Complaint narrative:
This morning I noticed that inaccurate accounts are appearing on my credit report, and I dont understand why. I regularly check my credit report, but this time I found unexpected discrepancies. I even refreshed my browser thinking it might just be a glitch, but the issue remained. The inaccurate accounts did not disappear. For this reason, I am requesting that the documents Ive submitted be carefully reviewed so I can finally stop worrying about this problem.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my consumer credit report by Equifax, XXXX XXXX XXXX  for XXXX XXXX ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  [ Specifically, Equifax is reporting the account as " Pays account as agreed '' with a " 30 days past due '' delinquency. XXXX is reporting " Paid account/was 30 days past due '' with a " 30-day delinquent '' status. XXXX is reporting " Paid or paying as agreed '' but does not indicate a payment status. ] These reports are inaccurate and need to be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' and " Paid as agreed '' for all accounts. These entries are inconsistent, contradictory, and inaccurate. I am requesting that the status of this account be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' or " Current, '' and the worst delinquency status be updated accordingly to ensure accuracy in reporting. Upon review, I have discovered that these entries violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( CRA ), particularly Section 611, which requires consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information contained in consumer reports. Furthermore, the entries were reported without my written authorization, in direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ), which mandates that consumer information can not be accessed or used without the explicit written consent of the consumer. I expect a detailed response outlining the findings of your investigation, including documentation of the original written instructions from me, with my wet signature, authorizing the reporting of this information, and an explanation of the legitimate purpose for reporting these late payments. Additionally, I request a thorough investigation into these disputed late payments as per Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRA and written confirmation of the investigation 's completion, along with details of any actions taken to rectify this matter. 
Lastly, I request documentation to verify compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which mandates that periodic statements must be delivered at least 21 days before the payment due date, including the periodic statement and corresponding tracking number to confirm timely delivery. I have attached proof of the inaccuracies and highlighted them in red for your convenience. I trust that you will handle this matter promptly and in compliance with all applicable federal regulations. I look forward to receiving a response within 30 days of the date of this letter. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Company: MOHELA
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Draft CFPB Complaint # XXXX What happened : I have repeatedly attempted to resolve issues with my federal student loan account through MOHELA, but I have not received a single direct response to my XXXX prior complaints. My most recent concern involves contradictory and incomplete information regarding my PSLF and IDR status. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, my PSLF history was updated to show XXXX qualifying payments through XX/XX/XXXX. However, payments since XX/XX/XXXX are excluded because my loans were placed into a non-qualifying forbearance by MOHELA. This forbearance is not XXXX of the recognized eligible types ( e.g., National Service or DOD forbearances ) and I did not request it. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received correspondence forwarded from XXXX XXXX XXXX office. The U.S. Department of Educations Office XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX incorrectly referenced another borrowers name ( XXXX XXXX in my case and advised I must reapply for a different XXXX plan to resume payments. This is factually inconsistent with my account history and my XX/XX/XXXX notice from MOHELA, which extended my IDR recertification date to XX/XX/XXXX due to court-ordered changes. 

Despite submitting multiple complaints, MOHELA has failed to acknowledge or respond in writing. I continue to face uncertainty about my PSLF eligibility, XXXX status, and the validity of the administrative forbearance applied to my account.

I made a reservation at XXXX for a total of {$370.00} that was supposed to be charged on XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX days prior to travel ). However, XXXX charged me on XX/XX/XXXX and I didn't have enough funds for that transaction. I requested a credit and XXXX issued a credit. on XX/XX/XXXX US Bank showed BOTH transactions, pending, so canceling each other out, which is fine. In addition, I have an email from XXXX that my credit would show up on my card on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Today XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my balance, and the pending credit no longer shows up on the pending transactions, only the charge. This made my account overdrawn. The bank is refusing to issue a provisional credit to my account to restore a positive balance. They claim it is XXXX problem, and XXXX claims it's the Bank 's problem. 

In the meantime, my account is still overdrawn.
