Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: AZ
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan

Complaint:
I have had student loans that first were with Sallie Mae and later moved to Navient. I attended school for the loans with Navient in XX/XX/XXXX. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX I struggled to make payments on this loan due to being a stay at home parent with my spouse in military service. I was only ever offered hardship forbearance as a resolve to the payments. This causing my balance to continue to increase with interest fees. I went back to school in summer XX/XX/XXXX obtaining a student loan from a different lender, XXXX. When I stopped attending school I was contacted by this lender for payment options. They asked multiple questions and even though I now had income I did not previously have they explained that I qualified for a income driven repayment plan. This option would avoid additional cost being added to the balance but I would need to contact them each year to re-certify my qualification. They completed my application which the Department of Education applied to both my loans with XXXX and Navient. This income driven repayment option was never offered even when my family was qualifying for state assistance programs that Navient inquired about while applying for the hardship forbearance. Since starting the income driven repayment I have had to dispute credit reporting by Navient as well in XX/XX/XXXX when rather than decreasing my balance they reported an increase in my balance. This caused my credit score 70 points and when corrected my score only improved 24 points.

State: CA
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
How are you? I hope all is well. I am writing to you because I recently reviewed my latest credit report and I found a few negative items that I have NOT confirmed or accepted to be accurate. 

Id like to ensure that you have and ONLY RETAIN current, TRUE, CORRECT, COMPLETE, and MANDATED REPORTED information per FCRA regulations. I DEMAND, as it is my lawful RIGHT ( s ) to do so, that you DELETE all information that is deficient of any condition, mentioned above Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. 

Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate. 
C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to XXXX, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the XXXX XXXX compliance standards. 

Also as stated in the XXXX Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. 

Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. 

You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRAXXXX XXXX XXXX compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB XXXX FTC and my Attorney General.

Complaint:
It occurs that my credit report has been compromised. Again, I was going through my files & noticed these accounts that do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any information or accounts which were found to be opened due to identity theft. The disputed accounts do not belong to my file. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these accounts. 
XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1900.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance : {$670.00} ; XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) XXXX Balance : {$1100.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$200.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$440.00} If you feel there is a possibility these accounts belong to me I will require all documentation which bear my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that these accounts are 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the accounts are verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled immediately.

Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
Hello, There is a serious problem with Synchrony bank. I had 7 different store cards and credit cards with Synchrony bank. They closed them suddenly in one day. Some of them had small balances and they reported to the credit report them as " settled amount. Please read the info below ; -I have XXXX credit score. Using Synchrony cards everyday since 2016 and pay full balance every month. 
-I never had any late payment with Synchrony or any other bank card, loans etc. Everything is on time. 
-I have a very clear credit report with only % 8 utilization that are always paid in full every month. 

2 days ago I woke up with bunch of emails. Synchrony closed all of my accounts for nothing. Called customer service and they were even confused why it is happened.

Amazon store card {$590.00} balance of {$20000.00} limit. 

Paypal Mastercard {$350.00} balance of {$20000.00} limit. 

XXXX XXXX {$1.00} balance of {$10.00} limit Synchrony car care {$1400.00} balance of {$10.00} limit XXXX XXXX XXXX {$0.00} balance of {$3500.00} limit Paypal credit $ XXXX of {$5000.00} limit XXXX card {$1200.00} balance of {$6000.00} limit ( They approved this card 2 days before closing all the accounts ) Now serious problem starts here ; Cards with balances reported to my credit reports as ''settled amount '' I've got an email from XXXX XXXX XXXX says ; " It looks like you settled an account with a lender. When you settle an account, you negotiate a lump-sum payment with your lender to pay back part of what you owe so that the rest is forgiven. '' For those balances statement not even closed yet. I did not even get the statements to pay the balances.

-I never wanted to close the accounts.

-I never attempted to not pay the balances or never attempted to negotiate for settlement. 

I always pay the full amount after they send me the statement. 

I really need an assist with this situation since it damaged my credit score so bad. I'm in the middle of renting a house and I can't right now. 
I've never ever experienced anything like this before. 

Thank you.
