Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
b'I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding the handling of inaccurate information on my credit report by the credit reporting agencies, despite my repeated efforts in dispute these errors. Despite multiple disputes filed with the bureau, they have failed to take appropriate action to update or delete these inaccuracies as required by law. This negligence has persisted despite my lawful right, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), I5 U.S.C.  1681, to have my credit report reflect only accurate and verifiable information. The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information (15 U.S.C.le(b)) and conduct a reasonable investigation of disputes raised by consumers (15 U.S.C.  1681). The accounts in question, listed below, contain incorrect information that I have repeatedly disputed:  XXXX XXXX EQUIFAXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EQUIFAX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EQUIFAX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EQUIFAX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXREPORTING ON  ALL BUREAU (XXXX, EQUIFAX, AND XXXX XXXX)\n\nDespite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies addressed, the bureaus have not conducted a reasonable investigation or made the required updates, violating my rights under 15 U.S.C.  1681e(b) and  168li of the FCRA. This disregard for my rights as a consumer is impacting my financial standing, and I am requesting immediate corrective action.'

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am being reported late on my student loan account by Mohela, but I am unable to access the account to make a payment. Each time I attempt to log in, I receive an error message that my account does not exist. I have contacted the company multiple times, they also said the account does not exist, and the issue remains unresolved. 

Despite this, they continue to send late notices and report delinquencies to the credit bureaus. This is inaccurate and incomplete reporting under the Fair Credit Reporting Act because I am being denied a reasonable opportunity to pay the debt. 

I am requesting that the CFPB require the company to : - Restore my account access or provide an alternative way to make payments. 
- Suspend negative reporting until I am given a way to pay. 
- Correct any inaccurate reporting caused by this issue.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Ava Finance, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because I have disputed two fraudulent accounts that appear on my credit reports with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. These accounts are from a company called XXXX XXXX, and I have no relationship with them whatsoever. The accounts are seriously damaging my credit, and despite submitting multiple disputes with documentation ( including my ID and proof of address ), the credit bureaus and Ava Finance have failed to remove them or properly investigate.XXXXI have now submitted three formal disputes, but none have resulted in any action or explanation. I believe this is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires credit bureaus to delete inaccurate or unverifiable information within 30 days. 

I am requesting that the CFPB take immediate action to ensure these fraudulent accounts are removed from my credit reports, and that both Ava Finance and the credit bureaus are held accountable for their failure to comply with federal law.

I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional XXXX  days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue related to modification, forbearance, short sale, deed-in-lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
It is absolutely unacceptable that since the transfer of my mortgage on XX/XX/XXXX, I have received XXXX communication from Mr. Cooper. No welcome letter, no payment instructions, no account information, nothing. 

I am now facing a late payment solely because your organization has failed to meet even the most basic standard of customer service : telling me where and how to pay them. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this, I have been stonewalled by an automated phone system and locked out of their website due to the absence of an account number or valid credentials, both of which you were obligated to provide. 

It is unconscionable to expect timely payment while leaving customers in the dark, and I find it both negligent and infuriating that a company handling peoples homes can be this indifferent to its responsibilities. 

My original loan owner XXXX has also been no help but they did at least let me know my loan was being sold.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I currently have a XXXX balance on my XXXX account, meaning I have no outstanding payments or purchases. According to XXXX Terms of Service, a user has the right to close their account at any time, provided there is no balance due. 

Despite fulfilling these requirements, XXXX has refused to close my account. Instead, they have merely restricted the account, preventing me from using it, but have not formally closed it as requested. This action is inconsistent with their stated policy and raises concerns about compliance with their own terms. 

I am requesting that XXXX honor their Terms of Service by fully closing my account now that all obligations have been satisfied.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the consumer reporting agency has included unauthorized hard inquiries on my credit report, which were not initiated by me. This is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and ( B ) ( i ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ) ( 5 ). These sections prohibit reporting inquiries not initiated by the consumer unless specific conditions are met, such as prior written authorization or a firm offer of credit. I did not authorize these inquiries and never provided my written consent. As such, their presence on my credit report is unlawful. The consumer reporting agency has also failed to provide evidence of permissible purpose or documentation containing my signature authorizing these inquiries.
