Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
Upon obtaining my annual credit report, I requested a debt verification from all 3 credit bureau in regards to a charged off account from XXXX XXXX XXXX that was listed on my report. I sent an e-mail to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for verification as this was an unfamiliar account that I had not seen before on my credit report. I received no response back the same week however on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had hoped that the letter would provide any documents to validate this account however, the letter simply stated what was on my actual credit report and only listed when the account was opened along with when the account was charged off. 

Per XXXX XXXX XXXX letter, the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and was charged off on XX/XX/XXXX. The letter also stated if any inaccurate information was listed, that I should contact the XXXX credit bureaus directly to dispute and resolve. 
With that information, On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a notarized letter requesting validation on this account listed under XXXX XXXX XXXX to Experian, XXXX & XXXX. After sending the letters, I received no response back in 10 days. I decided to write a follow-up letter to all 3 CRA on XX/XX/XXXX requesting validation of account once again. As the days went by, I received no letters back from any of the CRA so on XX/XX/XXXX, I sent another follow-up letter requesting validation. Keep in mind, this was my 3rd attempt in contacting the credit bureaus in hopes that I would get any sort of answer back to assist in this issue. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter each from both XXXX and Experian. Below is what was listed on the letters that were sent to me XXXX = Stated that they are currently processing my previously submitted dispute and will not be conducting further investigation into this particular account at this item. 

Experian Did not provide any documentation but rather just listed terms and explanation on how the verification process works. I had already sent them 3 detailed letters requesting validation however this was the only letter I received from them. 

XXXX  As of XX/XX/XXXX, I have not heard back or received any answers via mail, e-mail or telephone.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: AZ
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:
Graduated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX University with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Began repayment after graduation and have paid every month without missing. 
Worked at non-profit from XXXX thru XXXX In XX/XX/XXXX applied for loan forgiveness after working in non profit for 10+ years when the program was first available. Had sent employment certifications multiple times, with acknowledgement of receipt. Shortly after submitting all employment verification I received a short letter that I was not eligible due to the wrong type of government loans. Upon calling Navient to follow up I was told that I could start over with the count if I changed my loan. I spoke with a representative that I had been paying 14 years and another 10 would put me at the end of my loan. Navient offered no solution, no help through the process. I was never informed it was a non-qualifying loan. 

XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX I called Navient at XXXX and Spoke with XXXX XXXX I let her know with the waiver, I would be reapplying for the PSLF. I requested a refund for the payment amounts due to COVID forbearance eligibility. She affirmed I could request a refund and even stated the date would be from XXXX XXXX. She told me this was due to the disaster forbearance and calculated the amount from XX/XX/XXXX to present to be {$6100.00}. She confirmed my address. She then went on to tell me immediately upon the refund Navient would be reporting the account as delinquent and since it was for the given timeframe it would immediately be report to the credit bureaus for being greater than 90 days delinquent and would have a 6 % fee for delinquency of about {$500.00} which would be due immediately. For the fear that Navient insured, I held off on getting my refund for payments. 

My loans have been transferred to federal loans with a consolidation date of XX/XX/XXXX. My PSLF application was acknowledged as received XX/XX/XXXX. I am currently awaiting a loan count ( which should be around XXXX with the waiver ; XXXX over the XXXX due ) and forgiveness. With fear of doing something wrong again or missing a step I have followed up with XXXX XXXX and with legal counsel. XXXX XXXX rep told me I was misinformed by Navient and owed a refund- that I never should have been told that due to the disaster forbearance. 

I, like many borrowers, have been very misled and misinformed by Navient. I have tried to follow processes but offered no help and blatantly lied to. I am requesting a refund of overpayment on loans as I completed my 120 payments in XX/XX/XXXX and worked with two qualifying employers. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act. The account below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy a d confidentially under 15 USC 1681. 

Account XXXX XXXX  has violates my rights. 

15 U.S. Code 1681 ( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

15 U.S. Code 1692g ( b ) If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. Collection activities and communications that do not otherwise violate this subchapter may continue during the 30-day period referred to in subsection ( a ) unless the consumer has notified the debt collector in writing that the debt, or any portion of the debt, is disputed or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor. Any collection activities and communication during the 30-day period may not overshadow or be inconsistent with the disclosure of the consumers right to dispute the debt or request the name and address of the original creditor. 

According to the FRCA the term " Investigative consumer report '' means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information.

They stated my account was verified but how is that possible if they did not do a proper investigation according to the law. Also, every piece of the account are still not reporting 100 % Accurate. And according to the FRCA 15 USC 1681, everything has to be 100 % Accurate. I have the credit report showing the inaccuracies.
