Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (CA)

I received a letter from " XXXX XXXX XXXX '', dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating " We are trying to collect on your Comenity Capital Bank debt that you now owe to XXXX. We will use any information you give us to help collect debt ''. They further stated in the letter, " On XX/XX/XXXX, your account was sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is now the sole owner of the debt ''. 

This is extremely concerning to me as this is not my debt and I am in no way responsible for paying this. What is more concerning is that they have my address on file to send me this collection letter. I am confused how this company has my address in the first place. Additionally, the name on the front of the letter and the name that is used throughout the contents of the letter is the incorrect spelling of my name. I am not sure if this is fraudulent but I believe XXXX XXXX XXXX is utilizing extremely predatory tactics to collect this debt that does not even belong to me. I consistently check my credit using XXXX  and XXXX XXXX  as well. XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX does not show any opened accounts with this information, or any accounts in default for that matter. 

They state that that " As of XX/XX/XXXX, you owed {$330.00} ''. They state I had a " COMENITY CAPITAL BANK XXXX '' account and that it has been in default since XX/XX/XXXX. It also states that the last payment date was : XX/XX/XXXX and the account was charged off on XX/XX/XXXX. 

The letter states : " Call or write to us by XX/XX/XXXX, to dispute all or part of the debt. If you do not, we will assume that our information is correct. 

I do not feel comfortable contacting this company on my own as I do not want to give them any more information than they already have. This issue is extremely pressing as they have given me until XX/XX/XXXX to respond or they will assume that they information they have is correct. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to me via phone or email to get this issue resolved promptly. 

Below I will list off contact info they have listed in the letter : Email : XXXX XXXX : XXXX Send payments to : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

A charge off account is showing on my report & the creditor told me that I can not get a copy of the 1099-C document because they did not officially charge off the debt and they didn't take a write off which is a violation because it says on my credit report that it is charged off which equates to false reporting & not reporting 100 % accurately.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (DC)

Note : it is now my understanding that my Sallie Mae FFEL student loans from XXXX, and consolidated in XXXX in to one loan with Navient ( formerly Sallie Mae XXXX XXXX are now considered " private '' ( and not Dept. of XXXX. ). 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted to Navient an XXXX recertification application that included all XXXX YTD income information, with documentation and explanation. This documentation clearly identified an IRS Form XXXX Gross Income projection for XXXX ( " something less than {$17000.00} '' ), and a most recent XXXX detail of Form XXXX Gross Income ( averaging $ XXXX, which would project to just under $ XXXX ). Both of these yearly amounts are well below 150 % of the federal poverty level required for XXXX. 

In a letter from Navient dated XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed my XXXX recertification had been declined because my " financial circumstances do not meet the federal definition of 'partial financial hardship ' required for Income-based Repayment. '' This is clearly an error. 

Since, to no avail, I have had several communications with Navient XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to address this error. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint with XXXX XXXX and only just learned in the last week that my Navient consolidated loan is considered private and not, apparently, under the purview of StudentAid/FSA ( hence, my filing a complaint with CFPB ). 

In a letter from Navient dated XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that Navient had somehow determined my XXXX to be {$38000.00}!? ( hence, the recertification declination ). 

Your assistance is greatly desired/needed.
