Consumer complaint received 2023-11-29 00:00:00
Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I received an email from Nelnet letting me know that student loan payments would resume in XXXX. My next payment would be due in XXXX. I made said payment an entire month early, on XX/XX/. Since I made the XXXX payment, I shouldnt have needed to make another payment till XXXX. At the end of XXXX my account said that I owed over {$900.00} and it shows interest. I made the payment already, so theres no way I shouldve owed {$900.00} and theres no way my account shouldve gained any interest. I made the payment and even emailed them to let them know that there was no way I owed {$900.00}. Paying the {$900.00} shouldve covered my loan payments for XXXX & XXXX, but now theyre telling me I owe a payment for XXXX. Its as if they took my early payment in XXXX and decided not to apply it to my student loan, while charging interest and falsely claiming I was late on a payment. I emailed them at the end of XXXX and have not received a response yet. It is also near impossible to get in contact over the phone. This allows Nelnet to pretty much do whatever they please while claiming theyre having difficulties leaving borrowers with no way to even contact them.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, there are laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protect me. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads 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 accounts listed without my expressed written consent. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.
