Company: AES/PHEAA
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Previous CFPB # XXXX AES sent a letter that stated that the late pays would be removed from my account. I have been receiving credit agency emails stating that my account has been corrected. After contacting the agencies they state balance has been updated and late fees removed but XXXX late pay in XXXX is still showing on report. I 'm in the process of obtaining a XXXX loan on my home and this is causing an issue with the rate due to damage to my XXXX XXXX. 

I 'm confused on why the reporting agencies are permitted to add derogatory info to accounts without first alerting the consumer? It took them XXXX day to ruin my perfect credit and its going to take XXXX days to repair after fighting with AES for XXXX months. 

Can this dispute also be sent to all XXXX credit report agencies? I will gladly complete XXXX more disputes is this is what it takes for them to correct this issue. 

Thank you so much!!!

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I have had so many issues with Wells Fargo private student loans. I have been making payments and even paid well over my monthly amount to take care of the outstanding late payments. Every single month the amount has consistently been increasing and not decreasing despite my attempts to pay it off and work with the company. They harasse me none stop. I was asked to provide a break down of all payments made along with any fees assessed so that I could take a look at where this is all coming from and I have yet to receive that information. I know for a fact that I called and set up payment and not only was the payment not taken out I was given a late fee and hit on my credit report. This is ridiculous. How long is the Finacial governing agency going to let banks get away with this type of robbery? This has caused me physical and emotional distress. I think any student that took out private student loans should be able to convert them into federal student loans. Wells Fargo continues to rob the people who choose to given them their business. The CEO is a cockroach and when you find one in the kitchen there are many many many more. I urge you to help students who went to school to make there lives better, remedy what is happening. This is exactly what happened with the housing crisis except with student loans. We need relief from this the same way people were able to get realif from the  housing crash. Im sick of being constantly robbed and loving pay check to pay check trying to pay amounts that arent justified.

After noticing the debt on my credit report, and noticing my credit report also states I have made a payment to Convergent and I have NOT, I sent a letter to XXXX XXXX ( here on out referred to as XXXX ) via XXXX requesting debt validation. 

A request was made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. As stated in the law, XXXX did not cease collection activities, in fact, they continued reporting to the credit bureau. To date, I have not received a letter, or phone call from XXXX or any attempts by the debt collector to validate the debt they believe I owe. It has been more than several months since they placed the debt on my credit report, and more than 1 month since I requested validation.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My American Express bill was due on XX/XX/XXXX. The total due was {$29.00}. Admittedly, I forgot to pay the bill on time and did not pay it until XX/XX/XXXX. The late fee for a {$29.00} charge is {$27.00}, which is almost a late fee of 100 %. I would say that this is usurious, but it 's not an interest rate. It is, however, unfair and abusive. 

Please investigate them and have the charge removed from my account. This ridiculous. I have had an account with American Express for 24 years and have never been late. The fee is completely disproportionate to the bill. Rather than set fees, perhaps they should charge a percentage, like mortgage companies.
