Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I have a student loan through the servicer XXXX, opened in XXXX, which I paid off and closed XXXX XXXX, XXXX. My monthly statements began in XXXX XXXX. I paid above the minimum payment every month until account closure. My credit, however, does not show the correct information for either XXXX or Equifax. With Equifax, this loan is not shown at all. I have had incredible difficulty submitting a dispute or contacting Equifax, and so have not had any contact with the company at all. I attempted to call Equifax at the number listed online ( XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX -- whoever answered asked me very personal questions, including my full home address and full SSN. He also texted me a verification code and asked that I give him the number. I stated that that behavior was strange, and I was nervous about being scammed. He said, " I need this information to verify your identity ''. This seemed very odd, so I hung up and have not tried again since then. With XXXX, I have submitted two disputes. At first, the loan showed at full balance, no payments, as of XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted the first dispute on that date, providing screenshots of payments and {$0.00} balance. The results of that dispute, ready XX/XX/XXXX, still led to inaccurate reporting -- the loan showed as closed, with payments of {$0.00} made from XXXX. I submitted the second dispute on XX/XX/XXXX to argue against these changes. The results from the second dispute, sent on XX/XX/XXXX, stated that the published information was correct and would not be changed. I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to state that my payments were not being accurately reported to the bureaus. The representative stated, " There is no credit reporting on this account. You should reach out to the credit bureaus, '' and that there was nothing to be done on XXXX 's side.
