Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I took out Private loans for my daughter to attend XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXf XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX in XXXX from XXXX. They changed their name to XXXX XXXX shortly after. I have two private loan that have accrued interest totaling {$28000.00} when the loans were initially for {$5000.00} each, back in XXXX. 

Navient originated predatory subprime private loans to students attending for-profit schools and colleges with low graduation rates even though it knew that a very HIGH percentage of such borrowers would be unable to repay the loans. Navient made these risky subprime loans as " an inducement to get schools to use Navient as a preferred lender '' for highly profitable federal and private loans without regard for borrowers and their families, many of whom were young, like my daughter, and ensnared in debts they could never repay. 

Navient had a multi-state settlement a few years back where they gave private loan debt relief to borrowers who had XXXX consecutive months of delinquent payments prior to XX/XX/XXXX. What a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for the people who literally struggle month to month to pay these XXXX loans!!! I can't get approved for a home. I can't get a car loan unless I pay outrageously high interest rates. If I'm even a couple days late, Navient is already calling and emailing every chance they get. I'm afraid of Navient calling my job or garnishing my wages which is why I try to be on time with payment but as a retiree it's difficult to pay for these loans and my daughter already struggles to pay the federal loans. 
My daughter applied for XXXX for the scam school XXXX XXXX XXXX and is on track to get the federal loans discharged and I want the private loans to get discharged as well. 

Navient has been sued at least half a dozen times for other predatory loan practices and illegal collection practices. 

I'm requesting the Navient School Misconduct private loan discharge application

I do not owe this debt and dont have any knowledge of this debt ( account XXXX XXXX  ) and I ask for debt validation, the purchase agreement between them and the original creditor. I have included the attachment with multiple inaccuracies across all three major credit bureaus regarding this collection. 

PORTFOLIO RC has not provided validation information under 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) but yet placed a collection on my consumer report. 

PORTFOLIO RC is violating my consumer rights by using false and misleading, misrepresentation and deceptive means. 

PORTFOLIO RC has no authority to furnish any account to a consumer reporting agency without providing any and all disclosures required by law and they are in clear violation of 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15USC 1681s-2 ( 7 ) ( a ).

PORTFOLIO RC did not follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning my account and yet shared these inaccuracies on consumer report, this is a clear violation of 15 USC 1681 ( e ) b.

Based on my experience and the evidence provided, I believe that PORTFOLIO RC has violated the following laws.

12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) : Failure to accurately validate information to consumers concerning their accounts.

2 ) 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ) : Failure to conduct proper investigation of disputed debts and provide consumers with adequate responses.

5 ) 15 USC 1681 ( e ) b Did not follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning my account.

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate these alleged violations and take appropriate actions to ensure compliance with consumer financial protection laws. Im revoking all rights of PORTFOLIO RC to contact me via emails/text/calls.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Comprehensive Resolution : Adjustment of Late Payment Entry Status Dear [ Credit Reporting Agencies ], I am writing to address the ongoing dispute regarding a late payment entry on my credit report and to request a comprehensive resolution. Specifically, I urge the revision of the late payment entry to accurately reflect a current status. 

Under the legal doctrine of estoppel by silence, as illustrated in the case of XXXX v XXXX ( Mo ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I have not been provided with evidence substantiating the alleged debt. Consequently, I am compelled to presume the absence of such proof, thereby invalidating the existence of the debt in question. 

Adherence to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) mandates the utmost accuracy and integrity in consumer reports. Therefore, it is imperative that my credit report faithfully mirrors my financial standing, devoid of any inaccuracies or unsubstantiated claims. 

I maintain with unwavering conviction that the current status attributed to the late payment entry is unjustified and incongruent with factual evidence. Consequently, amending the status to accurately portray a current, up-to-date depiction is not only equitable but essential to uphold the principles of fairness and transparency in credit reporting. 

Should obstacles arise in achieving this resolution, I reserve the right to explore alternative avenues to rectify this discrepancy. It is paramount that my credit report accurately represents my financial status, devoid of any unjustified or unverified entries. 

I implore your esteemed agencies to conduct a thorough review of this matter and to take prompt action to effect the necessary revisions. Your cooperation in resolving this issue expeditiously is greatly appreciated.

Company: CrossCountry Mortgage LLC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of 2023, I informed my mortgage company that I was having issues with my mortgage payments. I am informed that I need to fill out a loss mitigation application and was approved for " Covid 19 Recovery Modification ''. I was told the solution would be to change my mortgage rate to 7.75 into a 40-year mortgage, bringing the payment to {$3100.00}. I signed the paperwork and returned it. My mortgage was then transferred to another CrossCountry in Texas, where I started my trail payments in XXXX. I have now completed my trial payments and CrossCountry now states that they do not have any record of said 40 year mortgage. The calls are apparently recorded, and this was information disclosed and agreed to by myself and the mortgage company. The reason for the modification in the first place was to get a lower payment. I am unable to make the full payments going and this will go in default. I need this matter to be investigated. If we need to go to a court of law to play these recordings and disclosures, please advise.
