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

Subissue: Problem with personal statement of dispute

Consumer Complaint: Last year approximately XX/XX/XXXX my husband and I were presented with a plan that would allow us to delay mortgage payments under the Security Cares Act. Immediately we asked if this would negatively impact our credit. Of course we were told no because our payments were current prior to the initiating this plan. We opted in for this reason. At the end of this deferrment period, we were given the option to place those payments at the end of the loan. This is the option we elected. On XX/XX/XXXX I pulled my credit reports after denial for business credit for a derogatory report on my credit report. Unfortunately I discover Navy Federal Credit Union has labeled our mortgage as current but under a loan modification plan. This is seen by creditors as a negative reporting. We had no idea they would label our account as loan modification. The letter received only said they would report it as current. Nothing else. After failed phone call attempts during XX/XX/XXXX to get XXXX XXXX to remove the derogatory comment, I sent the following letter via their messaging system. The following letter was sent on XX/XX/XXXX to Navy Federal Credit Union regarding Mortgage Loan Your Message XX/XX/XXXX : Navy Federal Credit Union XX/XX/XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I recently applied for business credit and was denied for this business credit due to a report of participation in a loan modification program. I requested a copy of my credit report and to my surprise my current Mortgage Loan with your establishment is labeled as Loan modified but not under a federal government plan. According to the Navy Federal Credit Union letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, For members whose loans were current before entering a Plan, during the Forbearance period, we will report the loan to the credit reporting agencies as Current. My Mortgage loan past and current history is also labeled as exceptional by your institution. Therefore, should not be labeled with any derogatory labels. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called and spoke with your Mortgage representative, XXXX, regarding removing this label from my mortgage account due to the negative impact it is having on establishing my small business. She advised me to contact the credit agencies. This is insufficient advice as the negative label on my mortgage is not placed on my account by the credit agencies. This negative label is placed by the Mortgage lender. This negative comment is damaging my character, my personal mode of living to provide income for my family and my reputation. I demand this derogatory label to be removed from my credit report with all credit agencies immediately. Your company is in clear violation of the law. This negative remark is clearly a violation of the FAIR Credit REPORTING ACT 15USC 1681a4 my right to privacy. Their response was as follows : Navy Federal Response XX/XX/XXXX : Good afternoon, XXXX XXXX. We have verified that your account is reporting accurately to all 3 bureaus. The modification is showing because that is what you have as your post forbearance workout plan. If you have any questions please reach out to mortgage collections at XXXX. We totally disagree with the reporting and I have sent another certified letter to Navy Federal Credit Union on XX/XX/XXXX requesting once again to remove the derogatory statement from my account with the credit agencies. Yet the negative statement remains on my account and is interfering with my ability to launch my small business to provide for my family.

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, {$250.00} was debited from my XXXX prepaid card from Navy Federal Credit Union XXXX The authorized payment was approved with auth code XXXX. At XXXX, per my XXXX account details I was changed an {$250.00} from Navy Federal Credit Union XXXX The payment was debited with auth code XXXX. That same day, I contacted both XXXX and Navy Federal in hopes of resolving the duplicate payment error. However, I was advised by Navy Federal they are only reporting one payment received from me.

I filed a debit card dispute with Netspend and I feel they did not do a thorough investigation per Regulation E.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I have been with NavyFed for 8 years and have never been treated so poorly by any other institution in my life. My current NavyFed is located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CO XXXX. On XX/XX/2021 our state Governor lifted the mask mandates making masks a recommendation not a requirement. On that same day I went into my branch to make a deposit and was met at the door by the branch manager who immediately demanded I wear a mask. I said no thank you and she immediately became very aggressive and yelled You wear a mask or you DONT come in! At this point I obliged and put the mask she offered on. She then stands off to my left staring at me and begins to harass and belittle me in front of other members. By this point I became upset and said close my account and left the building. This is when she started to damage my credit and anything else she had the power to do by reporting to the credit bureaus missed payments for a debt over 7 years old that should be off my credit report. I few weeks later I received a letter from NavyFeds physical security dept threatening me in an attempt to intimidate me from disagreeing with her. This same women has also harassed other NavyFed members in front of everyone in the building, ONLY hires females and hates all military personnel and freedom. Its sad to see an entity claiming to be military friendly but then hiring people like her who treat our nations service members and veterans like this. To go out of the way to cause harm to consumers who do not agree politically with her or NavyFed is unethical and UnAmerican. I have in possession my credit report the threatening letter to support my claim.
