Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
All dates since credit card was opened. Chase credit card. the limit was {$4100.00}. Charges were made in that amount. I disputed and they said that they believe half the amount was fraud and the other half is not. I submitted an affidavit of forgery, fraud letter and police report, and they still say that half the balance is fraud. BUT-ALL the charges were not mine. I have been fighting with them about their said findings and they refuse to give me any documentation. They said by law, they didn't have to. They also lowered the credit limit to the balance currently on the card that they believe is not fraud. Credit card ends in : XXXX. I do not know what the full account number is because they will not tell me. They just continue to try to bill me and I refuse to pay for charges that are not mine. This is ridiculous and needs to stop now.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
My credit score on XXXX and XXXX is around XXXX. On Experian it is significantly lower, XXXX. Experian has previously told me that in order for them to raise it I have to sign up for their service. My score remains about XXXX points below the other two agencies yet all the information is the same. I asked for information as to why this continues and Epxerian has refused to respond to my two requests. They did send an email for a survey of how they did handling my issue. They never handled the issue. 

I understand that scores will vary but they should be close. It seems that XXXX points is significant and that my score is being lowered because I will not pay for their services or sign up for additional services.

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal complaint that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit information on my Credit Report.

The account listed below should not show a late payment. I called multiple times to make my payment and was told I could not make my payment while my account was under review for an extension. After I was approved and made my payment, they reported it late and refuse to remove it when it was their system that would not allow me to make the payment early. XXXX XXXX  has already been involved in a CFPB complaint in 2019 and was required to pay a penalty of {$200000.00} and {$34000.00} in restitution to all the consumers affected. This is clearly a pattern for XXXX  to take advantage of consumers.

Company: MOHELA
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I asked Mohela back in XXXX about the loan adjustment and forgiveness but no answer. Then on XX/XX/XXXX the following : " Your 12-month period of payments under the Saving on a Valuable Education ( SAVE ) plan is due to expire. The SAVE plan replaced the Revised Pay As You Earn ( REPAYE ) plan. Recertify your income and family size now to renew this plan for another 12-month period. Avoid missing the recertification deadline of XX/XX/XXXX and calculate monthly payments under this plan for another 12-month period. If we do not receive your recertification request in time : Your monthly payment will adjust to approximately {$820.00} '' I sent my recertification via studentaid.gov that same day to be safe. Today I get a message saying " Correspondence Processing Delay, Your recent request has been received. It is expected your pending request will be processed within the next 90. '' However the next 90 days would be in XXXX which is after the deadline of XX/XX/XXXX they mention above. This feels very much like a scam to get excessive money from people because they state " However, if your loan ( s ) are in repayment, payment ( s ) remain due, and if you are participating in Auto Debit, this remains active. '' I want assurance that my payments will not increase to {$820.00} a month after XX/XX/XXXX due to their inability to process documentation in a timely manner as a loan servicer. I submitted the recertification as soon as they notified me. There is no way I can afford to pay {$820.00} a month. That's quite ridiculous.
