Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I have opened complaints with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, CFPB and as of yesterday wrote the White House. 

The Cares Act when executed stopped all Federal Student Loans payments and placed them into COVID Forbearance. Consequently, this reflected on credit reports in some situations as not reporting and on others as Late, see attached. The major issue is that as a personal consumer I never requested the Department of Education, XXXX XXXX or XXXX to place my loans in deferment. Once I noticed the ACH not being withdrawn from my account, I contacted XXXX XXXX  and requested payments be reinstated. Recently, my loans were transferred to a new service provider and with the extension of the Cares Act 0 % interest thru XX/XX/XXXX, they stopped my payment without my authorization. 

This is having a negative effect on my credit report. A consumer should have to request forbearance or hardship, loans should not be placed into deferment unless requested. I have attached my XXXX  history and I have opened disputes with all the Credit Bureaus and XXXX  XXXX continues to update inaccurately. I have an open dispute for the posting of the XX/XX/XXXX Payment that never posted prior to transfer to XXXX. 

I believe COVID Forbearance should be removed from any credit report as there was no authorization to stop payments. They just stopped. For an individual like myself that caught it and reinstated payments, especially! 

Thank you for your time and consideration. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

Complaint:
Applied for a XXXX XXXX and they forgot to include my large down payment on the loan. This further delayed my loan process and because of this I was advised to go the conventional loan route to speed up the loan process.

They delayed another two weeks, then waited till the week of closing to finished the paperwork to send to the underwriter and contacted me to give them the number to contact my HR and verify employment ( which I gave them already ). Now, they are refusing to release the VA case number associated with the loan. Without this, my new lender can't initiate a XXXX XXXX  unless Freedom Mortgage releases it.
