Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up to complaint # XXXX made on XX/XX/XXXX. I was led to believe that my score was dropped on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX pts and on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX pts due to reporting from my bank. Nothing else had changed on any of my accounts. Today I was informed by agent from my bank that the only thing they reported to Experian at the end of XX/XX/XXXX was that I had XXXX balance. Yet my score was still dropped. I am very concerned that they will drop my score again this month because my bank actually reported the {$400.00} withdrawal at the end of XXXX ( withdrawal was made on XX/XX/XXXX ). If bank did not report it until XX/XX/XXXX why did my score drop twice in XXXX???? 
It was my understanding that scores do not drop twice in one month unless serious changes were made. That has not happened in my case. Both times that my score was dropped I had XXXX balances across the board. I feel as though I'm being penalized for having good credit and It appears that they are just dropping scores because they can. PLEASE HELP. Thank you

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Someone has been trying to get capital one cards in my name for years and they will not take the inquires off my credit report. I have been disputing my inquires with them for years I have been sending my dispute letters to XXXX Capital one XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX  where all 3 credit bureaus say to send disputes. After calling Capital one dispute department they say I have been sending letters to the wrong department and that I need to dispute the inquires with the 3 credit bureaus. The address I was supposed to be sending disputes to is capital one XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I was told by the capital one employee. Capital one credit card applications are confusing some say they will not affect your credit and and some dont mention that they will do a hard credit pull. The XXXX Capital one credit card applications that I applied for business credit does not state anywhere that they will do a hard inquiry on your personal credit. I look for the fine writing and I can not see it anywhere on the application even though they say it is there, the place where they ask you to put your social security number they only say it is for identification purposes only it says nothing about a hard credit pull. You shouldnt have to read a book or search for something that can lower your score. That should be in big bold letters on all applications so a customer is well informed because some applications dont affect your credit but they are from the same company and you can not tell them apart.

Company: EdFinancial Services
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I had recently contacted Edfinancial following the news of Bidens Loan Forgiveness Plan in an attempt to request a refund on my payments made during covid forbearance per the CARES act. I asked Edfinancial to refund my payments but was notified of a ridiculous processing time of 150 days. I was a pell grant recipient and am therefore eligible for XXXX in forgiveness. Throughout the pandemic, I had made nearly $ XXXX in payments for my loan in an attempt to get ahead during the interest rates freeze. 

What strikes me as odd, is that Edfinancial is the ONLY student loan provider who is quoting these ridiculous wait times. XXXX, XXXX XXXX, aidvantage are only quoting 3-8 weeks turnaround time and those that I know with those loan providers are already seeing their loans reflected on their account. Whats worrying to me is that the application for forgiveness starts in XXXX and Edfinancial wont be processing any of these until early-midway next year. They stated that our loan balances wont be reinstated until the refund is processed which wont be until XXXX at the earliest for them. The interest rates and payments will resume again in XXXX. 

They told me on the phone that they can not send out confirmation emails or anything to prove that they indeed did send in our request and Ive heard of numerous people having their refund never actually get put in. I realize with the influx of calls that getting our money back could take a while but its very concerning to me that theyre saying this entire process can take 6 months to a year when every single other student loan provider has a way quicker turnaround despite having thousands of requests as well. 

They have also recently suffered a data breach and were sued for lying about student loan cancellation. All these factors combined make me distrust Edfinancial, and I believe their recent attempts at lacking transparency is simply to deceive those gullible enough to believe the we are processing it as fast as we can, we need 150 days facade they are putting up. All in an attempt to make as many clients ineligible for loan forgiveness as possible.
