Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CO
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
Recently received correspondence from CITI following my most recent complaint about this account. The response by their complaint specialist was not true as it relates to my credit reporting for this account. This account continues to report a balance of {$3.00} and per CITI 's guidance I have reached out to all three credit bureaus. Each have confirmed they are reporting the balance that CITI provides and they are not able to report a balance on this account. This is not a credit bureau issue, it's a CITI Cards issue. All three credit bureaus informed me to contact CITI in regards to this balance. Please refer to my attached credit report from XXXX and see page 45. XXXX is reporting a balance on this account. Since then, my XXXX  and XXXX credit profiles has updated to report a balance. After disputing each of them, the balance will reflect to {$0.00} for a few day and then will update again. 

To note, the representatives with the recovery department ( including first line workers and managers ) continues to provide inaccurate information regarding the details of this account. I have called their department multiple times this months and I've been told they can not discuss the balance ; yet, multiple representatives have told me there is a current past due balance for this account and have asked for payment. Recently, I received a letter in the mail dated on XX/XX/2021 ( which is attached to this complaint ) stating CITI has requested all three credit bureaus to delete this account from my credit report. This letter was from an internal dispute through their credit dispute department submitted in XX/XX/2021. However, roughly XXXX XXXX  prior to receive the letter on XX/XX/2021 I spoke to a manager in the recovery department, named XXXX, and she told me the internal credit dispute through CITI was denied and I will be receiving a letter stating such. So, which is accurate? Will this account be removed my credit report or was my dispute denied. I do not know. At this time, this issue has not been resolved through the company, the credit bureaus or CFPB. I have no other method for resolving this account other than further formal means. I am requesting a full delete, apology from CITI Cards.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/, I submitted a request to XXXX XXXX to investigate the accuracy of information being reported to Experian, XXXX and XXXX XXXX Credit Reporting agencies.

No actions were taken to correct the obvious errors in the most recent XXXX credit reports that I have also attached. XXXX has failed at performance when it comes to this consumer loan failing to properly investigate on multiple occasions in accordance with Federal Regulations. This was a Joint acconnt and the XXXX Reports are inconsistent with XXXX and XXXX XXXX review the attached documentation and investigate.

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I had the chance to go over my payment history letter sent from The Department of EducationXXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and it doesnt show a history of late payments on record. My sole purpose in requesting my payment history on my student loans is because I have 9 late payments on my credit reports from XXXX. All late payments listed on my credit reports are dated as follows : 90 Days Late in XXXX XXXX  90 Days Late in XXXX XXXX  120 Days Late in XXXX XXXX 120 Days Late in XXXX XXXX 120 Days Late in XXXX XXXX 120 Days Late in XXXX XXXX 120 Days Late in XXXX XXXX 120 Days Late in XX/XX/XXXX Between XX/XX/XXXX, to XX/XX/XXXX, my student loans were in FORBEARANCE, so I am not understanding why I have late payments shown in XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX on all three of my credit reports. The screenshot attached to this complaint shows that my loans were in FORBEARANCE between XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. THERE SHOULD NOT BE LATE PAYMENTS LISTED ON MY CREDIT REPORTS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD, THIS IS INACCURATE AND IT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED TO POSITIVE PAYMENTS OR DELETED IMMEDIATELY. 

My credit report also shows 90 days late in XX/XX/XXXX ; however, my loans were in FORBEARANCE from XX/XX/XXXX, through XX/XX/XXXX, as shown in the attachments to this complaint. 

If you are not familiar with the term FORBEARANCE it is an option to delay student loan payments in case you are temporarily unable to make your monthly payments. While in FORBEARANCE, your loans will continue to accrue interest. That interest capitalizes or gets added to your balance when your loans switch out of forbearance and back into your payment plan. 

Attached to this complaint is an XXXX  screenshot of the late payments from The Department of EducationXXXX 
This is unacceptable. I have been suffering from this negative payment history for years and each and every time I disputed these negative payments I am told by XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and TransUnion that the information is correct, therefore my rights as a litigious consumer have been violated. 

Since I had to do my own investigation and clearly proved that I DO NOT HAVE LATE PAYMENTS, I respectfully ask that ALL LATE PAYMENTS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONXXXX EITHER BE UPDATE TO POSITIVE PAYMENT HISTORY OR BE REMOVED FROM ALL 3 ( THREE ) CREDIT BUREAUS IMMEDIATELY. 

I have attached the full payment history email sent to me from THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONXXXX  within this complaint so you can see for yourself that I NEVER had a late payment.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Complaint:
I submitted my application to the SAVE program through Nelnet in the beginning of XX/XX/2023. I then heard nothing. 
On XX/XX/2023 I received an email request requesting more financial records in order to approve my request, I responded by email on XX/XX/2023 with all the requested documentation. 
Since then my application has still been processing and my student loans are accruing interest. 
I have requested updates on my SAVE application several times the only update I get is that my application is still processing. 
It has been 4 months. When I have tried to call the wait is so long I can not get through to anyone.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my Experian credit report. The account in question is with XXXX, and the account number is XXXX. 

I have recently discovered that Experian is reporting a late payment for the month of XXXX, which is incorrect. I made two separate payments on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2023, well before the due date. It is puzzling and concerning that this account is being reported as late, despite clear evidence of timely payments.

This reporting discrepancy not only harms my credit standing but also constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, I believe this error violates 15 U.S.C.1681section 2, which mandates the accuracy of information reported to credit bureaus, and 15 U.S.C . Section 1a, which outlines the general requirements for consumer reporting agencies. 

Attached to this complaint is a copy of my bank statement reflecting the transactions on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2023, clearly demonstrating that the payments were made on time.

My credit profile is affected by these penalties, preventing my creditworthiness, due to these companies. I demand proof of the purchasing agreement? Valid Authorization/ proof of alleged debt.
