Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Inaccurate and Duplicative Reporting of Transferred Student Loans To : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Dear CFPB Representative, I am filing this formal complaint against both XXXX  and Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority ( MOHELA ) for the continued reporting of student loan accounts that have been transferred to another servicer, and for which MOHELA no longer retains legal servicing rights.

Despite this, XXXX  continues to report the accounts as open under MOHELA. This is inaccurate, misleading, and constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Specifically : The accounts are no longer active with MOHELA, yet they continue to reflect balances, deferred payments, and activity under their name.

The current servicer has taken over all legal servicing responsibilities, yet no correction has been made to my credit file.

I have previously disputed this with XXXX  and MOHELA, but they have failed to correct the reporting or provide any verification of MOHELAs continued ownership. 

Violations include : FCRA 1681e ( b ) Failure to ensure maximum possible accuracy.

FCRA 1681i ( a ) Failure to properly reinvestigate.

FDCPA 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) False representation of the legal status of the debt.

I am requesting that the CFPB : Order XXXX  to remove the duplicate/obsolete MOHELA tradelines.

Investigate MOHELA for furnishing misleading credit information.

Ensure only the current servicer reports the account and that only accurate, verified data is maintained on my consumer credit reports.

Attached are copies of : My credit report showing the MOHELA accounts ; My written dispute letters to XXXX  ; Any communication from my current loan servicer ( if available ). 

I appreciate your urgent attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.

Complaint narrative:
Equifaxs repeated failure to address my disputes with care and thoroughness is now more than just negligenceit has become a pattern, XXXX that echoes the same serious concerns the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has already investigated. I will not allow my credit file to remain stained by errors that Equifax has failed to verify or remove, especially when that failure comes at a direct cost to my well-being and future. You have an obligation to treat consumer disputes seriously, and yet it feels as though my concerns have been dismissed entirely. 

According to XXXX XXXX. XXXX, Equifax is legally required to reinvestigate all disputed items within XXXX days, and to delete any information that can not be fully and independently verified. That means verifiable proofnot assumptions, not recycled data from unreliable sources. Furthermore, under XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ), any information found to be incomplete, inaccurate, or unverifiable must be corrected or removed entirely. I am demanding immediate corrective action, not another automated response. If you fail to do your job now, I will escalate this matter through every available channel. You are not just mishandling datayou are mishandling lives.

Complaint narrative:
I'm contacting you because I recently discovered a credit inquiry on my report that I had no knowledge of, did not authorize, and did not initiate. This inquiry is fraudulent, plain and simple, and it should have never been made under my name. 

I have never applied for credit or given any form of consent to the company that pulled this inquiry. I only found out about it while reviewing my credit report, and Im furious that someone was able to access my personal credit file without my permission. This is not just a mistake it is unauthorized access to my private financial information, and it is a clear violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).
