Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I deposited {$500.00} into my new Synchrony XXXX XXXX XXXX Account. Shortly after, the account was restricted without any clear explanation. Since then, every time I call, Im told to follow up again in two days. It is now XX/XX/XXXX, and I still havent received any information regarding the reason for the restriction or an estimated timeline for resolution. This ongoing delay is unacceptable, especially given that these are my personal funds and Ive been unable to access them for over a month.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EdFinancial Services
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Ed Financial Services regarding the handling of my Income-Driven Repayment ( IDR ) plan over the past year. 

During the last year, the online portal to manage my IDR plan was unavailable, effectively pausing my participation in the program. As a direct result of this lack of access and the subsequent non-payments that were reported, my credit score has decreased by approximately XXXX points. This significant drop has negatively impacted my career opportunities. 

When I initially noticed that the IDR was not accessible online, I contacted customer service department to address the issue and was informed that there was nothing that could be done at that time. It was only after my credit score had already been negatively affected that the IDR application became available online again for me to complete.

I believe it is unjust for me to bear the negative consequences of a situation where the necessary resources for managing my student loan repayment plan were not available to me, yet I was still expected to make a substantial monthly payment of {$3500.00}. 

I request a thorough review of my case and appropriate action to rectify the damage done to my credit score due to the unavailability of the IDR program online. I look forward to your prompt response and a resolution to this matter.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a formal dispute to Equifax regarding an unauthorized hard inquiry listed on my credit report. The inquiry in question was made by : Creditor : XXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX Delete!! 

This inquiry was not authorized or initiated by me, and I have no relationship with this company. I did not apply for credit with XXXX, nor did I grant them written or verbal permission to access my credit file. This constitutes a violation of my consumer privacy rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ), which prohibits reporting inquiries not initiated by the consumer.

Furthermore, under 18 U.S.C. 1028A ( Aggravated Identity Theft ), the unauthorized use of my personal identifying information to obtain access to my credit file is a federal crime. I have reason to believe this inquiry is the result of identity theft.

As required by 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I have provided : Identification A copy of my identity theft report A written statement confirming the inquiry was not authorized by me Despite this, Equifax has failed to act within the 4-business-day statutory period to block this unauthorized inquiry. This inaction violates the FCRA and has caused further damage to my credit profile and financial security.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.
