Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CLGF Holdco 1, LLC (PA)

I have always paid this bill using my one and only checking account through my debit card. This mounts they changed their payment policy, and bills must be paid via account and routing numbers from this same checking account. When I tried to pay online it claimed that I was entering the wrong numbers, this occurred on XX/XX/23, XX/XX/23, XX/XX/23, and today XX/XX/23. On XX/XX/23 I phoned customer service and they tried doing it manually, still it claimed that I was entering the incorrect number. I explained that I had been paying this bill using the same account throughout the entire time that I have had the account, and that the only difference was I did it through my debit card. They informed me they no longer accept debit or credit cards it had to go through using routing and account numbers. They asked me to call telecheck to see where the problem was. XXXX investigated and said that all of my information was correct and that the problem was on their end. Genesis still wouldnt accept the numbers I was giving them, even though everything on my end was correct.I have over 5 hours in trying to pay this bill. I have never had so much trouble trying to pay a bill. As a result of their incompetence they are charging me a late fee and turning me into the credit collectors. I have been working very hard to improve my credit score, and now they are destroying my 100 % on time payments on my credit report. They refused to accept any other form of payment. I dont even know what to do next. They did mention going somewhere and try to pay through moneygram, but I am currently without transportation. The issue with the checking account is 100 % on their end this has been verified by XXXX and my bank! I really dont know what to do next! I would appreciate any advice you can give me. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

XXXX is collecting behalf of XXXX. However, the XXXX account in question was a business account under an LLC. The service agreement attached names the LLC as the customer ; not myself. The bills ( also attached ) names the LLC. I was the manager on the account and NEVER once gave my personal SSN to XXXXThe service agreement has LLC as the Customer and the bills also reflect that same account number. XXXX requests an account manager which is what I was, which is why my name is on the bills ( not the service agreement ). The LLC was closed and the XXXX was also closed. 

This remaining balance, XXXX  claims, is inaccurate nor is it my PERSONAL responsibility to pay. XXXX has not put this " collection '' on all three of the credit reports which is wrong. I have disputed this three times with each bureau and no additional information was provided by XXXX. XXXX also never attended to reach out to me prior to putting this on my credit reports. 

Furthermore, these predatory and illegal practices is unacceptable. I don't know how XXXX or this collection agency got my SSN information when I never provided it.

Consumer complaint received 2018-11-16
Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem lowering your monthly payments
Company: SLM CORPORATION (IL)

When I went back to school, I had no knowledge of student loans. I applied for a private loan with XXXX XXXX not knowing the difference between it and a federal student loan. The primary piece I did not understand was the income-driven repayment was not an option for private loans. I currently have a balance of {$120000.00} in private student loan debt and have a monthly payment of {$1500.00}. This does not include my federal loan debt. 
Prior to XX/XX/18, I spoke with XXXX XXXX a number of times and was told that my payment had to be past due before they would work with me. On XX/XX/18, I finally was allowed to speak to someone about lowering my monthly payment. I gave a detailed financial statement and they asked to speak to my father who is my cosigner. I explained that he could and would not pay on this loan but gave them his details. My father gave his financial statement on XX/XX/18 and he told me they would call me. After not hearing from them, I called back on XX/XX/18 ( I learned that did not have my current phone number on file ). I was told I could enroll in auto-debit to lower the interest rate by XXXX and skip my XX/XX/XXXX payment. This is an offer I had read about online and knew about so I told them it would not work and hung up. I needed to reduce the monthly payment amount considerably. I called back on XX/XX/18, thinking perhaps there was an option where I could extend the payment term or move to a graduated repayment plan. I was told unequivocally that was not an option and that all I could do was put the loan in forbearance for a month and apply to refinance at another company. I checked at XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX   XXXX. All have said I would need a co-signer that I can not get at this point for that amount of debt. The representative was polite and as helpful as she could be given the situation. Her employee number is XXXX and the confirmation for my forbearance payment is XXXX. 
I want to pay on this debt but I am not receiving any real help in lowering the monthly payment. I make XXXX/yr and have upward mobility in my career. I do not like not meeting my obligations. That said, I am at the point where I am beginning to think my only option is to try and get the debt settled through bankruptcy. 
Please, please, please help me!

OnXX/XX/23 i requested that Equifax show proof of the information that was used to verify whether or not negative accounts on my report in question belong to myself. Equifax replied by sending my a letter stating they verified the information as being accurate. However, they never included the evidence that shows they verified the account. I then sent a follow up letter on XX/XX/ and just like the first letter it was just a repeat with no proof and nothing that i requested.

Yet XXXX, Experian XXXX XXXX is reporting this information. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been validated, lets be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything.

I am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my Experian credit report. The account in question is with XXXX, and the account number is XXXX. 

I have recently discovered that Experian is reporting a late payment for the month of XXXX, which is incorrect. I made two separate payments on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2023, well before the due date. It is puzzling and concerning that this account is being reported as late, despite clear evidence of timely payments.

This reporting discrepancy not only harms my credit standing but also constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, I believe this error violates 15 U.S.C.1681section 2, which mandates the accuracy of information reported to credit bureaus, and 15 U.S.C . Section 1a, which outlines the general requirements for consumer reporting agencies. 

Attached to this complaint is a copy of my bank statement reflecting the transactions on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2023, clearly demonstrating that the payments were made on time.
