Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ). 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors.

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion. 

I am also placing a FTC reference number- # XXXX so that you can verify the inaccuracy of fraud that is placed on my credit report. 

Now based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation. 

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Problem with customer service
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
**Please note, this is NOT a duplicate request. The SAVE application has now been processed BUT extra interest has been charged due to Nelnet 's incompetency. This is not a duplicate request but an issue with interest, not my SAVE application** Background : I submitted a SAVE application through StudentAid.gov on XX/XX/XXXX as part of the new beta roll-out. StudentAid.Gov confirmed the completed application and sent this to Nelnet, my loan servicer. No response from Nelnet whatsoever. I re-applied via StudentAid.gov on XX/XX/XXXX again. No response from Nelnet. I applied on Nelnet directly on XX/XX/XXXX. No response. I called Nelnet customer service multiple days throughout late XXXX, averaging 2.5-3 hours on hold. I finally had to re-apply via phone on XX/XX/XXXX. I received notice shortly after that I was approved to be on the SAVE IDR plan, but at a cost that was significantly higher than what I should owe based on my income. In my XXXX taxes, I was earning slightly over XXXX USD/year. I was laid off XX/XX/XXXX. Since my new role in XX/XX/XXXX, I now earn XXXX USD and supplied all documentation to support this with paystubs. No response from Nelnet. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX and my information was submitted to correct the problem and I was placed into forbearance and interest is now accruing while my application is stuck. In the first complaint I sent ( XXXX ), the issue with the application has been resolved. 

**NEW ISSUE** : However, because Nelnet took so long to respond, interest accrued during this time when- if my application was processed in due-time prior to payments restarting- I should not have gained ANY interest on my account in accordance with the SAVE plan. Due to Nelnet taking many months to respond to my issues and ignoring any emails and phone calls, I accrued over {$300.00} in interest during this " admin forbearance '' time when I followed all procedures and policies set forth by the federal government in regards to loan repayments. I demand that Nelnet wave the $ XXXX interest accrued during this period as it was their fault and delay that caused this interest to accrue, not mine.
