Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of a XXXX late payment on my student loans, which are serviced by Nelnet. My loans were placed on hold during the XXXX pandemic, and under extended deferment policies issued by the federal government, I was under the impression that my payments remained paused due to financial hardship. Despite this, Nelnet has reported to the credit bureaus that my loans are 90 days late. However, a review of my Payment History Line does not reflect any late paymentsonly the Payment Status Line contains this information. This discrepancy suggests that Nelnet may be violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to ensure accurate reporting. Additionally, I was never notified via phone, email, or mail that my deferment had ended and that loan payments would resume. Due to the lack of communication, I was unaware that a payment was required.
