Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA (UT)

My name is XXXX XXXX, Borrower Defense Application # XXXX. I haven't received my full relief. Mohela processed the discharge on my two Direct Consolidation Loans on XX/XX/year>, and the balance has dropped to zero. Mohela stated that the refund check would be issued from the U.S. Department of Treasury within approximately 90 days, Mohela 's representative stated that the refund was also processed on XX/XX/XXXX when I contacted them on XX/XX/year>, and told me to contact the borrower defense team instead to get further information about the refund check. I contacted the borrower defense and they informed me they don't have any information about the refund check and that the loan server would be the only one that would have that information. I wanted to find out if a refund check was processed, and mailed out, as I haven't received a refund within 90 days. I wasn't aware that potential theft was happening until I was reading forums on XXXX and a news report of the theft of U.S. Department of Treasury checks hopefully my wasn't stolen and just not processed yet, but I have not received any proper information from Mohela to confirm. Lastly, my loan records are still showing on my XXXX credit report and have not been deleted yet. I have attached my documents regarding the discharge of the loan

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Subject : Dispute of Unauthorized Hard Inquiries on My Credit Report I am writing to formally dispute several unauthorized hard inquiries listed on my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate or incomplete.

According to 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report solely under the specified circumstances : " In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' However, neither the financial institution nor the consumer reporting agencies, including XXXX, XXXX, and Experian,

possess my consent to disclose this information, as I have not provided written authorization. If there were written authorization, I can only presume it was forged, raising concerns of identity theft. Moreover, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) highlights that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' Nevertheless, Furnishers of information to credit agencies failed to inform me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option.

These inquiries appear on my report without my knowledge or consent, raising concerns about potential identity theft or a violation of my rights under the FCRA. According to FCRA Permissible Purposes ( Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ) it requires credit reporting agencies to have a " permissible purpose '' to provide your report. Unauthorized inquiries wouldn't fall under any permissible purpose. Remove these unauthorized inquiries immediately from my credit file.

I have unfortunately become a victim of identity theft. In XX/XX/XXXX, I uncovered several accounts opened in my name without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to dispute these fraudulent accounts with the Consumer Agencies, the issue remained unresolved, leading me to file an Identity Theft Police Report in XX/XX/XXXX. Through diligent follow-up, I successfully removed most of the fraudulent accounts. However, Experian still lists the following accounts on my Consumer Report : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXXXX/XX/XXXX andXX/XX/XXXXXXXX. I would like to bring to your attention that Experian is currently in violation of multiple provisions under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including but not limited to : *Failure to Correct or Delete Inaccurate, Incomplete, or Unverifiable Information ( 15 U.S.C . 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ) *Permissible Purpose ( 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) ) *Block of Information Resulting from Identity Theft ( 15 USC 1681c-2 ) *Civil Liability for Willful Noncompliance ( 15 USC 1681n ) *Failure to Maintain Reasonable Procedures to Ensure Maximum Possible Accuracy ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) *Failure to Conduct a Reasonable Reinvestigation ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ) *Civil Liability for Negligent Noncompliance ( 15 USC 1681o ) I demand that you immediately initiate an investigation into my dispute and delete this erroneous information within four business days of receiving this notice, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act under 15 USC 1681c-2. Your failure to comply with this request will leave me with no alternative but to pursue legal action to protect my credit rating and personal interests. Keep in mind that each violation of the FCRA is subject to damages of up to {$1000.00} should this matter escalate to court. 
This situation has not only caused me immense emotional distress but has also severely affected my mental well-being. As a result, I am left with no choice but to escalate this issue and insist upon a swift and equitable resolution.
