Complaint narrative:
Contacted EdFinancial on XX/XX/XXXX via email to request refunds of student loan payments made during the COVID payment pause ( beginning XX/XX/XXXX ). I continued to follow up via email and submit any requested documents and Edfinancial has not given me a date of when my refund will be processed and when I will receive the refund to my account, while other service providers are processing within XXXX weeks and sometimes within XXXX weeks. I received no confirmation of request for a total of {$4900.00} of payments made since the payment pause. I need the balance reinstated and refund ASAP for correct student loan forgiveness eligibility. They were fined for misleading consumers and their latest data breach too.

XXXX has blocked me from deleting fraudulent address that I have attached to my FTC Report stating that they wont delete it.

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. Transunion had completed nothing to correct my Credit Report and eliminate the Fraudulent Information totally from my Credit File. I have been sending uncountable letters appealing to Transunion to confirm the disputed items and take out them if unable to show that the Items are mine. I have been a victim of Identity Theft and the accounts I am disputing do not narrate to any business that I have made or approved. Neither did I obtain any ownership of goods, money, services, nor profits from the Theft of my Identity. I have read that Transunion is guaranteed to fulfill the FCRA regulation section 605b but regardless of all my labors to notify Transunion about the theft of my Individuality and that the items were never mine, Transunion never feel a concern nor paid any care to my Disputes. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, XXXX, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) I need the following items removed now!

These creditors refused to take my method of payment and are reporting my accounts as late. I requested a dispute and validation of debt from the creditors pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g and they have failed to send any validations of the debts since receiving my requests I requested these accounts be corrected by Experian after finding the contracts with the creditors were all fradulent as they did not inform me of right to rescind pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( b ) ( 1 ).

It is a Fact that according to 12 CFR Part 1026.17 ( a ) these contracts were not clear and conspicuous and are therefore fradulent. These accounts are disputed/terminated and must be corrected immediately.
