I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX about account # XXXX and asked them to delete this inaccurate derogatory account. They stated that everything is accurate 3 times now! But everything is still the same and the account information is STILL INACCURATE!! This is XXXX!! They have once again broken the law! 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions. I have NEVER given written consent to publish ANYTHING on my credit report which is also ILLEGAL!! I DEMAND that the accounts be deleted IMMEDIATELY! They have also violated these multiple laws below, 15 U.S. Code 1681a 15 U.S. Code 1681 15 U.S. Code 1681i And according to the FRCA 15 USC 1681 everything has to be 100 % Accurate. I have the credit report showing the inaccuracies. Their illegal actions are costing me and my daughter to live in unsafe circumstances because I can't get proper housing or transportation! If they do not delete these accounts from my credit profile permanently I will take further action and they will be liable to pay me {$1000.00} per violation!

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: AES/PHEAA (OH)

FedLoan incorrectly notified me when I needed to re-certify my loans for IBR in XXXX. I received notice from them on XX/XX/XXXX that said I needed to recertify my loans by XX/XX/XXXX or my payment would increase to {$480.00} with the first payment due XX/XX/XXXX. 

When I received my XXXX bill, my payment amount had already changed to {$480.00}. When I called they said I had made 12 payments already on my current IBR plan. I explained I had just received a letter that said I needed to recertify by XX/XX/XXXX and the payment amount not increasing until XXXX. I paid the full amount of {$480.00} because I did not want to miss a qualifying payment. 

I submitted my IBR documentation for immediate review and received a revised payment of {$230.00} with first payment due XX/XX/XXXX. 

FedLoan admitted their letter was incorrect and should have been sent 60 days sooner than it was. On XX/XX/XXXX they told me FedLoan could perform an override and provide me a refund. 

It has been 17 months and no override has taken place and I have not been refunded. I am nervous about filing the complaint and receiving a refund because I am on PSLF. I can see this causing cascading issues with my qualifying payments because FedLoan has already shown mishandling of that information with my account. Extra care and caution must be exercised with resolving this complaint.
