Issue: Received a loan you didn't apply for — 
Company: Midwest Recovery Systems (DE)

Midwest Recovery Systems ( XXXX XXXX ) are showing that I applied and was approved and money was deposited to a account belonging to me in the amount of {$660.00}, which has NEVER happened! No funds have been added to my account by XXXX XXXX nor do I owe this company ANY MONEY. 

My credit report shows the opening of this account of {$660.00} and that there has never been a payment made on it since funded starting from XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. WHY? Because its not a valid funding. I have never borrowed, used, signed a agreement stating I wanted or received funds Anytime in XXXX. Period. 

I have disputed this with the credit bureau and this company is indicating that this account is valid when its impossible! I have NOT applied or received funding from XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. I have NOT authorized this company to access any of my information. 
____________________________________________ I have tried calling this company, sent a letter to this company to clear up these inaccuracies but I cant seem to get anywhere, I just get the run arounds, either they cant find my info or I cant understand the language spoken by the representative, or not listening to my concern too busy attempting to give me a loan ( selling ), etc. 

I filed an dispute with the credit bureau but my results say that the company just report that the info is accurate. When its absolutely 100 % inaccurate. 

Credit report says it will stay on my record until XX/XX/XXXX but should have never been on my credit in the first place.

" After reviewing my consumer report, I noticed that there was still late payment on my consumer report which have never been late because the creditor failed to provide any proof or evidence so this needs to be corrected immediately to paid as agreed and never late. This account is related to a transaction and experience that falls under the EXCLUSION section of the FCRA 's definitions, rules of construction section. It was also reported without my written consent and therefore is a result of identity theft ( as defined by the Federal Trade Commission ), and the account SHALL be Corrected. This account is not related to any transaction authorized by me, the consumer as I did not give written instructions to your agency to report this, which is a violation of the permissible purpose section of the FCRA, which holds your agency name liable for damages of at least {$1000.00} per the civil liability section for willful non-compliance. Please CORRECT this item from my consumer report! According to15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports The Law clearly states : ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I clearly did not give your agency written authorization or written instructions to report this information. Your agency is conspiring with these creditors against me in committing aggravated identity theft and I have sustained defamation of my character, just to name a couple damages should this matter escalate to court. 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures- ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general if, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall -- i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA (TX)

I have called several times to get information and filed a complaint with no response. I consolidated my loans in XX/XX/XXXX. I was placed in a 60 day processing forbearance to allow for the consolidation to process. I made payments in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX that were eligible for PSLF. I filled out an employment certification form to apply my payments to my PSLF count in XXXX. The form was processed in XXXX and my payment counts were not updated. When I called Student Aid, they said wait until midXXXX to see if they update. When I called back on XX/XX/XXXX which is after the 15 days for the complaint that I filed, I was told that my complaint went to Mohela and so I have to call them. The Student Aid PSLF service center said that my payments were not applied to my count because I am in the forced SAVE forbearance even though the payments happened before the forbearance started. I was also told that even though I was in a processing forbearance, May would not count because of the servicing pause, but my loans were still in the process of being consolidated and the counts and information on my Student Aid dashboard does not reflect a complete consolidation and it says that I still owe a payment on XX/XX/XXXX which is not accurate. I would just like my account updated to reflect accurate information so that I know how to proceed in the future. I work 3 jobs to pay my loans and pay bills.

Im writing to dispute a fraudulent account that appears on my credit report. The account details are as follows : XXXX XXXXAccount Name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( Also known as XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX ) XXXX XXXXAccount Number XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXDate Opened : XXXX XX/XX/year> - **Balance : ** {$190.00} This account was not authorized by me and was opened as a result of identity theft. I have never had any dealings with this company and did not consent to this account being opened in my name. This fraudulent account has severely impacted my creditworthiness and has caused undue stress and hardship. This account was previously removed from my credit report but has inexplicably reappeared. I am requesting its immediate removal once again and that it be permanently blocked from reappearing on my credit report. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I am entitled to have fraudulent information resulting from identity theft removed from my credit report. Additionally, Californias Identity Theft Protection Act ( Cal. Civ. Code 1798.93 ) reinforces my right to dispute and demand the removal of fraudulent accounts. This repeated reappearance of the account violates my consumer rights under both federal and state law. I demand that this account be removed and blocked from my credit report permanently and that I receive confirmation of this action in writing. Failure to comply with this request will leave me with no choice but to pursue further action, including legal remedies under the FCRA and California state law.
