Product: Debt collection — Auto
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. (NY)

False information on my credit report regarding the original amount of the loan, the time reported to agency as a late payment. Inaccurate amounts monthly payment amounts. Reported to credit bureau as late after the account was paid in full. The account was paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX. However, they never sent the car title, when I called them in XX/XX/XXXX, they told me there were fees owed on the account that were from the beginning of the loan in XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately XXXX the misc. fees, I have my receipt of the XXXX sent. They had never contacted me regarding those fees, the only way I discovered the fees was when I never received my car title. As matter of fact they claimed they sent my car title XX/XX/XXXX, they never did and want me to send money to another agency to pay for a car title, that they never sent. The company is deceptive in their practices. I have contacted them on several occasions and they sent me from one department to another and to voice mails. I have disputed this with all credit bureaus and will keep disputing it. Additionally, the original monthly payment was not, {$220.00} for 54 months. The car note was reduced to {$220.00} after I became unemployed and after two years of struggling to pay the note. One agent finally looked at the file and put me in a program to assist me, had they done that from the time of unemployment it would not have taken me seven years to pay it off. However, they are not reporting that, The last car note was paid on XX/XX/XXXX. All information of reporting is inaccurate. Santander has been deceptive in their practices. I paid on that load from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. They reported me to credit bureau for misc fees on XX/XX/XXXX as the date of my first delinquency and the account was closed XX/XX/XXXX. They reported to the credit bureau a late payment for the fees I never knew were on the account, after I PAID MY LAST CAR NOTE XX/XX/XXXX. As I stated the only reason, I discovered the fees was because I never received my car title and called them, XX/XX/XXXX, found OUT ABOUT THE FEES AND IMMEDIATELY PAID THEM. I have the copies of my transactions.

Recently I looked at a copy of my credit report and noticed some incorrect information. Currently XXXX XXXX company is reporting wrong and inaccurate information in which I want to be removed from my credit report. I feel that this account is adversely affecting my credit report and would like to get this checked out. As of now on my XXXX  report XXXX is showing an incorrect last payment date of XX/XX/2019 when XXXX  is showing the date of XX/XX/2019. XXXX  is also showing a balance while XXXX  is not which of course means that the information reporting is inaccurate and needs to be removed from each credit bureau. If in fact upon your investigation you see that my statement is accurate I would like to get the account removed from my report. 


I also want to file a complaint against Nelnet Inc in regards to my student loans. They are reporting late payments to the credit bureaus when in fact all of my student loans are being deferred.

Original CFPB complaint filed under case number : XXXX. This original complaint was not investigated properly by the CRA, rather they decided to respond with a standard boiler plate response. The CRA mentioned in this complaint is not following the FCRA properly, in fact under a report from this agency dated XXXX XXXX, 2016, file number XXXX, the information that was disputed is listed on the report as " estimated month and year that this information will be removed : XX/XX/2016 ''. It is now XX/XX/2016, so this information should have automatically purged. In fact, this has already automatically happened at XXXX. Rather, somehow TransUnion believes they need to confirm with the original furnisher of information. This would leave anyone to believe that TransUnion believes that the data that they furnish, might not be reliable and consistent.

Issue: Shopping for a loan or lease — 
Company: Risecredit, LLC (ND)

I wanted to take a loan to fix my car from an online source called rise credit. I knew that the Apr. Is extremely high so I wanted to pay it back in 3 months instead of the 16 month schedule they offered. How ever, I still was being cautious and wanted to know what exactly would be due in total if it was only 3 months of interest. They explained that the interest will vary depending on the principle Balance and they would n't be able to determine how much would be left on the principle. I spoke to XXXX different agents and both gave me vague and round about answers and really were pushing me to take the loan " the interest will drop dramatically after the first payment '' but would not give me an amount. I told them on a XXXX loan I wanted to pay XXXX in 2 weeks, what will be the principal Balance? Would not say. Said they can not look that up. I think it is unethical to refuse the payment Balance on a schedule that the consumer would like to utilize. I did not go through with the loan because I am not in a position to get in an unknown debt total. What is concerning to me is the many people out there who are in a desperate situation and get pushed into a loan they can not afford thinking they can because they plan to pay it off fast but then end up in the black whole of debt. Rise Crdit needs to provide answers to questions about paying back loans.

Issue: Late fee — 
Company: Synovus Bank (AZ)

I made an electronic check payment on XXXX XXXX, 2015 to First Progress for a secured Mastercard statement that was due on XXXX XXXX, 2015. I paid $ XXXX.This included a {$10.00} service fee for using customer service. The checking account that was used for payment was incorrectly inputted, with an erroneous " XXXX '' added at the end of it, which consequently resulted in the payment not going through. A week later, today XXXX XXXX, 2015, my card was declined at a XXXX. Upon contacting customer service, I was notified of this error. They refused to reverse any charges that occurred, including a {$38.00}, late fee, plus possible interest fees and returned check charges. 
I do not feel this is ethical on First Progress ' behalf. They at the very least owed me a phone call notifying me off this fact immediately, so that it could 've been rectified. I no longer wish to do business with them and request they reverse the late fees and any negative credit reporting.

Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed — Debt resulted from identity theft
Company: Convergent Resources, Inc. (WY)

Fraudulent charges were reported on my XXXX account. I took numerous efforts to resolve this with XXXX directly. I was told no debt was owed. I then was contacted numerous times by this collection agency after telling them that the account was in good standing. 

After resolving the issue with my own creditors, I contacted the FTC and the XXXX about the issue and made complaints on my behalf regarding the errant reporting done by XXXX as well as the collections agency. I received no calls from the collection agency after until today, XXXX XXXX, 2015, almost a year later. 

I explained again that XXXX errantly reported my account, that I have legal representation and am a part of many customers who were a victim of a class action lawsuit filed against XXXX. I told them that I can not be called during work hours, as it is not allowed for me to take personal calls, and that they should not be contacting me any further. I told them the XXXX time that if they wanted to contact me, they could speak with my lawyer, and they never have called him once to this day. I am still being harassed for no reason about money that XXXX told me I did not owe! Any efforts I made to reconcile the account, I was told I still owed money, even though the justification for the charges were errant ( such as being charged a contract termination fee, when I did not have a contract ), and when I had originally closed the account and talked to the representative, I was told I did not owe XXXX money. Then two months later the debt collection agency contacted me without any forewarning, letter, call or e-mail from XXXX saying I had money owed.

Issue: Incorrect information on credit report — Account terms
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MA)

To whom it may concern : I am writing in the hopes of correcting some errors on my report. Experian has sent me XXXX different credit reports, with XXXX different names, although I have legally changed my name, and provided them with the legal document, provided to me by the Common Wealth of Massachusetts , Trail Court, Probate and Family Court, XXXX Division, on XX/XX/XXXX. The reports with the names XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, share the same information, which have many errors. The report with my current name, XXXX XXXX, does not show the same mistakes and I need to make them aware that these reports all belong to the same person. In the reports with my past names, it states that my spouse or co-applicant is XXXX, which is an error. I am not married. I was briefly married to this person but the marriage was annulled due to fraud. Therefore I need the name to be removed from my report, as it is incorrect information. Also, the report erroneously reports that I have lived at : XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX. I have never lived in XXXX, MA. The report with the name XXXX XXXX does not show the XXXX address or the spouse/co-applicant, as XXXX. 

I legally changed my name because the credit reporting agencies continued to link my accounts with those of my mother 's and sisters but now it seems they are mixing up my names. I was born, XXXX XXXX, my mother later changed my name by adding her last name, changing it to XXXX XXXX. Due to all the issues with our linking accounts I removed my mothers last name and changed my first name. My legal name is XXXX XXXX, and I need my report to report the correct information under my legal name and not past ones, that I no longer use. The XXXX report shows my previous name as XXXX XXXX, but my XXXX XXXX report only shows XXXX XXXX under my names used in the past and I am very concerned that since the reports provide different information they think they are dealing with XXXX different people. 

Finally, my Student Loan Corp, which were transferred over to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are reported as past due since XX/XX/XXXX, which is wrong, since my last payment was XX/XX/XXXX, but I pay the loan monthly. These XXXX loans, shown on my XXXX XXXX credit report, on pages XXXX and XXXX, have been transferred to XXXX Bank and are paid monthly, and never late. I have been paying these loans for more than a year and they are reported incorrectly, as past due. 

Thank you for your attention in this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
