Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

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.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing incorrect late payment marks on multiple federal student loan accounts serviced by XXXX and Navient during XXXX. All of my federal loans were protected under federal COVID-19 relief programs, including the CARES Act and subsequent extensions, which paused payments and prohibited reporting of late payments to credit bureaus from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. 

Despite these protections, XXXX and Navient reported late payments on multiple accounts during this period. This is inaccurate, violates federal law, and harms my credit. Specifically, this violates : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i and 1681c-2, which requires that credit reports be accurate and corrected when inaccurate.

Federal student loan protections under the CARES Act, which prohibit reporting of late payments during the COVID-19 relief period.

Company: CreditNinja Lending, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a personal loan through CreditNinja. I only authorized them to view my statement and credit score, which I signed, and then they tricked me into approving a loan I didn't agree to. They claim I owe approximately {$2500.00}. I contacted their customer service because I was struggling to pay the debt and wanted to discuss a possible payment arrangement or debt clarification. 

However, the representative I spoke with offered me no solution or payment plan. Instead, they insisted I pay the full balance immediately. I also asked for instructions on how to repay or cancel the loan, but they refused to explain or help me. 

I felt deceived and trapped, as this isn't my first time applying for a loan and I've never faced a situation like this before. I've tried to resolve this directly with CreditNinja on several occasions, but they haven't offered me any fair or reasonable options. 

I request that the CFPB review this case and ensure that CreditNinja provides me with transparent information and a reasonable way to resolve or repay the loan without unfair treatment.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission identity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency XXXX furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a XXXX grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case. 


Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any.

information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.
