Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to address a pressing matter regarding my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Account Number XXXX, which is currently inaccurately reported on my credit report. This discrepancy is not only undermining my credit standing but also infringing upon my rights as a consumer under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the guidelines outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681a regarding consumer reports. As per 15 U.S. Code 1681a, a " consumer report '' encompasses any communication of information by a consumer reporting agency bearing on a consumer 's creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living, which is used or expected to be used for various purposes, including but not limited to credit, insurance, and employment. Given this definition, I am formally requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX take immediate action regarding the inaccurately reported closed account on my credit file. Specifically, I urge you to promptly update the status of Account XXXX XXXX to reflect that it has been paid in full. This account was initially opened on XX/XX/year>, and has since been closed. Any outstanding balances associated with this account have been fully settled and resolved. However, the continued reporting of this account without acknowledging its paid status is not only inaccurate but also significantly detrimental to my credit standing. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects the resolution of this account to prevent any unwarranted negative impact on my creditworthiness. I trust that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX will address this matter with the urgency it warrants and in strict accordance with the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Furthermore, I anticipate receiving confirmation once the necessary actions have been taken to update the status of Account XXXX XXXX on my credit report. Should you require any additional documentation or information from my end to facilitate this process, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution that upholds my rights as a consumer and ensures the accuracy of my credit report.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Getting a loan — High pressure sales tactics or recruiting
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I want a full refund on my private student loans for having attended XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX Fraudulent school and receiving your predatory private student loans. 

Thousands of students were scammed by Navient into taking out predatory private loans to attend for profit online schools such as the one I attended, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As a matter of fact, XXXX XXXX were investigated and found to be a scam school by the Department of Education. 

Because of the numerous claims of fraud and misconduct perpetrated by these online for profit schools, such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I was able to file a Borrower Defense claim with the Dept. of Education against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and my Fed. loans were discharged and my credit repaired. 

My Borrower Defense Claim was also part of the XXXX XXXX XXXX settlement for which I was a full class member. 

I am aware that Navient was sued by 39 state AGs regarding their predatory loans to attend these online for-profit schools and that Sallie Mae/Navient were a " preferred '' lending company in a " deal '' with these schools during the early XXXX XXXX. These private loans with a high risk of default were part of a package deal offered to " for profit online schools ''. But loans made to students in states outside of the agreement, or those who were not in default for 7 months or more during a " specific '' time frame, were excluded. I am sure this was a big win for Navient, but what a sham of a settlement deal for the rest of borrowers scammed into taking loans to at least XXXX for profit online schools. After the AG settlement, didn't Navient also get out of the Federal student loan business due to scrutiny from lawmakers and borrower advocates? Didn't Navient have to pay restitution to the Federal student loan borrowers for not informing students of IDR/IBR payments students could have enrolled in, but instead steered toward forbearance? Furthermore, hasn't Navient been sued at least a half dozen times for other predatory loan practices and illegal collection practices? 

I am also aware of a " pilot '' program by which Navient is sending out " applications '' to select students who may have filed Borrower Defense claims against their schools and were approved. This application is a sham. Why do we need to prove anything? Navient knows who we are. Under the FTC " Holder Rule '' Navient is liable for giving predatory loans in connection with online for-profit schools. Time is running out for Navient to do right by students who were scammed into taking out private loans to attend online for profit colleges who have committed misconduct and misrepresented themselves to the public to entice students to enroll. XXXX XXXX XXXX has sent a letter to Navient 's CEO asking to discharge these loans NOW! It's time Navient do the right thing and discharge all these predatory private loans made to attend online for profit schools.

Complaint narrative:
Since XXXX, Nelnet has been deducting 2 seperate amounts per month. The larger amount ( {$540.00} ) is not being applied to my loan. It has totaled about {$3200.00} deducted from my checking account ( seems to be about the XXXX day of every month, XXXX through XXXX ) that has not been applied to the principal amount or interest of my loan. I have contacted both my bank, who has confirmed Nelnet is deducting the money, as well as Nelnet who told me they don't know anything about that amount being deducted and don't see it on their end. I am sure they're taking the money and not putting it towards my loan which is not right.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Pursuant to the CFPB, the definition of a consumer report is any written, oral, or other communication of any information by a consumer reporting agency that bears on a consumers creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living that is used or expected to be used or collected, in whole or in part, for the purpose of serving as a factor in establishing the consumers eligibility for any of the following : XXXX credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes. 

Pursuant to the CFPB, the term consumer report does not include any of the following : XXXX. 
any report containing information solely about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. 

EXPERIAN, XXXX & XXXX along with their subsidaires have blatantly disregarded this matter and continue to report derogatory information on my credit report such as LATE PAYMENTS and CHARGED-OFF accounts -that are transactions solely between myself the consumer and the issuer of the credit. This direct violation of the FCRA, has caused my credit score to tank/decrease more than 100 points, rendering me ineligible to apply for a mortgage and other credit related products. This matter has seriously impacted my life in a negative way, and hope to resolve this matter without seeking further legal assistance.
