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

On XX/XX/2023 I logged into Experian to check my credit score like I always do and as they always do they suggest a free 10 day trial for a paid membership to see all my credit scores. I selected the free trial and looked at my scores. On the same night I canceled the membership but I was still able to see the upgraded features until the trial ends. I received a cancellation email and I thought I was all set. 

On XXXX when my free trial membership was set to end I received yet another email from Experian confirming that I had cancelled and that my membership was downgraded to FREE. That same day I received a charge on my credit card from Experian. Concerned I wrote to them online asking that they remove my credit card from file. I also let them know that I had cancelled. Their response basically blamed me for not cancelling my membership on time and gave me a " one time, courtesy refund ''. I wrote back to them with screenshots that I had cancelled my membership and asked a second time for my credit card be removed from file. 

They completely ignored the cancellation proof by me, didn't acknowledge it and is refusing to remove my credit card from file citing internal policies and reassuring me that my card is protected from unauthorized use. I emailed them another time again, this time directly accusing them as the one with the unauthorized use and they have continued to refuse to remove my credit card from file. The only recourse I appear to have is to cancel my credit card which will cause me other inconveniences that I shouldn't have to endure.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I was just checking my credit card statement on my Bank of America Cash rewards card and noticed THREE charges that I DID NOT MAKE! They were all over {$300.00} at XXXX XXXX -- {$300.00} in XXXX XXXX CA, {$320.00} in XXXX XXXX, and {$320.00} in XXXX. They were pending at the time. I called immediately and talked with a young man and entered a fraud dispute. I had my credit card cancelled immediately as well, and a new one was issued and is currently in the mail. A few days later the charges were reversed. I checked my account today ( XXXX XXXX ), and the reversed charges were RE-ENTERED! A letter on our account just said they were unable to approve my claim. 
That " We confirmed your card was used for the charge ( s ). The chip was read, your PIN was entered, and/or you signed for the merchandise or service, which indicates you or someone you allowed to use your card was present. '' THIS IS NOT TRUE!! 
I don't know what to do. I have tried to get through calling, but I'm continually transferred to another number and then never can talk to anyone.

Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem with your payment plan
Company: MOHELA (NY)

I applied for XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/2023 on studentaid.gov. My service was XXXX, and they informed me that due to the XXXX, I would be transferred to MOHELA by the end of XXXX. 

The end of XXXX came and my loan was supposedly transferred, but I didn't receive any information from MOHELA. Eventually, around XX/XX/XXXX I received notification that my loans transferred and XXXX count was in-progress. 

I called to speak to a representative because the payment due date was in XXXX, even though loans were not supposed to restart until XXXX. I asked about my XXXX application as well. The representative informed me that : a ) the payment was an error in the system b ) My XXXX  application was " lost '' in the transition. 

I was advised to redo the XXXX application and that I would be put into an admin forbearance while it was processing. My payments are too high to make without XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received several emails : admin forbearance, and billing statement. The billing statement is for XX/XX/XXXX, so 3 days until a payment is due. But I was supposed to be in admin forbearance until my XXXX application was processed. 

Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I logon and check that my XXXX application has been denied and I have a payment 2 days past due. I was not notified about anything regarding the XXXX application. Did they want more information? Who knows because they never sent an email, message, or phone call. It was just flat out denied with no reasoning. Interestingly on studentaid.gov, it still shows in-review. 

I am currently trying to call MOHELA. The wait time at the start was XXXX minutes. I have a job. I can't wait nearly XXXX hours on hold to speak to a representative to find out what is going on. This is not customer service. There are no updates on the estimated remaining time to speak to a representative.

Congress has established laws to combat aggressive collection methods and practices. But, the credit agencies XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are ignoring the laws that I am providing today. 1692 ( a ), ( b ), ( c ), and ( d ) ( a ) Abusive practices There is abundant evidence of the use of abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices by many debt collectors. Abusive debt collection practices contribute to the number of personal bankruptcies, marital instability, the loss of jobs, and to invasions of individual privacy. 
( b ) Inadequacy of laws Existing laws and procedures for redressing these injuries are inadequate to protect consumers. 
( c ) Available non-abusive collection method This means other than misrepresentation or other abusive debt collection practices are available for the effective collection of debts. 
( d ) Interstate commerce Abusive debt collection practices are carried on to a substantial extent in interstate commerce and through means and instrumentalities of such commerce. Even where abusive debt collection practices are purely intrastate in character, they nevertheless directly affect interstate commerce

Im writing to dispute the TransUnion record of a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX report, reference # XXXX, of which the XXXX XXXX was in a accident aroundXX/XX/XXXX. The vechicle was fully covered by XXXX at the time of the accident. The insurance company deemed the car to be totaled. I notified the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about the accident with the claim number assigned by XXXX. Then I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that I did not have to worry about any upcoming monthly payment regarding to that account. I also confirmed with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX representative that there was nothing I need to do and all the matter would be settled between XXXX XXXX and XXXX. With that being confirmed, I went to XXXX as pre-scheduled. However, when I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX again in XXXX to make sure the matter was settled, XXXX XXXX XXXX representative irresponsibly stated that they did not receive the payment from the insurance company. So I contacted the insurance company while I was in XXXX to address this issue, XXXX representative told me that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not contact them. As a result, XXXX did not know how to send the payment. I was confused and stressed, for this issue should have nothing to do with me at this point. However, sadly, I could do nothing but to beg the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX representative to contact the insurance company to offer XXXX the information. I then stayed in XXXX for my own business until XX/XX/XXXX 
When I returned to the US, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that asked me to pay {$500.00}, which I immediately payed XXXX XXXX. According to the Lease agreenment XXXX need to notify me in person for unusual circumstance. I did nothing wrong in this whole process : I paid my dues, reported the situation immediately, notified both parties on time, and the only information I had was being notified that I had nothing to worry about. It is certainly the fault of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the insurance company for not contacting each other in time. I had no idea about the {$500.00} extra payment until I got home. I still paid it immediately when I got the notification. However, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX now has reported to the credit bureau for c/o ( charge off ) every month up to now (XX/XX/XXXX ), which is unfair and unlawful. I have evidence for everything I have stated above, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX should also have record of the phone calls. Therefore, once again, I sincerely hope that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX would help me resolve the unfair treatment I have been through. I will definitely fight for the rights I deserve.
