State: OR

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX, sent message inquiring about loan status and whether I had a payment due and what was due. Was told my loans were still in forbearance and that the amounts on studentaid.gov were inaccurate ( due to forbearance ) but to call for more information about what my payments would be. Attempted to call on lunch break- no response ( long hold ). 

I applied for the Graduated Extended plan and the message stated I would hear back in 5-7 business days ... but I never did. So I reapplied and months later, nothing. 
XXXX XXXX I reached out inquiring about my application for repayment and they apologized stating my application is still processing and they would get back to me asap. Ive yet to hear back. 
XX/XX/XXXX, I received a very confusing statement showing due dates from back in XXXX along with a repay date of XX/XX/XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received another confusing statement showing a due date of XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX I received another billing statement stating I owe {$0.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX, I reapplied for the Graduated Extended plan just in case after hearing about their online issues. I've not heard anything back. 

XXXX XXXX I received notice that there is an application processing delay and that I'll hear back in 90 DAYS if I'm approved or not. 

I started this process early so that I could prepare for payments. I have near perfect credit and take my finances seriously. I need to know what my payments will be so I can make my budget. Now I won't know if I'm approved for the affordable plan ( Graduated Extended ) for 90 MORE days ... this is absolutely ridiculous.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint against XXXX, a supplemental consumer credit agency, for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by furnishing information about me to Transunion without my consent. 

On XX/XX/2023, XXXX furnished a consumer report about me to Transunion without my written permission. This is a violation of Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( A ) of the FCRA, which prohibits consumer reporting agencies from furnishing consumer reports without the consumer 's written permission. 

I have not provided XXXX with my written permission to furnish consumer reports about me to any third parties. I am very concerned about the fact that XXXX has violated my privacy rights by furnishing a consumer report about me without my consent. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and take appropriate action against XXXX. I am also requesting that the CFPB require XXXX to destroy all copies of the consumer report that it furnished to Transunion without my consent. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. 

Law codes violated by XXXX : * Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : 15 U.S.C. 1681-1681x.

* Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( A ) of the FCRA : 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 3 ) ( A ).
