Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally request the forgiveness of my federal student loans due to the recent security breach involving the Department of Education. On XX/XX/year>, it was widely reported that XXXX XXXX Department of Government Efficiency ( DOGE ) team gained unauthorized access to multiple internal systems within the Department of Education, including financial aid datasets containing sensitive personal information of borrowers like myself. 

As a federal student loan borrower, I am deeply concerned that my personal and financial data has been compromised due to this breach. This intrusion not only puts me at risk of identity theft and financial fraud but also undermines the integrity of my loan agreement, as my information was not adequately protected by the federal government. Given the extent of the breach and the potential misuse of borrower data, I strongly urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to take immediate action by granting full forgiveness of my federal student loans. 

I request a prompt response regarding my eligibility for forgiveness due to this unprecedented security failure by the Department of Education and my servicer, Aidvantage. Additionally, I would appreciate any available resources or guidance on how to further protect my personal and financial information in light of this breach. 

Please confirm receipt of this letter and provide updates on the status of my request at your earliest convenience. I appreciate your attention to this urgent matter.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MS

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.
