I co-signed for a private school loan for my son with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was unable to pay the loan due to extenuating circumstances. The default of this loan continue to be on my TransUnion credit report after the 7 years since it was reported. XXXX did the right thing and removed it once we reported it to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau but not TransUnion. We were warned by the refinance agencies we would have continued problems with TransUnion and they were right.I believe TransUnion is playing games with the reporting dates and they do not have a date reported category but a date opened in their reports. There are three separate loans by school semester and TranUnion has the dates as XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. They are also showing closed dates on all three as XX/XX/XXXX which is not correct. The loans are not and have not been closed nor has any payment been made on these loans. 

TransUnion has claimed that they can not find our previous disputes but they are so incompetent it is frightening to have such an organization managing your credit history. We have contacted TransUnion on numerous occasions to ask to have this debt removed and been ignored. In XX/XX/XXXX they sent us a letter stating they were unable to locate our credit report. We contacted them again XX/XX/XXXX and still no response. This debt is far past the 7 year retention term for negative  account history and they have cost us considerable punitive damage. TransUnion seems to be finding a way to stall the solution by contacting the source who will not provide honest information. 

Maybe TranUnion should look at the other two agencies who have the dates reported accurate and remove this 10 year old information from my report.
I have contacted XXXX XXXX and Citi Bank to request that I no longer receive credit card offers, and continue to receive an offer almost every month. Attached is the email conversation I had with XXXX over a year ago, I have returned information to Cit Bank numerous times without any success stopping the offers. Cit lists a phone number to apply for the card, but none for stopping offers. I have registered with pre-screen opt-out.
I recently received a statement from Wells Fargo, the mortgage holder for my home mortgage, increasing my monthly mortgage payment by {$71.00} per month. ( This is for a fixed-rate mortgage, not an adjustable-rate one. ) Wells Fargo has done this before, and when I called them regarding this issue, they told me that it was to cover the increase in my local property tax, which they pay, as it is included in my mortgage payment. However, I checked with my local town assessor 's office, and they told me that that although the property tax had increased slightly from the previous year, it was nowhere near the increased yearly amount Wells Fargo was demanding per month. I did call the assessor 's office this morning, and they told me that the tax for fiscal year XX/XX/XXXX had increased slightly from XX/XX/XXXX but nowhere near the total of the monthly increases for the year, and that the rate for XXXX will not be determined for another two months. I suspect that Wells Fargo is increasing the payment for all of their mortgagees to cover the costs of the fines imposed on them as a result of the recent scandal involving fraudulent accounts created without the knowledge or consent of their customers. I want to know whether it 's legal for Wells Fargo to transfer the financial burden it has suffered as a result of their malfeasance to their unsuspecting mortagees, and if it is not, what action I can take to remove the unwarranted increase in my monthly mortgage payment. 
I would appreciate a prompt reply to my inquiry, as my mortgage payment is due XX/XX/XXXX. 
Thank you.
Experian is unreachable by any means. 
I applied for my annual credit report from Experian ( I requested it online through annualcreditreport website ). I was denied because " it had already been requested ''. I had NOT requested it in 2016. I noted on the annualcreditreport website problem option that I had not requested the report and explained my concern about fraud. I have a fraud alert on file because my social security number was fraudulently used to file a tax return. I am concerned that someone has fraudulently requested my credit report. 
I am unable to contact Experian. Every phone number, webpage, etc ends up in a deadend - I can not get a real person or even a means to submit a detailed email for response. 
How do I get in touch with a real person at experian to address the situation about someone else requesting my credit report.
I have disputed with credit reporting company, but have not yet received a response. 
Financial Credit Network has reported on my credit report for a debt that I paid directly to the creditor. I had never heard of this company and when I saw this on my credit report I told them I paid the creditor directly and never heard from them. They claim to have sent me information ( to a wrong address ) and call me ( they did n't have my phone number correct either ). After I told them I was going to dispute and file complaints, I received a call a few hours later from them stating they could n't find my file on the credit report. I had to provide the woman with more information before she could find it. They refuse to remove themselves from my credit report even though 1 ) I have never owed them anything and 2 ) the debt they claim to have collected was paid directly to the creditor before ever hearing form Financial Credit Network. The only reason I heard from them was to call them to because they are tarnishing my credit report that I have been working diligently to keep clean and rebuild.
I resolved the account with XXXX and resolved the account with insurance company experian give me wrong information regards to the account and never honored the deletion letter regarding collection account

I am filing this complaint against EQUIFAX. This is regarding the XXXX   ACCOUNT ref # XXXX. This account was disputed to EQUIFAX on two occasions. This items has been been disputed to other bureaus and and I also filed a complaint against them last XX/XX/XXXX, and there has been no mention of anything about their investigation on this account .They are the only credit reporting agency reporting this account. Aside from that, this account is being reported with incorrect balance, status and inaccurate payment history which violated FCRA.
Good afternoon, Hoping you can help- I have listed on my credit reports a balance from a credit card that is not mine, it belongs to my mother. When I was started college in XXXX, she had given my a card from her account in my name ( as an additional card holder ) for emergencies. She did not know this had turned up on my credit until I had tried to sign for up for a lease after I left my dorm room this past year. 

She has tried several times having this removed from the company to no avail-last conversation in XX/XX/XXXX, which she has an email confirmation of if needed. The credit card company has since sold off this debt to another company ( letter received XX/XX/XXXX ) but now both have said they can't do anything about it. My mother also has an attorney that said it shouldn't be on there. She was able to have one of them removed but the other is still showing up. 

Original company was called : XXXX XXXX ( XXXX Credit Card ) XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX Visa XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Showing up as on my reports as XXXX/XXXX  = {$7200.00} which was sold to XXXX  XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX XXXX She has tried all avenues and haven't been able to have this corrected. I'm asking if you could please assist in this matter. I will be turning XXXX in XXXX and my mother and I don't want to start off with this incorrect information. 

Thank you-XXXX
In XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint about Wells Fargo who harassed me with phone calls trying to contact XXXX XXXX ( who previously had been assigned my phone number ). I had repeatedly told them who I was. I thought the problem has been remedied, but they are now calling me several times a day again trying to reach XXXX XXXX and/or XXXX XXXX. Clearly they HAVE NOT corrected their records to reflect that my phone number is not associated with the person they are trying to get in touch with. They are calling me from XXXX several times day.
Over the past year, I have been discussing improper handling of my account as a business and not a consumer.
Most notably, my later of XXXX/XXXX/17 was responded on XX/XX/XXXXand repeated on XX/XX/XXXX.
As a consumer, not a business, I was switched by CitiBank to a XXXX  cardaccount to afford me a higher limit well over a decade ago. I was assured no other differences would occur.
My account and card list only my name without any business associated. However, my account is being treated like a business, not a consumer and requests are not being handled as such.
- Is XXXX aware that I am not a business and following procedures for a Consumer?
- Why is the account not following CARD and handling the highest APR items on the bill first?
- My interest rate escalated quite insanely during recent months. You have reduced it but I request a refund of the extra interest charges as the escalated rate. As a long-time customer, it would be appreciated as I believe Ive been unfairly treated as a business account.
After the past several years of XXXX, starting at the height of the subprime mortgage crisis, my wife and I have been through XXXX with our property in XXXX. Everything from a neighborhood turning into a criminal wasteland because of everyone walking away from their bad investments, to wasting our money on lawyers and loan mitigators, to our home eventually being foreclosed upon. Somehow the foreclosure was not the end of the story. A debt collector, XXXX XXXX XXXX, has been attempting to collect a large sum of money from us. 

In short, we began with XXXX, ended up with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and now XXXX XXXX XXXX ( although according to real estate records our home has been foreclosed upon ). Our problems started in XXXX while I was on XXXX. We walked away in XXXX due to a significant increase in crime in our once respectable condominium community ( and a 60 % drop in value of our property ), and rented a house in a safe neighborhood in XXXX. There was no way I 'd leave my wife and daughter in such a failed and unsafe community that our XXXX neighborhood became. 

This year after returning from another XXXX, we learned our property was foreclosed upon around XXXX, and are still being hounded by the debt. This has severely impacted our credit reports and have further professional implications as well. I have n't had time to tend to this problem until now. We need some help! 

Please let me know if you need further data. I have a tons of documentation that include the Trustees Deed of Sale.

Hello, First, the debt collection agency ORION RECOVERY, did not present a contract ( VERIFICATION OF DEBT ) as requested in  XXXX    XXXX   Orion Recovery -- claimed to have sent me verification documents back in  XXXX    XXXX   verifying the debt but I have not received such. Proper verification is a signature and verification that I have a contractual obligation to pay them as the Debt was written as loss to creditor.   Secondly, the original amount that was supposingly owed now has added interest which is a violation in the state of North Carolina  (  which is my state of residence ) according to  58-70-115 . Unfair practices. ( 2 ) Collecting or attempting to collect from the consumer all or any part of the collection agency 's fee or charge for services rendered, collecting or attempting to collect any interest or other charge, fee or expense incidental to the principal debt unless legally entitled to such fee or charge.

Suspect fraudulent activity committed by Wells Fargo on my mortgage account ( through Wells Fargo ) : 1 ). Wells Fargo has committed a breach in home loan contract. <P/>2 ). Home mortgage payments have increased for property taxes & insurance without probable cause. Changes and/or justification provided by Wells Faro does not reflect current # s on assessor 's  website and other supporting documents ( please see attached ). <P/>3 ). XX/XX/XXXX - Purchased home through Wells Fargo standard home loan. <P/>4 ). XX/XX/XXXX - Performed ( current ) loan modification through Wells Fargo. Decreased payments to ~ {$1500.00} now over ~ {$2000.00} ( please see attached supporting documents for home loan # ). <P/>5 ). XX/XX/XXXX - Received payment adjustment notification via mail that property taxes & insurance increased. Given 2 options ; 1 ). pay total amount in full, or 2 ). make monthly payments for 12 months. Opted # 2 for payments. <P/>6 ). XX/XX/XXXX - Received additional payment adjustment notification via mail that property taxes & insurance had once again increased and that once paid in full monthly mortgage would increase. Given 2 options ; 1 ). pay total amount in full, or 2 ). make monthly payments for 12 months. Opted # 2 for payments. Currently making scheduled payments through XX/XX/XXXX ( please see attached supporting documents ). <P/>7 ). XX/XX/XXXX - Red flags in question : when compared to dates & # s listed on the assessor 's website they do not align. Property taxes & insurance have not increased in at least 2 years. They make claims that property taxes & insurance payments were paid late ( by Wells Fargo themselves as I do not have a personal impound account, Wells Fargo handles all property taxes & insurance payments ) when in fact reflect an earlier date on assessor 's page. They incorporated a payment increase justification due to claims of a 'Projected ' increase for XX/XX/XXXX ( noted on reverse side of notification, see  attached ). No clear explanation/justification for increases has been provided by Wells Fargo to date.
Equifax poor reporting practices. They are still reporting fraudulent information of my credit report. I sent each credit reporting agency the same information and the other bureaus delete it but Equifax still reports it. My credit report clearly demonstrate that information appearing on my credit report is inaccurate and is damaging my character, credibility and ability to obtain credit. 

Fraudulent amounts : {$14000.00}, {$13000.00}, {$4200.00}, {$17000.00}
I went to XXXX XXXX Va from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX..I 'm XXXX and I have {$60000.00} in student loan debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$30000.00} from federal loan and the rest from a private lender. My student loan payments are about {$520.00} a month just from the private lender Peaks loan. XXXX XXXX sold it to them and i got stuck with them. I make XXXX payments to the same private lender every month and they wo n't consolidate it because they said it has different interest rates.They would n't even tell me who owns the loans. that 's when i sense fraud.When i was reading about XXXX tech getting sued in the comments sections everyone was just about in the same situation I 'm in.I want to file or join a class action lawsuit against them. I am incapable of feeling relaxed when I think of my finances.I do not foresee my future children 's lives improving beyond my own as I will be incapable of providing to them the things I had as a child due to my debts.
I paid off my mortgage loan in XXXX XXXX. I was due an escrow refund of {$3300.00}. I called the mortgage company, PHH Mortgage, XXXX New Jersey, on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to inquire about they money they owed me. A person named XXXX XXXX said they had to research the matter, and I would receive a letter of resolution from them by XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I did not receive anything. I called them on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and they said they would have to analyze the account. I objected to this, so they put me on the phone with a supervisor who told me they would send the escrow refund via XXXX that day and call me with a tracking number. They did not call me with a tracking number. I called them on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and they said they would send the check but did not have a tracking number yet ; they told me to call back later that day for a tracking number. I called on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and they said I would receive the check by XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I do not believe they intend to refund my money.
I called Thift Investment Corp on Friday XXXX XXXX in an attempt to payoff my car loan. XXXX was the representative I was speaking to was XXXX. XXXX advised that my XXXX pay off would be {$5000.00}. I asked how that was possible when I am paying the car off an entire year early. XXXX was having problems reviewing my account history and said he was getting his supervisor 's assistance. He then said that I was being charged more because my account was over almost XXXX ovedue each month so I was being charged " per diem '' interest. I told him I did n't understand. Here are my calculations. The original loan total would have been {$14000.00} we made 25 payments of $ XXXX {$9500.00}. $ XXXX {$14000.00}. Why would we be only saving {$280.00} in interest if we are paying the car off 14 months early. The balance of {$5300.00} minus the 18.95 % APR should yield a savings of {$1000.00}. Where is this additional {$720.00} coming from? I asked XXXX if we didnt pay the car off and paid till the end would we get charged more at the end. He did n't respond but became belligerent I reminded XXXX that I am a customer and his response " no you are n't you are a debtor. '' I then asked for a supervisor XXXX 's response " You are going to get it far worse now you just wait. '' I am very concerned about this threat because not only does this individual have my personal financial info but also my address. I do not take threats lightly I am putting this in writing as proof that I am very concerned about my financial and personal safety since I was issued this threat by XXXX. When I spoke to the supervisor he was not apologetic at all, only saying he is sorry that I felt threatened. I attempted to review the account again with him but was way too shaken up to continue. My account balance online even shows {$4900.00}. The supervisor advised that that information was not correct.
The inquiry was made by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Also by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I do not recognize these inquiries and it should have been removed from my Equifax consumer report. I contacted the inquirers but they have failed to remove the inquiry from my consumer file yet. I also contacted Equifax regarding these inquiries and they have not removed them yet as well.
they have not yet deleted the fraudulent accounts on my account even after the creditors verified that they dont belong to me and too remove them.
For 18 months now, since I began closely monitoring my loans, I have had to call my loan company ( Granite State Management & Resources ) almost every month due to misapplication of loan money. I try to make targeted payments to pay off specific higher interest loans, and many times they simply spread it across all loans despite my specifications given both online and over the phone. The last couple of months, they have adjusted the amounts paid slightly on my loans, and have actually increased my auto-debited amount without my consent. The amounts are negligible for just me, but if this is happening to many of their clients, they could be making a whole lot of extra money by slightly adjusting payments, most so slight that I imagine many people would n't notice. I 'm tired of having to call and call just to have them do the same thing again the next month. There 's no reason my auto-debit should ever be different.
I have XXXX XXXX Credit card from US Bank. I paid my annual fees ( {$75.00} ) for this card in XXXX 2015. This card offered bonus award night for hotel booking with XXXX XXXX hotel chain. However, US bank is going to abruptly end this benefit in the middle of year ( XXXX 2015 ). As a consumer I feel like I paid an annual for some benefit that I wo n't be able to use. I think US bank should refund my annual fees along with compensation for breaking their agreement in the middle of year. 

Following are lines from their agreement : '' BONUS AWARD NIGHT EXCLUSIVELY FOR CARD MEMBERS & ENJOY THE BENEFIT AFTER PAYING {$75.00} ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE ''
Equifax ignored the main disputed item that is a duplicate and more than 7 years beyond the federal statute of limitation, and reinserted a previously deleted item that did not belong to me.
I contacted XXXX 's about my account not being credited, I was advised by the credit department that they would find out why my account was not credited for the return and make contact with me. This was in XX/XX/2014, I checked my credit report last year and noticed the collection and began filing disputes. 
I submitted two disputes through XXXX, XXXX  and Equifax reference to a creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), Credit Bureaus are required by federal law to verify- through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract-any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. This account was closed due to the item ( XXXX ) was returned to the company back in XX/XX/2014 and the Account was never credited, as a matter of fact the XXXX   amount was {$350.00} and this company is still showing a past due amount of {$120.00}. I demanded verifiable proof from the consumer with my signature on it on what I am being charged and as of this date I have not received anything, only confirmation from XXXX that the company notified them that the account was accurate and has not provided any documentation which a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act is, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). 
XXXX failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. I am requesting that XXXX be investigated. 
Regards, XXXX XXXX.
Under Navient, I was never informed of the public employee forgiveness program, nor was I informed of income driven repayment options. I have been accumulating inters for years on a loan that I did not know had alternative options. As a public employee, for nearly 10 years I could have paid at almost to the point of forgiveness.
