It has been 3 months now and they still have not corrected this error. When I call in they still confirm that is an error on there part and they are still working on corrections. The promotion is set to expire in XXXX of XXXX according to them, but it is difficult to know the balance on the promotion due to the lack of correcting reporting in the balances. A supervisor for Concora Credit let me know my balances last month but it took over an hour to get someone on the phone who understood the issue and was able to give me the correct balances. I am asking for help getting my balances corrected and correctly showing the deferred interest promotion on my account.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

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.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Getting a loan — Confusing or misleading advertising
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Thousands of students were scammed by Navient into taking out predatory private loans to attend for profit online schools such as the one I attended, The Art Institutes of XXXX XXXX, California. 
The XXXX XXXX and their Parent company, XXXX were investigated by the attorneys general of several states and have been found to have acted in a fraudulent manner. 
Because of the numerous claims of fraud and misconduct perpetrated by The XXXX XXXX, the XXXX XXXX has just announced a blanket discharge for anyone enrolled at The Art Institutes from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 
My Federal loans in the amount of {$28000.00} have been approved for discharged and my credit repaired. 
I am aware that Navient was sued by 39 state AGs regarding their predatory loans to attend these online for-profit schools and that Sallie Mae/Navient were a " preferred '' lending company in a " deal '' with these schools during the early XXXXXXXX XXXX 
These private loans with a high risk of default were part of a package deal offered to " for profit online schools '', but loans made to students in states outside of the agreement, or those who were not in default for 7 months or more during a " specific '' time frame, were excluded. 
I am sure this was a big win for Navient, but what a sham of a settlement deal for the rest of borrowers scammed into taking loans to at least XXXX for profit online schools. 
After the AG settlement, didn't Navient also get out of the Federal student loan business due to scrutiny from lawmakers and borrower advocates? 
Didn't Navient have to pay restitution to the Federal student loan borrowers for not informing students of IDR/IBR payments students could have enrolled in, but instead steered toward forbearance? 
Furthermore, hasn't Navient been sued at least a half dozen times for other predatory loan practices and illegal collection practices? 
I am also aware of a " pilot '' program by which Navient is sending out " applications '' to select students who may have filed Borrower Defense claims against their schools and were approved. This application is a sham. 
Why do we need to prove anything? 
Navient knows who we are. 
Under the FTC " Holder Rule '' Navient is liable for giving predatory loans in connection with online for-profit schools.

Time is running out for Navient to do right by students who were scammed into taking out private loans to attend online for profit colleges who have committed misconduct and misrepresented themselves to the public to entice students to enroll. 
Senator XXXX XXXX has sent a letter to Navient 's CEO asking to discharge these loans.

I was denied a checking account at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX because they said that Bank of America had said I had a charged off account in XX/XX/year>. This was a business account & at the height of the pandemic, I never thought that a business closing due to an act of XXXX would prevent me from getting a checking account at a credit union. I tried to resolve this back in XXXX and It's almost been 5 years and I don't even have that business EIN any longer nor was I applying for a business account. This is a very opaque system and I hope Bank of America can resolve this with me so I can open a checking account at a credit union.
