Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Complaint narrative:
I was notified when applying for a business loan that my credit had suddenly dropped by over XXXX points. This was due to my credit reflecting a 90 day deliquency from missed payments to MOHELA. I was unaware that the loans were no longer in forebearance, nor was I able to access my account ( evidently MOHELA changed their website which also forced a new customer registration ). I have the money to pay and would have gladly done so to ensure I don't have this kind of negative impact on my credit. I operate successful businesses and know the significance and value of healthy credit.
