Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Synovus Bank
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I haven't provided evidence in accordance with the doctrine, so you may assume, under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, that there is no proof of the purported debt and, as a result, no such liability, if the debt collector has not provided the requested proof of the alleged debt within 30 days. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I restate my demand for proof of the debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must terminate this collection action, and correct any erroneous reports of this debt as mine. For the record, I state again : As I have no account with you, nor am I your customer, nor have I ever entered a contract with you, I must ask you to provide the following information : 1.

Please evidence of your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence of your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature bearing my signature bearing my signature.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Don't agree with the fees charged
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Navient failed to inform me when the pandemic payment pause was ending and subsequently started charging me late fees totaling over {$1500.00} before I became aware of it. 

I called and complained about it and they reduced the amount owed but it was only about {$400.00}. It doesnt make any sense that they would only eliminate only a portion of the late fees. It was their fault for not communicating when the pause was ending. 

I never chose to have navient be my loan servicer. My XXXX  loans were passed off to them without my consent. Ive been making loan payments for almost 2 years as required by navient. Somehow, these federal loans were not eligible for the loan pause that is ending this month for others.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Another individual 's address and related credit information have been wrongly associated with me. This was incorrectly reported to my record on XX/XX/XXXX. I have been wrongfully associated with individuals with similar names and dates of birth from the county of XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX. That is the first time information has been wrongfully associated with my record and has only been repeated as I was associated with another individual after that and again in this instance but related to my credit. I have already appeared in court on XX/XX/XXXX to clear this mistake but it seems like it has not been completely fixed yet as I am still being associated with this incorrect information tied to my record. After a dispute that was issued on XX/XX/XXXX, the disputed item was removed from my credit report which was XXXX XXXX XXXX, reporting a balance of {$4200.00}. But it appears that the information has not been completely corrected yet as they keep referring to me with the wrong name.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My Chase debit account was charged charges totaling XXXX along with exchange rates since this fraudulent charge on my debit card was international. When I checked my account on XX/XX/XXXX at around XXXX XXXX, I saw that I was negative XXXX - XXXX dollars and saw 17 charges on XXXX dollars from XXXX. I live in XXXX and have no contact with anything in XXXX. I immediately called chase and the agent told me to wait 2 days until the pending charges went completely through so that I could file a claim for them. After 2 days, on the XXXX, I filed a claim to get the money back. On Monday, I called chase where they tell me that the claim has been denied. Apparently, they say that a card was approved from an access code that was sent to my device. The device in question is almost always turned off and I did not give anyone an access code. I told them to please reinvestigate since I am not at fault here and I need my money back. After calling every day since that Monday the XXXX, today the XXXX, they tell me that my claim has been denied again. This amount is half my paycheck and has made me struggle with other debt I had to pay off.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Hi to whom concerned, I do not understand why Experian does not respond to my disputes. It has been well over 30, even 45 days and no response! 

I sent out a dispute certified mail that I know for sure Experian received on XX/XX/2023 at XXXX because they had to sign off on it. ( Attached document " Experian Failure to Respond '' ) I have yet to receive any correspondence back, and more importantly, Experian has not removed the erroneous bankruptcy from my Experian reports. 

This means they are in direct violation on 15 US Code 1681i! 

The other bureaus, including XXXX, removed the bankruptcy from my credit report because they came to conclusion that it was erroneous. ( Attachment " XXXX XXXX Experian Dispute ( 1 ) .pdf ).

Experian must have came to the same conclusion, which is why they have failed to respond to my dispute.

Bottom Line : The account in question this bankruptcy needs to be DELETED from my credit reports, since Experian failed to respond in a timely manner according to the law!

Complaint narrative:
I disagree with the results of your recent verification pertaining to the items reported on my credit account. I had initially lodged a dispute regarding this item, and I wish to address certain aspects of your verification process which I believe require further examination. In your response, it was mentioned that my claim is disputed, and a request for VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM of the alleged debt was made in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Furthermore, as a consumer invoking my specified remedy and as the original creditor, I understand that my request for VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM is in accordance with applicable regulations, but I would appreciate further clarification and specific documentation in relation to these demands. Specifically, I kindly request that the certified copy of the original contract bearing my signature be provided, explicitly naming your company as an entity authorized to enforce a commercial claim against me. The notarization process, as mentioned in my initial communication, remains of great importance in ensuring the accuracy and authenticity of this documentation.
