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

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a certified mail with copies of my identification asking Synchrony Bank to rectify an inaccuracy showing on my consumer report. When I was reviewing my consumer file, I noticed account number ending in XXXX is showing a balance on a charged off account. According to the IRS, any cancelled debt or charged off debt is income. I requested Synchrony Bank provide me with XXXX as this account is showing up with a balance on my consumer report. 

I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from Synchrony, stating I am a credit repair organization and they are not going to investigate into the matter. All of this are stall tactics and it is hurting my livelihood as I am trying to resolve negative items that is showing up on my consumer file. 

I've been doing intense research, and learned on consumer rights. According to 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) A ) - a person shall not furnish any information relating to the consumer that believe to be incorrect. 

Attached, you will find the original letter I sent along with the certified postage and the stall tactic letter sent as a response. In addition, the incorrect item reporting on my consumer file. I've also included my forms of identification.

State: MD
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
My father applied for a Navient loan in XXXX. He asked me to co-sign since his credit was destroyed by his lack of employment following XXXX XXXX XXXX I agreed to co-sign following the stipulation that I am removed from the account within XXXX year of payment. Fast forward to XXXX, I asked to be removed from the account due to the fact that I was purchasing a home and it was factored in the debt-to-income ratio. He was unable to do so because the account did not have XXXX consecutive months of on-time payments. We are now in XXXX and I applied for another mortgage. In addition, paid {$180.00} per month over the years to be eligible for removal from the account. Navient denied the request because the payments were not coming from his account. 

I am an XXXX XXXX member with a XXXX XXXX. I explained that I can not stop making the payments, and just solely leave it up to him since I am on the account. I must maintain my XXXX and career outlook by ensuring the payments are made. The account has had on-time payments since XX/XX/XXXX. This is well over the one-year requirement for a co-signer to be removed from the account. However, now Navient is stating that he has to make payments on his own without my assistance. I can not risk this due to my career and XXXX XXXX Navient should reconsider this policy. Especially for individuals in the service. Or, make this abundantly clear at the beginning of the cosigning process. I feel as if I am stuck in this financial situation until the loan is paid off or I am retired from service.
