Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against XXXX, XXXX, and Experian for reporting unauthorized inquiries on my credit reports and their refusal to investigate my claims.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
I requested a copy of my MPN for my consolidation loans in group XXXX from Nelnet. Nelnet responded on XX/XX/XXXX, with an incomplete, and what appears to be altered MPN. First, the document Nelnet provided starts on page 3 and does NOT match what is found on DOE website. I have included the blank form, along with the document Nelnet provided for reference. Clearly, these two forms do not match! Not surprisingly, the information Nelnet excluded is the specific information necessary to determine accuracy [ or lack thereof ] the amounts Nelnet claims I owe. This information includes identification of loans that were consolidated, the loan number of the original loan [ s ] being consolidated, and the estimated payoff of the loan being consolidated. Furthermore, the document Nelnet produced as the MPN for these loans is dated XX/XX/XXXX. However, a separate document Nelnet produced with my account summary indicates that the loan was disbursed on XX/XX/XXXX. These dates are 4.5 months apart. This document is also included for reference.

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EXPERIAN was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

EXPERIAN Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I sold my home that was mortgaged through Wells Fargo. We closed and my title company attempted to pay off my loan on Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX. Wells Fargo would not allow the payoff citing an escrow shortage of {$4700.00} incurring {$32.00} interest each day. They received the payoff request no later than XX/XX/XXXX from the title company so should not have issued any payments. Additionally, I tried to inform them and produce documentation that I had paid for the insurance policy out of pocket, and that it was not paid from escrow. I confirmed with my insurance company that they did not send a bill to Wells Fargo, just confirmation of the policy. The insurance company also confirmed they had not received any payment from Wells Fargo either. Wells Fargo failed to produce any documentation to me to confirm proof of payment, no receipt, bill from insurance, no check #, nothing. Instead they yelled at me and mansplained what escrow was and how insurance works and ignored my requests for documentation demanding that I wire funds over the phone in order to complete the payoff of my mortgage. I asked for a manager and was not connected to one. When I tried to conference call back with my insurance on the line, I could not get through to anymore. Wells Fargo erroneously is dragging this out and charging me interest and it seems is getting dangerously close to making me default on my mortgage for non-payment as they will not allow the payoff. They are not producing any documentation as proof of their payment and my insurance has not received any payment from Wells Fargo. This should have been a joyous, easy and exciting payoff transaction that Wells Fargo ruined through their harassment, condescension, lack of accountability and failure to take action to remedy the situation with urgency. I feel scammed by their lack of professionalism and attempt to hold my payoff hostage unless I produced {$4700.00} to them through a phone wire without producing any documentation as proof of their payment. I am sickened by their unethical business tactics and felt that the bureau needed to be informed as these tactics likely are effective on those that are less savvy than myself to refuse payment without them producing documentation. The customer service reps were incredibly rude to me and the title officer, claiming that we " don't understand how this works. '' I highly suggest alerting the authorities to this attempted fraud that I fear may negatively impact my impeccable credit. Meanwhile, Wells Fargo continues to demonstrate poor treatment of their consumers and unfair business practices.
