Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Don't agree with the fees charged
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (AZ)

Thousands of students were scammed by Navient into taking out predatory private loans to attend for profit online schools such as the one I attended, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
As a matter of fact, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and their Parent company, XXXX were investigated by the attorneys general of several states and have been found to have acted in a fraudulent manner. 
Because of the numerous claims of fraud and misconduct perpetrated by XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, the Biden administration has just announced a blanket discharge for anyone enrolled at XXXX XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 
My Federal loans in the amount of estimated at around {$11000.00} including interest, were paid of years ago by myself. 
I am aware that Navient was sued by 39 state AGs regarding their predatory loans to attend these for-profit schools and that Sallie Mae/Navient were a " preferred '' lending company in a " deal '' with these schools during the early XXXX 's. 
These private loans with a high risk of default were part of a package deal offered to " for profit schools '', but loans made to students in states outside of the agreement, or those who were not in default for 7 months or more during a " specific '' time frame, were excluded. 
I am sure this was a big win for Navient, but what a sham of a settlement deal for the rest of borrowers scammed into taking loans to at least XXXX for profit online schools. 
After the AG settlement, didn't Navient also get out of the Federal student loan business due to scrutiny from lawmakers and borrower advocates? 
Didn't Navient have to pay restitution to the Federal student loan borrowers for not informing students of IDR/IBR payments students could have enrolled in, but instead steered toward forbearance? 
Furthermore, hasn't Navient been sued at least a half dozen times for other predatory loan practices and illegal collection practices? 
I am also aware of a " pilot '' program by which Navient is sending out " applications '' to select students who may have filed Borrower Defense claims against their schools and were approved. 
This application is a sham. 
Why do we need to prove anything? 
Navient knows who we are. 
Under the FTC " Holder Rule '' Navient is liable for giving predatory loans in connection with online for-profit schools. 
Time is running out for Navient to do right by students who were scammed into taking out private loans to attend online for profit colleges who have committed misconduct and misrepresented themselves to the public to entice students to enroll. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX has sent a letter to Navient 's CEO asking to discharge these loans NOW! It's time Navient do the right thing and discharge all these predatory private loans made to attend online for profit schools NOW!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

I recently received correspondence from CFPB informing me that they closed my complaint submitted on XX/XX/XXXX because they believe that someone other than myself submitted complaint # XXXX, which is not true at all. I am asking for this case to be re-opened and investigated. I would like for the CFPB to take this seriously and not continue to send stall letters. Per my last complaint, I have been sending letters to all 3 credit bureaus since XX/XX/XXXX regarding an inaccurate account that they are reporting, but they have failed to send anything validating this account. Experian, XXXX, and XXXX are reporting late payments for account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX when I was never late. I will attach a copy of my credit report to show the inconsistencies between all 3 bureaus. How are you reporting different information when the data furnished should all be the same? I have tried to have this information corrected for over 5 months, that is why I am now reaching out to CFPB to help with this matter. I am under the impression that the credit bureaus are disregarding disputes because there is no reason that this wasn't handled in a reasonable amount of time. If I have to bring this to court and hire an attorney, I will be asking for {$2000.00} per violation. At this time, I am only asking for the late payments to be removed and the account to be updated to paid as agreed. I will attach the dispute letter that was sent in XXXX. If you can not show me your method of validation and how this meets FCRA requirements, then please remove the late payments.

XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX These reports and scores are UNAVAILABLE to the public - can not even buy them - and yet somehow these credit reporting agencies ( all of them ) and FHA, Credit unions, mortgage companies etc., are allowed to use them when we apply for anything. 
ARE YOU KIDDING ME...? 
This is WRONG, XXXX  for people like me, just starting out, and busting my XXXX to get my score high enough to qualify for anything. Now this?? I don't care if all the reports I have read that this was made " public '' ( not ) in 2022, as they are just now starting to use it. 
WHY CAN'T I GET A COPY OF A REPORT AND ALL MY SCORES ( and I do mean ALL of them ) when it is MY financial life these people are messing with! 
Currently you have XXXX, XXXX and Equifax blocking people from getting their reports/scores for NO reason other than a typo. They are also using antiquated systems and demanding that consumers send sensitive information through postal mail! Really?! Why not secured online documentation capture? XXXX XXXX has been using it for quite a long time. Then when you FINALLY get a report with no score ( cuz you have to buy it ) you can not dispute anything online, so there goes another XXXX weeks. In this day and age that is unacceptable.
