Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information is missing that should be on the report

Consumer Complaint: Yes, I filed bankruptcy, and reaffirmed my auto loan with Santander USA. Since the discharge they have not started reporting back to the credit bureaus. They stated that they will not resume reporting to the three credit bureaus. I have read the law and to my understanding that when you reaffirm the loan that they are obligated to report my payments being made. This is affecting my credit and that was the whole point of filing for bankruptcy.

Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Fraudulent loan

Consumer Complaint: I leased a car through Santander consumer and I found out after it really came from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I lost my job kept up with payments but asked for some type of deferred payment. I was led on that after another payment I would get relief it never happened. A few months after my car got stuck in garage and I had to rent from XXXX and it was because someone from the dealership I got car from tried to break in my garage n damaged it. I had to rent from XXXX they started embezzling funds from my credit card an not releasing my deposits. The manager refused to call me back or fix the issue and they restricted me as a result of me calling corporate. I later found out my car that is stuck in garage is from XXXX an that was why they were stealing funds from my card illegally. XXXX keeps hacking into my credit card account or know someone from my credit card account and are messing with my account an even overdrafted my account. Threats continuously everytime I call corporate because no one calls back to resolve the issue. Its been a year I have been fighting this issue

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Subissue: Loan balance remaining after the vehicle is repossessed and sold

Consumer Complaint: I purchased my vehicle in the month of XXXX of XXXX, the car was repossessed a year later in XXXX due to a very high payment of {$490.00} that was impossible to keep up with. Due to the loss of the car, I lost my job and was unable to provide for my family and my children. A couple of days ago, I came across an article on the " XXXX XXXX website '' stating that Santander Consumers USA INC. was involved in a nationwide investigation throughout 34 states ( Including Georgia ) and found evidence of sophisticated credit-score tracking methods designed to prey on those with the highest risk of loan default. Santander Consumer USA INC.was later found guilty in the class-action lawsuit for deception and predatory lending practices. In the settlement, Santander had agreed to relieve all defaulted loans and to help repair the credit of the individuals that were affected by Santander 's deceptive actions from the timeline of XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX ( In which my account falls within the timeframe ). XXXX reported the date of last payment was XX/XX/XXXX, but XXXX and XXXX are reporting a different date of XX/XX/XXXX which is a 3 years and 9 days difference. Lastly, XXXX had another inaccurate information of the date last active that shows a date of XX/XX/XXXX, while XXXX reports:XXXX and XXXX reports:XXXX.

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

Subissue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Consumer Complaint: Around XX/XX/XXXX ... I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed XXXX items that were on my credit report. I reached out to the credit reporting agencies by phone in XX/XX/XXXX and certified mail shortly thereafter I started this process in the year XXXX only to receive reports with what appeared to be updated information. I then begin to do my due diligence to call XXXX XXXX a collection agency asking where did they get my information from the agent was very hostile and demanded money. I stated I have no idea who you are and I do not own a vehicle or purchased a vehicle with your agency I asked the agent was this a joke and the agent hung up. I then contacted an attorney only to inquire information the attorney said he could handle this with no problem but try to dispute first. I sent a letter of reinvestigation. I requested a credit report every Monday until this date the collection went away but now I called them back and started asking more questions. I was advised to contact Santander USA about the agency reporting the error in information this was no longer a concern for them. I was baffled and said well I will. I spoke to a gentleman early XX/XX/XXXX and he went round and round with me only to say send a request in writing. I asked him do you have a file or account for me I gave the account number from the report and my social he still stated please submit a written request as we do not see a file for you in our data base. This was during COVID 19 of XXXX and I did not get any information over the phone or by mail. I sent a certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX I yet have not heard from them another letter certified in XX/XX/XXXX four months later. I am literally going nuts bonkers arguing daily when I asked kindly for information and a letter of proof this burden is causing me a great deal of stress. I also saw a bankruptcy that is reporting I called the bankruptcy court fifteenth times and finally spoke to a Manger name XXXX who stated the bankruptcy court does not give out information to third parties agencies and Please come in person to request any information or contact the attorney I filed with I said lady there is NO ATTORNEY. I went down to the bankruptcy court on XX/XX/XXXX in person Deputy XXXX who stated you must go on pacers website or go in the big room to file a complaint or search out data base so I did and then I was directed back to the deputy where he gave me a letter of proof that CRA must report 100percent accurate and reveal the process and method to the consumer .... I followed all the process and contacted a attorney and went to a bankruptcy attorney to understand what is the procedure of process. I received valid information now the burden is on the federal agency to conduct, reinvestigate, and govern the CRA accordingly by the FCRA and stop this monopoly game. I reached out to CFPB in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX but the mail did not reached me til late XX/XX/XXXX, I made a call to explain the mail due to COVID the delay I have waited over 60 days to hear a comply from Santander USA XXXX this needs a speedy comply ASAP. The CRA are in business for profit and the agents are in a third world country with very disturbing language hard to understand so I am depending on a English spoken agent to resolve my concerns. The date is XX/XX/XXXX please assist with matter XXXX XXXX
