XXXX is harassing me claiming I have a loan with them. Over the last 12 months I've corresponding back and forth with them to gain clarity on a loan they claim is in my name & social. After extensive research I learned this account was fraudulent & I filed an identity theft claim with identity theft.gov. I submitted the required report to XXXX along with a notarized affidavit claiming fraud. XXXX is still claiming I have any account with them & they're threatening to send me to collections ... I need this matter resolved ASAP & would like XXXX to close their files which have any information with my name & social on it ...

Equifax shows my XXXX XXXX credit card ending in XXXX as closed, when in fact it is not nor never has been closed. This started on XX/XX/21. I have filed XXXX separate disputes with Equifax XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21 only to be told every time that the account is closed showing transferred/sold. When XXXX XXXX is contacted by myself, they confirm that the account is open and in good standing. They both point the finger at each other and NO ONE is willing to help. XXXX 's credit report is correct and shows my XXXX XXXX credit care as active.

XXXX, mortgage servicer for XXXX, reported late payments to all three credit bureaus while I was on a national declared disaster ( Hurricane Irma,  Florida ) forbearance and then a mutually agreed mortgage modification with XXXX. They directly reported a 150 day late on XX/XX/XXXX and reported as ND ( Not Due ) on every other month from XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX. The 150 day late reported by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX should also be reported as ND ( Not Due ) as I was on their forbearance and modification agreements, as attached. 
XXXX is involved in a number of law suits for reporting erroneous mortgage information and was subsequently forced by XXXX to transfer all servicing to XXXX XXXX which is now my XXXX servicer.

Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

While investigating if I was eligible for a loan discharge on a XXXX private loan, I noticed the school listed as my college was not a school I attended. I requested a copy of the promissory note and once received, it was obvious the loan is fraudulent. The signature for myself and my co-applicant are blatantly forged. Basic, easily verifiable information was wrong, and overall the document wasn't even filled out in its entirety. No copy of ID, no record of an ID for the co-signer was even recorded. I alerted XXXX right away, and supplied all requested documentation in a timely way. This inlcluded an affidavit, identity theft report, replaced drivers license from the same time the loan was applied for, social security card, signed lease from 6 months after the identity theft, and a statement regarding the loan. The first issue was the amount of time taken to investigate, then they requested the same document which was already provided multiple times. 

They continue to harass both myself and my co-signer. They found " no identity theft '' even though the paperwork very clearly confirms my claim. At this point, the credit reporting agencies have removed the loan from my reports but XXXX continues to add interest to the account and call incessantly.
Complaint sub-issue: Funds not received from closed account

On XX/XX/2022 I was notified that my Citibank account ( XXXX ) was blocked for closure. My account was opened as a child and considered a custodial account to my parents joint account. On XX/XX/2022 {$27000.00} was withdrawn from my savings account. Since that time there has been no accounting of this money. I believe that some may have been used to pay outstanding money my parents owed to Citibank. According to my records, {$7800.00} is left and and not been returned to me. Attached is my XXXX statement. I did not receive any statements since this time. I have called Citibank numerous times with no resolution sine XX/XX/2022. Citibank does not make this department available to customers by phone or for any written correspondence. I placed my money in my Citibank savings account to keep it safe and instead it feels that Citibank has stolen it. They have refused to talk with me or provide any accountability with the money in my account. 

Please help me resolve this issue.

Complaint sub-issue: Problem with personal statement of dispute

All three credit bureaus, XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are reporting false and inaccurate information about a public Record Bankruptcy on my credit report. 
Each Bureau does not report The Status, the Date Paid, the amount, or Plaintiff. The Court number is inaccurate. It shows no accounts included in bankruptcy. Some show no discharge date or inaccurate discharge date. 

I sent several letters to clear up this matter with them saying the information is accurate but they Have not provided me who they verified this information with. The courts themselves do not furnish this information to any credit Bureau or any third party agency.
Complaint sub-issue: Problem with statement of dispute

Over the past 2 years I have disputed a judgment that was dismissed. I submitted several complaints to both Equifax and CFPB and no favorable actions manifested. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX a representative indicated the investigation was complete and that traditionally when evidence of a dismissed judgment is provided then removal follows the investigation. I provided with my complaint the documentation which has been attached for your review. However, another Equifax representative, XXXX XXXX indicated on XXXX XXXX, XXXX that there would be no removal since the court placed the judgment on my credit record. I confirmed with the administrative assistant for Honorable Judge XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX if this judgment has been placed by the court unto my credit record and was advised no and to dispute with Equifax. I demand that this judgment is removed from my credit history. Furthermore, I received notice of the class action settlement regarding Equifax report listing a judgment marked as open a month or longer after they had been paid, vacated or dismissed, and consumers who complained to Equifax about inaccurate judgment listings will receive a complimentary credit monitoring service. The solution is not a free credit monitoring service instead I demand that erroneous information is removed from my credit history. Thank you for your assistance.
Complaint sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

On XX/XX/XXXX - I received an alert that a medical debt collections was added to my credit file ( XXXX ). This debt was paid with the original creditor and a letter was provided that states all debt information and the entire reporting will be removed from ALL of my credit files ( XXXX, XXXX and Equifax ). I am showing that it was removed from XXXX, but now it shows on on the others. This debt should have never been on my credit file as I never received any letters or calls and was told they had an old address that I have not lived at for several years. So, how was this even added to my credit file with no knowledge or no contact being made?
Complaint sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

I called FedLoanServicing to request refunds for payments I made during the federal payment pause. I am eligible to receive refunds due to federal law. 

The loan agent I spoke with denied my request 4-5 times over the span of more than 2 hours. I informed her that I am in fact eligible and she denied that I was. She had me wait on hold multiple times, for several minutes at a time. The last hold she had me wait on was over 40 minutes and continued into their closing time. I hung up and called back and could not reach an agent because they were closed. I believe she intentionally left me on hold for this long into closing time so she would no longer have to speak with me. 

I called again on XX/XX/22. The first agent I spoke with denied my request and transferred me to his supervisor. I waited on hold for over 20 minutes and decided to hang up and call back. 

This time, the agent I spoke with was very kind and processed my request. She told me I can expect a refund as early as XX/XX/22 and that my closed accounts would be reinstated according to amount refunded. I thanked her. 

I called on XX/XX/22 to request an update on the status of my refund. The first agent I spoke with stated she could provide no update or any additional details other than a request has been received and it may take 30-45 days to receive a refund. I requested to speak to a supervisor.

When the supervisor answered she asked if I wanted to request a refund. I stated that my refund request has already been submitted and that I am requesting a status update on my refund request because I was told I can expect the refund as early as XX/XX/22. The agent stated she can provide no additional details other than the refund may take up 180 days. 

I am complaining because 1 ) some agents are flat out denying requests 2 ) some agents are reluctant to process requests 3 ) agents are giving inconsistent information and cant provide pertinent details.
Complaint sub-issue: Debt was paid

I keep getting hits on my credit from ATG Credit LLC. I disputed the collection twice through the XXXX  app first on XX/XX/2020 then XX/XX/2020. And my reason for disputing it was because I paid off the debt. Each time they removed it. And after that, I contacted them in XXXX once they yet again tried to add it to my credit again. The person I spoke to was very rude and said they would reach out to the place in which I went to get the medical services then ended the conversation with me. Which resulted in them taking the collection off of my account for the third time. This is the FOURTH time they have put this back on my credit. And when I contact them they always want my full name, social, address, email, and phone number. I feel highly harassed by them at this point.
