Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have been dealing with these fraudulent accounts for years, yet they still appear on XXXX of my credit bureaus. The following are the multiple fraudulent accounts listed on my credit report : XXXX. Nelnet- {$3600.00} XXXX. Nelnet- {$3500.00} XXXX. Nelnet- {$2200.00} XXXX. Nelnet- {$2200.00} I have been diligently working to address and resolve the inaccuracies on my credit report, particularly with regard to the ( XXXX ) fraudulent accounts opened under my name by Nelnet. Despite my efforts, I have encountered challenges in settling this matter with the loan company. Each time I reach out, I am informed that a case has been submitted and that I will be contacted. However, I have yet to receive any follow-up or resolution from them. This has been a frustrating and ongoing issue for me. 

I have disputed these accounts with all the credit bureaus. XXXX removed the fraudulent accounts. However, XXXX and XXXX have not taken action to remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report. Despite my continued efforts to rectify this situation, these accounts persist on my credit reports. This ongoing issue is hindering our ability to purchase a home, as I am being wrongfully held accountable for debts that are not mine. 

I am at a loss for what steps to take next and am feeling frustrated by the lack of progress in resolving this matter. 

I want to clarify that I have never signed or agreed to open these accounts with Nelnet. Despite my repeated requests, the loan company has failed to provide any documents proving that I authorized or agreed to these accounts. This is because such documents do not exist, as I have never consented to these accounts and they are indeed fraudulent. 

My continued efforts to resolve this issue have been met with delays and lack of cooperation from the loan company, which is preventing me from clearing my name and moving forward with purchasing a home. 

I am hopeful that you can provide me with some assistance regarding this issue, as I am feeling quite overwhelmed and unsure of how to proceed. Your help would be greatly appreciated, and I am grateful for all that you do. Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and not insured. The other party 's insurance attorney Thomas George Associates mailed me a collection letter for the cost they are holding me responsible for totaling {$1600.00}. The company then reported a different amount owed to the Department of Transportation totaling {$3500.00} without ever sending me any explanation or proof of this balance. I emailed Thomas George Associates representative XXXX XXXX to send the proof of how the balance due jumped from XXXX to {$3500.00}. His response was that it was for paying rental car expenses to the other party and that the balance was now actually at {$3900.00}. Again, no proof or documentation was ever provided for the additional charges that have again spiked without explanation. This repair was completed in less than 7 days.The math is not mathing.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I converted a lease with Ally Financial into an auto loan and they did not set me up with the online dashboard to make payments. So I had to make a payment through a third party that registered the payment with Ally Financial several days after. Ally Financial is reporting a 30 day late on my credit report for the month of XX/XX/2023 when I indeed paid it before the 30 days. I attached proof of when the payment came out of my account. I've been a customer with Ally for almost 5 yrs and would like to continue this relationship so I would appreciate if this manner gets resolved expeditiously as I'm in the process of purchasing a home for my family.
