Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc. (WI)

XX/XX/23 I called Aid Advantage to ask about some details involving my repayment. They were unable to answer my questions. I asked why one of my accounts was at {$4500.00} and after the first month of XXXX 's payment only brought the principal down to {$4500.00}. I mentioned that this was the same for all of my loans and that there was more allocated to interest in XXXX than in XXXX. Their reply was that my account was in forbearance and that interest had accrued. I explained that there was no interest during the freeze and they replied with the definition of interest, that if you have a loan, each day the loans accumulate interest. They were unable to assist me with detailed information on how my account balance was being managed by their autopay month over month. This appears similar to my wife 's account and many others online have described similar issues. 

In addition my credit score dropped XXXX from " increasing from XXXX to XXXX. '' It is difficult to find proper history of this on the Aid Vantage website and the representative was unable to tell me why my account accrued interest when it should not have coming off of the freeze that everyone was on. 

If this company is handling my loan and can not assist me with the information in house my debt is being handled, The US government needs to step in and solve this massive issue.

I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information reported on my credit report concerning a charge-off. Below are the details of the account in question : Creditor name : XXXX XXXX  Date of charge-off/closed : XX/XX/year> It has come to my attention that this charge-off is being reported repeatedly monthly, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should be reported only once, reflecting the date it was charged off. 
Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies must ensure the accuracy of the information they provide ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). The continuous monthly reporting of this charge-off misrepresents my payment history and negatively impacts my credit score. Furthermore, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the initial delinquency that led to the charge-off 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Repeatedly reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reflect the statute of limitations and is therefore improper. 
I request an immediate investigation into this matter and the correction of my credit report by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide written confirmation of these corrections. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
