Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: MOHELA
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I have submitted my XXXX XXXX XXXX  application to Mohela XXXX times. Each time it has been denied due to clerical errors. First I had filled out a section I shouldn't have. So I was instructed to cross them out, write my initials next to the crossed out information, and resubmit. Then I was told I hadn't crossed out the information well enough. Then it was because I didn't have the date written correctly on my dates of employment. When I called to asked what date they were looking for, I was told I needed to write the exact date. I resubmitted, and was denied again for the same reason or I had sent a duplicate document and they deleted the correct form. The latest denial is that Mohela is claiming I didn't not have my SSN or address of the school I was working at documented in the correct section of my application. The application I submitted has both my SSN and school address written in the correct places. They also claimed that I am only eligible for {$5000.00} dollars of loan forgiveness, but I was a XXXX XXXX XXXX for 9 years, which qualifies me for much more than {$5000.00}.

Complaint narrative:
I want to file a complaint against LVNV Funding for there deceptive and abusive collection practices. This is a very frustrating experience designed to bait and switch and deceptively take advantage of consumers trying to do the right thing. This company should be ashamed of themselves. 

On XX/XX/year>, I logged into the LVNV/Resurgent website to see what my debts are with them, and I was able to see that my account for XXXX XXXX  ending in XXXX has a settlement offer of {$250.00}, which was a 40 % settlement from the balance of {$620.00}. I thought to myself, well that's excellent, I will pay on on my next pay day. So When I logged back in about XXXX  days later, they had now raised the offer to {$550.00}, more than double what they wanted just XXXX  days prior. I called them and asked them about this, but of course they just said there was nothing they could do. This is deception, witfully deceiving and attempting to coerce me into paying double what they wanted just a few days before. I find this practice appalling, and ask that the CFPB look into this practice.

Complaint narrative:
They dont answer. When I put my info in to create an account it says not found. I can access my private loans but not the federal side. So I would have happily paid on time but it takes hours on hold and they hang up/disconnect due to high calls Im assuming? Ive tried numerous times to gain access and no help provided by Mohela. They also have not called me or emailed me with appropriate timely manner to pay. If I had access to the account I would pay it. They are mismanaging my federal financial aid and ruining my credit score. Their system is not accurate or reliable and many students are having identical issues.
