Complaint narrative:
I am the author of this complaint and I have attached a copy of my driver 's license and social security card to verify my identity. I tried to apply for credit and was swiftly denied, which led me to check my credit report. I noticed several creditors and collection agencies that are reporting incomplete, incorrect, and downright fraudulent information. I have attached letters below in the attachments which will show the accounts that I am calling into question. 

The credit bureaus are allowing reporting in such a way that violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. 15 USC 1681s-2b and 15 USC 1681b are being blatantly violated and from my research all parties can be held civilly liable. 

The credit bureaus are not conducting a reasonable investigation like they are obligated to do

I have disputed this with the credit bureaus and the disputes have come back complete with no changes. This means XXXX is unethically practicing reporting and collections which goes against the FCRA and compliance 2. These credit bureaus are definitely not seriously verifying the information and statements that are being placed on credit reports nor the disputes from the consumers. This is causing damage in manipulating the credit scores and history.

Product: Debt collection — Federal student loan debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: MOHELA
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
Months ago, I called Mohela to ask that my payment due date be changed to the XXXX of the month. It was formerly the XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a written message from Mohela saying that I was approved for a " new '' IDR plan that would take effect XX/XX/XXXX. My payment amount was higher with this new plan. I was on PAYE before, and PAYE now. This makes no sense as I did not apply for a new plan, and I did not re-certify my income. I did nothing to trigger this letter or payment change. Furthermore, the effective date of the plan change is XX/XX/XXXX, but they are charging me the increased amount effective now. 

I called Mohela customer service on XX/XX/XXXX for an explanation. They are claiming that merely changing my due date allows them to obtain and update my income. They claim this policy was in the " fine print '' when you apply for an IDR plan initially. I can not find evidence of Mohela 's claim anywhere. Regulations clearly show that you can change your payment due date without triggering a payment increase or change in IDR plan. 

My best guess is that they applied for PAYE with new income info, when I was already on PAYE. I absolutely did not authorize this change in any way. Their phone recordings will clearly show this. I made a very specific request to change my due date. That is it. Now, I am stuck with a higher payment amount through no fault of my own. To make matters worse, the new higher payment starts XX/XX/XXXX, but the payment increase reflected on my account immediately.

Grain continues to verify that the account belongs to me and blantly ignore all of the erros i have disputed on my credit report. 

B ) reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors- a person hsall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any credit reporting agency if ( 1 ) the person has been notified by the consumer at the address specified by the person for such notices that specific information is inaccurate and the information is infact accurate. 

Here, for the i have dipsuted for a year with all three credit buraus constantly pointing out the inconsistencies that are being report. Each time, the bureaus confirms that grain has verfied the account as accurately, however, all of these consistencies and inaccuracies remain. 

in fact, XXXX is reporting the date of last payment XXXX, and XXXX  and XXXX is XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, a clear indication that there is an inconsistency and the information is not reporting accurately. Grain is aware of this as they are the ones who provide verification to the credit reporting agencies. This is a clear willful non compliance.
