Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC

Complaint narrative:
After reviewing my credit profile on XX/XX/2022 I identified discrepancy with account listed under Portfolio Recovery and validation was requested as this was an account that I did not recognize. I reviewed my credit report again on XX/XX/2022 and the account continues to reflect on my credit report and I have not received any correspondence from creditor to validate this account as correctly belonging to me, nor has my credit report been updated to reflect that the account is disputed and therefore a XXXX validation letter was sent out on this day. After reviewing credit report again on XX/XX/2022 there have been no updates and account is still reflecting on the report. I do not believe the account belongs to me nor do I believe that the creditor has authorization to access the account nor authorization to attempt to collect on the account and the account continues to negatively affect me. Please strike and remove this account from all 3 credit bureaus until adequate validation has been received proving that the account belongs to me, and all information is correct.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/2022 my checking account with Citizens Bank was accessed by XXXX The XXXX deposited fraudulent checks into my account and immediately withdrew money via XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I caught the fraudulent transactions happening within a day or two because my account went into negative. I did not receive any notifications from the bank regarding suspicious transactions. After I reported the situation to the bank, I was directed to file several claims, which I completed over the phone. While XXXX and XXXX XXXX transactions were refunded, and the fraudulent checks were returned, to this day Citizens has not returned the {$3600.00} which were fraudulently, without my authorization, withdrawn from my account. Citizens is blaming XXXX for denying the claim. However, I believe because I had nothing to do with sending money via XXXX and money was withdrawn from my Citizens account, they should be the ones refunding the money they allowed to be stolen. If the issue is not resolved, I will be out of a lot of money due to Citizens refusal to honor our banking contract.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
The beginning of XX/XX/2022, I received notification from XXXX XXXX regarding an outstanding account with XXXX XXXX XXXX along with payment options to satisfy the {$9400.00} balance. I called and spoke to a representative to request a verification of debt letter. Upon receiving the information, the math was not accurate. I have reached out to XXXX and disputed this account in the past, but was informed the account had been sold to collections and to contact them with any questions. 

XXXX XX/XX/2022, I filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the discrepancy in the amount owed. CFPB dispute number XXXX. Their response regurgitated a lot of known information, however failed to address the error. The end of the response contained a phone number for XXXX XXXX and for me to call with any questions. 
XXXX XXXX, 2022, I called, as per instructed, and was again informed my account had been sold to a collection agency and for me to reach out to them with any questions. 
XXXX XXXX, 2022, I filed a dispute with CFPB ( XXXX ) with XXXX XXXX and submitted the documentation proving the amount owed is not what XXXX is claiming XXXX I added XXXX XXXX in the dispute and they received a copy. XXXX XXXX replied after reviewing the documents submitted, the collection account was sent back to XXXX XXXX. They would cease all collection activity on that account. XXXX has yet to respond to this dispute. 

I have disputed the XXXX account with through the credit reporting agencies and those were closed in favor of the creditor. I was advised to file disputes through CFPB against the CRAs considering the documentation proves my case and the information being reported is inaccurate. In addition, trying to get this resolved with the creditor has proven ineffective as incorrect information was provided to CFPB about calling for assistance, the status of my account, and they have not offered any information regarding the mathematical errors and the amount being reported vs the amount paid on the account, deduction of the amount of sale from car, exaggerated, unexplained fees that contributed to the high amount in collections. I have tried repeatedly to receive clarification on the account however misinformation has left me out of options and with a derogatory negative mark which affects my credit score severely. 

Even without the XXXX months of payments made towards the {$14000.00} balance, the vehicle was sold for {$8000.00} added to the amount owed on my craa, the amount exceedes the original plan amount

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: NE

Complaint narrative:
I started working for XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I tried to submit XXXX paperwork in XXXX to get my payment counts started, but learned my loans were not the correct type and a consolidation was necessary. This was completed in XX/XX/XXXX when my ffel loans were consolidated into direct loans. Fast-forward to XX/XX/XXXX and the temporary inclusion of ffel payments XXXX. I waited until XXXX XXXX ( apologies, I don't have the exact date written down ) before I called my servicer at the time, XXXX, to inquire why my account hadn't been closed out under the new terms. I was told that the department of Ed had not sent them payment information on prior loans so they couldn't do anything. I nosed around online and found payment information on my ffel loans and included screenshots ( not the best documentation, I know ) along with a fresh pslf form, hoping that would prod them into reviewing the account when it came up for review. This form was never processed and my account was transferred to MOHELA in XXXX ( at least XXXX additional calls had been made to FedLoan seeking status of the DOE XXXX, which I'm told was received, but there was no way to give me an estimate on when my specific data would be reviewed ). We are now 12 months later with an account that has had ZERO action by the servicers, that has a documented qualifying period between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Given the existing qualifying range, this balance should be forgiven without any further paperwork required. I have included screenshots of my XXXX payments made on the ffel loans ( serviced by XXXX ) XXXX as well as screenshots from MOHELA records XXXX the beginning and end of the qualifying payments already recorded. All calls with MOHELA have had wait times in excess of 2 hours with no progress or concrete information available. 
I am not, and have not asked for much -- just a confirmation my ffel payments are on record and that the loan is scheduled for forgiveness before we enter another tax year. It blows my mind hearing people that had to consolidate their loans and submit pslf forms for the first time being forgiven and I can't get an account simply reviewed and forgiven off historical records. 
Any assistance in getting this done in XXXX would be much appreciated!
