Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
Credit reporting company failed to investigate or respond to a mailed dispute within 30 days, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a formal written dispute letter to Equifax regarding several inaccurate and unverifiable negative items on my credit report. My letter detailed specific errors, included references to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and contained all the necessary documentation to verify my identity including a copy of my government-issued ID, Social Security card , and proof of address. 

The items I disputed included : XXXX inaccurate 30-day late payment reporting that contradicts payment records and other bureau data . 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX false and inconsistent 30-day late entry on an active auto loan that is current and paid on time. 

XXXX  inquiry unauthorized inquiry that I did not approve. 

Incorrect address ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, SC XXXX ) not associated with me and should be removed.

My dispute specifically requested Equifax to investigate and verify each entry and to provide the results within 30 days of receipt, as required under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ). 
However, as of XX/XX/year>, I have not received any acknowledgment, investigation results, or response from Equifax. This failure to respond within the legally required timeframe represents a clear violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ).

Equifaxs inaction has caused continued damage to my credit reputation, hindered access to fair credit opportunities, and prolonged the reporting of false and unverifiable information.

Violation Summary ( FCRA References ) : FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) : Requires consumer reporting agencies to investigate disputes within 30 days.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) : Requires written notice of investigation results.

FCRA 607 ( b ) : Requires maximum possible accuracy in the reporting of information.

Equifaxs failure to fulfill these obligations constitutes noncompliance with federal consumer protection law.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year> I changed my Auto pay and after a month went by I noticed with Mohela which took over XXXX XXXX XXXX loans did not take the payment.

Logged in again and seen that it showed I had no autopayment setup. Setup autopay again and gave it 24 hours. I called customer service for navient borrowers and the lady i spoke with swore i had no auto pay. Coarsened me into setting up a rate reduction program as they claim i had no auto pay even though i told them several times. Even during the call she was reading off the information that wasn't even mine. Finally got the right information on her screen and still claimed i had no autopay setup. The rate reduction only saved me about {$10.00} a month. Now fast foward a few weeks the payment came out on the date and then following XXXX more days the date the auto pay should come out came out... JUST as i had told XXXX I had setup. 

I called back again and spoke with someone else .. and dug through everything They got it all canceled and setup with my normal auto pay just to clean the mess up .. they kept trying to XXXX up XXXX rate to a higher amount. We escalated the matter and they actually fixed it and got my payment situation taken care of after listening to the calls as I asked them to do.... as I kept getting the run around about being in rate reduction programs prior to sept. which i was never in.... 

Now i had to update my payment XXXX last time due to some banking problems and it yetagain forced me to un-enroll my auto pay and set a bran new one up. This time instead of my normal payment amount it increased almost {$20.00} from no where ; and the customer service and supervisors keep saying my normal payment is XXXX a month but online is XXXX but my normal payment I have been paying for well over 2 years is XXXX This company keeps giving the run around ; they change your payments no a whim for any reason they can just like the online complaints against this servicer with federal loans. 

I'm still fighting with them just to set my account and payments exactly they way they were before they messed with my account. Instead of doing the right thing they keep making excuses. One rep says my interest rate was 4.7 % then changed to 17 % and then another says while my payments were correct my intrest was 17 % and no change .. then says well we capitalized {$39.00} of interests so it forced your payments up... well if i divide {$39.00} by 21 months left of payment terms that does not add up even accounting for interest... 

I have asked them over and over and over to fix all they do is make excuses to get more money out of you they are not owed.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The reported entries are inaccurate and do not reflect my true payment history. I have made several attempts to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, but no substantial action has been taken. Even after submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the errors remain unresolved. This situation has created financial hardship and has significantly impacted my well-being. Addressing these inaccuracies has become a stressful and exhausting process. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that truthfully represents my financial history, including the prompt correction of any outdated or incorrect information. I respectfully request immediate action to correct or remove these late payment entries. Failure to do so would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I expect a swift and appropriate resolution.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2025, I mailed a written dispute letter to TransUnion regarding multiple inaccurate and inconsistent negative items appearing on my credit report, including but not limited to accounts with XXXXXX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX and a public bankruptcy record. 
In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I included copies of my government-issued ID, Social Security card , and proof of address to verify my identity and establish that the dispute was indeed sent by me. Despite this, on XX/XX/2025, TransUnion sent me a letter stating : We recently received a request that included your information, but it didn't appear that you or a properly authorized third party sent it to us. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously, so we won't process requests unless they come directly from you or an authorized third party. 
This statement is false and misleading, as the dispute was personally mailed and signed by me, and I provided all required identification documents. By refusing to process my dispute, TransUnion violated my rights under the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. XXXXi ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation when a consumer disputes the accuracy or completeness of information in their file. 
Failure to Conduct a Reasonable Reinvestigation Under 15 U.S.C. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ), TransUnion must investigate disputed information within XX/XX/XXXX days. Their refusal to do so, despite proper documentation, constitutes noncompliance. 

Failure to Maintain Maximum Possible Accuracy Under 15 U.S.C. XXXX ( b ), TransUnion must ensure that information in my credit file is accurate and complete. Their continued reporting of inaccurate data without investigation breaches this duty. 

Negligent or Willful Noncompliance By dismissing a legitimate dispute and failing to follow established verification procedures, TransUnions conduct appears negligent and possibly willful under XXXX and XXXX, making them liable for damages.
