Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

In spite of my previous written request I found out that the XXXX credit bureaus neglect to delete the inaccurate items in my credit file, I believe theyre unwilfully noncomplying with federal law & this issue is creating a ton of emotional physical stress. I've submitted previous complaints with the CFPB & you claim I'm submitting the information for someone else. I have no clue what in the world you're trying to accomplish by ignoring my request but it's just creating additional emotional & physical distress. The XXXX credit bureaus has failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These items were opened fraudulently. I informed them of the issue & provided them with the required documents to remove the items via FCRA Section 605b. They have failed to remove the items, additionally they have failed to provide me with any legal contract to reflect I was the one who opened the accounts. I need these following items to be removed from my report ASAP : XXXX XXXX ; XXXX Summer XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, TX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ; XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Unpaid Balance {$2200.00} ; XXXX XXXX Revels ; XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Unpaid Balance {$2200.00} ; XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Unpaid Balance {$760.00} ; XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, TX, XXXX ; XXXX XXXX Ct, XXXX XXXX, TX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ; XXXX XXXX Unpaid Balance {$2200.00}.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are handled
Company: AES/PHEAA (LA)

Issue : Unfair Debt Collecting and Reporting practices by Fed Loan Servicing is prejudicing my ability to buy a house XXXX LA flood. Specifically- there is a difference between the information I can access about my four ( 4 ) student loans on the Fed Loan Servicing website- which shows a bill- pay this amount by this day and no days delinquent- and Fed Loan Servicing 's reporting to the credit reporting agencies- continuing to show it as past due and delinquent. I paid the amount demanded to bring account current- via the website- and am making monthly payments and they are not being reflected my credit report or score. 

Chronology : loans were in default, XX/XX/2016- fed loan said going to transfer to collection agency. Present- still not transferred and no timeline to transfer. 

XX/XX/2016, I paid amount to bring all accounts current via the website. I have paid the requested amount of the pay this amount by this date listed every month. 

Present : the website for fed loan reflect 0 days delinquent. However, Fed loan is reporting it more than 180 days delinquent to the credit companies. 

The website does not provide account numbers, or my name asssociated with the payments- it only shows there are four loans and the amounts of each. I asked Fed Loan for a verification letter and was repeatedly told that : 1. the loans were in litigation status, 2. I had to wait for the loans to be transferred elsewhere to address it, 3. the Department of Educations does not have these loans, I have paid all of the loans with the Department of Education XXXX 

Further, they report that I still have to pay the loan because it is due, which I am paying, but will not report that I am paying the installments because they categorized it as deliquent ... even though I paid the inflated amount to bring the account current and they have accepted all payments. 

The problem with Fed loan 's response is that they will not let me speak to the credit department, the reporting department, or anyone who can make any decisions. There is a complete difference between what the website reflects on my accounts and what they are reporting to XXXX and there is no way for me to remedy or address. I filed disputes with the credit companies, submitted proof to Fed loan servicing and am told- even if i paid every month forever on the website- it would be reported as delinquent to the credit agencies as past due 180 days every month forever until this is paid in full. 

The call center supervisor said they are allowed to do this by and FSA law- when asked what law, she did not have one to cite. I asked for the legal department, she would not let me speak to anyone there, i asked for a manager or supervisor, she would not let me speak to anyone else. I asked for the credit department and she advised they wo n't speak to me either.

on XXXX/XXXX/15 Chase Bank sent email regarding suspicious charges on my debit card. I spoke to a representative ( woman ). We went over the charges, I told her which were fraudulent and which were not. Then checked my husbands charges-all good there. She told me not to worry that I would get my credit back shortly. The next day I get an email saying that the charges stand because a pin was used. Can anybody say " XXXX ''. I called and spoke to XXXX, Who advised me that the case was closed. I asked how can they resolve this issue in less than 24 hours and she said it 's " because of your spending history '' Really, who are you to judge me. I told her to show me proof that it was me. The biggest charge was from XXXX, they have cameras everywhere.She said she would re-submit for a new review. Not only do they lie to the public and do n't take responsibility they turn around and disparage my character by calling me a thief in trying to defraud a bank. Well it 's been 2 months and I have not gotten my {$250.00} back and not even a phone call or email with the proof that I requested. We all know that the case workers are given a bonus to deny claims just like the Insurance Underwriters are and normally that 's not my problem, but they are making it my problem. If I do n't get a satisfactory result I 'm hiring an attorney and going to every news and social media regarding the practices of this financial institute and how the government agencies who are suppose to keep them in line are not.

Company: Hewitt-Capital (TX)

This was a call from a debt collector agency, left a vmail on my office phone. They pretend to be calling from XXXX XXXX XXXX with a delivery and they need to verify the address. HOWEVER they are Hewitt Capital. 
This company Hewitt Capital LLC, has been calling office threatening me. A representative of the company calling himself XXXX at a XXXX phone said he tried to deliver me a summons to my home but was unable to deliver. He would not provide any information other than the sender of this mystery package is H.C & Associates ; another acronym for Hewitt Capital. He was extremely rude and pretended to transfer the call to another department, however he actually hung up. I tried to call back several times, to which there was no answer. He refused to provide me any documentation or information on the summons they are delivering to me. I informed XXXX, I am not permitted to take personal calls at work and to stop harassing me I was not going to deal with them and hung up. They have continued to call my office and leaving voice mails on multiple mail boxes that they are going to issue me papers for summons, none of the voice mail boxes are private so they are sharing private information with staff at my work. 

Desired Settlement : Stop the harassment and provide me with all documentation for me to research if I truly have this debt they claim as the company they claim I owed is not licensed to issue loans in Virginia and Hewitt is not licensed as a bill collector in Virginia.

Issue: Account opening, closing, or management — 
Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

On XXXX/XXXX/2016 I lost my debt card issued by Regions Bank. I noticed the card missing on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and reported it lost via telephone. At around XXXX the banker over the phone shut down the debt card and took my current address and stated that a new card was going to be shipped to my new address. I also disputed some fraudulent charges that were made on the account. I also requested to be taken of the overdraft program and not to honor any charges if there 's no funds in the account. This was requested in order to prevent overdraft fee ( {$36.00} each ). On XXXX/XXXX/2016 I called regions bank and request a status on the new card and report that there is automatic payments that are hitting my account and causing the account to get overdraft charges. I explained to them that I was waiting for them to send the new card along with the results of the dispute. I then get XXXX different version of what happened to the card. The first was that the card was going to be mailed to my new address. The second is that they cant send me a card because I have to go into a branch and show them ID and proof of address, and the last that the card was issued to the old address and that it was canceled. I asked about all the overdraft charges and they said that they cant do anything about it, that my dispute was denied, that I have allowed other people use my card. So I am stuck with the theft and the over draft charges. I even ask them to stop payment on all accounts as I originally have requested but they said that they cant do that either. Every time I requested to speak to a supervisor something would happen to the line or it would ring for about 20 mins and then hang up. The last conversation was that a compliant was file with Regions, that the fees will remain, and that I have to go in to a branch. After almost two hours of my time, I got no where and now I have to take time from work and go in person and see if this can be resolved. I am very upset with Regions Bank, they lied to me, made me wait for a card for 15 days when in fact it was never shipped to the correct address and due to this error there is {$260.00} in overdraft fees. I really do n't think this is fair.

For financial reasons I need a copy of a loan document from 2008. The mortgage was with GMAC, now known as Ally Bank and Ally Financial. Ally 's XXXX customer services lines provide no help. They have no record of my loan number or even my SS #. I have been given XXXX other numbers to call. XXXX are " not in service '' the other rings and a recorded message answers ( without identification of the company ) and asks callers to leave their ss # on the recording. The Ally website has no phone number for the corporate office and the customer service reps do n't either. When I called the XXXX department, that number also asks the caller to leave a message and once again the recording does n't identify the company. How can a financial company, let alone a public company, be permitted to remove its managers and executives from contact. I am going to lose a contract on a house because I can not get a copy of an old loan document.
