Hello - I've been disputing the following below items with the bureaus and they all remain on there in violation of the Comprehensive Credit Act of 2020, Section 401. I've sent them multiple letters.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
To whom or what this may concern, but the information on my credit report is completely inaccurate. Equifax shows on page 4 & 5 that I don't have a credit card balance for XXXX on XXXX or XXXX. On page 6, it shows that my date of last payment was XX/XX/XXXX but the delinquency shows it started on XX/XX/XXXX ; which is contradictory, the payment history says I paid on time in XXXX. The report shows that my charge off is not present after XXXX, XXXX. XXXX  and XXXX  have different information as well. XXXX  shows my last payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX on page 1, but as you look on page 2 it shows a payment was made. XXXX  will not even let upload my documents for some reason. I send emails and I don't get a response. 

PS my original student loan account shows that it was paid and closed on all 3 bureaus, so the XXXX account should not even exist.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Problem with customer service
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted paperwork verifying my employment at a nonprofit organization to FedLoan after being moved to them upon request for PSLF. My initial verification for my previous non-profit job only shows 4 months of confirmed employment, but I was employed with this organization for 10 months and then moved to another nonprofit. My applications show this to be the case, but every time I contact their customer service ( through email, online chat, and calling ) I get a different answer on how to solve the problem, from submitting a new application to the wrong person signed it to the phone number missing from the application ( it wasn't ). I resubmitted the application, and now I am told it can not be digitally signed even though there is no digital signature for the application. I am at my wits end and have received no help that will actually solve the issue of the missing months of service with this organization. No wonder so many people don't get the right information about PSLF since its probably the most complicated system to verify regularly. I have to submit my tax information to be approved for IBR and PSLF, and it's the same EIN for the same employers on both my taxes and loans, so why does this have to be so complicated?
