Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I discovered I was part of a data breach and decided to freeze all 3 credit reporting accounts. I googled Experian credit freeze and ended up on the Experian site, where they list a number to call to freeze your credit. I called the number XXXX XXXX XXXX  and a woman answered and she asked all the relevant info i.e. social security number DOB, etc. and suddenly I realized she was not from experian but from another company called Consumer Information Bureau and was trying to sell me credit protection and I had just given her all my relevant information! I called experian to let them know that they are misleading customers and sending them to a third party who we are unknowingly giving all our important info to. This can't be legal? OR? This is also a company that is not only poorly reviewed but there are online comments that this is a scam! On the Experian site! 
I called Experian and was put on hold 3 times for 15 minutes each, as if they were trying to help me, at which point a new person would answer and had no idea what I was talking about and I had to start all over again. I never got through to anyone to get this resolved.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 
Account Information : Creditor 's Name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Reason for Dispute : I made the payment on time, but it was incorrectly reported as late due to a processing delay by the credit union. I have attached my bank statement showing the transaction date, which clearly indicates the payment was made before the due date. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Can't temporarily delay making payments
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I graduated a full-time graduate program and my student loan servicer at the time, Navient, did not honor the 6 month forbearance/grace period I was entitled to receive on my Direct and PLUS loans. As a result, I was forced to make payments in excess of {$500.00} that I could not afford at the time, or else risk being in past due status with the possibility of reporting this to credit bureaus. At the time, I was working in public service and despite providing information regarding my employment with a state agency, Navient did not apply the payments they coerced me to make towards the number of payments made under PSLF. I still have email confirmation of at least some the payments made to Navient during that time. My loans were ultimately transferred in early XXXX, and I no longer had access to my payment history and communications.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

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 on my XXXXXXXX XXXX account [ XXXX ]. 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 writing to formally dispute the presence of unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and inquiries on my credit report, which I received on [ Date of Credit Report ]. After a careful review, I have identified multiple accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate, authorize, or recognize.

This matter is causing significant concern, as my credit history is being unjustly damaged by information that is neither accurate nor reflective of my true financial activities.

Complaint narrative:
This is a dispute with USAA Federal Savings Bank regarding the preparation of our Closing Disclosure with recent communication from them I spoke recently to XXXX XXXX, lender at the bank on XX/XX/XXXX. Per my conversation with him, he agreed with me there was a mistake because NO Prepaids were collected upfront on this NEW loan ( reference Section F of attached closing disclosure document ) He also stated he did not know where the money in XXXX XXXX wentXXXX consulted his manager, XXXX XXXX, and she got on the call and said she would send a written breakdown to explain the handling of the closing disclosure. When I requested XXXX to correct the error, she told me that she can not correct it since the loan had been sold to XXXX XXXX. XXXX said she would call me back the next day but no return call. Instead on Friday XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, from USAA XXXX called ( refused to give me her last name ) and I expressed my concerns to her and she said she would talk to me again that afternoon. XXXX will not return my multiple calls when I've tried to call her back XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX acquired the loan and since No Prepaids were collected upfront in Section F ( NOT SECTION G as USAA Bank has erroneously entered these for the OLD loan ) ) XXXX XXXX passed on a shortage of {$3800.00} to us to be paid over a 12 month period. 
( see letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX from USAA sends an email to me on XX/XX/XXXX after admitting there was a mistake on their side the day before. On XX/XX/XXXX, I responded to her email that she previously said there was a mistake but she can not correct it since the loan has been sold to XXXX XXXX. We want the {$3800.00} shortage refunded to us since they made this mistake. 
Keep in mind, the above is unrelated to the fact that we increased our home owner 's insurance in XXXX of XXXX, 4 months After when this loan closed with USAA. 
attached are phone numbers for all of the player names mentioned above. 
Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
