Complaint narrative:
This is my new complaint that I am a victim of identity theft and I submit to dispute certain items in my file resulting from the crime.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Navient has continued their predatory practice to include late payments, remarks, and negative history on my accounts across multiple credit reports/bureaus. After many attempts for Navient and the reporting bureaus to fix the inaccurate reports I am still finding more or updated inaccuracies. After years of trying to repair the damage I found today they have still kept up this grotesque practice. 

My loans, like most, were transferred off of navient to XXXX, and later XXXX, beginning in late XXXX. I have a welcome letter from XXXX  from XX/XX/2021. Somehow despite my accounts no longer being held by naveint for XXXX  months and in the middle of a FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN FOREBEARANCE, navient is showing I missed payments over XXXX  days late, negative comments, and late payment histories of multiple missed payments. 

I demand navient write a letter to each credit bureau apologizing and highly recommending me for any credit line. I also demand penalties be assessed to Navient for fraud, providing knowingly false reports and documentation, and negligence. Finally, I demand they remove all of their reports/accounts/etc from my credit reports across all bureaus.
