Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after XXXX days.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: MOHELA
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
It appears that Mohela is wrongfully adding loans to my account. My balance is reporting {$6000.00}, which is incorrect because my balance was roughly XXXX, and on XX/XX/2023, my federal government job sent in a payment of XXXX to Mohela which was posted on the old Mohela service but not updated on my credit report. After this payment was applied to Mohela, my balance was around XXXX on the old Mohela XXXX. 

Now on the new mohela and on all of my credit reports, the balance is reflelcting XXXX which is incorrect. I called Mohela agents numerous times and I am getting conflicting information. XXXX agent told me that I was correct but could not offer a solution and another agent this week told me that I owe the XXXX. The numbers do not add up and this is not accured interest. This is simply a wrongful charge and I feel that I am being taken advantage of by Mohela. I have not been provided opportunity to speak to a supervisor. This is extremely unacceptable and false documentation of financial history after payments have been made.

Hello, I hope you can help me. Recently, since XXXX I have taken on the task of repairing my credit, so I have sent notifications to the credit bureaus, however everything has been ignored since the bureaus do not respond to me or update anything. They have had the irresponsibility of sending me a letter claiming that they are not going to do anything because they believe that I am not the one submitting the disputes. I would like to know what methods they used to determine that, that seems very false to me and only denotes that they are evading their responsibility.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
The recertification process for an income driven repayment plan was pushed back. This is the exact wording on the Federal government 's website. The deadline to recertify your IDR plan has been extended to XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The earliest you will have to update your income and family size for your IDR plan to meet that deadline is XX/XX/2024. Mohela ended up kicking me out of my plan and raising my payments from {$90.00} to over {$400.00} because they said I did not recertify on time. Since they are tied to federal loans they should be following that same statement. I called Mohela when I saw a payment for over {$400.00} processing from my bank account. Mohela said that the best they can do is put me in forbearance for the next few months and refund my money. I have not received my refund yet and am worried this will affect my payments towards PSLF.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
In good faith, I XXXX XXXX XXXX, Agent on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX , hereby accept all titles, rights, interest, and equity owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Upon reading and studying American Express XXXX filings and Indenture Agreement between American Express and the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX I have discovered securities fraud to be conducted within the company. I want to begin by first explaining how securities fraud is being conducted within the Company American Express. I would like to take your attention to page 66 of American Expresss XXXX filings LONG-TERM DEBT AND ASSET SECURITIZATION PROGRAMS. This states, We periodically securitize Card Member loans and receivables arising from our U.S. card business, as the securitization market provides us with cost-effective funding. Securitization of Card Member loans and receivables is accomplished through the transfer of those assets to a trust, which in turn issues securities collateralized by the transferred assets to third-party investors. This is a barter transaction so if I need to contact the IRS to tell them I gave American Express exchange of security and American Express decided not to comply, I will file against your charter.

Due to American Express selling consumers securities/applications to third parties investors this amounts to securities fraud with accordance to the rules and regulations from the Securities Exchange Commission ( SEC ) that strictly prohibits companies selling consumers Global Securities on the secondary market. The transfer of Securities started when I gave an application for an extension of credit by applying through the respective companies website. The application/XXXX XXXX is then electronically transferred to American Express where it is then transferred to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX being the Trustee. Each Security has an attached unique CUSIP number ( Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures ) which allows the use of CUSIP numbers for identification purposes in the issuance and redemption of Securities. On XX/XX/2023 I applied for an American Express Business Platinum Charge Card and on XXXX XXXX XXXX I applied for an American Express Gold Charge Card and was denied even though value being my XXXX XXXX was given to The Company.

They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.
