Experian do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. Any and all consent to Experian and CBNA whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked! 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless, the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option.

Complaint:
The account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX. I believe account was closed on XX/XX/XXXX. I got a derogatory mark on my credit report ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) stating that I had 120+ days late payments and that I owed a balance. I called the company immediately after noticing the derogatory marks when running my annual credit report. I had not received any prior notice for this debt. After speaking with the collection company I was told the letters were being sent to my old address. I paid the amount due in full and asked if I could have the item removed from my report. I would like that this derogatory mark is removed from all 3 credit bureaus. 

The balance is also incorrect and shows a high balance of {$1200.00} when the max on the card was {$1000.00}.

Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
I am sbmitting this CFPB Comlplaint to dispute the presence of certain items on my credit report, which I believe to be fraudulent. I have reviewed my updated credit file and found that the items in question continue to be reported, despite my previous dispute. I have previously disputed these items, but they continue to be reported on my credit file. In addition, I have not received any supporting documents from the credit bureaus indicating that these items belong to me. Therefore, I am requesting that these items be removed immediately in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 605b. I need the following items removed from my Credit File as soon as possible : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NV XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Owed : {$130.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} MO CHLD SPRT XXXX Balance Owed : {$3000.00} XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$210.00} XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$1400.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$1700.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. As we are all are aware, FCRA Section 605b states that any information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or can not be verified must be promptly removed from an individual 's credit file. I believe that the items in question fall under this category, as they are fraudulent and do not accurately reflect my credit history. I have taken all necessary steps to dispute these items with the relevant parties, including contacting the creditors and filing police reports. However, despite my efforts, these items continue to be reported on my credit file. I request that you investigate this matter further and remove these fraudulent items from my credit file as soon as possible.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I am very frustrated and annoyed with Experian for not being able to display accurate information on my credit report. A copy of a XX/XX/XXXX report is attached for viewing. 

The report shows " Serious Delinquency - Lack of Recent Installment Loan Information, Number of Accounts with Delinquency, too Few Accounts Currently as Paid. 

All of this information is incorrect, and I have filed with this XXXX on the same issue with Experian, but they have not fixed it, and as a result, it is creating serious damage to my credit history. 

Keep in mind, Experian is the only credit bureau that fails to get it right. XXXX and XXXX are reporting accurate information. None of the above incorrect information appears on my credit file- with XXXX and XXXX with the exception when it comes to Experian. 

Keep in mind I have NEVER been late on any payments and have a history of on-time payments for over fifteen years ; as a result had a score of XXXX, and because XXXX XXXX XXXX demanded I make additional monies- such as {$350.00} for two credit cards with them, left me with no choice but to file XXXX XXXX in XXXX and then afterward was still making payments to creditors - not fully understanding the process of XXXX XXXX. Today, I have 10 months left of a five-year plan- {$800.00} a month. 

Experian- get it right. I am so sick and tired of you not accurately reporting the status of my credit file. It's obvious there is something wrong when you ( Experian ) are the only reporting agency incorrectly reporting my credit.

Complaint:
The original balance on this account was {$8000.00} and this collection company has been charging me weekly interest and the current balance is now XXXX. The collection company is not allowed to charge interest unless specifically authorized in the original contract. I have reviewed my original lease and it does not state that a third party collection can charge interest on this account. This is in violation of the FCRA and every-time the balance goes up on this account due to interest my credit is negatively impacted. I have tried to dispute this with the collection agency and have had no success. This account needs to be removed from my credit report immediately.
