I have made several attempts to dispute the presence of these accounts on my credit report, as they do not pertain to me. Despite my efforts, these disputed accounts continue to be reflected in my credit history. Additionally, I have filed multiple FTC reports concerning these erroneous accounts. 

These companies have declined to address these disputes, even though they are legally obligated to do so.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Bankruptcy
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (PA)

I successfully completed a XXXX XXXX bankruptcy several years ago. During that time SallieMae/Navient received portions of my monthly payment ( though not in monthly intervals, but as the court decided to send them out ) and the loans continued to accrue interest. 
At the end of that time, when monthly payments resumed with Navient, I called to see what could be done with payment amounts and they said I qualified for the rate reduction program, but in order to participate, I had to agree to have the accrued interest compounded onto the principal amount. I thought this was the interest that would accrue during the time of the program- as I previously understood deferments/forbearances to do. I found out I was wrong. All along, every time I agreed to have the interest added to the principal, they were adding ALL the outstanding interest, not just the interest for the time frame I was requesting forbearance/deferment for. I didn't know that. So this time, after 5 years of bankruptcy payments, they added over {$17000.00} in interest to my principal. As a result, my principal balances are more than double what they were the day I took them out between XXXX and XXXX. Yes, my interest rate is lower, and my payments are $ XXXX, but in order to be able to meet a monthly requirement, I had to agree to take on double the debt. I have to reapply for the program every 6 months, and due to the fed rate increases that 'reduced rate ' has gone up every 6 months ( my orig payment was $ XXXX, but it's been creeping up with every renewal. ) I finished school in XXXX and have paid on these loans ever since then - taking deferments and forbearances as I've had to, and even going through a bankruptcy, since I had no one to fall back on when money was short. Often I put my federal student loans into deferment to pay on these ones. 
How is this not predatory lending? How can they be allowed to compound interest earned during a bankruptcy that was supposed to offer relief? How can they be allowed to compound interest onto the principal at all, let alone without a ceiling? How am I EVER supposed to get out from under these student loans and still live a life?
