Complaint:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. Also, the creditor of this account, which is Bank of America confirmed that they DO NOT have any physical proof, a signed document with my signature on the account. Not only that, they also confirmed that my SSN was added to the account only in XX/XX/2019, which is IMPOSSIBLE as I have been disputing the account for over 1 year and bank of America did not have even my SSN on records at the time of the application, which again, could have been ANYONE who applied in my name online. 

BOTH XXXX  and XXXX  DELETED IMMediatly the Bank of America account as Bank of america can't provide ANY evidence of this account belonging to me. 

Please finally delete this account, it as been impacting my credit and limiting my life.

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

Complaint:
My student loans were transferred to XXXX XXXX by XXXX XXXX. Whilst and after completing school, my loans were always in deferment or forbearance status until I could get to the point were I could manage repayment. I started repayment of these loans a few months back and noticed my account had reported late payments for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke to an advisor and he tells me had contact with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and was put on a forbearance that lasted a month later XX/XX/XXXX. Which does not sound like the correct way my account was to be handled when I spoke to them I was offered the income driven plan which I have always declined and asked for my account to be put on the forbearance. The advisors I spoke to never did what they had to do on their part and instead noted my account as if I was interested in the income driven plan. I specifically explained I have never been interested in that service or plan. This employees mistake has now caused me issues with my credit because since fedloan logs separate reporting for each individual loan those 2 months that were reported late have become 12 late payments since I had 6 separate loans. This is also unfair because if the loans are separate then they should be reported once just one late payment turns into 6. This needs to change it is very unfair for customers and people who might not be in good economic conditions. They have poorly trained and lazy advisors that end up giving people the wrong information, and incorrectly note accounts. I need this issue to be corrected as soon as possible or I will pursue legal action.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Problem lowering your monthly payments

Complaint:
Over the course of this loan 's repayment period, any and all requests for adjustment of loan repayment were denied. This included requests for a transfer to an income-driven repayment plan. Eventually, the total monthly loan payment of over {$1500.00} was unable to be paid. After this occurrence, while discussing repayment option, I once again asked about repayment options - specifically, income-driven repayment. I was informed that they did, in fact, have such a program, but since I had posted a late payment, I was ineligible. 

In conclusion, it appears that the loan servicer lied about repayment options until I had lost the ability to apply for such programs due to the amount of the monthly payment. 

The monthly payment remains in excess of {$1500.00}.

Pursuant to the FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681C-2 ), PLEASE BLOCK ALL INFORMATION RESULTING FROM IDENTITY THEFT, except as otherwise provided in this Section A, in which a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer identifies as information resulted from an alleged identity theft, NO LATER THAN 4 BUSINESS DAYS after the date of receipt by agency. 
I ask that you comply with the Federal Laws in place, and swiftly and permanently block the accounts, addresses, inquiries and other information that you are reporting listed on the Identity Theft Report List Of Fraudulent Accounts.
