Complaint narrative:
XXXX is continuing to show that they hold all of my accounts with over {$60000.00} worth of loans, however, they were paid off by consolidation with XXXX in XXXX. I noticed that the loans reported by XXXX were duplicates and submitted a dispute through XXXX XX/XX/XXXX to have the accounts showing closed, however, XXXX reported there being no errors and the accounts continue to show open on my credit reports. 

My loans have since been forgiven through PSLF and XXXX has removed them from my credit report, but XXXX accounts still show. I submitted a XXXX dispute through XXXX to XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX has yet again refused to update the status of my accounts. 

I called XXXX today, XX/XX/XXXX, and was told that the accounts will just " take some time '' to remove from my credit. There was no specific date or timeframe provided and no explanation. It makes no sense that XXXX would take XXXX years to remove information from my account, yet XXXX was able to get everything removed within a few weeks of PSLF being forgiven.
