      I have reached out to SST/*******. They have disregard my complaint, have failed to respond and have failed to validate the alleged claim pursuant Fair Credit Reporting Act 15USC §1681, you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Also, they are reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit information. I demand these late payments be removed from my credit report immediately. At no time I have I given consent for my information to be published and it is a violation against my privacy, which is aggravated identity theft. You also do not have any permissible purpose to furnish my personal information to any third party. Your company is in clear violation of the law. Under 15 USC §1681b - permissible purpose of consumer reports, THE LAW CLEARLY STATES:
      a. IN GENERAL
      Subject to subsection (c) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other:
      (2) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.
      Did I give you written instructions to furnish this account on my credit report?
      Furthermore, the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC §1681a(2)(a)(i) Exclusions from a consumer credit report clearly states:
      (2) EXCLUSIONS.—Except as provided in paragraph (3), the term “consumer report” does not include—
      A. Subject to section 1681s-3 of this title, any—
      (i) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report;
      Delete the above late payments from my consumer report, this agency is in violation of 15 USC §1681.
      Failure to respond satisfactorily with deletion of the above referenced account, and send out a free copy of my report after the changes have been made will result in legal actions being taken against your company, for which I will also be seeking $ 1,000 per violation for:
      Defamation of Character (per se)
      Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud
      Fair Debt Collections Practices Act 15 USC §1692g violations
      Fair Credit Reporting Act 15USC §1681 violations for willful noncompliance - §616. Civil liability for willful noncompliance [15 U.S.C. §1681n]

      Business Response

      Date: 03/31/2023

      We appreciate the opportunity to respond to the above-referenced complaint your office brought to our
      attention. Systems and Services Technologies, Inc. (“SST”) is a loan servicing and payment
      processing company that is committed to resolving customer service issues in a cooperative and
      expeditious manner.
      We’ve completed our initial review of the account in question and found the following. On June 20,
      2015 signed a Closed-End Note (“the Contract”) financing $6,770.83 for a signature loan with the
      original creditor ******* Services, a Division of ********** ****. According to the Contract, Mr.
      ******** agreed to make 36 monthly payments of $288.84, beginning on August 1, 2015. In 2019,
      ******* ******** ceased operations and transferred its accounts receivable, including that of Mr.
      ********, to ******* Asset Trust, who, on August 10, 2019, placed the Account with SST as the
      servicer.
      Our records show. SST sent the Notice of Transfer or “Welcome Letter”, to Mr. ******** on August
      10, 2019, to the mailing address on file. Please note that the Contract set the interest rate of the
      signature loan at 29.213%. No changes have been made to the Contract or the interest rate. Per Mr.
      ********’s Contract, if any payment is more than five (5) days late, he will pay a late fee of 10% of the
      amount due or $25.00, whichever is lower. The account is closed.
      The Account reflects that payments were late throughout the life of the loan. The Account was due for
      the October 1, 2020 payment but was not made until November 13, 2020. That payment was returned
      on November 18, 2020 and not made again until December 1, 2020. The Account should have been
      paid in full, however, with the outstanding late fees still due, the Account continued to show as 60 days
      past due. As a courtesy, SST waived $292.34 in late fees as well as three late marks from the credit
      bureaus.
      SST pulled glances on all three bureaus, ******** ******** and ***** ***** and found the
      SST/******* ********* is no longer reporting to Mr. ********’s credit report
      If Mr. ******** has any further questions or concerns, he may contact SST Customer Service directly

      I took a loan with **** ** for their Borrow and Grow Plan. I was notified that the loan was being move to SST. I paid off the loan on 12/28/22. I called and inquire$1672 that was due to me from the savings account. I was told it would be 30 days from when it was paid off that I would receive a check. I called 2/8/23 as I had not received the check. I was told that they were not sending checks but would send it ACH. I provided my banking information. I'm not sure why I needed to do that because they already have my banking information as they were taking the bi-weekly payments out of my account. I called again on 2/28/23 as I still haven't received the money. They claim the they had the wrong banking information. Again not sure how. I gave them the information again and they said I'd see it in 1-2 days. I of course did not receive the fund so I called again on 3/3/23. Still not fund, refund is processing. Should receive fund 3/7/23. Still no funds. I called today (3/8) and said it is processing and call back Friday. This has been going on for almost 3 months and is ridiculous. Took the loan in good faith and paid it in good faith. I work with banks and I know it does not take this long for payments to be processed.

      I opened a borrow and grow plan with ****** on 11/11/2021. I received $750 up front and $2,250 was deposited into a savings account to be sent to me upon paying off my balance. I was notified that my plan was transferred to SST in December of 2022. I paid off my balance on 2/27/2023 and called customer service to have them release my savings and provided all my **** info for it to be deposited. The timeline of when i would receive it changed drastically depending on which agent you talked to. I was told ranges from 10-22 days. I then called into customer service on 3/4/2023 to make sure autopay was disabled on my debit card so i would no longer be charged. The agent told me I was all set. On 3/7/2033 I was charged an autopay charge for $100 after the agent told me she disabled autopay and that I would no longer be charged. I called into SST on 3/7/2023 to request that I be refunded the $100.00 on 3/7/2023 and they said they put a stop payment on it so it would not post to my **** account. The charge has posted to my account. I am requesting the $100 refund, the disabled autopay to occur, and the refund of my savings account as my balance has been paid in full. Also, it’s important to note that my online portal account still shows due dates which it should not since I have paid in full. I have asked a couple agents a status on my savings process and they are never able to provide anything other than “in progress.” As a customer, I don’t believe that is fair. I also don’t believe it is fair I was charged $100 which was not in the contract since the balance was paid in full.

      I originally took out my loan through ******* The loan was sold to SST without my permission, and I quickly paid off the loan so as to not have to deal with this company given the horrendous reviews. My final payment on the loan was made on 2/15/22, and that final payment cleared my bank on 2/21/22. As of today 3/3/23, I have not received the over $2,200 that is due to me from my savings account. I called SST to discuss this (before the payment had cleared the bank) and was told it would be received within 14 days after the payment cleared. I gave them my banking information over the phone which felt very insecure but they said the funds would be wired that way. The customer service rep was very difficult to understand and not very friendly. I've sent three different emails to the company requesting the status of the deposit and I have not received any response from the company. This is a terrible way to do business.

      I had a loan with ******* and they sold it to sst in 2019 i had a few payments left and paid it off in full now they claim that i owe them and it was in collections which is false. I have financial records proving i paid them off. However now they claim i owe them and that it was in collections and my credit score dropped. I want them to do actual research and read the logs instead of saying oh we have no record of you having an account. The phone numbers are all wrong and fake which is also proof this is a scam company and not a legit business because business thrives on business. Call home depot for a shovel they'll answer call the hospital to check on a patient theyll answer. call any of these fake numbers and you learn they're all fake. IM guessing they bought the debt thinking i would default when i only had a few payments left and then done allegedly. now they want to claim it went to collections which again is a complete lie.

      We’ve completed our initial review of the account in question and found the following:
      On September 7, 2016, ******* * ****** signed a Closed-End Note financing $3,126.77 for a
      Signature Loan with ******* ********, a Division of ********** ****. According to the Contract,
      Mr. ****** agreed to make 36 monthly payments of $136.40 beginning on October 1, 2016. In 2019,
      ******* ******** ceased operations and transferred its accounts receivable, including that of Mr.
      ******, to ******* Asset Trust, who, on August 10, 2019, placed the Account with SST as the
      servicer.
      Our records show Mr. ****** paid the Account in full on August 29, 2019, for the amount of $136.40.
      SST marked the account closed paid on September 10, 2019 and sent Mr. ****** a paid in full letter.
      On March 7, 2023, SST sent a manual update to ******* and ******** via E-Oscar to ensure

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because:  This company does not provide the full truth. It stated i was late in oct 2020 which is a well after a year it was closed. If someone there changed it to say i owed when i didnt my score dropped 4 points. Also the contact number they provide is fake and does not work. This is a scam company and was trying to come after me for a missed payment dated a year after it was paid in full. I want a real phone number where I can call and speak to a living person not a random google number they get for a week. This scam company caused my score to go down and while its now fixed they didnt explain why someone on their end made it seem like it was in collections which it never was. Also if no resolution is made on finding valid contact info i will seek legal advice in order to persue legal action for the drop in my score

      I called and paid the loan off in FULL on 2/14/23, they took the funds from my account. This is a loan where they put $2,000 in a savings account for me, that is supposed to be released to be within 10 days of me paying the load in full (at the time of the loan, I only received half of the loan, the other half went into the savings account). On 2/17/23 I checked my account, they pulled an additional payment. I called back. They next customer service rep I spoke with said the first rep had not cancelled by auto payments. He did this, then had me talk to a manager who refunded my payment they took. I got a bill this week for my account saying I owed that payment plus interest. I called, spoke to another rep. They never applied the overpayment they took on the 17th, but did take the refund out of my final payment on the 14th - showing that I never actually paid it off. In fact they showed that they refunded me on 2/3/23 in my transaction history online. I spent over an hour on the phone today 2/27/23 with several support people, never a manager and no one can figure out where my 2/17/23 payment went. I sent them a copy of my bank records, showing the payment was removed from my account. They now say it could take up to a week to sort it out, or get a call back. They will not release my $2,000 until they figure it out either. I have proof I paid it in full, and that they took the extra money. I sent it to them twice now (that is how they refunded it). They are holding more of my money. I had to pay the $2000 to get the $2000 back, since it was part of the loan agreement. I want them to hold up there end of the agreement of the loan contract, it should not take this long to fullfill it.

      Complaint: 19503823

      I am rejecting this response because:  the amount they refunded is a payment they took on 2/17/23 after the account was paid in full. They never posted that payment to my account. They refunded my payment on 2/3/23 (which they also took from my account before the account was paid I. Full). I have attempted to call them several times. They say my account is still pending closure as they are waiting on funds from my bank for the final payment I made on 3/2/23 for 81.11 (the final payment they refunded me initially that is an overpayment), I spoke with them today and they are still waiting - while my bank sent these funds on 3/3/23  I was told then when I called on 3/2/23 that they would escalate the funds (ona a recorded call) that it would take 7 days  today 3/8/23 when I called it still shows pending the funds, and once they get the funds will take 22 days to get my funds sent to me  from my savings  the first guy I talked to who hung up on me said the 81.11 was interest and said I still owed it, and it had nothing to do with my refund they issued. The second person assured me a manager would call me back by 3pm today  - no phone call at all- so calling gets me no where  they don’t answer me and have a different reason for the reason I had to pay and when I will get my funds. I also see others have had the same issues with this company . I have also emailed them all the documents, the reps tell me they can’t see the emails only managers can, and yet I can never speak to a manager. Regards,

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because: I have called several times, i have sent proof of all payments paid (and the refund) and the screen shots of the reversals they made incorrectly) and the payment I made to once again clear the account up. I received one call back, that my phone marked as out of country and there for I did not pick up (why would I ask this is supposed to be a company from the USA). I have gotten a different reason for my overpayment every time I call, from it being Interest that still owed to, my payment being NSF, to they never pulled a payment to there is confusion from the accounts being sold from ******, and my favorite as this is a debt collection. This was a loan that I voluntarily took out, not a debt collection. I have been hung up almost every time I call. It is not 3/20/23 and as of Friday 3/17/23 my account per the rep I spoke too showed a zero balance, but was still showing as opened with payments due and she didn’t know why. She emailed. Supervisor and put a “trace” on my savings account and told me if I didn’t hear anything back by the 27th of March to call back. That at this time there was nothing she could do. I have attached every payment I made to ******, and every payment I made to sst in this rejection. Including all refunds as you can see I have overpaid. I have paid a total $4792.53, and if you follow all the payments and refunds there is 1 extra payment. At this point the $80 is a small point, the biggest point is my account has been yet to be marked closed and they are still holding my savings account, one rep even claimed that my bank has yet to send the funds, I have verified with my bank those funds were sent when they left my bank account. They don’t hold the funds and not send them to the other financial institution, and had they been returned for some reason from the other bank I would have been notified and the funds would have been returned to my account. Hard to believe 2 weeks later and my account is still not closed.

      I like many of the other recent complaints on this page took a loan with another company who then sold my loan to SST. I paid off my loan almost a month ago and still have not received my $651 that is owed. I’ve called multiple times to find out where my money is and I was told last week “sometime this week.” It’s past their window of 15-20 days during which I should have received my money. The only acceptable solution is to get my money immediately.

      I am rejecting this response because:  This company needs to make this right. I was told that I would receive my money during a particular time frame and that did not happen. I called and repeatedly asked for a manager only to be denied and basically laughed at. This company is terrible and needs to be held accountable.
