Complaint narrative:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) ), adverse information such as late payments may not be reported more than seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the negative status. I have disputed having late payments on my student loan accounts with TransUnion because the first date of delinquency with Aidvantage was XX/XX/2018. The other credit reporting agencies have already removed this adverse history. 

I spoke with a " specialist '' today at TransUnion named XXXX regarding this adverse history still being reported and after an hour of conversation her reasoning was " I can understand your concern, Since the accounts are reported as deferred. You need to contact your lender to correct this. '' I have already reached out to Aidvantage ( who is the creditor of my student loans ) and they advised me to dispute this with TransUnion.

Attempted to access my disclosure report at Chex System. Had to register for access but multiple efforts failed. Called by phone and spent tortuous long minutes trying to speak with an individual who had a strong foreign accent and was extremely hard to understand! What prompted my attempt to connect with Chex Systems was that a bank I tried to open a new account with denied me because of Chex Systems disclosure report. I could get no information from their agent and have to wait for my report to arrive by " snail mail ''.

Company: MOHELA
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I sent in a complaint on XX/XX/XXXX ; here it is " My student loan balance increased dramatically over the last month. This is a major error. The accrued interest increased from approximately {$4200.00} to approximately {$33000.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. I first noticed the increase in my MOHELA account in XXXX, and now I notice the increase on my FSA account as of XX/XX/XXXX as well. I have documentation going back to when my loans transitioned to MOHELAs new system, in XX/XX/XXXX, stating my correct principal and accrued interest balance. These balances stayed relatively steady up until the large increase. Furthermore, I have now noticed my balance is increasing everyday even though I should be on the SAVE forbearance ; which according to MOHELA should be interest free. I have tried contacting MOHELA, however, I have not been able to get through to customer service after waiting multiple hours and getting disconnected many times. I have also heard from other loan borrowers that the customer service is no help anyway. And, depending on the representative you get, you get different answers to the same questions. This is very concerning at this time and I would like this to be resolved as soon as possible. Thank you for your help. '' This is still my problem. I have reached back out to both Mohela and FSA and they both state that it is the other companies problem and it will " eventually '' be fixed. But it has not. 
I also reached out the my congresswoman and she is currently looking into it, but has no information. And I tried reaching out to the Maryland student loan ombudsman, but I haven't heard back This is very frustrating, especially since there is news now that the Save forbearance I am on will start actually accruing interest in XXXX. I would like to be able to switch to a different repayment plan, but I am fearful the incorrect interest amount won't get fixed if I did this. 

I need Mohela/FSA to remove this incorrect accrued interest and stop the current interest accrual so I can switch plans and and get back to paying my loans back

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because Equifax failed to respond to my credit dispute within the time frame required by the FCRA. I submitted my dispute on XX/XX/year> and did not receive a response within the XXXX deadline required. 

When I finally received a response, it was late and only provided a generic statement that the accounts were verified without any supporting documentation or proof that a proper investigation was completed. This does not meet the FCRA 's requirements for a reasonable investigation. Equifax also failed to provide the procedure they used to verify the information, as required under FCRA. Without this explanation, I have no way to confirm whether the information on my credit report is accurate or how they determined its accuracy. I am requesting that Equifax provide the method of verification, including who verified the accounts and the documents used.
