Complaint:
My son is enrolled at XXXX  XXXX University ( XXXX ).  He applied to Sallie Mae for an education loan online in XX/XX/2019 for {$13.00}, XXXX. He emailed me in XX/XX/2019 asking that I co-sign his loan. I told him that I would have to see the terms and condition first before making a decision. I logged onto the Sallie Mae link he sent and started filling out the application to view his  loan information. I started filling out the required information, but did not complete the application because I disagreed with the loan terms. The main disagreement points were : ( 1 ) it was what I consider to be an excessive interest rate and ( 2 ) it was a Variable Interest Rate loan. My son may have accepted those loan terms,  but as co-signer, I did not accept the loan 's terms because I was shopping around for more favorable loan options. However, I did elect the required " fixed monthly payments of {$25.00} while you [ my son ] are in school and for a separation period of 6 billing  periods thereafter. '' ( Reference : Update on your loan application : Action Required pg 2. Repayment Options para. 1. Accessed via email XX/XX/2019 ). I was surprised to receive an email from Sallie Mae requiring a {$120.00} payment, which I never consented to paying. However, I did make the payment on behalf of my son because he could not afford to and I did not want to damage my credit rating. I believe that in trying to push/sell their high interest variable interest rate loan, Sallie Mae not only cut corners by processing an incomplete application ( mine ), but also approved me as a co-signer without my explicit consent. I consider the aforementioned business actions fraudulent and identity theft. I contacted Sallie Mae on numerous occasions, but to no avail. I have also filed multiple complaints against Sallie Mae, but so far I am still awaiting a satisfactory resolution.

Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC
State: FL

Complaint:
I was on a website the other night looking at information for a credit card from an ad that was supposed to be a " pre-approval ''. Once I realized that the company was going to do a hard pull on my credit report I backed out of the application. Some time later I received an email stating that I had a new inquiry on my credit report. 

Once I contacted the company directly from the information provided on my credit report ( XXXX/XXXX  XXXX, DE XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ), they claim that they can not remove the inquiry from my credit without stating it as " fraud ''. The rep I spoke to states that her supervisor informed her that they will have to investigate which will take up to 30 days but can not guarantee the inquiry will be removed. Again, I explained to her that I not someone else backed out of the application, that there should not have been an inquiry in the first place. 

The rep became short and advised " I just have to wait '' to see what her supervisor decides. If it was not " fraud '' then it has to stay on my credit. Further in conversation I again advised the rep that the application should have been deleted and not processed since I backed out of it. She informed that there was nothing else that could be done. This is unacceptable, since I backed out of the application before hitting the submit button. I 'd like to see this inquiry removed from my credit report expeditiously.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint:
I called many times XXXX to report that I never did a bankruptcy that was reported under my old Amex account. I disputed two times, and they always answered that after dispute it is there to stay until XX/XX/XXXX. I called Amex, and same answer. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to United Sates Bankruptcy Court Southern District of Florida, and I paid to have them to do a search, and they did issue a sealed one page report stating that they " none found '' any pending or closed bankruptcy cases in this district. It's been 6 months that I'm fighting and dispute with XX/XX/XXXX, they hung up on me, and a supervisor even read the notes that other employees put in my file, and the employee lied in his notes. 

How come a reporting agency or a credit card can put whatever they want even if it's not true. It's illegal, false information, I NEVER did a bankruptcy. This is destroying my life. In the USA you can not do anything with this mention in your credit bureau, your life is almost destroyed. I had more than 36 mistakes in my file with XX/XX/XXXX this year. In the report attached with this complaint you will see that in XX/XX/XXXX they were supposed to DELETED the bankruptcy and they never did. That's a lie. Why sending a Dispute Report if it this not true? XX/XX/XXXX as the goal to destroy people only. They just care for the paid clients like AMEX. 

I will attached also a letter directly from AMEX that I received in early XX/XX/XXXX, and in the rectangle everything that is there, it is totally false, they did exactly the opposite. They still report me every month even if my account is close since long time, that file affect my credit score no doubt.

That needs to stop. If this system can allow me to download documents, I will certainly join proof for CFPB to help me as quickly as possible.

I also have another NEW problem with XX/XX/XXXX since yesterday. I think, not to mix things, that I will initiate another complaint after this one, to be able to explain my NEW problem with XX/XX/XXXX

Complaint:
I have been trying to get an application completed for the TPSLF program since XX/XX/2021. When the loan was recently transferred to Mohela, issues are not getting resolved and I am not able to communicate with them at all. They now have even stopped the email message option through their website- but their letters and updates aren't correct. They state they will get back to you in 10 days and its been well over 30. I also have to wait well over 5 hours to get anyone on the line and they usually know nothing so then I have to wait ANOTHER hour for a supervisor who then will provide the same lame excuses and blame the department of education. This is ridiculous- I have been a state employee for 12 years, there is no question I meet the requirements. Also, I have paid on my loans on time for 20 years!!! 

I have done everything MOHELA has asked, I even reapplied like they stated I needed to. There are still payments not being counted correctly and they are not processing any of our paperwork. They refuse to do anything with these payments other than blame the Dept. of Education and I get stuck in the loop.
