Dear ******* ******,
This is the response of Opportunity Financial, LLC ("OppFi") to the complaint you submitted to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) on April 1, 2025, referenced as ******** (the Complaint). In the complaint, you stated on March 20, 2017, you filed Bankruptcy, reference number ******* due to medical reasons and that your loan with OppFi, along with others was discharged. However, you assert you have been called and emailed to collect on this debt. For a resolution, you have requested for this unlawful attempt to collect this old debt to stop.
At OppFi, we take all complaints seriously as we strive to provide exceptional service at every touchpoint. In response to the Complaint, we thoroughly researched the matter, and according to our records, you received six (6) loans from OppFi. The final refinanced loan (the subject of this complaint) has an outstanding balance and has been written/charged off.
Our records indicate that you received your most recent loan on June 18, 2019, in the amount of $1,500.00, which required a total of eleven (11) semi-monthly payments in the amount of $210.86 with the first payment due on July 1, 2019. You made your first initial payment successfully, followed by two (2) consecutive payments that were unsuccessful and returned due to your request to revoke authorization at your banking facility. Your last successful payment was made on July 1, 2019, and due to nonpayment thereafter, OppFi began sending you emails regarding your account status. You never responded to the emails; therefore, your account was written/charged off on October 13, 2019, in the amount of $2,186.70.In your complaint, you requested cessation of phone calls and email communications regarding the debt, citing a bankruptcy discharge on March 20, 2017. However, our records indicate that all loans from OppFi were obtained after the bankruptcy discharge. The initial loan was dated September 12, 2018, followed by subsequent refinances on November 20, 2018, January 4, 2019, February 25, 2019, May 7, 2019, and June 18, 2019, each for $1,500.00. Therefore, as the bankruptcy was discharged prior to any loans with OppFi, the debt remains valid.
Regarding your request for all communication to cease, it has been processed, and you have been removed from all forms of correspondence regarding this loan. Please keep in mind that the valid debt has not been removed, as we are required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act to report accurate and complete information to the credit bureaus unless we know or have reasonable cause to believe the information is inaccurate; however, communication surrounding this debt has been stopped.
We hope this resolves all concerns, but if you have additional questions, please reach out to OppFi at ************** or me directly at **************************************************************************.

Our records indicate that you received your loan on December 24, 2024, in the amount of $2,000.00,which required a total of ten (10) monthly payments in the amount of $340.06 with the first payment due on January 1, 2025. You made three (3) successful payments, with the last payment being made on March 22, 2025. Your loan is active and in good standing.
In the Complaint, you state that you borrowed $2,000.00 in December, have paid $345.00 monthly for 3 months and still owe $1,700.00. You also state, No early payment policy, and the fees are too high. Please keep in mind that all the interest you are scheduled to pay has already been calculated and divided among the total number of payments you agreed to make. At the beginning of your loan, you will notice more of your payment is applied towards interest, however, as you continue to make your payments on time as scheduled, the balance will start to diminish. However, please keep in mind that missed payments, hardships and deferments will cause your loan to accrue additional interest and extend past the original maturity date. If an installment is missed, missed interest will be satisfied first on the next successful payment. Due to receiving your February 1, 2025, installment on February 22, 2025, this payment was solely applied towards interest only. Additionally, your March ******, installment was received on March 22, 2025, and due to the payment being received after the due date, only $105.49 was applied to the principal and $266.65 was applied towards interest. As of March 27, 2025, your current balance is $1,660.20. Please note, OppFi does not charge late fees,however, late payments may be reported to the credit bureaus if a past due payment is over 30 days late. Additionally, you may pay your loan early without any prepayment penalty.
Regarding your requested resolution for a reasonable payoff amount, if you would like to pay off your loan, please contact us directly via phone. Due to internal and external guidelines, we are limited on what actions can be performed via written communication.
We hope this resolves all concerns, but if you have additional questions, please reach out to OppFi at ************** or me directly at **************************************************************************.

Dear **** ****,
This is the response of Opportunity Financial, LLC ("OppFi") to the complaint you submitted to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) on March 18, 2025,referenced as ******** (the Complaint). In the Complaint, you state that you are writing to dispute the accuracy of information that is on your credit report according to the consumer laws and the fair credit reporting act section 15, USC 1681b, 15 USC *****, 18 USC 1028A. Additionally, you state that it is illegal to report information on your credit report without your permission.For a resolution, you have requested to remove the account from your credit report.
************ (*******)is a FDIC-insured, *******************. FinWise contracts with OppFi to offer small-dollar installment loans to consumers with less than perfect credit history. In the relationship, ******* is the lender and OppFi is the technology provider. ******* originates the loan and provides funds to the consumer. OppFi is contracted to provide the application platform facilitating loan origination for *******, as well as services the loan on behalf of ******* after the origination. As an FDIC-insured, *******************, ******** ********** regulators are the **** and Utah Department of Financial Institutions.
At OppFi, we take all complaints seriously as we strive to provide exceptional service at every touchpoint. In response to the Complaint, we thoroughly researched the matter,and according to our records, you received one (1) loan from ******* using the OppFi platform (the subject of this Complaint) which has been written off.
Our records indicate that you received your loan on February 17, 2022, in the amount of $2,000.00,which required a total of twenty (20) bi-weekly payments in the amount of $177.04 with the first payment due on March 4, 2022. You made two (2) successful payments, and three (3) payments were returned due to insufficient funds. Your last successful payment was made on March 18, 2022. Due to nonpayment thereafter, OppFi began sending you emails regarding your account status. You never responded to the account status emails, and therefore, OppFi began sending you settlement emails. You never responded to those emails, and your account was charged-off on June 30, 2022, in the amount of $2,762.36.
In the Complaint, you state that you are writing to dispute the accuracy of information that is on your credit report according to the consumer laws and the fair credit reporting act section 15, USC 1681b, 15 USC *****, 18 USC 1028A. OppFis credit reporting team received two (2) indirect disputes between March 18, 2025, and March *******, regarding the account not being yours, and a claim that the account is closed. *********************** credit reporting team responded to both disputes and found all the information to be accurate. Your account was previously reported late due to the first delinquency on May 1, 2022. Your credit was then updated to charged off as of June 30, 2022. OppFi has confirmed that the account is currently being reported as charged off, with a balance of $2,762.00.
Within the Complaint,you also state that it is illegal to report information on your credit report without your permission. Please note that you signed the Promissory Note and Disclosure Statement (the "Agreement") on February 16, 2022,and accepted $2,000.00 on February 17, 2022. By signing the Agreement, you acknowledged that it accurately represented the terms of the loan and that you received a complete copy for your records. The Agreement also includes a section 15 titled "Credit Reports," which states that "You understand and agree that we may obtain credit reports on you on an ongoing basis until this Note is paid in full. You also understand that we may report your performance under this Note to credit reporting agencies. Late payments,missed payments, or other defaults on your loan may be reflected in your credit report." By signing the Agreement, you acknowledge that you read,understood, and agreed to all the terms of the loan. In an effort to assist you, we have attached a copy of the Agreement to validate your debt.
Additionally, you acknowledged that you were aware of this loan when you contacted OppFi on February 16, 2022. During that call, you were required to secure the line by verifying a few pieces of personal identifying information. Without doing so,the representative would not have been able to discuss the account with you. On the call, you contacted OppFi after submitting an application online and you wanted to confirm when you would receive funds since the loan was approved. During that call, you never disclosed that you were unaware of this debt, nor did you request validation of the debt.
Regarding your requested resolution to remove the account from your credit report, we are unable to do so as OppFi is required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act to report accurate and complete information to credit bureaus unless we know or have reasonable cause to believe the information is inaccurate. In the present situation, we do not have such belief and have confirmed with all three (3) bureaus that the account is being reported accurately. Therefore, we are unable to forgive the debt or remove this from your credit report.
We hope this resolves all concerns, but if you have additional questions, please reach out to OppFi at ************** or me directly at **************************************************************************.
