Complaint narrative:
I received my first bill for XX/XX/2022 It stated my due date was XX/XX/22. I tried by phone and email to change the due date and couldn't. I requested every month on the XXXX. I borrwed {$25.00} and made my first payment. I called today to change it for XXXX and was not allowed either. It says in their paperwork that it takes 5-7 days to process a payment. That's why I asked for the XXXX of the month. 
I get Social Security Benefits paid on the XXXX of every month. This creates a late charge for every payment I miss on the first.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have a student loan with American Education Services. They purchased my student loans at some point and I have been making payments through the XXXX XXXX XXXX Plan. 

I received a notice that I needed to renew the XXXX plan last year. I had actually already completed the process through XXXX so I was confused as to why it wasn't processed. I called AES and was advised that I needed to do a separate one with them. The person I spoke with said he could do it over the phone with me. I believe this was in XXXX. I completed the process and went through all the steps with him while we were on the phone. At that point, I was advised that I had submitted the request and my payments remained the same until I received a notice in XX/XX/2022 that my new payments would be XXXX 's the amount. I called AES to find out what happened and was told that I didn't renew the XXXX plan. The woman I spoke with advised that she saw that I did it over the phone with the processor, but it wasn't completed. She said we could do it over the phone that day, but I would still be responsible for the payment for XXXX. She was very eager to advise me to select forebarance for XXXX, but I remembered being coerced into this situation with another company who failed to tell me that if I elected forebearance my interest would be added to the principal. 

I completed the XXXX. 

On XXXX I received a letter from AES saying the following : Interest has been capitalized on the loans listed in the Loan Information section. This occurred because your forbearance, deferment, or grace period ended. 
WHAT THIS MEANS TO YOU Accrued and unpaid interest has been added to your principal balance. Your payment amount may have been adjusted to ensure your loans are paid off within the applicable timeframes. 

When I called AES and spoke with XXXX XXXX she said that it was strange, but when she looked into it she said that it was because I didn't renew the XXXX on time and if that happens then the interest would be added to the principal. 

Not only was I not advised of this at any point, but I did in fact renew on time and the person who assisted me with the XXXX application the first time failed to complete the process or tell me what steps I needed to take.

Complaint narrative:
I contacted the credit reporting agencies to obtain a copy of my credit reports and when I received them, I seen the reports were filled with inquiries and accounts that were either charged off or in collection under my name. I contacted these companies an informed them these accounts had to be in error because I have no knowledge of them I requested the companies provide me with documentation of the original contracts with dates & both parties ( my Signature as well as the Companies ) signature on the documentation they could do no such thing. I also have tried disputing these inaccuracies through the credit bureaus, they have done nothing besides ignore me the companies have not provided me with any proof of contracts/documentations or anything, but instead the credit bureaus continues to report these accounts as accurate I really need my information reported correctly and the credit bureau should not be allowed to report this in accurate information to other parties it is outright slander.

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Complaint narrative:
Hello I have recently noticed fraudulent activity on my credit reports. What I have found has lead me to believe I may be victim of identity theft, as I did not approve any information to be used in my name. I am requesting that these fraudulent items be deleted from my credit report at your earliest convenience. I actually have a security freeze on my accounts which should have alerted me prior to my credit being ran. I did not receive any notifications or alerts to my credit being ran for these accounts which is concerning. These fraudulent items are reporting inaccuracies which is directly impacting my relationships with creditors as I am going through the home buying process. I have reported the theft of my identity to the Federal Trade Commission 's Identity Theft Affidavit in regard to this incident. In addition, I have attached a PTF document reflecting all items that were found to be unauthorized by any such.
