Company: Nelnet, Inc. (CA)

My student loan was transferred from Great Lakes to the Ed/Nelnet Department of Education . My loans were only shown on my credit report with Great lakes as 2 accounts. Now Ed/Nelnet Dept of Education is showing every single disbursement I had for school totaling 17 new accounts on my credit report. I was in the middle of purchasing a home and now can no longer buy a house due to their incorrect reporting to all the credit reports. Great lakes told me my loans were consolidated and now here come Ed/Nelnet saying they arent consolidated. Why are they showing 17 new accounts on my credit report doesn't even seem realistic! They have ruined my dream of buying and home and have destroyed my life. I have to seek therapy due to their inaccurate and lieing to the credit bureaus. I am now suffering XXXX and XXXX XXXX due to Ed/Nelnet Dept of Education and now have to seek XXXX attention. They have DESTROYED MY LIFE!

Company: Credit Protection Association, L.P. (IA)

I cancelled my service with XXXX XXXX for several reasons, one of which I paid every month for a " very fast internet speed '' only to find out I was n't actually receiving anywhere close to the speed I was paying for. I continually called to complain not only was the service slow, many days I had no internet service at all. Upon cancellation I was instructed to take all equipment to XXXX and ship back to XXXX. I did this within 4 days of cancellation. I also called XXXX after I obtained a tracking number from XXXX and gave it to the representative. Three months later I received a collection notice and several very rude calls. Once again I gave them the tracking number and was told it was taken care of. ( At which time I made the mistake of discarding the receipt from XXXX because I believed it was taken care of ) In XXXX, 6 months later I received another collection letter indicating the debt had been reported to the XXXX credit repositories as a collection account. I called the number on the collection agency statement. Not only was it an automated system, there was no way to speak to an actual person. I called repeatedly and tried every single " press # '' if ... scenario. Every single time the system hung up if I did not select " make a payment ''. At no time was it possible to speak to a person. Now I have a collection account for {$200.00} on my credit with no way to contact the collection agency. I am in the mortgage industry and review credit reports daily. XXXX has a very bad business practice of reporting collection accounts and now I understand when borrowers truly have no idea they had such collections.

Company: Ditech Financial LLC (OR)

I believe Ditech Financial LLC. has purposely not credited my mortgage payments made to my account. Furthermore, Ditech will not speak to me when I call. I have no way to communicate with them. I have sent them a certified letter and still, Ditech Financial LLC. will not communicate with me. I have attached a copy of the letter I sent to Ditech. Also, Ditech is holding almost {$13000.00} of my money in my mortgage escrow account. They are supposed to return that money to me. They also are holding a {$10000.00} two party, insurance claim check made out to myself and Ditech. I have a suspicion the {$23000.00} Ditech owes me is a largely the reason they are not applying the payments I have made on my account ... I am attaching a copy of the certified letter I sent to Ditech Financial LLC. asking them to correct my account. Also I am attaching a copy of my mortage statement showing the escrow surplus owed to me.

I also mailed an dispute letter, and her department received this letter on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and I have included that dispute letter within this complaint. I have also included a copy of receipt. It clearly states what I 'm requesting. I called XXXX/XXXX/2016 to check the status and I was transferred to XXXX again, who now was extremely rude because I wanted to see if she has gotten a chance to look at my dispute letter and if she was able to get signed application from original creditor and me so I can review. she stated that she has n't heard anything from XXXX XXXX XXXX and does n't have that document nor copy of my license. I asked for her extention # or employee # and she refused to give it or her managers information. On XXXX/XXXX/2016 I received a basic validation letter but nothing that I requested.

How can they validate this debt without having at minimum, a signed agreement between me and XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Issue: Incorrect information on credit report — Personal information
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (AZ)

A creditor must be reporting my current address as the house I lived at over a year ago. Each time that previous address gets updated, I have to file a dispute with Transunion to get them to change it back to my correct address. I contacted Transunion initially in XXXX to simply ask them who the creditor was, so that I could get that creditor to update the info. They told me they did not know who it was. Given the plethora of electronic information available, I believe that they simply are not interested in going through the process to find me the answer. When they told me they did n't know, I asked for a supervisor, who sent me a letter dated XXXX/XXXX/16 that he told me would have the info I needed. It did not-and I 'm sure he knew it before he sent it. After the issue happening again more than once in the last week or XXXX, I called again today, XXXX/XXXX/16. I was given the same answers, except this time I asked for the supervisor 's supervisor, who is located in the US. Not surprisingly, they disconnected the call before I talked to anyone in the US. Hence, I am turning to you for help.

Company: First Credit Services Inc. (NJ)

XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NJ XXXX ( XXXX ) without any notice or warning reported to the credit bureau that I owe a balance of {$150.00}. First Credit Services ( XXXX ) is the collection company they reported the debt to, which when I called could not pull up my file or give me any information. 

When I went to XXXX I showed them documentation that I paid a continuous membership fee ( using my credit card statements ) until XXXX XXXX at which time the contract was already a year old and could cancel with no fees ( I have their policy ). The debt was reported in XXXX XXXX which makes no sense in the middle of a service contract. 

I was told by XXXX XXXX it is a problem with their billing and they can not do anything to help me. This is unacceptable and they could not explain why I was even charged. I need help in order to resolve this. I need to get this debt taken off my credit report and I need it to disappear due to the fact I do not owe it and have the documentation to prove it.
