I want to dispute the bankruptcy entry appearing on my credit report because I believe it contains inaccurate or unverifiable information. After a careful review of my credit report, I have identified discrepancies in the details associated with this entry. Specifically, I question the accuracy of the reported information, including but not limited to the case number, filing date, court jurisdiction, and its association with my accounts. Additionally, I have not received any concrete evidence or documentation to validate this bankruptcy records legitimacy or its proper reporting.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), all information reported on a credit file must be accurate, complete, and verifiable.

Company: Marlette Funding, LLC
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint to BEST EGG regarding unauthorized inquiries reflected in my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit file, I noticed that several companies have accessed my credit report without my permission. These inquiries were made without my knowledge or consent, and I did not authorize any of these companies to review my credit history. As a result, I believe that my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) have been violated, specifically the provision that requires a company to have a permissible purpose before accessing my credit information. I respectfully request an immediate investigation into these unauthorized inquiries and that the BEST EGG will remove them from my report. I am also requesting that the companies responsible for these unauthorized inquiries provide documentation showing that they had the required consent or permissible purpose to access my credit file. I trust that your agency will take the necessary steps to address this violation and ensure my credit report is corrected in accordance with the FCRA.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

Complaint narrative:
I logged into my account XXXX day and realized that XXXX of my credit card accounts with Chase had been closed. I called to inquire, and I was told it was closed due to inactivity. I asked why I had never been notified. I was told I was notified by mail. I let them know that I was set up for paperless statements and notices, and that I had not received any noticed in my online account inbox or my email. The individual on the phone did not offer to send me a copy of the notice. They simply stated there was nothing that I could do, but that I could reapply for the card. The closing of XXXX of my longest standing credit accounts obviously has an impact to my credit history. Additionally, it has an impact to my available credit.

Complaint narrative:
I have made efforts to address this issue by reporting the inaccurate information, which has severely impacted my personal life and caused significant emotional distress. The presence of these fraudulent and incorrect items on my consumer reports has prevented me from purchasing my dream car and providing for my family.

If this matter is not resolved promptly and appropriately, I will have no choice but to take legal action.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: MOHELA
State: ND

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Mohela, my federal loan servicer, regarding their mishandling of my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, their failure to properly process my request to switch from XXXX to XXXX, and the inadequate customer service I have received. 
I am currently pursuing XXXX and have just XXXX months left to qualify for forgiveness ( XXXX ). However, Mohela has not processed my application request to switch to XXXX, and they have mismanaged my forbearance status. 
According to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, borrowers who were enrolled in XXXX were placed into a general forbearance which would not count toward XXXX or XXXX  forgiveness. However, time spent in a processing forbearance ( a category Mohela should have already applied in my case ) does count toward XXXX, provided the borrower is in an eligible employment status ( I am employed by the XXXX ). I applied for XXXX XX/XX/year> which according to XXXX should move me into a processing forbearance based on their following website guidance XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I spoke with a rep who indicated my XXXX forbearance doesn't count for XXXX, which is correct. I attempted to explain that based on the guidelines references above, I should have been moved into a processing forbearance. He transferred me to a supervisory line, and someone was supposed to reach out within a business day. However, I have not heard back. 
Mohela 's phone tree system seems specifically designed to block XXXX candidates from reaching a live rep. I was placed in an endless loop and had to lie on the phone tree to speak to customer service. 
I am frustrated that Mohela is allowed to disregard rules that govern student loan services and fails to take actions on time sensitive request with no repercussions. 
I request immediate clarification and correction of my forbearance status ( from XXXX to processing forbearance ) in line with the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX rules, retroactive to XX/XX/year>. Mohela also needs to initiate a formal investigation into their customer service practices, especially for XXXX borrowers. The prolonged stonewalling, inaction, and negligence on Mohela 's part is bordering on criminal, and it is directly impacting the lives of millions of borrowers.
