaus seem to think they can just violate our rights at will, and then ignore us when we attempt to lawfully hold them accountable for it. Congress put the United States Code and XXXX XXXX XXXX  in place for this very reason, to protect consumers from corrupt corporations such as EQUIFAX trampling all over our rights in order to create a monopoly over credit scores. This is both unlawful, unconstitutional, and most importantly, unrighteous.
