This is XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. Regardless of the multiple written requests, the unverified accounts listed below are still reporting on my credit report in violation of federal law.

Company: SANTANDER BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint:
I opened a XXXX credit card account with Santander in XX/XX/XXXX. I subsequently cancelled it on XX/XX/XXXX but paid the annual fee that was due prior to my cancellation ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I sent the cancellation request via certified mail return receipt requested. For their billing cycle XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I received a bill for fees and interest in the amount of {$49.00}. I returned a letter reminding them I 'd cancelled the account a year before and included copies of the certified mail receipts. A few days  later I received a call from Santander requesting I call them which I did on XX/XX/XXXX ; I had long conversations with several Santander employees explaining the situation until XXXX ( # XXXX - no last names ) who assured me the account would be closed and all fees, including interest of {$1.00} which had already accrued, would be deleted. This week I received a bill for the original {$49.00} plus {$26.00} fees and interest. I think it important to point out that my husband went through this same process with Santander less than a year ago ( case # XXXX ).

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I opened a Comenity Bank Burkes card. My house burned down, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, KY XXXX. I lost everything except my life. Once I got going again, the Burkes card had gone into a charge-off. I tried to fix this issue. I made {$100.00} payment XX/XX/XXXX to begin paying it off. It was sold to XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and the {$100.00} payment was not applied to the balance. Comenity Bank sold an inaccurate balance amount and I believe this is a FCRA & FCBA violation, reporting and verifying inaccurate information. 

I mailed a validation letter to Comenity Bank, no reply. I believe this is also a violation!

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Company: Tromberg, Morris & Poulin, PLLC

Complaint:
Received a letter from debt collection agency. They claimed that I did not show up to court and that they received a judgement. The letter does not state accurate information. This case adjourned because they did have proper proof that I owed this debt and that they did not properly serve me. When I called to inquire about the judgment, the person I spoke to stated that there was not judgement and that they just wanted to get paid. My local civil court states that there is no judgement on record with this company. 
I asked them why would they send a fake legal notice if there was not judgement. I could not get a clear answer. It seems like the debt collection company is using deceitful tactics as a way to bully people to pay.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint:
on XX/XX/2020 I wrote all three bureaus pertaining to a whole bunch of mess on my credit reports that I know is inaccurate and some of it I did not do and have no clue how it got there. The bureaus have ignored me on purpose because they do not want to investigate my troubles because they know this stuff is wrong. I want this stuff looked into right now and answered swiftly with all of those items deleted as they are not mine. They already screwed me with the XXXX  data breach and let my info get into the hands of some crooks and now they are just ignoring me. Its been over 60 days and I have yet to receive a response. These companies are unfairly taken advantage of me as a consumer and on top of that I am being injured financially in a very horrible way during Covid. Section 611 ( a ), plainly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives reason for these items to be removed from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be promptly removed. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file litigation for the stress you are continuing to cause me..

Complaint:
Conn 's has been falsely reporting negative information to all 3 credit bureaus XX/XX/2019. I purchased a laptop from Conn 's on XX/XX/XXXX. The laptop was returned on XX/XX/XXXX. The restocking fee of {$100.00} was paid in store at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX. I have explained this several times to Conn 's. I do not have an open account with Conn 's and this company continues to report negative payment history. Due to this, my credit has dropped 45pts and I have been denied credit from other creditors and was unable to close on my house due to this issue which resulted in a lose of {$2000.00}. I have called Conn 's several times over the past 4 months to have this issue resolved. I have been told several times that they would correct the issue in 10 business days. Per conversations with Conn 's reps, legal action will be taken if this issue is not resolved immediately.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: AES/PHEAA

Complaint:
Good Evening, On XXXX FedLoan Servicing granted me an administrative forbearance for my IDR ( Income-Base ) Repayment plan because they have failed to process my documents in a timely manner. My annual repayment plan is configured and renewed every XXXX for the following year. Unfortunately because they put an administrative forbearance on my account, they financially made a monetary error by capitalizing my interest which should have never happened in the first place! 

I have sent all of my paperwork in a timely manner since XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The correct amount before interest was capitalized was a balance of {$29000.00}. The incorrect balance that my student loans is currently at is {$32000.00}. The amount of interest that should not have been capitalized at this time frame is {$2600.00}! I still have 18 years to go on my consolidated student loan plan before interest is capitalized and my loans are forgiven! 

Now that FedLoan Servicing has an administrative forbearance on my account each month will not count as a payment towards the 18 years left that I still have on my plan. This is unacceptable and the correction should be made in a timely manner! Please respond to this problem. I greatly appreciate your time and effort in reading my problem with FedLoan Servicing. 

Thank You, XXXX XXXX
