Complaint:
Hi, My name is XXXX XXXX. 

I am writing to complain on Experian for their lack of response and reporting. I have continued to follow every step on removing false accounts that are reporting and they have yet to comply. They have exceeded the 30 days multiple times and at this point, the issue has not been resolved. They keep reporting accounts that do not belong to me. I have mailed several letters via certified mail, that are dated, that have everything listed in detail, that have everything required and they still are not doing their job in removing their items. 

The following are some of the dates of the letters I have mailed out : XX/XX/2020 XX/XX/2020 XX/XX/2020 XX/XX/2020 XX/XX/2020 ALL THESE LETTERS HAVE BEEN SENT VIA CERTIFIED MAIL AND HAVE A STAMP OF WHEN EXPERIAN RECEIVED THE LETTER.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Equifax mishandled my information which has led to a breach that puts myself and millions of others at potential risk. I am extremely disappointed with how equifax has handled reporting this breach. Very little was done to notify the public for nearly a month after the breach was detected. I received no email, letter, or phone call and instead had to discover it via social media. 

Going forward equifax should be required to monitor every account and notify victims if any fraud occurs. Credit fraud protection should be mandatory for every account, not an option for us to have deal with.

Company: ACS Education Services
State: MA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
I have been struggling to pay my private student loans, so I contacted my student loan servicer, ACS, to ask them to lower my monthly payments. I was told that I do not have any repayment options available to me, and that there is nothing ACS can do to help me. The ACS representative told me that XXXX XXXX ( the loan owner? ) may work with me regarding repayment once I fell behind. I kept stressing to the ACS representative that I DO NOT want to default on my loans, and that I just need to lower my monthly payments until I can get back on my feet. I was offered nothing. I spoke with another representative a few weeks later, who told me the same thing, that I have no options. I requested my complete payment and service history. Approximately a month later I contacted my state 's Attorney Generals ' ( AG ) office to file a complaint regarding my student loans. The AG 's office contacted ACS, who ( I believe ) referred her to a XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Loan Servicing Oversight, XXXX (? ). The AG representative requested my original signed promissory notes and complete payment and service history. XXXX XXXX assured her that I would receive those documents, but to date, I have not. I have, however, continued to receive regular monthly student loan bills. I contacted my state Congressman and Senator, but was told they only have jurisdiction over federal agencies, and therefore can not help me in any way. I am not able to continue paying my monthly private student loan bills, and I really some help - fast! Thank you.

Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
Bread XXXXComenity Capital Bank outage began for me around XX/XX/XXXX not being able to access online card accounts with them followed by erroneous details of charges that never applied as well as payments not submitted by me, Millions upon millions of Comenity Cardholders are still experiencing grievous blockages not being able to contact ANY Comenity Representative nor did the company issue so much as a single letter of warning via USPS or Email this outage would extend now an entire MONTH of no access to make payments or speak with anyone, Call Centers for weeks have been nonexistent and in over XXXX  years as a customer of this card lender i never once experienced such an extended prolonged issue as this. Although i have seemingly been able to PUSH XXXX payment from my paying bank 's XXXX XXXX XXXX and it reflected once i could get logged on as XXXX balance, I also used the sites CARD LOCK to prevent fraud another NEW balance suddenly appeared today. This is a serious breach of cardholders ability to normally make payments and many are receiving late fees and additional interest simply because their payment system appears to been breached and not working as usual, Please ASAP approach the CEO of this Bread XXXX/Comenity Bank company or have an Emergency Financial Response Team cease their operations until the issues are resolved. As of XX/XX/XXXX there are blockages where customers can not log on into their account to service these credit card accounts as well as reach any personnel who will assist customers to not only make payments but that they are accurately applied to the accounts.

Company: STERLING JEWELERS, INC.
State: NH
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

Complaint:
Received a call from XXXX-XXXX-XXXX on X/X/17. Voicemail asked me to return a call immediately to " prevent further action being taken. '' The voicemail did not state who was making the call or from which business. The information in the voicemail to contact was XXXX-XXXX-XXXX with a reference number of XXXX upon calling back the automated system identifies the business as XXXX. When speaking to representative number 1 I was informed of a debt that had been paid as agreed and account closed 7 years ago. Representative demanded payment over the phone immediately and said " good luck '' before hanging up when I informed her that I did not owe nor had means to make payment at this time. I called a second time, spoke to representative number 2. I requested written, mailed verification of this debt. The rep became hostile and said he can email only and raised his voice when I told him I had never received anything in the mail regarding this debt and stated again that I do not owe this and would like written verification. The rep hung up on me. Called a third time, asking to speak to a supervisor. This rep informed me she is a supervisor. Upon providing the reference number and stating that the previous 2 reps as well as her had not informed me they were debt collectors violating the FCRA she hung up. After placing a fourth call, not providing the reference number, I asked for the business name and contact information and stated that I would like to mail a check when for my account and the woman told me they do not take mailed payment and when I again requested the address she hung up. I believe this to be a scam or just completely illegal, unethical debt collection practice.

State: OK
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
I was notified that my personal data had been compromised on the dark web and needed to put a freeze on my credit. I put a Credit Freeze on XXXX, XXXX and EQUIFAX. 

When I called EQUIFAX, I was told that if I put a lock on my account I would be notified who it was whenever someone tried to access my data. And that my PIN number would be send by mail for me to be able to access my account to lock/unfreeze it. 
I have never received any mail with my PIN number or Password. 

Ive called 5 times the last 4 days to get any information on my Credit account, but have been told I should call back, without getting access to my account. 

Today I found out my Birthdate was incorrect and the woman said she would change it, and I could log in after an hour ( they have said that each time ). There may be OTHER PROBLEMS with my account information. I get the same response each time I try to log in, that either, My account is locked, No EQUIFAX account exist, or I have too many attempts, after the FIRST attempt. 

I would like to CANCEL the payment for the account LOCK ( which I receive information from XXXX and XXXX FREE ) and only put a FREEZE on my credit reporting, but I need a PIN and/or Password for the ability to UNFREEZE it. 

I have not had any problems with XXXX or XXXX, and expect the problems with EQUIFAX are common - Regards-
