Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: MOHELA
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I've spoken with Mohela multiple times about getting my account placed into administrative forbearance because of the >60 day processing time that has passed while awaiting processing of my SAVE plan application. This was initially delayed despite multiple calls to Mohela, but once it was finally placed and I received confirmation on XX/XX/year> stating that " While you are in this forbearance no payment is required on your account and your interest rate will be set to 0 %. This means no interest will accrue while you are in the forbearance. ". Despite this confirmation, my account states that it is still accruing 6.5 % interest daily through today. I'm working to get this corrected, but Mohela has not been helpful each time I call, which has required a 60-75 minute wait each time.
