Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Follow-Up Complaint : Failure to Address Unauthorized Loan Origination & Credit Reporting Harm Dear CFPB and Nelnet, I am writing in follow-up to Nelnets recent response to my complaint, which I submitted to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX While Nelnet acknowledged my concern regarding incorrect contact information and missing documentation, they failed to address the most critical issue I raised : I never personally signed up for this student loan. It was taken out by a parent without my knowledge or consent. 

Despite clearly stating this in my original complaint, Nelnets response disregards this fundamental fact. Instead, the response treats me as the borrower based solely on their internal records and the Master Promissory Note ( MPN ) they provided a document I do not recall ever seeing, let alone signing knowingly or voluntarily. 

This lack of acknowledgment and investigation into the unauthorized nature of this debt is deeply troubling. It raises the following unresolved concerns : XXXX. XXXX XXXX : If I did not initiate this loan, how was my identity verified during the origination process? Was there any fraud prevention or verification step taken? 
2. Consent : What evidence does Nelnet have that I knowingly agreed to the terms of this loan? I request full documentation of the origination process, including IP addresses, signatures, and timestamps if electronic.

3. Negligence in Addressing Core Issue : Nelnets focus on contact information changes completely sidesteps my central claim that I did not authorize this debt.

4. Credit Reporting Harm : I am now facing significant credit score damage due to late payments on a loan I did not knowingly incur. This is unfair and damaging, especially given that I took swift action as soon as I became aware of the loans existence. 

This experience has left me feeling targeted and ignored. I am not trying to evade responsibility I am trying to clarify that I should not be held responsible for a loan I never knowingly agreed to. I ask the CFPB to ensure that Nelnet investigates this matter thoroughly and that the late payments are immediately removed from my credit report until this dispute is resolved. 

Additionally, I request a formal response from Nelnet acknowledging and addressing the possibility that this loan may have been taken out fraudulently or without my knowledge and outlining the steps they will take to investigate this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the closure of my XXXX XXXX credit card account. I have been a loyal cardholder for roughly 12 years and was extremely disappointed to learn that my account was closed without any prior notice. 

My husband and I were stationed overseas due to his active-duty military assignment and only recently returned to the United States XXXX I was not given a warning or opportunity to reactivate the account prior to closure, nor was I notified in a manner that allowed me to take timely action. 

This unexpected closure impacts more than just access to the card, it affects my long-standing credit history and financial standing. I respectfully request that Comenity Bank review this matter and consider reinstating my account, especially in light of our military service and the lack of adequate notification. 

I hope that Comenity will take this opportunity to demonstrate support for its military-affiliated customers by offering a resolution that protects my long-term credit health and acknowledges the unique challenges military families face.

Issue: Problem with the payoff process at the end of the loan — 
Company: Upstart Holdings, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I received funds from a personal loan originated by Upstart. Immediately upon receiving the funds, I contacted Upstart by phone and email to cancel the loan and return the money under my legal 3-day Right of Rescission as provided by the Truth in Lending Act ( Regulation Z ). 
Despite being well within the legal cancellation window, multiple Upstart representatives told me the loan could not be canceled and refused to provide return instructions. 
This is a violation of federal consumer protection law. I am requesting the CFPB assist in compelling Upstart to honor my rescission request, accept repayment of the full disbursed amount, and void the loan without interest, fees, or credit reporting.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX. XXXX XXXX Washington XXXX DC XXXX Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Illegal Reinsertion of Fraudulent Account FCRA Violation To whom it may concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint concerning a serious and repeated violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I am a victim of identity theft, and a fraudulent account listed as XXXX XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX ) was opened in my name without my knowledge or authorization. 

After I submitted disputes to the major credit reporting agencies, the account was initially deleted from my credit reports. However, within days, the account was reinserted without proper certification or notice, as required by law. 

Under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), a credit bureau may not reinsert previously deleted information unless the furnisher certifies the accuracy and completeness of the information, and the consumer is notified in writing within five business days of the reinsertion. Neither of these requirements has been fulfilled. 

I have also filed a fraud report with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), yet the account continues to appear on my credit reportscausing ongoing harm to my credit profile and financial well-being. 

I respectfully request the following actions : 1. That the CFPB initiate an immediate investigation into this ongoing violation of the FCRA. 
2. That the credit bureaus be required to permanently delete this fraudulent account from all of my credit reports. 
3. That enforcement action be taken against any party found to be in violation of federal consumer protection laws. 
4. That I be advised on any further legal remedies available to protect my rights. 

Attached are supporting documents, including credit report excerpts, my FTC fraud report, and relevant correspondence. 

Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment to be updated. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


EQUIFAX EXPERIAN XXXX  Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
