Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

I had a past due XXXX  account that went to their collections - XXXX XXXX. 

I paid all my balances in full with XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX sent me an email certifying I do not owe any remaining XXXX balance. My XXXX balance is {$0.00} and paid in full. 

Yet XXXX refuses to update their records. XXXX claims I still owe {$190.00}. Transunion says I owe {$190.00}, XXXX XXXX XXXX say I owe {$510.00}. 

When I contact XXXX they say contact XXXX XXXX their debit collector. I contact XXXX XXXX and they say my balance is {$0.00} paid in full they have sent over the records to XXXX  and to contact XXXX 

I have even done a XXXX way call between a XXXX XXXX manager and XXXX and still XXXX claims I owe. 

I have submitted all my payment receipts and XXXX XXXX  letter cetfirying I have paid my balance and XXXX  refuses to update their records to show a {$0.00} balance. They say wait 30 days for them to update I wait nothing gets updated and I call back and start the process over again. 

The remaining {$190.00} was paid back on XX/XX/XXXX yet XXXX has not updated their records and my XXXX credit reports to reflect paid closed {$0.00} balance. 

Because of this I am being denied opportunities for housing, loans, and anything credit related because my reports show a past due XXXX  balance even through I paid it. 

Everytime I call into XXXX they say they have no to see my account and payments so then I email the documents payment receipt and evidence and they still dont help. 

XXXX also responds with no they cant reopen my account and I never asked them to reopen my account I will never use XXXX  again I want them to update my balance to XXXX and my XXXX credit reports so I can get an apartment. 

My last communication with XXXX says they will update all my records once I pay my account off with XXXX XXXX. I have done that and waited and XXXX new update records still show {$190.00} even after my waiting since XX/XX/XXXX. 

I do a credit report dispute with each credit agencies and I wait 30 days for their report for them to come back and say XXXX has verified my past due balance is correct even though I showed them the payment receipts and certification. How can I owe if there is a payment receipt for it? XXXX refuses to update their internal records so when the credit bureau contacts them they keep saying yes I have a past due balance when no I dont. 

I am stuck in a circle and XXXX  refuses to help. 
XXXX XXXX has been amazing to work with and everytime I call they document it and reach out to XXXX  yet XXXX  still doesnt update anything. 

This isnt fair I paid off my account and XXXX is still penalizing me with a past due balance on my credit report.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: EdFinancial Services (CA)

Payments to EdFinancial on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were incorrectly allocated across only two of my loans instead of all four, resulting in them telling me I am " past due '' on payments even though I made the payments in full. I called and spoke to customer service about this in XX/XX/XXXX ( did not record date ), on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX ( spoke to XXXX ). They say they will submit my requests to financing to have the payments correctly allocated, but they can not give me an ETA of when that will be done ( although the company continues to incorrectly accuse me of being past due ). I also mailed a letter regarding this on XX/XX/XXXX. As of today XX/XX/XXXX, the loans are still not allocated correctly, my account is showing as being past due, and they continue to send me letters stating my account is past due.

Also, upon checking my account on XX/XX/XXXX, my payment on XX/XX/XXXX is showing as {$240.00}, despite my full payment of {$470.00} being debited from my bank account. It appears someone manually changed my payment amount.

I asked if I could transfer funds from their company to XXXX of my bank accounts in the states or XXXX and was told that I could not because my account was restricted.

This charge off, reported by Bank of America, is incorrect and violates consumer protection laws per 15 USC 1681. Where you are bound to report accurate information.

The Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) ; Publication 4681, considers a charge off as a " certificate of indebtedness, '' or reportable income. Income can not be reported on a consumer credit file. According to IRS guidelines, canceled or forgiven debts are considered as taxable income, and a Form 1099-C has been issued and accepted by the IRS which cancels the debt with the creditor. See the attached document.

In my case, a Form 1099-C was filed and accepted for the debt in question, indicating that the debt has been forgiven and is considered income. Since the debt has been legally forgiven and recognized as income, the charge off on my credit report is inaccurate and should be removed immediately. 

I request that XXXX delete the inaccurate charge off from my credit report as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Please provide me with a copy of my updated credit report once records have been deleted within XXXX  days of receipt of this letter. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XX/XX/XXXXSSN : XX/XX/XXXX DOB : XX/XX/XXXX Enclosed : 1099-c Cancellation of Debt Copy of Drivers License & Copy of Bank Statement to show proof of address.
