This email asked me to reset my password and review recent transactions for unauthorized activity. I ignored this email because no response was required and no unauthorized activity had occurred. 

A few days later, I received an email about Chime using account restrictions to place a hold on my account and that this hold will only be removed once ID documents are resent. On XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed XXXX and received a response from a team member named " XXXX '' stating that I would have to call in because " these issues can only be resolved by speaking with one of our agents. '' Each time correspondence over email is redirected to phone and vice versa. After, this XXXX started sending me messages stating, " this email is not monitored. '' This is where there is a deceptive practice in misleading the consumer. 

Despite Chime 's own policy stating that all that is required to remove this temporary hold is the account verification duly done, the hold has not been removed. Over the past 10 days, the consumer has sent her ID verifications and selfie over 7-8 times. Each time, the consumer is told on call to email and vice versa. On email ( XXXX ), it says this email is not monitored. The consumer spent 10 hours on call repeating the verification process multiple process to be given no date on which she will be notified or accurate information given when the documents were approved with her DL and passport both offered along with a selfie which their system said has been accepted each time. As per Chime 's statements, this was all that was required to remove the hold. In violation of their own policy due to no other reason except the one described here. 

It is requested in the interest of justice and equity that this matter be expeditiously involved to prevent further disruptions to pay for expenses.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem with your payment plan
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I have multiple student loans serviced by DEPTEDXXXX, which have been on my credit report for over a decade. These loans have been in forbearance since I graduated in XXXX, as I have been unable to secure gainful employment that would allow me to repay them. Despite this, the loans continue to negatively impact my credit report, preventing me from obtaining stable housing and even some employment opportunities, as certain employers review credit reports. 

Here are the relevant details of the loans : - Opened between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX  Total balances range from {$1900.00} to {$10000.00}. 
XXXX  Payments are listed as current, but the loans are still in forbearance due to my financial hardship. 

I have a child to support and have struggled to provide basic necessities, including housing, because these loans continue to limit my ability to qualify for assistance or improve my financial standing. I am requesting a review of whether these loans should remain on my credit report, as they have been in forbearance for over 11 years without progress, and are hindering my ability to achieve financial stability. 

Additionally, I have disputed these loans on my credit report in the past, but the disputes were resolved in favor of the servicer. I am seeking assistance to find a resolution, whether through removal of the loans from my report or other remedies to address this ongoing issue. 

Thank you for your help in addressing this matter.
