Issue: Getting a credit card — Card opened without my consent or knowledge
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I received three confirmation emails from Citi Bank regarding changes to my account, confirmation of credit card application, and approval email for a Citi Double Cash  card with a {$9400.00} limit as of XXXX. I also saw a hard credit pull on my credit report. I have never applied for a Citi Bank card. 

I CAN NOT get through to Citi Bank to notify them of this identity theft. They continuously require an account or credit card number which I don't have. I spoke with three representatives who transferred me to other departments, with the final representative only willing to give me another phone number. When I called the number provided, I got stuck in the automated wheel requesting information I DON'T have because I didn't open the account.

Complaint narrative:
I'm writing to express my deep concern about the lack of my credit information from your bureau. As a careful customer who regularly examines their credit profile, I am concerned about the recent discovery that crucial information appears to be missing from your records. Despite my proactive approach to managing my finances and making timely payments on all accounts, I have faced major challenges as a result of the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused annoyance, but it has also left me in a hazardous position, particularly in light of recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made repeated attempts to resolve this issue through your customer support channels, but the process has been lengthy and inefficient. As a result, I am experiencing unnecessary obstacles to receiving crucial financial services and opportunities.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem with forgiveness, cancellation, or discharge
Company: MOHELA
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I went back to law school as an non traditional student and a mother. I graduated in 2010. I immediately started verifying my education for the PSLF program. I am on on IBR program. I have worked for the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. I made 120 payments in XXXX so I should be eligible for loan forgiveness. I turned in what should have been my final Employment. Verification Form in early XXXX. There has been no movement on my counts or moving me towards discharge. I discovered that the form needed to be submitted electronically because they are not processing manual forms. So I did in XXXX. My accounts updated to XXXX because of the XXXX transition of Mohela. 

We were told that the transition would not affect PSLF. I asked for buyback but resigned myself to paying 2 more months. 

Mohela put me in a year long forbearance so I can not pay those two months. I have asked repeatedly to please be removed from forbearance. I received a notice today that my forbearance dates have changed- the moved the dates up five days. I am desperately trying to finish my payments so that I can be forgiven. 

As an aside, they took two months payments XXXX and XXXX. But they do not count because of the forbearance. I desperately need someone to help me. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX

I have made bi-weekly payments for approximately 1 year, as well as paying ahead of time 2 months of mortgage payments. PHH mortgage continues to misapply the payments and subsequently charge me late fees, despite no missed payments and 2 additional monthly payments being made. I have made in excess of 30 phone calls to the company and spent dozens of hours on hold attempting to resolve. Despite never having a late payment PHH mortgage has now dubbed me a preferred client, which only their Escalation Managers can assist. Except they are no Escalation Managers, I have been on hold for 4 hours today, and 3 hours yesterday. These practices are deceptive and illegal.

Dear CFPB Representative, Dispute of Innacurate Late Payment Reporting Account reference XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Acct. XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Request for inaccurate late payments based on FCRA specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681 I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a critical issue with the inaccurate reporting of late payments on my credit report, specifically concerning the accounts referenced with XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Acct. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct. XXXX upon thorough review, I have identified discrepancies in the reporting, and it appears that there may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681. The reported late payments on the aforementioned accounts are inconsistent with my payment history. I would like to bring to your attention that, to the best of my knowledge and records, I have consistently paid these accounts on time, in accordance with the agreed upon terms.

Reference to PAANL ( Paid as Agreed Never Late ) The terms of our agreement have always been adhered to, and the accounts in question should reflect a status of Paid as Agreed Never Late ( Paanl ) based on the timely payments made. It is imperative that my credit report accurately represents my financial and commitment to meeting payment obligations.

I hereby request that you provide documented proof supporting the claim of late payments on these accounts, in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681i of the FCRA, this proof should include specific details such as dates, amounts, and any relevant communication indicating that the payments were indeed late. In the absence of valid proof, I expect the credit reporting to be rectified promptly.

If, after a thorough investigation you are unable to provide verifiable proof of late payments, I demand that the account be promptly updated to reflects its accurate status as Paid as Agreed Never Late. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681s ( 2 ) ( A ) ( 1 ) of the FCRA Creditors and Credit Reporting Agencies are required to report information accurately and completely. Additionally, I remind you that you must conduct a timely investigation and provide a written response within response 30 days from the receipt of this dispute letter, as required by 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( A ) ( 1 ). Failure to adhere to this timeline will be considered a violation of the FCRA.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution that aligns with the legal obligations outlined by the FCRA. Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining the accuracy and fairness of my credit report. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
