Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I have tried on multiple occasions, to dispute the inaccuracy being reported on my credit report from a collection agency, XXXX XXXX, with regard to a previous account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CA. 

I moved in the apartment at XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/2019. I paid a security deposit of {$4300.00}. My rent was {$2100.00} monthly. 

I moved out in XX/XX/2019, with 2 months of rent owed in the amount of {$4300.00}. 

I should only owe {$80.00} to XXXX XXXX, as they kept my entire security deposit when I moved out. I never received any itemized bills stating that there were any damages, so the entire {$4300.00} in security deposit fees should have taken care of my balance due.

Complaint narrative:
Dear PayPal Customer Support Team, I am writing to express my strong dissatisfaction with the permanent limitation placed on my PayPal account with the email address XXXX. I believe that this limitation has been placed by mistake, and I would like to submit a formal complaint to appeal this PayPal decision. 

I would like to emphasize that I have not violated any PayPal policies or engaged in any activities that warrant such a severe action. Therefore, I would like to kindly request PayPal to re-investigate my case thoroughly and restore my account if possible. 

As a long-standing PayPal user, I have always followed PayPal 's policies and procedures and have never faced any issues with my account. Therefore, I am confident that this limitation is a result of a mistake, and I urge you to re-evaluate the situation carefully. 

I understand the importance of maintaining the integrity of the PayPal platform and the need to take swift action against any policy violations. However, in my case, I have not committed any such violations, and I am confident that a re-investigation will prove my innocence. 

In light of the above, I respectfully request that you conduct a thorough investigation of my account and restore it as soon as possible. I hope that this issue can be resolved promptly and efficiently, and I look forward to a positive resolution of this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, [ XXXX XXXX ]

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX I filed bankruptcy. That bankruptcy was discharged in XX/XX/XXXX. My Sallie Mae private student loans were included in this discharge. But very shortly after I received communication from Sallie Mae stating I still owed these loans a payment was to restart. Theyve sent me bills every month since and Ive paid them for around 5 years now, ( because they told me I had to ). I have paid off my one loan completely and am only down to around {$900.00}. XXXX on my second loan. I just received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from Sallie Mae stating my loan ( singular since my other is paid off ) has been included in a bankruptcy discharge. I called and they confirmed their bankruptcy department was working on discharging my loan. The problem is Ive paid them around {$16000.00} already on 2 loans that were discharged in XXXX because they told me I had to. If I was late on payments they called over and over and charged me late fees. I want all my money back every cent Ive paid since XX/XX/XXXX.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with additional products or services purchased with the loan
Company: CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I got my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I purchased the vehicle they said the only bank I could use was credit acceptance. I was told that everything that was included with the loan had to be in it, such as warranty, service fees etc and that if I didn't agree to these extras I wouldn't be able to use credit acceptance as a lender. I then find out later that I had a choice. This loan ended up being much more than was disclosed when purchasing the vehicle. And because of these extra inflated costs it was hard to keep up on payments especially with outrageous late fees. I was in desperate need of a vehicle, they knew I would be unable to afford it but used my desperation to their advantage and convinced me otherwise. So I ended up defaulting, getting my car repossessed twice and the second time it was repossessed it was sold in auction for 3 times less than the blue book value of the car. They sold it in auction for XXXX dollars. And even after it was sold they are still adding interest to the loan making it even harder to get out of debt. Because of their tactics I lost my job, can't afford another vehicle because I am denied for every loan and am still to this day having a hard time keeping a job due to no vehicle and no reliable way to get to work. Within the first 2 weeks of purchasing the vehicle it ended up having a lot of issues making the vehicle so it couldn't be driven. I tried to use the service contract that I was duped into, and was denied for evert claim through them as well as the dealership that I purchased it from. This company is extremely rude when you try to reach out to them for support and they talk you down and tell you straight out that " you shouldn't have got a loan that you couldn't afford '' yet they add all these extra fees and make it seem like you have to get these extras to even be considered for a loan. They used the fact that I was poor, with poor credit and desperate. Credit Acceptance should not be allowed to continue this fraudulent behavior and should be shut down.
