Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: EdFinancial Services (LA)

XXXX is attempting to collect a debt and make it a public matter, this is my personal private information that an institution is attempting to invade the privacy of the consumer and list such debt is owed, aside from providing the original instrument of indebtedness. I have previously stated my request for deletions for other student loans and they were removed which is a violation of reinserting deleted material in 15 U.S.C 1681 procedures in ( C ) Procedures in case of disputed accuracy to prevent reappearance A consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to prevent the reappearance in a consumers file, and in consumer reports on the consumer, of information that is deleted pursuant to this paragraph ( other than information that is reinserted in accordance with subparagraph ( B ) ( i ) ). This company also isnt abiding by The Gramm Leach Billy Act, this act was placed into law for consumers to report company such as EdFinancial from reporting certain private information. The right to privacy act of 1974 also states, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, establishes a code of fair information practices that governs the collection, maintenance, use, and dissemination of information about individuals that is maintained in systems of records by federal agencies.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Don't agree with the fees charged
Company: EdFinancial Services (NE)

I my original student loan balance was {$16000.00}, all principal, NO INTEREST. I had paid all of my interest during the pandemic payment pause & paid off thousands of my loan balance. 

I am under the SAVE repayment plan and have been paying {$58.00} / month since the pause ended. No further interest is supposed to accrue under my loan under this plan since I am making my full monthly payment.

My balance has increased by {$82.00} since the loan payment pause ended, even though I have been making payments.

I have tried to call the company & the phone line goes silent after I enter my social security number to get help.

There is no email available on their website. The link is broken. 

I tried to chat with an online agent & the chat would not go through.

There has been NO WAY to contact them & this is ridiculous. How do they expect me to give them my money if they arent responsive at all?

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.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent.

To Whom It May Concern : How are you? I hope all is well. I am writing to you because I recently reviewed my latest credit report and I found a few negative items that I have NOT confirmed or accepted to be accurate. Id like to ensure that you have and ONLY RETAIN current, TRUE, CORRECT, COMPLETE, and MANDATED REPORTED information per FCRA regulations. I DEMAND, as it is my lawful RIGHT ( s ) to do so, that you DELETE all information that is deficient of any condition, mentioned above. 
I listed below all the information that I found to be untrue, incorrect, incomplete, untimely, and not verifiable, and unsubstantiated. I have yet to be provided physical verifiable proof that the claims of negativity within my report are true. Ive noticed several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity.

Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with an accurate consumer.

C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to CRRG, to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards.

Also as stated in the CRRG Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards.

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.
