Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TN)

I am writing to file a formal complaint against BANK OF AMERICA regarding their unauthorized sharing of my nonpublic personal information with non-affiliated third parties and consumer reporting agencies. On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a complaint requesting that Bank of America remove their reporting to XXXX XXXX which has errors and incorrect information about me that is preventing me from opening a new bank account, but my request was ignored. They provided a number with an extension to call to discuss the matter but my calls and voicemails were never answered. I'm requesting that Bank of America rectify the information that they are reporting to XXXX XXXX or remove their reporting. 
I have taken appropriate steps to exercise my rights under 15 USC 6802 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ) to opt out of such information sharing, and I believe my privacy rights have been violated. On XX/XX/year>, I notified BANK OF AMERICA that I am opting out of any and all authorizations, whether written, unwritten, verbal, or non-verbal, for the sharing of my nonpublic personal information with non-affiliate third parties, including consumer reporting agencies, for any purpose other than those necessary to provide me with financial products or services. I provided this opt-out notice in accordance with the legal requirements outlined in 15 USC 6802 , and I have retained documentation of my communication with the institution. Despite my explicit opt-out request and my clear assertion of my rights under the GLBA, I have reason to believe that BANK OF AMERICA has continued to furnish my nonpublic personal information to non-affiliated third parties and consumer reporting agencies without my consent. This unauthorized sharing of my personal information constitutes a serious violation of my privacy rights and breach of federal law. I am deeply concerned about the potential consequences of this unauthorized sharing including the potential for identity theft, fraud, and other financial harm. I kindly request that the CFPB investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate action to ensure that BANK OF AMERICA complies with all federal regulations and laws, including the GLBA to protect the privacy and information security of consumers like me. Additionally, I would appreciate regular updates of this investigation and any action taken to address the violations committed by BANK OF AMERICA.

Please forward me a notification that you have communicated with the consumer credit reporting agencies and have, without any delays, directed each to eliminate any and all adverse remarks and further to display PAID or PAYS as AGREED, NEVER LATE!. Any other response on your part is INSUFFICIENT to responsible reporting and would be deemed an act of aggression, be it an unlawful one.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: EdFinancial Services (NY)

My student loans have been paid in full. As of XX/XX/2023, my EdFinancial account and my Federal Student Aid account had been updated to reflect the {$0.00} balance. 

However, yesterday morning an EdFinancial customer service representative notified me that I have an account balance of {$550.00}. That evening, I logged into my EdFinancial account and saw a total current balance of {$41000.00}. As of this morning, the amount has grown to {$41000.00}, and it now says that I have a past-due payment of {$110.00}. 

The current balance on XXXX XXXX is listed as {$650.00} ( original principal {$20000.00} ). The following payments were made to this group : XX/XX/2023 : {$900.00} ( confirmation # XXXX ) XX/XX/2023 : {$19000.00} ( confirmation # XXXX ) The current balance on XXXX XXXX is listed as {$20000.00} ( original principal {$20000.00} ). The following payments were made to this group : XX/XX/2023 : {$20000.00} ( confirmation # XXXX ) The current balance on XXXX XXXX is listed as {$20000.00} ( original principal {$20000.00} ). The following payments were made to this group : XX/XX/2023 : {$20000.00} ( confirmation # XXXX ) All of these payments were made and reflected on my EdFinancial account this XXXX, BEFORE any interest could have started accruing. As such, these loans have been paid in full and I do not owe any more. 

I am attaching the following : 1. A screenshot of my account summary page showing payments listed as due now ; 2. A screenshot of the total current balance as it appears on my account now ; 3. The specific amounts for each loan that my account lists as owed ; 4. A compilation of confirmation emails for every payment made towards my student loans ; 5. A compilation of screenshots of each loan payment made, with loan groups specified ; 6. A screenshot of my {$0.00} loan balance on my EdFinancial account as of XX/XX/2023 ; 7. A screenshot of my {$0.00} loan balance on my Federal Student Aid account as of XX/XX/2023 ; and 8. My correspondence with EdFinancial as of today, XX/XX/2023. I am contacting you concurrently with EdFinancial because this issue has now become time-sensitive in light of the claimed " past-due '' payment, and I have had trouble getting timely responses from EdFinancial in the past on other issues.

Complaint Regarding Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. I have been actively disputing these inaccuracies with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to adequately investigate my claims or remove the incorrect information. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I attached the PDF file below containing the list of items that have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

Credit Bureau stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify or delete accounts that aren't reporting correctly.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

I also believe that the credit bureaus have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to : 1. Investigate my disputes in a timely and reasonable manner : The credit bureaus have not provided a clear explanation for their decision not to remove the inaccurate information, and I believe their investigation was inadequate. 

2. Furnish accurate information to creditors : The inaccurate information on my credit report is harming my ability to obtain credit and other financial services.

3. Follow the FCRA 's dispute resolution procedures : The credit bureaus have failed to comply with the timeframes and procedures outlined in the FCRA.

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate my complaint and take the following actions : 1. Order the credit bureaus to remove the inaccurate information from my credit report.

2. Require the credit bureaus to provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the changes.

Enclosures : Copies of my credit reports Copies of my dispute letters Copies of any supporting documentation I provided to the credit bureaus
