Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Servicer under contract with Federal Student Aid
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
To Whom it May Concern : I am writing to formally request immediate intervention regarding my federal student loans. I have fulfilled all requirements for the 10-year Public Service Loan Forgiveness ( PSLF ) / Income- Driven repayment forgiveness program. The Forbearance is not allowing me to pay on the remaining 5 payments or utilize the XXXX XXXX process and yet it is still accruing interest.

I have sent several emails to stop the forbearance and applied for the XXXX  process, but the account continues to accrue interest on a debt that has satisfied the requirements. 

This situation is causing financial harm, and it is a violation of federal rules governing student loan forgiveness programs. 
Specifically : My loan meets the criteria for federal forgiveness.

Interest should not be accruing on a forgiven account.

Placement into forbearance without consent is improper and illegal under federal regulations.

I am entitled for the buyback option for the days placed in forbearance to restore my qualifying payment count.

I am requesting the following actions : 1. Immediate removal of the unauthorized forbearance from my account.

2. Application or update of eligible buy back days to restore my qualifying payments 3. Confirmation that the loan has been fully forgiven in accordance with program requirements once the buyback is applied. 
XXXX. Cease any further accrual of interest. 
Ensure that the updated loan status is accurately reported to all national credit reporting agencies. 
Written confirmation of the above actions. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to your written response confirming the steps taken to correct my loan status.

Account Restricted and Closed : On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Chase again and was told my account had been restricted and closed. They claimed a check for the balance was mailed to my address on XX/XX/XXXX, with an expected delivery date of XX/XX/XXXX. 
No Check Received : As of XX/XX/XXXX, I have not received the check or any funds. 
Funds Returned to Maker Without Justification : Chase later informed me that the posted and settled funds were returned to the maker, despite no alerts of fraud, insufficient funds, or any other issue with the deposit. ( This isnt Possible ) No Contact with Maker : Chase admitted they had not contacted the maker of the check before restricting my account. Instead, they chose to hold my funds indefinitely until they were satisfied with a verification process.

No Access or Resolution : I was told that maker verification was required for me to access my funds, yet no steps were provided to resolve this. My account remains closed, and Chase has refused to send me the remaining balance, despite multiple requests.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the presence of unauthorized and inaccurate accounts on my credit file. I never opened or authorized these accounts, and I was not notified of their addition. To make matters worse, the details are being reported inconsistently across all three bureaus, which violates 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) of the FCRA requiring credit bureaus to report only accurate information.

This also violates 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which requires disputed information to be investigated and corrected or deleted within 30 days, as well as 15 U.S.C. 1681g, which requires credit bureaus to provide full and accurate disclosures.
