Product: Credit reporting
Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation
Sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

Complaint:
I have repeatedly disputed an account listed on my credit report as not being my account. After submitting numerous requests to XXXX for validation of the debt without response, I disputed the account with Experian. Experian supposedly investigated it and came back and said that proper validation was provided to them. I asked to see said documentation containing my signature since I would have had to sign a lease ( this is a collection account for an apartment complex ). I was provided a XXXX page accounting with the name " XXXX XXXX '' and the address of the apartment complex on it. I again asked for proof this was my account because I did not enter into any lease agreement with that apartment complex. XXXX will not provide it to me and Experian will not say anything other than the account was properly validated. HOW CAN IT BE VALIDATED IF YOU HAVE NO DOCUMENTATION CONTAINING MY SIGNATURE?? Experian will not remove this account even though it has not been able to properly validate it as being my debt. I have repeatedly asked to see the documentation proving it is my debt. Neither Experian nor XXXX has been able to provide any such document. THIS NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM MY CREDIT IMMEDIATELY!! Thank you.

Complaint:
I am unsure when this happened, the original debt, but I found out through XXXX XXXX recently not through anybody. 

I asked them to remove it as I got no notification from the hospital or IC SYSTEM INC. 

This was a debt that was suppose taken care of with Medicare as well. So this should never have been to collections, the hospital must have side stepped that.

Sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

Complaint:
I am a victim of Id theft and I sent two requests certified mail to equifax to do a security freeze. I mailed them twice the police report, utility bill, social security card and drivers license. I received confirmation of the certified mail. They did not respond to either of my requests for a security freeze. I called them XXXX/XXXX/15. I talked to 3 different people. The first one told me NO they wo n't do the freeze, I have to pay XXXX. The second one said I had a lock on my file, which I do n't recall placing and said I had to pay XXXX to lift the lock. Then they would place a freeze. I talked to a third person who again refused to do the security freeze and when I told them I was a vicitm and I sent my documents and provided the dates on the certified mail, they said they did n't have them. They said I had to send a third time and I could fax. This is very concerning as I sent highly sensitive personal information. I faxed it although I was very hesitant to do so. I sent these letters back on XXXX XXXX and they signed for it on XXXX XXXX ( 2015 ) and I sent it again XXXX XXXX. I 'm now concerned other fraudulent accounts may have been opened due to their lack of integrity and service issues. I want them to freeze my credit and send me updated report.

Complaint:
I have student loan debt. In 2017 I was to begin my first payments. I wasn't aware of this at the time. I did go to that school anymore and all the loan company had was my school email address. Also during this time I was pregnant. The months were XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. XX/XX/2017 is when I gave birth. I was out of work and having to take care of a new born. When I checked my credit a few months later it said I had missed 18 payments. I have 6 individual loans, so each one missed 3 months of payments. And on XXXX it just changed to 24 missed payments, just recently added XXXX as well. I understand it is my responsibility, I was planning on continuing my education and then got pregnant and also moved to another state. I've asked them if they can remove those missed payments multiple times with no as being the answer. I get no explanation at all.. Since 2017 I've had horrible credit because of these missed payments. No matter what I do I can't get rid of them and it doesn't matter if everything since has been paid on time. Never late on any credit cards or car payments. I am also going to school again to finish and get my degree in XXXX. I just would like to be able to do things with my life without this following me around forever. I can't even get a loan with my husband to buy a home or a car. What can I do?

Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Account status

Complaint:
I receive credit monitoring free of charge from my bank. In reviewing my credit score, Experian lists reasons that help and hurt your credit score. While reviewing the reasons, I noticed that two of the reasons that help my score are also factors that hurt my score ( please see enclosed document. ) Given there is conflicting information, how is one to improve their score? This is confusing and can lead the consumer to make decisions that can negatively affect their score, while intending to improve their score. 
This seems very deceptive and unethical. 
Please help.

Sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

Complaint:
I am filing this complaint because I think what Experian is doing to me is wrong, unethical and may be against the law. A letter was mailed to Experian on or around [ XXXX/XXXX/15 ]. 
I clearly stated my concerns to them regarding inaccurate, questionable or unverifiable information listed on my credit report. I also provided a clear copy of my ID, proof of my social security number and a proof of my current mailing address. 
On [ XXXX/XXXX/15 ] I received a notice from Experian stating the following : '' We received a suspicious request in the mail regarding your personal credit report and determined that it was not sent by you. Suspicious requests are reviewed by Experian security personnel who work regularly with law enforcement officials and regulatory agencies to identify fraudulent and deceptive correspondence purporting to originate from consumers. 
In an effort to safeguard your personal credit information from fraud, we will not be initiating any disputes based on the suspicious correspondence. 
Experian will apply this same policy to any future suspicious requests that we receive regarding your personal credit information, but we will not send additional notices to you of suspicious correspondence. 
If you believe that information in your personal credit report is inaccurate or incomplete, please visit our website at experian.com/validate dispute or call us at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to speak directly to an Experian consumer assistance representative. " However, an Experian confirmation number was not even provided on this notice. I can not imagine what could have possibly been " suspicious '' about my correspondence to Experian. I should not have to spend endless hours on phone calling the credit bureau back and forth attempting to resolve the issues on my credit report! I am filing this complaint because Experian will not respond to any letters that I am sending in. I 'm sure this could be a violation of my rights and Experian should not be deliberately disregarding my concerns
