Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, SC XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, I am submitting this complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding Experian , specifically in relation to the recent data breach that has compromised the personal information of countless consumers, including myself.

Company: MOHELA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I filed my application for the School Misconduct Discharge with XXXX, my loan servicer. My application was subsequently denied with only a vague explanation that it did not meet the requirements for discharge. This did not make sense so I emailed an inquiry as to the specific reasons my application was denied, but by this time, XXXX had moved my loan to a different servicer and I was told to direct my inquiry to Mohela, my new loan servicer. Mohela responded with yet another vague explanation for the denial, stating that they consider a variety of factors in determining whether a loan should be discharged, but they are confidential and proprietary, and only that my case did not meet the standards.
