Complaint sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

I opened a US Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX  because they had an offer of a {$750.00} bonus after spending {$7500.00} within 120 days. I met this obligation within 90 days. Now US Bank is saying that my XXXX XXXX  purchases do not qualify for this spend. MY PURCHASE WAS NOT A CASH ADVANCE, NOT GIFT CARDS OR ANY OTHER MONETARY ITEM. IT WAS A COMMEMORATIVE COIN SIMILAR TO A PAINTING OR A GIFT ITEM. It is not fair not to consider this for minimum spend. What if I had bought an appliance and sold it immediately on XXXX. This would have qualified for minimum spend, do not understand the logic of US Bank. I have attached the necessary documents

Complaint sub-issue: Account status incorrect

I opened an account with selflender.com for the purposes of building my personal credit score. I was informed they were a great company in terms of helping consumers build good credit using their own money. When I open my account in XXXX I was not informed that I could not mail my check in for payment on my account. Instead I received an e-mail stating my check was being returned to me because XXXX XXXX XXXX self lenders banking partner were not able to accept a paper check as a form of payment. I contacted self lender and informed them that check payment method was the only way I could pay due to my debit card being replaced. Self lender rep stated that would be fine and just make the payment when I could. Later when I looked at my credit report I noticed I had a 30 day late for the month of XXXX although my payment is current.
Complaint sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Equifax had a major security breach and I want to be sure to have them investigated. 
Thank you on behalf of the 143 million Americans affected by this blatant attempt at hiding the truth from the very consumers it holds hostage. 
They should be out of business. There are no do-overs here. They need to pay every single American and put the executives in prison.

Complaint sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

I have been disputing an old account with the bureaus. There is an account with XXXX XXXX for which I requested the payment history directly from the company and they have yet to respond to me. That was XX/XX/2020 and yet they supposedly respond to the bureaus. XXXX is showing that they validated the information however how can an account be 90 days late without ever being 60 or 30 days delinquent? That is just common sense!

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. I was going through my records & noticed many items which 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 items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.

Complaint sub-issue: Problem getting report or credit score

I was denied credit based on information that Equifax furnished XXXX. I will attach that information. I printed out my credit score from XXXX different agencies on the same day. XXXX credit agency said my Transunion credit score was XXXX and XXXX said my credit score was XXXX. None of the information at Equifax is correct and because of that I was denied critically needed credit. The information credit report is not reliable but it is life-altering. What each of the agencies report when the offer a XXXX credit scores at once deal, is not even remotely accurate. I am attaching snapshots/PDFs of credit reports reported on the same day. Note the difference. Also when I got individual report, my Experian credit score was closer to XXXX. This service is off completely. Also I had a huge problem getting free reports so I have had to pay for each of these more than once. Also on my identity verification quiz, these credit bureaus put in questions about people who were subsequent owners of a home I had. I do n't know them, I have no relationship to them. I had to guess XXXX XXXX 's birthday. I do n't know her.

Complaint sub-issue: Debt was paid

This is a debt from XXXX to XXXX cell phone service. The debt not warranted and XXXX XXXX XXXX told me after numerous call that I did not owe this money. Again this was in XXXX, I called XXXX and terminated service to my ex mother in laws phone and step daughters phone. they tried to tell me that they could deactivate the cell phones but if the other party used them it would be reactivated. I told them I would not be able to physically get the phones after numerous calls and talking to numerous people they said they would terminate the contract. No charges would be owed. This again was in XXXX. Palisades somehow bought a collection for this transaction and has filed default judgements sending any correspondence to old addresses. They filed a garnishment through my current employer and sent the notice to an address I have not lived at since XXXX. They had to know my current address as they had to pull my credit report to find my current employer and my address is listed there as well. I filed an exemption from garnishment and they did not even show up for court. I was granted the exemption and they are still calling my employer to try and get a garnishment. I am attaching the signed exemption from the judge. The judge actually emailed me the signed order of exemption to make sure they would not get any payments. This is not even a debt I owe. I didn't know anything about palisades trying to collect this debt until they contacted my employer. This again is a debt from XXXX, 18 yrs ago that was not even a debt I owed. They can't give me any proof whatsoever or even tell me what the debt is for only that it is from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I only had them as a cell provider in XXXX so that is the only thing I can think of that this cold be tied to. They will not stop contacting my employer and threatened me today that they will just keep refiling the garnishment. I will still get an exemption because i am raising my XXXX yr old granddaughter whose father passed away. I was told that they can keep on filing to make me settle the debt. I am not settling a debt I do not owe. They are basically using harassing tactics too try to force me into a settlement.
Complaint sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

I disputed these accounts with the credit bureaus XX/XX/2020. I never received any results or anything stating that the credit bureaus have started an investigation. On XX/XX/2020 I sent another letter stating that I hadn't received a response. This has not been about 40 days since my initial dispute. The credit bureaus still havent responded and nothing has changed on my reports. To my knowledge the credit bureaus have 30 days to respond and if they don't that is automatic grounds for deletions of the accounts that were disputed. At this point the accounts should be deleted. I am considering filing a litigation because this is becoming stressful and especially since I was a victim of the Equifax data breach. Please delete these accounts immediately. 
XXXX is the only bureau that deleted the accounts and if you all get the information from the same creditors I don't see how these accounts are still reporting with XXXX  and Equifax.

Complaint sub-issue: Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan

Discover Bank services my student loan, this is continuation of my complaint filed on XX/XX/XXXX. Discover has remediated by account based on a Consent Order by the CFPB where they are identified as the Respondent. 

Respondent failed to take proper steps to identify the loan account as belonging to an Affected Consumer and remediate it under Consent Orders Consent Orders XXXX CFPB XXXX and XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX with a {$17.00} credit as a result the Respondent is operating in a space where they are out of their depth. Under the Consent Orders, Affected Consumers consumers potentially impacted by a Consent Order Violation means an act, or omission that was not in compliance with the XXXX Consent Order, while still effect or a Migration Issue means any student loan servicing error arising from the Migration impacted student loan borrowers or cosigners. Respondent is out of their depth with regard to : complying with Consent Orders XXXX CFPB XXXX and XXXX was already in violation of XXXX Consent Order. 
The Compliance Plan approved by the CFPB and implemented has failed as evidenced by their attempt to remediate this account almost two years after the XXXX Consent Order. 
I filed a CFPB complaint on XX/XX/XXXX regarding the increasing interest rate, no one offered help, alarming total payments made {$22000.00}, principal {$640000.00} and interest XXXX. I have made at close to more than144 payments since origination with XXXX and payment started late XXXX or XXXX. I recently paid {$2400.00} which I could not afford. 
Over the years, I had no access to how much I have already paid on the loan because Respondents representatives could not give that information when I asked. This was a XXXX because they did not want you to have access to information showing that you have overpaid the loan. Now, it appears on the statement. 

I have XXXX confidence that as a now identified Affected Consumer that they have serviced this account correctly. I am sinking my credit in attempt to get away from 15.125 %. At two years past the last Consent Order and violation, their approved Compliance plan did not work. 




I in no way should be made to be pay for the continued lack of the compliance and sill that they lack as evidenced in their continued failures in the student loan servicing field. 
I have zero confidence that as a now identified Affected Consumer that they have serviced this account correctly.
Complaint sub-issue: Account status

XXXX account on my EQUIFAX credit report should have. Been removed it 's been seven years now since I returned the vehicle back to XXXX I returned the vehicle back into XXXX on XXXX 2009 and XXXX is saying I returned the vehicle back in XXXX 2009 if I returned the vehicle back in XXXX 2009 that means I would be XXXX months delinquent so my first delinquency would be in XXXX of 2009 and if I was XXXX months behind on a car lease XXXX would have came and repossessed the car but they did n't or my payment history would show when my last payment to XXXX was made be it do n't because XXXX is not showing any Payments made of my credit report or any payment history on my credit so they are reporting inaccurate information to EQUIFAX on my credit report and this should be deleted because it 's been seven years now since I returned the car back into XXXX or it would be seven years from my first delinquency
Complaint sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

on XX/XX/2020 I sent a dispute to all three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. Its been over 60 days and I have yet to receive a response. These companies are unfairly taken advantage of me as a consumer and on top of that I am being injured financially in a very horrible way during Covid. Section 611 ( a ), plainly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives reason for these items to be removed from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be promptly removed. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file litigation for the stress you are continuing to cause me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person.
Complaint sub-issue: Account information incorrect

I closed this account in XX/XX/XXXX after multiple refusals to allow me to change my payment method. There only was I was allowed to make payments on my loan was via my closed XXXX  XXXX XXXX account. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX, they have continued to change information making it worse for my credit every time. 

I feel I should not have negative credit impact for an account I attempted to pay and was not allowed to. I've disputed this with all 3 credit agencies and they just take the company 's word over mine. 

I am listed as having derogatory payments and having my amount closed via settlement. XXXX  while these things are technically true, it was via fraud on the company 's part.
Complaint sub-issue: Account status incorrect

XXXX, formerly XXXX, was a servicer on one of my student loans. When I consolidated my loans with the Dept. of Education, XXXX was paid in full. However, they reported that they were not paid and were attempting to collect the debt through collection attempts. When I contacted the Dept. of Education, they informed me that XXXX was paid in full and should not have attempted to collect the debt and needed to correct my credit reports. Then I contacted the Ombudsman Dept. who also stated that the loan was paid in full in XX/XX/2014. Although the Dept. of Education showed that the loan was paid in full, XXXX refuses to correct my credit report ( late payments, delinquencies ) and it is impacting my credit. I have attempted to resolve this issue with them on multiple occasions without any success. Even though the Dept. of Education and the Ombudsman Dept. informed them that they were paid in full, they still refuse to remove the credit inaccuracies. I need assistance with this matter as I am attempting to purchase a home and it is impacting the lender 's decision. Thank you.
Complaint sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

There are unresolved errors on my credit reports as reported by MOHELA. I have only one student loan that was handled by MOHELA. MOHELAs inattention to my written requests has created a duplication on my credit reports. I have disputed said duplication with XXXX, one of the three major credit reporting agencies. I have also requested that MOHELA remove this negative reporting via a letter sent certified mail and received by Mohela on XX/XX/2020. 

I have given up on trying to convince MOHELA that they should respond to my letters so I have filed a lawsuit against MOHELA which they have yet to respond to formally. I have sent the lawsuit to their certified mailing address in my state and to their attorney XXXX XXXX. The error I am trying to have fixed still shows up on my XXXX  and on my XXXX XXXX credit reports.
