Company: MOHELA
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Mohela regarding my student loan forgiveness for public service. I was told by a customer service representative that my paperwork was received but she has no other information on status. Its been over two months and my paperwork has not been available on their website. This situation sucks because we are now in repayment phase and Mohela has been dragging it feet in processing borrowers paperwork. I don't understand why the Education Dept. doesn't allow the loan servicer borrowers are assign to handle loan forgiveness.

I have repeatedly notified TRANSUNION that they have violated my Consumer rights multiple times under 15 USC 1681 ( B ) ( C ), 15 U.S.C. 1666b ( a ), 12 CFR 1016.4a and 15 USC 1602 ( b ) just to name a few, and have requested for them to remove the disputed items which are in direct violation of my rights as a consumer, and they have refused to respond or acknowledge my request. I have sent all notices via certified mail, both to the CEO and the dispute department, requesting them to resolve this unlawful violation within 15 days, and no response has been given. These credit bureaus seem to think they can just violate our rights at will, and then ignore us when we attempt to lawfully hold them accountable for it. Congress put the United States Code and Uniform Commercial Code in place for this very reason, to protect consumers from corrupt corporations such as TRANSUNION trampling all over our rights in order to create a monopoly over credit scores. This is both unlawful, unconstitutional, and most importantly, unrighteous.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I received an email confirming I had been approved for a Chase Sapphire credit card. I was also informed I was a Chase Private client account and had a checking account opened in my name. I called chase and after talking to several people the account was closed. They had all of my correct information and eventually sent me the card, after I had cancelled type account. I received letters stating the accounts were closed but they did not have incident numbers on them. 

On XX/XX/2023 I received an email at XXXX XXXX thanking me for my application for a Chase Freedom XXXX Credit card. I called at XXXX to report the fraudulent activity since I did not apply for any credit card. Again, all the info they had was correct. The credit application had not yet made it to the review for approval. 

I believe that someone at Chase is opening these accounts fraudulently. Two times seems odd and the info was correct for me to receive the card at my home address.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I called to ask for the best interest rate on both cards and was told they could not offer me a better rate. Was going by market value. Which I find very unacceptable. With the interest rate I am being charged I will never pay off these cards. This bank takes half of the payment in interest. I just want to verify that this bank is not using fraudulent practices with interest rates. That they are being honest in charging me this interest rate on both cards.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) concerning inaccuracies on my credit reports, which I have previously disputed with XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve these issues, I have encountered little to no results and continued financial hardship due to identity theft and credit reporting inaccuracies. I am seeking an urgent resolution and compensation for the damages incurred as a result of these inaccuracies and identity theft. 

I have diligently followed the official dispute process with the credit reporting agencies, providing detailed documentation, and highlighting the items that are not accurate, fraudulent, or related to identity theft. Despite my efforts, my credit reports remain plagued with incorrect information, making it challenging to secure loans, housing, and employment. 

The inaccuracies and the identity theft-related entries have not only tarnished my creditworthiness but have also caused severe financial stress and emotional distress. I have attached copies of the relevant credit reports, highlighting the discrepancies and fraudulent entries, along with the previous dispute correspondence for your reference. 

I respectfully request the following actions be taken to rectify this situation : A thorough investigation into the inaccuracies on my credit reports and the identity theft issues that have not been appropriately addressed. 
Urgent correction and removal of all inaccurate, fraudulent, or identity theft-related items from my credit reports. 
Notification to XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX to promptly update my credit reports with the corrected and accurate information. 
Compensation for the damages I have suffered due to these inaccuracies and identity theft, including financial losses, emotional distress, and any associated legal fees. 
I am fully aware of the importance of accurate and fair credit reporting, and I believe that the CFPB 's intervention is crucial to ensuring that my credit reports reflect a true and accurate representation of my credit history. 

I kindly request that this matter be addressed with utmost urgency, considering the significant impact it has on my financial well-being. I would appreciate your prompt attention and resolution. Please keep me informed of the progress and outcome of this investigation. 

I am willing to cooperate fully, providing any additional information or documentation necessary to facilitate this dispute and expedite the resolution process. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this critical issue, and I trust in the CFPB 's commitment to protecting consumers ' rights and ensuring fair and accurate credit reporting.
