I would like to know how and when was I notified that I was supposed to start payments in XXXX of 2014? I was still contemplating classes and under the impression I was in deferment.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: I reviewed my person credit report to see where I stand with my credit score back in XX/XX/2020. I came to realized that someone used my identity to obtain several student loans. I assumed that these are college/university student loans. My college tuition was all paid for by my parents, therefore, I did not have the need to obtain student loans. I requested a proper validation and removal of these accounts from my credit report. XXXX and XXXX XXXX found these accounts to be fraudulent, so two companies removed these accounts immediately from my credit report. But XXXX is continuing to post these accounts without proving their validation and verification of these accounts. I am very upset that XXXX is ignoring my identity theft report that was filed to FTC and a police department. DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$3500.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$4500.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXXXXXX ( {$5500.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$5500.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) DEPT OF EDUCATION/NELN XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) This is the list of student loan accounts that are being reported on my credit report.

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: I was looking through my report and noticed a vehicle that I returned to the dealership where it's reporting completely incorrect. I had the opportunity to talk to several lawmakers and friends, and learned some basic laws in regards to voluntary or repossession of a vehicle. Under the laws of MASS and UCC 9.506 as well as State RISA and MVISA statutes, a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to. PLEASE HAVE THEM IMMEDIATELY REMOVE

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer

Subissue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Consumer Complaint: I am on an income driven payment plan for my FFEL Student Loans that are being serviced by Nelnet. On XX/XX/2020 I submitted my annual recertification and Nelnet sent me an email confirming that my application was received. I received no response to this application. On XX/XX/2020 I again submitted my annual recertification and Nelnet sent me an email confirming that my application was received. I received no response to this application. On XX/XX/2020, I submitted yet another application to have my loans recertified and again Nelnet sent me an email confirming my application was received. I received no response to this application. Around this same date, I sent a message to Nelnet through their website regarding this issue. I did receive a response to this inquiry stating that it would take 15 days for my request to be reviewed. 15 days came and went of course with no response from Nelnet. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent another message to Nelnet through their website. On XX/XX/2020, I actually received an reply email from Nelnet. This time they stated that more information was needed to complete my application. I promptly provided the information that was requested. On XX/XX/2020, Nelnet approved my recertification application. In the meantime, my previous IDR expired, and Nelnet increased my payment from about {$240.00} to {$850.00} per month. I repeatedly told Nelnet that I can not afford this payment. Now, Nelnet has my loans 90 days past due and is reporting late payments to my credit report. I tried to contact Nelnet about this issue and, of course, they did not respond. I feel that Nelnets negligence caused this and my efforts to resolve this are fruitless. I hope you can help me. I have documentation of all requests I made to Nelnet if needed.
