Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Need information about your loan balance or loan terms
Company: MOHELA
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have recently ( XX/XX/scrub>, 2025 ) paid off both of my loans as serviced by MOHELA, in full. I have screenshotted the proof to view my online receipt, and it is readily checkable on my end that I owe no more money. I endeavor to procure a paid-in-full letter from the company- so I called to ensure that this would happen quickly as well as proper credit reporting. Despite this, after being on hold for roughly XXXX hours ( after a call back request was nothing more than a deadline ), I was told by a customer service associate that she could not see my last payment on her end ( despite the payment showing that it is processed on my end for XXXX days at this point ), and that even if I had paid off my loans, that I would have to wait until I was out of 'XXXX  " status - then wait an additional 45 to 120 days to receive said letter. Mind you, I was also already in loan repayment despite being in XXXX ' status - as my grace period for returing back to school had elapsed. Despite being in repayment, and paying off my loans while still in school, I could not get the customer service associate to acknowledge that I was entitled to a paid-in-full letter - and was put on hold 4 to 5 times for several minutes at a time before being transferred to a supervisor that was not available - told to press one for cal back, and then ( without acknowledgement of my call back selection ) the system hung up on me. I believe that MOHELA is trying to keep my account open despite it being obvious that I owe them no more money.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address the ongoing noncompliance of your agency in relation to my identity theft report, which I previously submitted in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite having sent several letters, your agency has repeatedly rejected my identity theft report on the grounds that it was not filed by a law enforcement agency. This decision is not in compliance with the FCRA and fails to recognize the guidance provided by identitytheft.gov as mandated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). 

As you are aware, the FCRA at Section 605B and the guidance provided by the CFPB under identitytheft.gov clearly outline the process for filing an identity theft report. The CFPB specifically states that victims of identity theft can file a report directly through identitytheft.gov, which then becomes a valid identity theft report under the FCRA. Nowhere does the FCRA require this report to be submitted by law enforcement for it to be valid.

Furthermore, under FCRA Section 617, your agency is legally required to investigate and resolve any identity theft dispute in a timely manner, and you are prohibited from deciding unilaterally what is valid or invalid when it comes to an identity theft report that has been properly filed. Your refusal to acknowledge this report based on your own standardsrather than what is set forth in federal lawis a clear violation of the FCRA.

Legal Precedent : 1.Parker v. Time Warner Entertainment Co. L.P. , 331 F.3d 13 ( 2d Cir. XXXX ) : This case underscores the importance of proper handling of disputes related to credit reporting and emphasizes that credit reporting agencies can not disregard information simply based on their own internal policies when federal law mandates a specific process. 
2.Sarver v. Experian Information Solutions , Inc. , 390 F.3d 969 ( 7th Cir. XXXX ) : This case reinforced that credit reporting agencies must follow FCRA regulations, including investigating claims of identity theft in accordance with the law, and can not arbitrarily determine what constitutes an acceptable identity theft report. 
3.Henson v. Santander Consumer USA , Inc. , XXXX U.S. Dist . LEXIS 191143 ( E.D. Va. XXXX ) : This decision clarified that a credit reporting agency is obligated to accept documents submitted by the consumer, as long as they meet the legal requirements for disputing inaccurate information under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. 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 to be 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.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports
