Complaint narrative:
The late payment entries currently appearing on my credit report are inaccurate and do not accurately reflect my true payment history.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, we contacted Wells Fargo regarding suspicious activity on the debit card ending XXXX. The agent closed debit card and issued a new one. Prior to receiving the card, there was over {$12000.00} charged to the new card ending in XXXX. There were multiple large transactions. On XX/XX/XXXX, we went into Wells Fargo and spoke to associated to submit an in-person fraudulent claim. It was stated that the mail carrier must have intercepted the card. We received the card that night and went back in-person on XX/XX/XXXX with the sealed envelope. The associate called and added that information to the claim and took and shredded the card. We have spoke to multiple agents over the phone and the claim has been escalated and ultimately denied on XX/XX/XXXX. They would not provide information about the justification other than to say it was on a valid digital device. I have never used the digital wallet on any device, evidence of that should be easy to gather. My wife was also contact over the phone by someone impersonating an FBI agent that knew the username and were trying to get access to the account since the two-factor authentication had been put into place. We believe this to be fraudulent activity within Wells Fargo itself. We are now moving forward with submitting a claim with the CFPB.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint for Mohela, ED-designated servicer, and Department of Education misrepresentation and failure to advise on consolidation to be considered for the XXXX one-time payment count adjustment. 

I acknowledge I heard about the changes but did not understand if it truly impacted me. My situation was different because all of my loans are direct loans, with XXXX service provider and I make one payment. 

Prior to the XX/XX/year> deadline, I contacted MOHELA to confirm whether any action was required to ensure eligibility for the XXXX adjustment. MOHELA explicitly told me the adjustment was automatic and that no consolidation or further action was required. This was reasonable given I was only making one payment already. 

I relied on MOHELA guidance in good faith. I was never informed by MOHELA, ED, or StudentAid.gov that a formal XXXX XXXX XXXX was required. Had I been properly advised, contacted or informed, I would have consolidated before the deadline. But the messaging from ED was to rely on the service provider - along with continuous messaging to avoid scams. So reasonably, I didnt dispute or take further action. 

After the adjustment period ended earlier this year and my loans transferred to XXXX, I noticed my end dates did not change. I contacted XXXX and was told my loans did not qualify due to lack of consolidation and change to XXXX  plan, directly contradicting MOHELAs guidance. 

I asked for an investigation recently from ED. ED has declined to correct or fully investigate the impact of servicer misinformation. 

This has caused loss of more than 9 years qualifying XXXX  credit and delay or denial of forgiveness. I am requesting a manual review, correction of my XXXX payment counts, and relief consistent with the intent of the XXXX one-time adjustment.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint regarding my Dell Preferred Account, issued by XXXX. 

I was charged approximately {$600.00} in promotional interest/late promotional fees after a single late payment. This was not a pattern of missed payments, and I contacted Dell XXXX immediately after noticing the charge to request a one-time goodwill adjustment. 

Despite my prompt outreach and good-faith effort to resolve the issue directly, Dell XXXX refused to remove or adjust the promotional interest. The amount charged is punitive and disproportionate to the nature of the late payment, especially given my prior payment history. 

I am willing and able to pay the balance in full immediately if the promotional interest is removed or fairly adjusted. I believe this charge is unfair and inconsistent with reasonable consumer credit practices. 

I am requesting that XXXXDell XXXX review this matter and provide a goodwill reversal or credit of the promotional interest added due to this one-time late payment. 

Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. ''

Complaint narrative:
I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file! 

All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : [ XXXX  XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency. 
FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information. 
TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period. 
Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

1681i.
