Complaint narrative:
This complaint is regarding UHEAA ( Utah High Education Assistance Authority )  Uheaa Address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, UT XXXX XXXX UHEAA, serviced my student loan from XX/XX/XXXX until I paid the loan off early in XX/XX/XXXX. I never paid them late. 

In early XX/XX/XXXX after more than 30 days since I had paid off my student loan in full, UHEAA was still reporting to XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX  that is was an open trade line on my credit report, with a balance. I contacted UHEAA on XX/XX/XXXX and was told to call back in another 90 to 180 days if it still shows an open account. 

I then chose on XX/XX/XXXX to dispute the account with XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX  even providing them the copy of the letter from UHEAA ( XX/XX/XXXX )  stating my loan was paid and closed. 

On XXXX XXXX XXXX I was notified thru my credit monitoring service that the UHEAA account status changed on both my XXXX  and XXXX  credit reports. 

It now showed the account was marked as " closed '' but still had a balance of {$2000.00}, that it was 300 month revolving loan, that it was opened in XX/XX/XXXX, and most upsetting it shows there was a late payment of 60 days past due in XX/XX/XXXX and 90 days past due in XX/XX/XXXX. 

FIRST AND FOREMOST I NEVER, NOT ONCE EVER PAID THIS LOAN LATE. I HAD AN XXXX CREDIT SCORE AND WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BUYING A HOUSE. 

FURTHERMORE EVERY ACCOUNT DETAIL LISTED ON THE UHEAA TRADE LINE ON MY CREDIT REPORTS ARE INCORRECT AS FOLLOWS ; 1. ACCOUNT SHOWS BALANCE, WHEN IN FACT MY ACCOUNT IS CLOSED AND WAS PAID OFF.

2. ACCOUNT SHOWS AS 300 MONTH LOAN, HOWEVER THIS WAS A 120 MONTH LOAN 3. ACCOUNT SHOWS I WAS LATE 60 DAYS XX/XX/XXXX AND 90 DAYS XX/XX/XXXX. I WAS LATE NEITHER OF THOSE MONTHS. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH UHEAA DID NOT EVEN SERVICE THIS LOAN UNTIL XX/XX/XXXX WHEN THEN BOUGHT OUT XXXX XXXX LOANS. ( I HAVE ALSO CONFIRMED WITH ACS THAT ANY PAYMENT TO THEM WE MADE ON TIME ) ** IN REGARDS TO THE UHEAA TRADE LINE ON MY CREDIT REPORT, PRIOR TO MY PAYING OFF THE LOAN IT NEVER HAD INCORRECT INFO LISTED. THE BALANCE, TERMS, AMOUNT AND EVERYTHING WAS CORRECT. 

XXXX THE INITAL DISPUTE WAS BECAUSE UHEAA FAILED TO UPDATE THE ACCOUNT AND MARK AS PAID AND CLOSED UPON ME PAYING IT OFF **** RATHER THAN CORRECTING IT, THE CHOSE TO FALSELY ADD 2 LATE  PAYMENT THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. 

I have contacted Uhea several times via telephone. each representative has told me they system shows it paid closed, at a XXXX  balance and no late payment were ever made. 

XXXX  has initiated another dispute, but has indicated they can not correct the issues since the issues is coming from what Uheaa is reporting. 

XXXX  shows the same information as XXXX  does, however XXXX  does not. XXXX  is showing correctly with not late payment for UHEAA.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
