Complaint narrative:
I sent letters out to all 3 credit bureaus regarding items on my credit report that are not accurate which is a FCRA violation and you must abide by the law. All information I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I am the one sending the letters and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair or 3rd party. I know this is a violation of my rights due to the bureaus not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I just want these accounts to be removed from my credit report immediately or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I am trying to purchase a home soon and these negative items are holding my score back.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: IA

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I have public student loans and recently applied for public service loan forgiveness ( PSLF ) in XX/XX/2022 through the loan servicer MOHELA. 

I mailed my PSLF application form to MOHELA in XX/XX/2022 and learned from them 2 weeks later that they had lost it. I uploaded my PSLF form to their website through my account that day in early XX/XX/2022. On checking the website recently on XX/XX/2022, the document had disappeared from the 'received documents ' section. I re-uploaded the PSLF application on XX/XX/2022. It again disappeared when I checked the 'received documents ' page on XX/XX/2022. I re-uploaded the PSLF application on XX/XX/2022. The document disappeared from MOHELA 's website again on XX/XX/2022. I re-uploaded it then for the 3rd time. The document disappeared from MOHELA 's website again on XX/XX/2022. I re-uploaded it then for the 4th time. The document was gone yet again from MOHELA 's website when I just logged in on XX/XX/2022 evening. I re-uploaded the PSLF application for the 5th time just now. This is becoming madness as my uploaded PSLF application has now disappeared 5 times and my mailed form was lost by MOHELA. 

This can not continue. I need to be able to submit my PSLF application somehow to MOHELA and to have the form acknowledged and processed before the XX/XX/2022 deadline for this process. I have already sent MOHELA multiple messages and called multiple times with no reply or help provided. Whether this fraud is accidental or intentional, it is significant and provides me with no access to a repayment option for my student loans that should be legally available to me. I am considering legal action in this case.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, Florida My sister went to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, Florida, on XX/XX/2022. 

On XX/XX/2022, my sister went to XXXX XXXX XXXX to purchase a 2022 XXXX XXXX for my niece ( XXXX XXXX, where she met XXXX XXXX. Unfortunately, my niece required a cosigner in order to purchase a new car, so my sister called and asked if I could cosign. I asked my sister if she could confirm whether XXXX XXXX would conduct a hard or soft credit inquiry to determine vehicle rates. She asked XXXX, the salesman, and he assured her that it would be a soft inquiry to check rates, and that a hard inquiry would be performed once she purchased the vehicle. XXXX purposefully misled my sister about the credit check. XXXX also persuaded my sister that XXXX should lease rather than buy. XXXX informed my sister that they would begin with a lease and then switch to financing two years from the date of signing, with the lease payment being transferred into the auto financing, which was another con of XXXX XXXX XXXX. Following that, my sister entered my personal information on the XXXX XXXX XXXX website, where a hard credit inquiry was performed despite not making any purchases. 

I attempted to contact XXXX XXXX via phone and email after receiving a hard inquiry report that day, but no one responded. Instead, because I have excellent credit, I received numerous calls about purchasing a car. There had been no response from the executive office or manager for over a month. When I left a negative review on XXXX, they responded with a generic response and refused to take any action. 

Needless to say, after contacting the managers, store manager, and finance department to have the inquiry removed, no one returned my calls or kept transferring me. XXXX XXXX has yet to contact me or the credit bureau to resolve this issue as of today, XX/XX/2022. As a result, I would avoid doing business with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, when I finally spoke with someone in finance, they informed me that soft credit inquiries are never done ; it is always a hard inquiry. So, in order to make a sale, the salesman ( XXXX ) blatantly lied about the soft inquiry. 

In addition, he misled my sister about the lease program. He tried to persuade my sister that if she put down {$1000.00} today, she could lease the car for my niece instead. It could be converted to a finance agreement whenever she decides to purchase the vehicle. which was also false, because the lease would be for 36 months with XXXX XXXX with no changes to the terms.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
On or around XX/XX/2022 I reviewed my consumer report and noticed incorrect accounts, hard inquiries, and personal information that is being furnished without my consent. I have contacted XXXX, Experian, and XXXX several times about this matter and my concerns. XXXX, Experian, and XXXX have continued to violate my rights under the FCRA and have committed identity theft. The three credit agencies have caused me personal and actual damages because of the incorrect information they have been reporting. I never gave the credit agencies any verbal or written consent to report anything on my consumer report. I have attached the following letters to resolve this matter. Furthermore, I demand to opt out of any arbitration clause. 
1. Personal Information Update Letter. 
2. Permissible Purpose Letter.

3. Opt Out of Arbitration Letter. 
4. Debt Validation Letter.

5. Concerning Late Payments & Hard Inquiries Letter.

6. Proof of Information Furnishing Damages. 
7. Experian Communications. 
I have enclosed a copy of my ID and Utility Bill showing proof of address, so the credit agencies CAN NOT say or try to pause this investigation. To conclude the reporting agencies are reporting furnished " charge-offs '' which is a direct violation of Tax law pursuant Title 26 USC. A charge off is considered " income '' which would be considered incorrect furnished information. 1099A has been reported to the IRS for the following companies I " am disputing for audit. IRS Publication 4681 - canceled debts, foreclosures, repossessions, and abandonments.
