Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
CFPB Complaint against Chase / XXXX  Disputed amount : {$1300.00} Claim # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : filed a claim for {$1300.00} against XXXX XXXX. Transaction date : XX/XX/XXXX. Chase places a temporary credit for this amount in my checking account. 

XX/XX/XXXX : Called Chase on XX/XX/XXXX explaining the claim was filed in error and to withdraw the claim. Agent said the temporary credit would be withdrawn and the claim would be closed. 

XX/XX/XXXX : Chase notifies they have stopped researching the claim and removed {$1300.00} from my account, saying it would take place on or after XXXX. 

XX/XX/XXXX : Received email correspondence from XXXX XXXX ( my apartment company ) that my XX/XX/XXXX payment was returned due to a dispute, instructed me to pay this amount immediately, and that I was being charged a late fee of {$50.00}. Also threatened to sue me for this amount. ( see attached ). 

Spoke to Chase claims, who said that the amount was on the merchants end, XXXX, and to recover the amount from XXXX. Confused by this statement since XXXX usually directs consumers to deal with the bank, not with XXXX. 

E-mailed XXXX, and their rep said they could not help because transactions are confidential and to continue working with Chase. 

Called Chase claims again asking for a supervisor or someone in the presidents office, and was transferred to the claims department. Agent # 2 said that the amount will take XXXX to be returned to the merchant and that I should have a credit with the merchant. 

Paid the rent amount to XXXX XXXX, including the late fee, and let them know that it was due to a dispute that was filed in error and that it should have been closed. Also informed them to be aware of a double payment for XXXX in the near future. 

XXXX : Have not heard from either party so proceeding to file a complaint with the CFPB.

Complaint narrative:
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Re : Formal Complaint against Experian for Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally report a grievance against Experian, a credit bureau XXXX for their alleged violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. I sent a certified letter to Experian, addressed to the XXXX XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX, seeking the validation of a debt related to a closed account with an open balance that is inaccurately reported as past due. The subject account pertains to my relationship with XXXX  and has a reported opening date of XX/XX/XXXX, and an outstanding balance of {$230.00}. 

The FCRA, under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ), grants consumers the right to request verification of debts reported on their credit reports that they believe to be inaccurate or incomplete. My certified letter to Experian requested such verification of the debt associated with the mentioned account. Specifically, I sought information that would enable me to ascertain the validity and accuracy of the reported debt. 

Experian 's response to my request, however, has been unsatisfactory. The credit bureau failed to provide the essential information required to validate the debt, as stipulated by the FCRA. Instead, Experian continues to report the account as past due, which is having a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness. This reporting is in contravention of the FCRA 's provisions, specifically Sections 1681e ( b ) and 1681i, which mandate the accurate reporting of consumer credit information and the requirement to investigate disputed information. 

I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) investigate this matter promptly, as Experian 's actions appear to be in violation of the FCRA. It is my belief that Experian 's failure to comply with the FCRA has caused substantial harm to my credit standing, potentially affecting my ability to access credit, employment opportunities, and other financial activities. 

In accordance with the FCRA, I would appreciate the CFPB 's assistance in addressing this issue and ensuring that Experian adheres to its obligations under the law. I have attached copies of the certified letter sent to Experian, as well as any correspondence received from them in response to my request. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to the CFPB 's involvement and assistance in resolving this dispute in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Mohela has been contacted again and stated they will try again and reassured me this information regarding pay off is still listed on their website However, I have retain personal copies of both letters. I tried a third time by submitting the same information in writing along with copies of the letters from Mohela only to receive the same results.

Company: MOHELA
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
My MOHELA account was unexpectedly placed into forbearance in XX/XX/XXXX. I did not request this forbearance, as I am completing payments for Public Service Loan Forgiveness and XX/XX/XXXX would've been my 120th payment. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a message stating my first payment was due XX/XX/XXXX. However, when I logged into my MOHELA account on XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed my account status had changed to forbearance although I never requested this. 

I contacted MOHELA three times ( twice over the phone on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and once in writing on XX/XX/XXXX ) requesting to change my status to repayment. I was told they would change it, but they never did. Now on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a message with a statement attached stating my loans are in forbearance until XX/XX/XXXX! This is the opposite of what I requested! On top of the complete incompetence and mismanagement of my account, it takes 2.5 to 3 hours of holding to speak to anyone. Waiting to talk to someone doesn't do any good though, as they have failed to meet any requests regarding my account.
