Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, Consumer, Natural person, wrote a letter to Navy Federal Credit Union addressed to CEO, XXXX XXXX of furnishing inaccurate information, and failing to follow reasonable procedures for ensuring the accuracy of Consumer information, failing to properly investigate a Consumer dispute and issuing or obtaining a Consumer report for impermissible purposes has caused Consumer severe and actual damages for an account that is on Consumer credit report for a number of years as a CHARGED OFF.

Along with Consumer letter of them having a duty, the Consumer also sent in the IRS Form 1099 OID is which was submitted to IRS in XXXX. As stated in my letter informing NFCU that they CHARGED OFF the said debt on the REVOLVING CREDIT CARD that was paid in full. IRS Publication 4681 states if NFCU never sent Consumer a 1099 C form but DISCHARGED the debt and according to the IRS NFCU must report cancelled debt as gross income on NFCU tax returns and the IRS clearly define CHARGED OFF as gross or ordinary income which does not get reported on CONSUMER reports, which is fact makes NFCU reporting inaccurate. NFCU reported to XXXX that this debt was a collection and charge off and payments after charge off/collection-paid profit and loss while they reported to XXXX unpaid balance reported as a loss by credit grantor and that Consumer opened this account on XX/XX/XXXX. NFCU decided not to respond to this account # XXXX and instead decided to address an active XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account that has never had any issues. NFCU requested for Consumer to send : 1. Detailed description of the item and why Consumer feel it is inaccurate 2. Date of the disputed item. 3. Full XXXX account number in question 4.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: The XXXX has misinterpreted the law which effectively provides lenders with avenues to essentially discriminate in providing credit access to their XXXX loan benefit. The XXXX has stated in response that lenders are allowed to institute overlays regarding the government backed program. The problem is that XXXX never actually considers the discriminate results against veterans of such overlays that appear to break several finance and housing laws.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed

Consumer Complaint: 1 ) After filing for a bankruptcy and having it discharged, Navy Federal Credit Union has a permanent message posted to your account that you see when you sign in on both the website and mobile app platform. The message states " Your account information is being provided for informational purposes only. Providing you this information is not an attempt to collect a debt. '' I've called and asked to have this message removed as there is no debt anymore because it was discharged. Therefore, this message only serves as a punitive punishment and " brand '' that Navy Federal gives its customers who fell on hard times and filed bankruptcy. Its as if they are constantly reminding you that you caused them a loss. 2 ) I applied for a Navy Federal Credit Union credit card on XX/XX/2022 and was denied. I knew it was because of my bankruptcy that included a loss to them. However, I sent a message through the secure message portal asking if I will ever be able to reestablish credit with Navy Federal or will I forever be disapproved/declined for Navy Federal loan or credit products. On XX/XX/2022 I received a response that stated they are unable to extend credit to members who have caused Navy Federal a financial loss. The response also stated " If you are interested in repayment information of the loss account balance, please contact our Bankruptcy Department during normal business hours at XXXX. '' This goes against my rights as a bankruptcy filer. They shouldn't even be bringing this up to individuals who filed bankruptcy and caused them a loss. It seems like a subtle hint that if you pay them back they will then approve you for credit.
