Complaint:
I am a FEDLOAN Servicing customer applying for my student loans to be forgiven under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. I have been advised conflicting information by several representatives during the course of me submitting my application. Most recently, I recently correspondence on XX/XX/2021 from FEDLOAN after a representative from FEDLOAN explicitly advise me to submit another application for forgiveness on XX/XX/2021, stating that " NOT ELIGIBLE : You or your employer signed the PSLF Form before you made your 120th qualifying payment. You must make your 120th qualifying payment before you submit your form. Since it looks like you have since made your 120th qualifying payment, you can now apply for forgiveness. Complete and return an updated PSLF Form. Make sure you and your employer sign and date the form in Sections 2 and 4 with the current date. On this same date I received correspondence stating " You're eligible for forgiveness Congratulations, you made 120 qualifying payments on 2 of your 2 loans. Unless you have requested a forbearance, you should continue to make payments until you receive confirmation of forgiveness '' I resubmitted my application as advised using the current date, which was XX/XX/2021 only to be advised by another FEDLOAN customer service representative that I would need to submit another application dated on or after my billing due date, which is XX/XX/2021.I have submitted that information again today. However, after fighting with FEDLOAN for years to have many of my qualifying payments acknowledged I do not feel confident that my application will be processed.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: DE
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Trouble during payment process
Sub-issue: Payment process

Complaint:
The amount of interest due does not take into consideration the principal amount that was paid during that month. When payments are made during the month towards principal, the interest due should be applied as a portion to the actual interest and remaining to the principal. I have had XXXX with XXXX XXXX and they follow this practice. Here Citizens Bank is taking advantage of the customer and making a profit from illegal practice. 
Payment due amount is calculated based on the outstanding amount. But outstanding amounts vary throughout the month due to the incremental number of payments made towards the principal. 
In the XXXX statement issued on XXXX, Principal balance - {$200000.00} Minimum amount due - {$1300.00} Payment due date XX/XX/2023 Total payments made between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX - {$78000.00} Total advance - {$17000.00} When Citizens applied the interest of {$1300.00}, the outstanding amount in the account had substantially reduced by amount of {$61000.00}. This is almost a 30 % reduction. But Citizens applied the full amount to the interest without splitting between interest due and principal. 
To be clear, interest {$1300.00} can not be considered as the right amount ( due to the payments ). In this case, the interest should be calculated while applying the payment and the remaining amount should be applied to the outstanding principal. Again, XXXX XXXX and other banks do follow this practice and Citizens is ignoring this component of calculation thus taking advantage of the customer.

State: MI
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
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:
On XX/XX/2023, I sent a letter to the three credit bureaus concerning several accounts that were fraudulently reported and must be removed from my credit report. Unfortunately, I have not received any response from the credit bureaus so far. According to the 15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2, a consumer reporting agency is required to block the reporting of any information in a consumer 's file that the consumer identifies as resulting from alleged identity theft within four business days of receiving such information. It has now been 30 days, and the credit bureaus are in clear violation of this law, as I am a victim of identity theft.

I urgently request the immediate deletion of these fraudulent accounts from my consumer report. These accounts should not be furnished on my report, as they are in direct violation of my rights as a federally protected consumer. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b, the permissible purposes of consumer reports do not apply in this situation, as I never provided any written consent to any consumer reporting agency to report such information on my consumer report. This lack of consent constitutes identity theft, and it is my right as a consumer to have these accounts removed immediately. 

I expect prompt action on this matter to rectify the violation of my rights as per the law. Your cooperation in resolving this issue promptly will be greatly appreciated. Thank you
