Complaint:
Dear Sir/Madam, I recently requested a credit report from Experian, and the information on the report really shocked me, it mixed up my report with another personal. We have totally different names, birth dates, and SSN numbers ( the other person had one, but I do not have one ).

I contacted Experian, they said there is NOWAY to do the adjustment since I do not have an SSN, while this is not my fault to mix up the information on my report and they mixed up it and let me have this BAD credit history with me for the whole life? It really affects my daily life when checking my credit history. 

I provided the screenshot of the credit report and my passport & bank statement as proof. 

Please help to connect with Experian and adjust my credit report. 

Thank you so much.

Complaint:
After many years with XXXX with a {$14000.00} line of credit that was paid off many times.The loan payment was dependent on the amount i borrowed, sometimes the payment was {$100.00} but as much as {$270.00}. I ran into problems in XX/XX/XXXX due to the economy. I struggled and pulled through. Although, XXXX did not and sold of my liabilities to Springleaf. I was paying Springleaf {$280.00} monthly. The principal never moved and was always at the same amount or increased. As things got better I paid on time more often. Although my loan never really was paid down. The amount i paid over time has totaled XXXX times since XX/XX/XXXX. I then paid off {$10000.00} and brought the line of credit down to a manageable {$4000.00}. I received my next bill without a change in payments. I called Springleaf and they did not have an answer although my contract states principal paydowm should be XXXX % of total. not some made up amount Springleaf wants. The line of credit should be {$130.00} per month with a {$4000.00} balance. This includes principal and interest. They made money on me and now that i am able to repay things Springleaf is trying to squeeze me. I spoke with a manager that had no idea what she was doing. I am easy going and she was polite. She still had no idea how to come up with the calculation. I hope you can help. Thank you

Penn Credit Corporation at phone number XXXX has called me 44 times from the period XXXX/XXXX/XXXX thru today 's date of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX.

When I answer the calls, a machine states " if you are this person, press 1 ; if you are not this person, press 2 ''. Nothing else. They do n't even mention the name of the person. I have not pressed either 1 or 2 as I am afraid it may be a spammer. I have researched this company and it is apparent there are many consumers and individuals also dealing with this company and harassing, repeated calls. I have no known outstanding debt, a great credit score, and have received no notices via mail or overnight delivery regarding outstanding bills from Penn Credit or any other company for that matter. On some days, I receive calls from Penn Credit Corp. two or three times. No messages are left. I am being harassed by this company and I want it to stop. Immediately.
