Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (GA)

I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning matter regarding the reporting of late payments to the credit bureaus on my account. I have been diligently maintaining my payments and have never missed a payment deadline. 

Upon reviewing my credit report, I was astonished to discover that late payments were reported for XXXX and XX/XX/. I must stress that I have always adhered to an income-driven payment plan as a low-income student. As such, the reporting of late payments is entirely inaccurate and does not reflect my payment history. 

I have made previous attempts to rectify this issue through your customer service channels, but unfortunately, I have not received satisfactory assistance. I am genuinely concerned about the impact this misinformation may have on my credit score and financial standing. 

I kindly request your immediate attention and action to rectify this error. It is crucial that these inaccuracies are promptly corrected with the credit bureaus to accurately reflect my history of timely payments.

Issue: Closing on a mortgage — 
Company: Southwest Business Corporation (TN)

On XX/XX/2020 I closed a refinance transaction with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX disbursed my payoff with an effective date of XX/XX/2020 to SWBC Mortgage. 

The payoff was sent via XXXX and delivered on XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX. and signed for by XXXX. at the payoff department in XXXX, NJ ( XXXX, NJ ). The payoff department did not deposit the check from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and stamped it received on XX/XX/2020. SWBC then returned my payoff check to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX with a letter stating that my check was not received until XX/XX/2020 for the full payoff and also included an updated Payoff Statement good through XX/XX/2020 for an additional {$400.00}. Multiple phone calls have been made by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX to the customer service department and associates state that they will escalate it to upper management. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, has been told by three different associates that a payoff department manager would return her call and she has yet to receive a phone call. She also faxed copies of the XXXX label and confirmation of signature receipt as directed by customer service. The faxed cleared to SWBC and no action has been taken. I have now wired a full payoff to SWBC and am disappointed and frustrated that I have had to pay an additional {$400.00} due to the error of the payoff department. This constitutes predatory lending behavior and I have been advised to contact CFPB for this purpose.

Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services — Billing dispute for services
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (IL)

I have disputed a collection from XXXX and XXXX and a collection from XXXX that appear on my credit reports numerous times for Identity Theft. I have a notation on my credit reports that this occurred. I found out from a previous employer that someone had been using my full identity for many months and had gone as far as filing an unemployment claim with the state of Illinois against my employer. The State of Illinois investigated and found that this was indeed Identity Theft. At that time, they advised that they had handled the issue, notated my records and I did not need to file a report with the local police. Since then, I have found out through my credit reports that that there were multiple loans and credit cards taken out around this same time using my stolen drivers license, social security card, and employer information and most of them were investigated and found to be due to Identity Theft and removed. However, these two continue to remain. Attached is a copy of the fraudulent unemployment claim that spanned from XXXX through XXXX. Please help.

I reviewed my XXXX credit reoport on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Their was " Charged-off " account from XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1700.00}. I wrote to XXXX to provide me with information regarding the balance and supporting documentation. I sent them a letter via certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX. I never received any communication from them. In XX/XX/XXXX I reviewed all three ( 3 ) credit reporting agencies and the " Charged-Off '' account had been removed from all three ( 3 ) bureaus. 

I reviewed my credit file again in XX/XX/XXXX and noticed a collection place on all three ( 3 ) credit reporting agencies from a " Portfolio Recovery Associates , LLC '' with an open account date of XX/XX/XXXX. I do not know who this is and why they would place a " Collection '' account on my credit file. I had already contacted the original creditor and settled this matter with them directly!

I also noted that they had violated the new FDCPA law implemented on XX/XX/XXXX, dealing with Regulation F. They are suppose the make contact with a consumer before they are allowed to place a collection on a person 's credit file. They did not, nor have they spoken with me regarding this matter. 

The original creditor had removed this debt off of my credit reports back in XX/XX/XXXX. Why is this Portfolio Recovery not abiding by the Consumer laws that are implemented?
