Complaint narrative:
Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX Subject : Notice of Dispute and Request for Updated Status Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally update the late payment entries on my credit report for the account referenced below. According to the ( FCRA ), I believe that these late payments have been reported in violation of my rights under the following provisions. In ordnance with 15 U.S.C. 1681a information reported on a credit report must be accurate, complete, and fair. I believe that the late payment entries reported on my credit file are inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading and should be corrected. Also Violation of FCRA 1666b ( Timely Notice of Billing Error ) : This section requires creditors to provide timely and proper notice to consumers regarding any billing errors, including late payment charges. If a billing error is disputed, the creditor is obligated to address it within a reasonable timeframe. I believe the creditor failed to provide the required notice of billing errors and did not give me an adequate opportunity to dispute or correct any alleged late payment charges. As a result, these late payments were reported incorrectly. Violation of FCRA 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( Permissible Purpose ) : Under this section, information may only be disclosed to third parties ( e.g., credit reporting agencies or other creditors ) if the reporting entity has a permissible purpose under the law. This includes cases where information is reported to ensure the accuracy of credit reporting, or where the consumer has explicitly agreed to the reporting.I believe the creditor did not have a permissible purpose to report late payments under these circumstances, particularly if the late payments were inaccurately reported or if no valid underlying issue existed.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding multiple overdraft fees applied to my account. These fees were assessed despite having sufficient funds available at the time the transactions were authorized. 
However, due to delayed posting of charges and credits, I was unfairly charged overdraft fees. 
This issue appears consistent with recent findings by the CFPB, which identified similar practices by Navy Federal Credit Union, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially having adequate funds. I believe these practices are deceptive and unfair.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to forms express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers, but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Company: MOHELA
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
My loan servicer is Mohela, and I am currently on the SAVE payment plan, and therefore, unable to make payments due to court injunctions that have resulted in me being placed in a general forbearance. On XX/XX/year>, I submitted an application to switch to another Income-Driven Repayment Plan via studentaid.gov, which was then transferred to my loan servicer, Mohela. Mohela confirmed via online correspondence in my inbox that they received my application on XX/XX/year>. 

Per federal guidance, " If you submit an application to enroll in an IDR plan other than SAVE, but your loan servicer is unable to process your application within 10 business days of receiving the application or before your next billing statement will be sent, you will be moved into a processing forbearance for up to 60 days. During this period, you do not have to make your monthly payments on your student loans, interest is accruing, and time spent does provide credit toward PSLF* and IDR When you are moved into forbearance, your loan servicer will notify you about which type of forbearance you are in and which previous months were covered by which type of forbearance. They will also notify you when you have been placed in a new IDR plan. '' It has now been 67 days since Mohela reports recieving my application, far beyond the 10 business days they had to process my application and move me to a Processing Forbearance. I have reached out twice to request that they move me to a processing forbearance. Not moving my loans into to this processing forebearance will result in financial costs to me, as I will have to " buy-back '' these months insead of recieving he PSLF credit that I am due if they follow federal guidance.
