Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is suppose to resolve a dispute in 30 days. They have abused this and still have it pending after 4 months and it does not seem like they are following the Fair Credit Credit Reporting Act rules, FTC and CFPB violations. 

More than four months ago, I asked Equifax to hear my dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding a " charge off '' that was paid before the alleged charge off took place. Initially Equifax advised me they needed another 30 days. I have heard nothing in over two months. 

This has embarrassed me and my wife ( whose credit rating is perfect and she is a co-borrower on the disputed issue ). This delay affected my ability to get a timely VA refinance on my home. 

Please discipline Eqifax and require them to come into compliance with FTC and CFPB rules.

Company: Convergent Resources, Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I 've been trying to dispute this alleged collection debt of {$720.00} that XXXX XXXX ( CV ) claims I owe. I sent CV my first certified letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, which requested them to remove this false debt or send proof that validates this debt with my signature, according to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and my state laws. Valid evidence should contain my signature, agreeing that I ever had an obligation to pay them. If no such documents exist, all collection debts from XXXX XXXX should be ceased and removed from all my credit reports. 

CV replied with a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating that they completed their investigation and found the debt " valid. '' Their verification included a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX, which appears that CV contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX under " my name and current mailing address. '' That letter included an itemized bill, but no sight of any signature agreeing that I pay XXXX XXXX. CV 's evidence is invalid. 

I sent a second certified letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, which CV received on XX/XX/XXXX. I included in the letter that they failed to provide viable evidence, and I also state, " as per FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a printout of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification. '' For a second time I requested them to cease collections or send proper documents. I have not heard back from XXXX XXXX since, which further proves that this debt does not belong to me. However, they are still falsely reporting the debt on my credit reports

Company: Community Loan Servicing, LLC (formerly known as Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC)

Complaint narrative:
I had applied for a loan modification and while I was in the process XXXX XXXX XXXX was simultaneously foreclosing on me. Bayview will keep requesting for the same documents that i had sent to them back and forth and when they did no one will have a look at it. When I contacted them about the intent to file for final judgement that I had received from their attorney and that I wanted to respond, I was assured by the loan servicer XXXX XXXX not to worry because they 'll let their attorneys know that they 're working on a modification with me. Few weeks later I saw someone in front of my house taking pictures only to tell me that my house has been foreclosed. I contacted XXXX XXXX who was my asset manager to let him know what was happening. He told me not to worry because I was in the process of modification so they 'll reverse it. When he tried to get his manager XXXX XXXX to approve the modification he refused. I contacted XXXX XXXX who is the investor on the loan. They told me to contact Bayview and have them modify the loan and rescind the foreclosure. I contacted the Bayview manager XXXX XXXX who was very rude and nasty to me, and he told me there 's nothing they can do since they 've already foreclosed. I told him that i had spoken with XXXX  ID # XXXX from XXXX XXXX and had told me to tell him to modify the loan, have the foreclosure rescinded and notify XXXX XXXX but he refused to even listen to me and hanged up on my. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they told me they were launching an investigation. They assigned my case to a XXXX who was supposed to look into it. Every other day I called to get the status of my case and she was never there to answer the call. I try to speak to a different person and they kept telling me XXXX is the person assigned to my case so she 's the best person to speak it. She finally called me back on the XX/XX/XXXX and told me she 's trying to get my loan modified and that I should give her few more days. Prior to that she had requested I fax her all the paper work and my modification application to her which I did. She also told me that she was able to track my email conversation and the documents that i had sent to bayview to modify my loan. She told me that all foreclosure activity was supposed to cease when i applied for a loan modification. She assured me that she 'll work on my behalf and get my loan modified. To my amazement I receive a notification from XXXX today that my house is being auctioned. I have being lied to and treated unfairly by both Bayview loan servicing and XXXX XXXX. My children and I are going to be homeless

Company: GREAT LAKES
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Great Lakes is my student loan servicer and my loan ( Dir Stafford Sub and Unsub ) is currently past due because they used unethical and illegal means of denying me access to the income driven repayment options available to me. Each time I tried to reapply/re-enroll in the income driven program that I was already enrolled in, their website would not allow me access to the different sites that I was sent to. When I called customer service about this issue, I was told I would be sent paperwork in regards to the matter but did n't receive the paperwork so I could remain on the income-driven repayment options. On the last day of eligibility, one of their representatives called me and asked was I still interested in being enrolled in the income-driven repayment option and I told the person 'yes ' but nothing happened and a few days later, I was no longer enrolled and then the late/non-payments started being applied to my account and then it went on my credit history with the credit bureaus as non-payments when I am still eligible for the income-driven repayment options, but they would n't fix the issues with the website or send me any paperwork to keep my eligibility. Each time I 've spoken with them when they call about receiving payment, but no one at Great Lakes has fixed this issue. I need help here.
