I recently submitted a request for investigation of an Acct Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX Reported : XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Reported : XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX I Reported : XXXX. XXXX, XXXX CHILD SUPPORT Reported : XXXX. XXXX, XXXX Ive submitted enough information regarding the fraudulent account thats open in my name I have provided information for your company to have carried out a reasonable investigation of this dispute. If you had investigated properly rather then using your e-Oscar system you would have noticed that this account is not mine which your companies have claimed to Verified. Since youve obviously neglected to investigate this account thoroughly I am demanding you remove this account off my profile. It is at this time that I will point out the in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Equifax et, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldnt merely Parrot information from the creditors and collection agencies that they have conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and honesty/integrity of the creditors/CA in question. Sending out a generic form through the e-Oscar system that doesnt even contain my reasons for the dispute is not reasonable.

If you dont initiate an investigation regarding my dispute, as it is my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I will have to take legal action to protect my credit rating and myself. Which Im sure you are aware each violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows damages of {$1000.00} should this matter ends up in court. 
I look forward to an expedite resolution of this matter Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX has added a debt to my credit report that I have no knowledge of. The amount of the debt is {$170.00} and I am requesting this amount to be removed. The date this account was opened was XX/XX/2023. This negative reporting of an account I have no knowledge of has affected my ability to obtain future credit and it needs to be removed ASAP. I have sent a request to the company to have a debt validation letter sent to my address along with the original application with my signature for this account. If the company is unable to provide this information I am requesting for this account to be removed from my credit report. 

I have filed a dispute with Equifax and they have somehow confirmed this account belongs to me when it obviously does not.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Westlake Financial to request a number to end my car loan. 

My contract has 72 installments with a XX/XX/year> maturity date. Each installment amounted to {$330.00}, and a balance of {$6000.00} remains. The reason for this balance is that there were some postponed payments, which means I would have to make 8 more payments after XX/XX/year>. 

After receiving a copy of my payment history from Westlake Financial, I created a spreadsheet with all payments made. I highlighted the payments equal to or greater than {$330.00}. See the amounts : Amount Financed : {$14000.00} Mature Date : XX/XX/year> Amount Paid : {$21000.00} Balance : {$5800.00} I am seeking assistance in identifying whether I am being charged usurious rates and how the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) can help me.

Complaint narrative:
I have been having EXTREME difficulty getting ahold of mohela with any meaningful response regarding my IDR application since consolidating back on XX/XX/XXXX. They processed the consolidation but did not complete the IDR application ( despite my income being {$32000.00} ). Due to inability to contact anyone I resubmitted an application on XX/XX/XXXX. After another month of me trying to contact them they denied both applications and said it was " due to studentaid.gov. '' Ultimately I called and escalated with Mohela telling me to resubmit an application ( which they did over the phone ) on XX/XX/XXXX. They then submitted a duplicate IDR application on XX/XX/XXXX. After a lack of processing XXXX weeks later I called and they then needed " additional documentation of proof of income. '' I then submitted that on XX/XX/XXXX which is listed as " processing. '' I contacted them two weeks ago and they said because of the manual verification to " give it another 15 business days. '' Now I am XXXX business days out from supporting documents, and XXXX from the IDR application. I was on the phone for 3 hours with them on XX/XX/XXXX with a total of 10 and was transferred several times to only be told to give it more time. This is incredibly frustrating.
