The upload completed. They received the pictures. I'm cleared for FTC. I understand the weight put upon protecting XXXX. Please investigate this.

For those 3 months XXXX, XXXX, & XX/XX/XXXX, I called the company and let them know that I wasn't receiving my entire paycheck because of the pandemic. I was making payments but not the full amount.

All 3 credit bureaus are reporting late payments.
