XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2024 XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, SC XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Reporting Under FCRA Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of my account with your company, as it pertains to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). This section clearly states that a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if they know or have reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

I would like to bring to your attention XXXX XXXX XXXX, which I understand is associated with this account, can not collect on a discharged debt. This debt is now considered a certificate of indebtedness per the IRS, and it is my understanding that income associated with this charge-off can not be reported as it is defined as gross or ordinary income by the IRS.

As such, the reporting of this account on my consumer report is inaccurate and misleading. According to IRS guidelines, income derived from a charge-off should not appear on a consumer report, and therefore, I am requesting that you review this situation and correct the information you have provided to the consumer reporting agencies.

I kindly ask that you take immediate action to ensure that my credit report is accurate and free from misinformation. I would appreciate email confirmation of your findings and any actions taken in response to this dispute. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your swift response. 

Sincerely,

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NJ)

On the XXXX of XXXX, 2024, I was notified by Experian of a decline in my credit score. Upon reviewing my account, I discovered that XXXX had marked my loan as 60 days overdue. I promptly contacted XXXX to rectify this error, as I am no longer legally bound to repay this debt due to the protections afforded to me by the Consent Judgment issued by the state of New Jersey. Despite my explanation, XXXX representatives incorrectly insisted that I was mistaken and continued to insist on repayment. 

Throughout our conversation, XXXX representatives made false and misleading assertions, claiming that I was ineligible for debt relief because the loan did not meet the necessary criteria, including a lack of seven consecutive missed payments. These claims were not only untrue but also intentionally deceptive. 

According to the Final Consent Judgment, XXXX committed to canceling certain private student loans, provided they met one of three specified criteria. My loan falls under Category 3, the Non-Traditional criterion, which includes loans disbursed to borrowers with a FICO score below 640 at the time of origination for attendance at a public or private non-profit educational institution. 

At the time of my loans origination by XXXX, my FICO score was indeed below 640, and I was enrolled in a public educational institution, thus qualifying for forgiveness. 
Moreover, XXXX official disclosures state that loans are written off after 120 days of delinquency. Contrary to this policy, my credit report indicates that my loan was delinquent for seven months without being charged off. This discrepancy not only demonstrates a failure to adhere to their stated policies but also constitutes a significant misrepresentation in their financial statements regarding their charge-off timeline. 

The combination of XXXX falsehoods, misleading statements, and unwarranted demands for payment constitutes a blatant breach of the Final Consent Judgment.
