Consumer complaint received 2024-06-05
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

I have an account with XXXX XXXX dating back XXXX XXXX. This account was last paid on XXXX XXXX. From XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX there was no data or reporting. The account had been paid off. This vehicle was traded in XXXX XXXX XXXX and was never late of charged off. However on XX/XX/XXXX this account was considered charged off. Which would be impossible since the account is paid off and shows no balance due. I was never late on this vehicle, and could not have been charged off unless I had been late on this account for multiple months. 



This is a huge discrepancy on XXXX and Equifax and as a credit reporting agencies and must be corrected immediately. 

My XXXX show this account PAID ON TIME AS AGREED and must be removed as it is an unfair and inaccurate reporting. The FCRA guarantees fair and accurate reporting and XXXX and Equifax has failed.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

The items listed below are reported on my credit file and were found in my reports with 3 credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law regarding identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (FL)

Dear Sir or Madam : I am writing to dispute a debit in the amount of {$1300.00} on my account. The amount is inaccurate because the merchandise I ordered was not delivered. I ordered the merchandise on XX/XX/19. I received the package on XX/XX/19, but opened the package on XX/XX/19. Upon opening the package, ( package came in a shipping bag instead of a box ) I noticed that the box of the product had already been opened and was not sealed in the plastic shrink-wrap that it would come with. When I opened the box, all of the contents were missing. Instead of what I ordered there was a heavy egg shaped granite sphere and what looks like a base that holds it. I immediately contacted the merchant through email as they are a XXXX company and I did not have a way to call. I explained to them that I received the package, but the contents were not what I ordered. The merchant explained to me they would contact their warehouse and email me once they received a response. On XX/XX/19 the merchant contacted me to explain that the warehouse informed them they had indeed shipped out the item. The issue at hand isn't if the warehouse shipped/did not ship the item. The issue is that the package that was shipped out was fraudulent, and did not have the items I ordered. The merchant explained to me there was nothing they could do and that I needed to contact my local shipping courier. Immediately after the merchant informed me of this, I inspected the shipping bag that the package came in. This shipping bag did not appear to have been tampered with, as the only cut was the one I had just made to open the package. Being a bag instead of a box would have made it difficult to hide any type of tampering. A bag would continue to show an opening no matter how it is taped as opposed to a box which can be opened and re-tapped without anyone 's knowledge. I proceeded to contact USPS and explained to them the situation. They let me know that this is something they would be looking into and would contact me by email. USPS sent back an email stating the package had been delivered without issue, and was delivered the same way they received it. I contacted the merchant and explained that USPS had completed their investigation and deemed that the package was delivered in the same condition it was sent. The seller then gave me the same reply to  check with the shipping company which sent the item to me. This is the point at which I contact my bank and file a dispute explaining what happened.

I have submitted several disputes with the credit bureaus to get removed late payments that have been put on my account. I have submitted proof of payments and now they have sent back that I am currently past due. This is so frustrating because they just took money out of my account two days ago and they have the audacity to say Im late on payments. They have no formal payment history or statements to provide to clients which is very shady from them.

I would like to follow up behind my frustration regarding the repeated attempts I have made to rectify the ongoing issue of late open accounts associated with my account. Despite my multiple efforts to resolve this matter, the problem remains unresolved, causing significant inconvenience and distress. I first noticed the late open accounts issue and since then, I have diligently contacted your company 's customer service department to bring this matter to your attention. During these interactions, I have provided all the necessary documentation and information requested, yet the issue persists, and no concrete action has been taken to correct it. 
The late open accounts issue has had a negative impact on my financial stability and credit score. I have faced undue stress and financial setbacks as a result of this unresolved problem, which should have been addressed promptly and efficiently. I am asking for your immediate assistance that this account should be corrected right away : XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$5200.00} ; XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$5700.00}.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Need information about your loan balance or loan terms
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc. (OR)

I have been enrolled in Income-Driven repayment for nearly 10 years. Part of being in IDR is that you must pay a defined number of payments to receive forgiveness ( in my case, XXXX ). Recently, my servicer was changed ( not voluntarily ). 

With the new services, I noticed that they have zero payments recorded. All of my previous payments were recorded with my previous servicer, so I have no record of them. 

I called to ask where I could see how many qualifying payments I've made toward forgiveness, and they told me I that I can not access them on their website. This number is also not listed on the Federal Student Aid ( FSA ) website. I can only access this number by calling the company, and in the course of one phone call I was told two different numbers for my qualifying payments. 

This is crucial information that should be available with all other account information. Its should not be a XXXX process to find out how many qualifying payments I have made toward forgiveness. 

As we see how flawed the forgiveness process is, I believe step 1 to rectifying this situation for millions of borrowers is to provide them crucial information about their loan and hopes of repayment.
