Consumer complaint received 2022-06-07
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
Experian is in violation of the FCRA. I sent Experian ( via certified mail ) multiple dispute requests dated XX/XX/22, XX/XX/22, and XX/XX/22. Each of those times Experian said the results were verified or they modified the file as a result of the investigation. After 3 attempts of disputing and each time coming back verified, I exercised my rights under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). I requested a method of verification along with a re-investigation. I stated that any automated response or e-Oscar verification was unacceptable. I listed the accounts in question and sent that request via certified mail on XX/XX/22. FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) provides A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. Experian did not comply with my request for method of verification. On XX/XX/22 I sent Experian another letter via certified mail asking them to delete the accounts in question based on their lack of compliance with the method of verification. I asked them to do so within 15 days of receiving that letter. Experian received that letter on XX/XX/22. As of XX/XX/22 those items remain.

Complaint:
I recently submitted a complaint with you about a bankruptcy and how it was being wrongfully reported by the credit bureaus. In response, you sent a letter to me dated XX/XX/22 saying that the information I submitted didn't seem to be me?? I'm confused as to what that means? I happen to have been learning about my rights as a consumer and know about the FCRA and certain laws in it that pertain to my bankruptcy being reported without a proper investigation having been done by any of the 3 bureaus. So I'd like to submit another complaint to follow up about the issue, all 3 bureaus claim to have verified the account as accurate, but clearly have not done or been able to provide a method of verification. The court NEVER reported it to them, so who did they verify it with as having accurate information then?? If you could please treat this new complaint as a serious matter, I and my family would greatly appreciate it as we are trying to put the pieces back together from the last few years. Under 15USC 1681 ( 5 ) ( A ) States If any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer. An item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer agency shall - ( i ) promptly delete that item of the information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the result of the reinvestigation; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. The bureaus have also violated my rights under 15USC 1681 602 A and 15 USC 1681 604A Sec 2 that state I have the right to privacy and that an account can not be reported without my consent or instructions. Thank you for your help, we greatly appreciate it.

Complaint:
Weeks ago I opened an account with XXXX and I allowed my boyfriend to have access to my account simply because he wanted to transfer money to help my family. No sooner than a day after the funds are transferred XXXX decided to block me from having any access at all. I called and after waiting an hour and several minutes I finally got through to someone and I proceeded to verify my identity and even explain why I have access to my boyfriend but the lady hung up on me after telling me that I will receive an email to regain access to my account. So after waiting those several weeks today I decided to call and ask questions but no..XXXX  hangs up on anyone who wants to ask those hard questions about their own funds XXXX continues to hold. XXXX seems to think Im doing something evil because its been weeks without hearing from anyone. They dont care for people who are trying to feed their family and its starting to get very serious with these people. Ive taken screenshots and written things down in case they wanted to lie. Theres several reviews of people telling others to skip over XXXX because they are illegally holding peoples money and not cooperating with costumers.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX has reported late payments and late payments should not be reported. 
I received a copy of my credit report and I have found that in accordance to the FCRA you violated my rights under 15 USC 1681 SECTION 602 WHICH STATES THAT I HAVE THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY, FURTHERMORE 15 USC 1681 SECTION 604a SECTION 2 ALSO STATES A CONSUMER REPORTING AGENCY CAN NOT FURNISH AN ACCOUNT WITHOUTOUT MY WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS. 

Pursuant to 15 USC 1666b A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

I NEVER gave You, OR the above listed creditors any written instruction to furnish any information on my consumer report which is a violation of 15 USC 1681b. Credit Reporting Agency has caused severe stress and anxiety due to the abusive and unfair practices. 

You should be ashamed of yourself for ASSUMING this role and position to constantly commit fraud and cause harm to consumers! These accounts are listed with late or missed payments and that is incorrect. According to the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I demand that these items be investigated and removed. 

DUE TO THESE VIOLATIONS OF MY CONSUMER RIGHTS, I AM DEMANDING THAT YOU UPDATE THE ABOVE LISTED LATE PAYMENTS AS OK OR PAID AS AGREED Best Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
I submitted paperwork for the Exchange Credit Card program, on the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX the fraud supervisor XXXX called me to gather more information. I explained to her I did not have the card nor even used the email address which was on file with the company. She was supposed to change the email, but later on, I found out they sent the final results of their investigations to the old email which I do not even use. Luckily I called them and they sent them over again. Their findings were that a temporary card was present at the time, if I had used this card I would not have needed a temporary card as it was mine. Second current charges reflect prior spending pattern and location. Of course, the same pattern and location were used as whoever had my card using the exact same location. Then apparently they also used it at XXXX XXXX during these times the card was being used I was over XXXX miles away from where they were used. I explained this to XXXX as well and she apparently didn't even take any of this into consideration. Also, in the attached receipts they sent to me there are two completely different signatures, even different from the signature which I provided to them. So in less than XXXX hours they had made a decision and did not even investigate anything more from the information I have provided them. Nor even compared the signatures with the signatures I provided them as there is a big discrepancy and noticeably different in all three, even the two which were provided on my card were different from each other.
