Consumer complaint received 2019-12-12
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OR
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
XX/XX/2019 I was alerted to attempted identity theft on XX/XX/2019. I have attempted to place a credit freeze on my account with all three credit reporting agencies. XXXX  and XXXX  make this process very simple and I was able to do it immediately over the phone. Experian send me through an automated phone tree and then gives me a long message telling me to to mail all my personal information to Texas. There is no option to speak with a live person at this agency through their customer service line and no option to speak with someone or to request a credit freeze or thaw by phone. I am not comfortable mailing all of my personal information plus if I can not get a freeze placed in a timely manner or lifted in a timely manner it becomes unnecessarily burdensome. 

It appears experian is making this free government mandated service difficult or impossible to use, forcing people into using their paid credit lock service. I am forced to work with experian to protect my identity and essentially being forced to pay them to do so. I do not feel they are meeting the fiduciary requirements of handling my personal information and should not be permitted to continue extorting the American public through their predatory practices.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
Im a XXXX for the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, due to covd19, I called Mr.Cooper to get assistance with my monthly payments. Mr.Cooper gave me an extension on the covd19 payment protection plan until XX/XX/23, they also advise me that I will have 3 options to choose from, when I get ready to resume making my payments, which was to reinstate, extend my past due payments to the end of my loan, or apply for mortgage assistance. I called Mr. Cooper around XX/XX/23 to resume making my payments, and they inform me that the option to extend payments to the end of my loan, was stopped by VA without giving me any notification, so they were going to review me for a disaster modification, it took Mr. Cooper 2 months to tell me I was decline for a disaster modification. I immediately called VA on XX/XX/23, and they inform me that VA still offer extending payments to the end of the loan and that Mr. Cooper can offer me a REFUND MODIFICATION, VA inform me that Mr. Cooper does not want to participate in this program to help homeowners. Why would Mr.Cooper lie to consumers about VA not wanting to help homeowners during this pandemic, with their decision not to extend my payments, I have a balance due of {$25000.00}. I would have never ask to pause my payments with Mr.Cooper, if they are not going to honor the XXXX options given to me when I notified the servicer that I was impacted, I was also current on mortgage and have never missed a payment before I went into an agreement to pause my payments. I thought that this program was passed by the Cares Act to help homeowners during this challenging times, and not put consumers in Foreclosure. The last conversation that I had with Mr.Cooper is to submit another application to be reviewed for a traditional modification with documents, which everyone that will not help me, so now my credit has been impacted and I have a {$250000.00} past due mortgage, all because Mr. Cooper lied about me having the option to extend my payments. Please help me, I don't want to loose my home.

Sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Complaint:
For several years my Student Loan account at XXXX displayed an old, incorrect email address when I checked the contact information. Live operators on the phone also corrected the email address at my request but later the old email would resurface. 

This can be proven in a court of law by examining logs and records at XXXX. 

In XXXX I received a notice from my bank ( not XXXX ) the negative items were on my credit report. XXXX reported me 90 days late on 2 accounts. I had no knowledge they were due. All my loans were in deferment as far as I knew. My credit is good and I always pay on time. Check my history, please. 

XXXX asked me previously to use " paperless '' notifications. Their system failed to perform correctly and caused me real harm in a XXXX point credit score drop. When I check ed with XXXX on the day of the negative credit report, the contact page displayed my old, incorrect email address. I corrected it. 

This can be proven in a court of law by examining XXXX computer logs and records. 
Ironically, my credit history suggests I am correct.

State: NJ
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
For 2 months I have gotten harassing emails stating there is a balance on my account when in fact I'm paid up and and head of schedule. When the first appeared I called customer service to ask about it and the representative could not say why and said a supervisor would get back to me. No one ever did. 

When the second arrived earlier this week I emailed instead to have something in writing and I was told I get the notice because the balance is there but not due. That does not make sense at all. Why all of sudden is a notification being sent that specifically says there is a balance? Of course this is alarming to anyone who takes their financial security seriously. I pay my bills on time and have from day XXXX. I do not understand this intimidation tactic. 

Additionally, they refuse to give details as to why I am ineligible for an interest rate reduction when I have a spotless payment record.
