Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MD)

This account is not in my name and needs to be removed from my credit history. As of XX/XX/2019, this account was PAID IN FULL for the corrected balance due. They were in formed on numerous occasions that in XXXX this account was hacked. The person who hacked my account attempted to charge and make payments from fraudulent accounts. At that time, you closed my online access. Then refused to provide me with any monthly statements. However, during that time, you felt the need to charge late fee after late fee after late fee on an account that by your own admission I had no access to or record of account balance. It was not until you were threated with legal action that you provide me mailed monthly statements but that again took you over 6 months to do. 
Therefore, when I refused to pay those late fees you got mad. In XXXX of 2019 you were sent a settlement check of {$660.00} which was the correct balance after removing your numerously illegal monthly late fees. See if you dont provide a customer with account access or monthly statements you can not legal charge a late fee. SO, I thoughtfully removed those from my account and provide you with a final payment closing out this account in my name. 
Now you continue to refuse to acknowledge that you accepted the settlement agreement by depositing the check, yet you deposited the check and credited my former account. SO, any charges to this account after XX/XX/2019 are not mine and I have no legal responsibility to pay them. IN fact, this account is no longer considered my debit. 
So, as I have directed you several times. You are to cease and desist from contacting me any way, shape or form about an account that is not legally mine. As far as the credit agencies reporting this account should be marked paid in full account closed with no balance due as of XX/XX/2019. IF you continue to harassment and file false reports to my credit report, I will seek legal action. You have been warned!!

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of an inaccurate credit account from my XXXX credit report. The account in question is related to a XXXX XXXX card service and has been inaccurately reported for the past seven years. This erroneous information has greatly tarnished my creditworthiness and compromised my financial stability. 

I have taken proactive measures to address this issue with other reporting agencies, whereby the disputed account has been duly removed upon proper verification and investigation. However, it appears that XXXX has failed to acknowledge this resolution, thereby placing an unnecessary burden on me without sufficient cause or justification. 

The discrepancies within my credit file are not only damaging but also constitute violations under several provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As per my understanding of this legislation, I would like to bring your attention to the following breaches : Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) " Permissible Purposes '' : Based on this provision, XXXX is required to ensure that the information contained within my credit report is accurate and reflects the true state of my credit history. The inclusion of this inaccurately reported XXXX XXXX card service account directly contradicts this requirement. 
Section 607 ( b ) " Accuracy of Information '' : XXXX is obligated to conduct a reasonable investigation into any disputed information found within consumer credit reports. Despite fulfilling the necessary steps to rectify this matter elsewhere, XXXX 's failure to promptly investigate and remove this inaccurate account constitutes a violation of this section. 
Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) " Prompt Notice of Reinvestigation Results '' : According to this provision, XXXX is required to inform consumers of the results of any reinvestigation conducted. I have not been provided with any notice regarding the status or outcome of the investigation into my dispute, which further suggests non-compliance with FCRA requirements. 
In light of these aforementioned FCRA violations, I kindly request that XXXX : I thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this matter. Your swift action will greatly assist me in resolving this unfair situation and restoring my accurate creditworthiness.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (VA)

Navient, which now services Sallie Mae 's old loans, has denied my requests for public service loan forgiveness. I have worked in XXXX XXXX  for 13 years ( over the 10 years required for forgiveness ) and have made well over the qualifying 120 payments on my loan. My loans were consolidated by the lender which no longer make them a qualifying loan type under this program. Had I known this before I would have never allowed them to consolidate my loans. Part, or all, of my student loans should be eligible for forgiveness. The PSLF program is a complete scam. I worked to pay down my loan over the last 13 years only to find out when I applied for this program that I am not eligible. There was no guidance on the part of the lender and, conversely, they placed me into a consolidated product that rendered all of my loans ineligible for forgiveness.

I never gave XXXX XXXX XXXX consent to use my private personal information for anything. I do NOT have a contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX or his company. 
This is the 3rd attempt and I still have not received the relevant paperwork that the law requires this debt collector to provide the me the consumer. XXXX XXXX XXXX and his company have violated my Consumer Rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15USC 1692 ( g ) b Validation of debts. 
You XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) failed to validate this alleged debt. 
I refuse to pay this alleged debt until the proper validation of this debt is provided. 

You are an attorney/debt collector is this correct? If so, I imagine you know the difference between a Validation and Verification of Debt Pursuant 12 CFR 1006.34c. 

This is all hearsay, what firsthand knowledge do you have? This is all false and misleading information. 

Furthermore, I request verification of the alleged debt, specifically, a copy of a CONTRACT or AGREEMENT. Said contract or agreement must be with the original creditor and signed by all parties involved. You are illegally attempting to collect this alleged debt and money that I do not owe. 

An attorney can not be a debt collector and a debt collector can not be an attorney. You are claiming to be both an attorney and a debt collector.
