Complaint narrative:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role in gathering and assessing consumer credit information. However, they must exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy. The banking system relies on accurate and fair credit reporting, and when these reporting methods are unfair, it undermines public trust, which is vital for the system 's stability. I never gave my explicit, written consent for these agencies to report my information, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ). This violation has led to an alleged case of identity theft, breaching 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. The accounts in question are not related to any transactions made by me. 

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act was created to ensure that laws and procedures are in place to protect consumers from abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices by debt collectors. In this case, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692f, which prohibits debt collectors from using unfair or unconscionable means to collect a debt. Specifically, they can not collect any amounts that arent explicitly authorized by the agreement or allowed by law. Additionally, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e, which prohibits the use of false, deceptive, or misleading representations in debt collection efforts. This includes using deceptive methods to collect a debt or gather consumer information. Moreover, they are forbidden from contacting consumers at inconvenient times or places, or engaging in behavior that harasses or abuses consumers. 

In this case, the company has harassed me by claiming I owe a debt that I do not recognize as my responsibility. They have also contacted me at inconvenient times and places, in violation of the law.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information currently being reported on my credit report related to my federal student loan serviced by Aidvantage. 

According to the official repayment statement issued by Aidvantage dated XX/XX/XXXX, there are no overdue amounts listed for this loan. The statement outlines a clearly defined repayment schedule under the SAVE plan, with the first payment due on XX/XX/XXXX. However, my credit report inaccurately reflects past due payments for the months of XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX, which is both incorrect and damaging to my credit standing. 

These past due amounts should not exist, as there were no required payments due during that time frame. The repayment schedule provided by Aidvantage explicitly states that payments commence in XX/XX/XXXX, and no delinquencies should have been reported prior to that date. 

I respectfully request the immediate correction of this error and the removal of any negative reporting related to late payments for the months of XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX from my credit report. Please investigate this matter and update the records with all credit bureaus to reflect the accurate payment history as shown in the official loan documentation. 

I have submitted disputes to all three major Credit companies, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have sent written correspondence directly to AidVantage 's Credit Bureau Management Team as well with no response to-date.

Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am asserting my rights under the following provisions : 15 U.S. Code 1692a Definitions 15 U.S. Code 1692k Civil Liability 15 U.S. Code 1640 Civil Liability ( Truth in Lending Act ) 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) Right to fair and accurate reporting 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) Protection from misuse of credit reports 15 U.S. Code 1692a ( 5 ) Definitions including debt 15 U.S. Code 228 ( This appears to be a misreference ; possibly intended to reinforce above rights ) Under the law, you are required to report only accurate, timely, and verifiable information to the credit bureaus. If you can not provide a signed contract and verifiable validation of this alleged debt, then you are in violation of federal law by reporting it. Moreover, the reporting of inaccurate or unverifiable information damages my reputation and financial standing, and it is causing measurable harm. 

Accordingly, I demand that you : 1. Immediately delete the above-referenced account from any and all credit reporting agencies ( Equifax, Experian, TransUnion ) .

2. Provide written confirmation that this item has been permanently deleted.

If this demand is not fully satisfied within 15 calendar days, I will initiate a legally binding arbitration proceeding under the applicable consumer protection laws and seek statutory damages, actual damages, legal fees, and injunctive relief. 

Additionally, a copy of this letter is being sent to all three major credit bureaus with a formal dispute. 

Credit Bureau Addresses : Experian XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Equifax XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX TransUnion XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX You are now on formal notice. Govern yourself accordingly.

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a mattress and box spring from Mattress Firm in XXXX for {$590.00}. I returned both items within a week or so, unopened and within the return window. I was verbally informed of a {$47.00} return fee and {$99.00} haul-away fee, but I never signed or agreed to those charges. Since a payment was made at that point, it would cover the fee after the return was processed. I did not pay anything further, and was told everything was to reversing the credit account to {$0.00} In XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered a {$590.00} collection account related to this purchase reported to XXXX. This amount is inaccurate, inflated beyond the original item costs and alleged fees, and was never validated. I am requesting immediate removal of this tradeline from my credit report and full investigation into this claim.

Complaint narrative:
I submitted formal Metro 2 and FCRA-based disputes to Experian on XX/XX/year>. Experian misrepresented the dispute filing date as XX/XX/year>, and has now verified several accountsincluding XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXXwithout providing documentation or lawful validation. 

I attached a formal Investigation Verification Request under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ), which Experian has not responded to. The accounts remain on my credit report despite being included in my bankruptcy or involving unauthorized third-party data sources. I also provided FTC reports, bankruptcy discharge orders ( Case # XXXX ), and proof these companies are not licensed to collect in Georgia. 

This pattern of behavior shows willful noncompliance with FCRA 611, 607 ( b ), 605, 604, and Metro 2 standards. Experian has knowingly suppressed dispute timestamps and refused to correct unverifiable and damaging data.
