Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I monitor my credit very closely and suddenly there was a XXXX drop in my score from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, though there was not a single change in my credit factors. 

Trans Union concurred that there were no changes in my balance history, utilization rate, payment history or age of credit, but stated that because the change happened in XXXX, they could not look into it. XXXX XXXX, the Supervisor for XXXX XXXX, insisted that there are confidential credit factors that determine my score and they are not privy to those factors. I repeatedly asked for an investigation and was told I could only have an investigation if something was inaccurate on my report. I have reviewed my credit report ( from all agencies ) and nothing changed except the reported score. It went from XXXX in XXXX to XXXX in XXXX. Again, I maintain a XXXX balance on all credit cards, my on-time payment history is 100 % and my age of first credit is XXXX. 

This is negatively affecting me, and I want my score restored!! TransUnion should not be allowed to report scores if they are unable to justify the calculation and factors that enter into the score determination. 

Further, XXXX XXXX should NOT be a supervisor if he is unable to speak to an escalation with any level of intelligence or authority.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (TX)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I went into a branch office to catch up on my mortgage payments for the end of the year. I am over XXXX and my benefits come at the end of the month. At the mortgage branch, the teller informed me that they have to convert mortgage payments into cash before submitting a mortgage payment.The attempted payment did not go through because the account reportedly had been moved to foreclosure status. Then the teller informed me that since the payment was not accepted, my money had to be refunded in cash. The amount was {$5000.00}. I asked to speak with a manager due to the large amount of cash and was told that the payment could not be returned to my debit card and the transaction could not be cancelled. It was XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX! I was told I had to now contact the mortgage department to get a reinstatment quote, which I did after depositing the refunded cash back into my account. The following week, I wired the reinstatement amount of {$6100.00} to the mortgage company from my bank on XX/XX/XXXX. 

My complaint is that the mortgage company reported the debit as a cash advance and there was no report for the cash refund to balance out what happened that day. Everyone I contacted kept telling me that if I got the money back in cash and there should be no problem. However, no one has acknowledged that the cash money was mine in the first place and the payment was never processed at the branch. The debited transaction for the cash advance was refunded to me in cash on the spot and I received two receipts. When the debit showed up on my statement for the month, my bank would not acknowledge outside receipts that they said they could not verify.They conducted their own investigation only to determine the debit amount was valid at the time and that I did give permission for my card to be used for the payment. The mortgage company has repeatedly denied that any error was made and they contend that their teller account at the branch balanced out. I could not get anyone at the mortgage company to consider that my debited account was refunded in cash due to a cancelled payment at the time and that the debit was still kept on my statment as money they " gave '' me. Since their policy is to do a cash advance for all mortage payments, they neglect to acknowledge that they still reported the payment to my bank and that my account was still charged {$5000.00} that was paid again in the wire transfer. The mortgage company denies that the tranaction was mishandled.

Company: EdFinancial Services (IL)

On XX/XX/year>, I submitted an IDR Application via Edfinancial 's website and they responded that it was rejected because it lacked my spouse 's signature. No where on the IDR Application is a spouse 's signature mentioned - there is not a field for it, nor any other mention. My spouse does not even have student loans. 

I wrote to them via their online contact form to dispute their claim and got no response. I called them and the Edfinancial rep indicated it would be taken care of. But, nothing happened. 

My IDR Application has yet to be processed.

Also, the Edfinancial website does not track customer file uploads or correspondence. This is unacceptable and more than just poor web development, rather an intentional method of muddling record keeping that seems borderline criminal.

XXXX is reporting two separate conflicting accounts on my XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion credit reports. One of the accounts is showing as in " good standing '' and " Paid or paying as agreed. '' The other account is reporting as " Paid account/was delinquent 90 days past due date. '' On XX/XX/2023, at XXXX XXXX XXXX  I called XXXX on the phone number listed on my credit reports for both XXXX  accounts, ( XXXX ) XXXX. The customer service representative confirmed that XXXX is unable to verify that a second negative account exist under my SSN and name, and that the only account they have in their system for me is paid as agreed and in good standing with no missed payments. The customer service representative then tried to transfer me to their " charge off '' department whom was also unable to verify the existence of a negative account in my name using my SSN. I reiterated to the customer service representative that I have two accounts reporting on my credit reports with severely conflicting information. The customer service representative advised me to dispute the second negative account reported to my credit reports. I have disputed the negative XXXX account in the past with XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX, but XXXX has verified the information with the credit bureaus as accurate. How can XXXX possibly verify an account that they claim to have no record of? XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion are violating my FCRA rights by reporting inaccurate financial information on my credit report, not notifying me of a negative account in my name, and failing to provide information regarding the negative information on my credit reports when I requested this information directly from XXXX. I want this account removed from my XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX credit reports immediately. I have attached a copy of my credit reports with both XXXX accounts listed.
