Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of significant concern regarding the inconsistent reporting of fraudulent accounts on my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit report, I have observed that the status of these accounts changes every month, indicating a potential glitch or error in the reporting process. This inconsistency is not only confusing but also damaging to my credit record. 
XXXX XXXX - XXXX have already removed this account from their records. There was an error present & they were able to find it. I'm confused how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed. Please delete this from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete or unverifiable XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX .... - XXXX  have already removed this account from their records. There was an error present & they were able to find it. I'm confused how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed. Please delete this from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete or unverifiable I have taken the necessary steps to dispute these fraudulent accounts as they are inaccurately reflected on my credit report. However, the constant change in status every month raises suspicion that there might be a technical issue or glitch within your reporting system. 
It is crucial to understand that this inconsistency is not only impacting my credit score but also creating an environment of uncertainty and confusion. I strongly believe that the fluctuating status of these accounts is indicative of a system error rather than an accurate representation of my credit history.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

I reported a series of unauthorized transactions of cash advances through XXXX for a total of {$1100.00} that occurred in XX/XX/2023. First, this transactions were notified as unauthorized when it happened and the credit Card company closed the credit card ending in XXXX and issued the current card ending in XXXX. However, the company did not do anything about the dispute for over a month. After waiting for several weeks after no action, I had to call the company again, and that was when they acknowledge receiving the complaint of unauthorized transactions but did not do anything. I felt so disappointed by their actions and lack of concern over such a significant matter. Eventually, the claim was filed and a temporary credit was issued while the investigation was carried out. I was not surprised when they came back late last month in XXXX stating that they took the side of the merchant, XXXX, that the goods and services purchased were received. This is a total contrast to the issues- first, no goods or services was purchased, and I never received anything. I have no contact or knowledge of those the transactions was made to, and it was not even a purchase but what appeared to be a cash advance transaction. I am disturbed thinking what type of investigation was carried out. Taking to the side of XXXX clearly confirms their disinterest to protect a consumer in the case of unauthorized transactions ( see attached the letter I got in the mail today ).

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA (WA)

I contacted Mohela in XXXX to ensure that I had active in-school deferment. They processed my request and issued a message that my in-school deferment was active. In XXXX, an automatic debit of {$280.00} was taken from my checking account, thereby overdrafting my checking account on the Monday before XXXX. On calling, I was informed that my in-school deferment expired on XX/XX/XXXX, thus my account was in repayment and I was debited on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that I would need to find and download the in-school deferment form and have my school complete it. I was also told that the refund for this debit would take 7-10 business days to approve and process, and that no overdraft fees would be reimbursed. I asked how my account was setup to autodebit when I had never set this up on my accountnot only did I not sign up for this service, I never provided them with my bank details. They could not tell me how or why this was done without my consent. In fact, the Resolution Specialist requested a copy of my bank statement to show that my account was overdrafted due to this erroneous debit. 

After XXXX days, my account is still listed as in repayment and I have received no messaging or confirmation that I had been placed on deferment or that my refund is processing. I am concerned that their debiting process will continue to be an issue and I question its legality. I have not had an autodebit for student loan repayment setup since the servicer I had in XXXX. That was XXXX servicers agoI have been moved from XXXX then to Mohela since then.
