State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In accordance with the Metro2 Compliance of the FDRA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Florida ( XXXX ) Account related to XXXX and XXXX has violated my rights. 

Under the code 15 USC 1681 section 602 it says I have the right to have privacy and section 604A Section 2 says that the consumer reporting agencies can not give out any of my income without my knowledge or written consent to do so.

Credit reporting agencies can not place a late payment on an open end consumer credit plan so says the 15 USC 1666B law.

Also with 15 USC 1681a law Exclusion says that consumer report term does not include any of the reports containing transactions and or experiences between a consumer and the person making the report.

IRS states that any creditor that writes off an account as a Charge Off files a 1099C to establish the account as income. And income does not get reported on the credit profile. So the consumer reporting agencies are violated my rights reporting inaccurate information.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Problem with customer service
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I contacted my loan servicer on XX/XX/2022 about getting a refund for the amounts I paid since the Covid-19 emergency was declared. This refund is applicable in accordance with the Presidential executive order that allows student loan refunds for all amounts paid during the Covid-19 payment pause. 

The amount to be refunded to me is {$7300.00}. I was initially told on XX/XX/XXXX, that this process would take 4-6 weeks to receive a refund in my bank account. 

I contacted Aidvantage again on XX/XX/XXXX and was told the timeline has changed from 4-6 weeks, to 6-8 weeks to process the refund. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Aidvantage again, and they told me the timeframe would now take 8-12 weeks. 

Each time I called, Aidvantage placed blame on the Department of Education, claiming that only they can " approve '' a loan refund. I finally decided to call the Department of Education and they informed me that there is no approval process that involves the Department of Education. According to them, my loan servicer ( Aidvantage ) should have given me a refund within 45 days of it being requested. 

Aidvantage seems to be dishonest with their excuse as to why the refund has not happened yet, and their refund timeline has been arbitrarly moved each time I contacted them. There is no trackable progress being made, or anyone there that can help get this done. Aidvantage has records of all payments made by me during the student loan payment pause and it should be straight-forward to refund this amount.
