YOU BROKE THE LAW EXPERIAN Pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( 1 ). The banking system is dependent upon being fair and accurate. After taking a look at my consumer report, I realized that my report was inaccurate, and this inaccurate report is unfair to me because I was never notified when this inaccurate information was furnished, and I was never notified during your companys initial investigation that you were going to report this information pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( 1 ). 
This grave error has undermined my confidence in your companys procedure, and as a result of this I will no longer be extending credit, and if this information is not removed, I no longer want my information reported in your companys database. 
Pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( 2 ) Your company is a powerless elaborate mechanism. This mishap that your company has caused has ruined my reputation, and it has adversely affected my credit worthiness. 
Pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( 3 ) Your company assumed this role. You were not given expressed permission by me, the consumer, or a competent court of jurisdiction. So, not only did you fail in the initial investigation of this information, but you also assumed this role and assumed this information was valid, which is a violation of my consumer rights. 
Pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( 4 ) You did not insure that this information is accurate and you did not exercise your grave responsibility with fairness and impartiality. You took one side of the story and never consulted with me to find out if this transaction even took place. As a result of this my privacy was breached and this violated my rights to privacy. 
Pursuant to 15USC 1681A ( D ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) Congress makes it clear that a consumer report should NOT include transactions between the consumer and the person making the report. This alleged transaction that you are reporting and failed to investigate, whether or not it factually took place, can be categorized as a transaction that took place between the consumer and the person making the report. Which means it should not be included in my consumer report, and in fact is a violation of my consumer rights Pursuant to 15USC 1681A ( D ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( iii ) In your initial investigation I was never given the opportunity to deny this information being communicated on my consumer report. This is in fact a violation. 
Pursuant to 15USC 1681 ( A ) ( B ) Any authorization of a specific extension of credit of a credit card or similar device should be excluded from my consumer report. This alleged transaction that your company clearly did not investigate is categorized as a transaction that was issued from a credit card. Credit card as defined under 15USC 1602 ( i )

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

Ref : Experian Blatant roadblocks in truly investigating data published in credit reports It seems Experian makes it a habit to overlook the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ; which is a federal law that helps to ensure the accuracy, fairness and privacy of the information in consumer credit bureau files. 
I have been trying now for 3 months to correct the inaccuracies and erroneous data contained in my credit report to no avail. I have contacted Experian both online and through regular mail to ask for a real investigation of said errors. 
However, I keep getting the same answer that they have verified the data to be correct. I have a huge problem with that claim because when I submitted the same request to XXXX, they were NOT able to verify that information as accurate and deleted it all from my report. 
It is mind boggling that this agency keeps making the same claim, causing injury to my credit score and any attempt of being approved for credit due to perhaps laziness and a lack of respect for me and for the law. Also on other occasions, Experian simply would not allow me to dispute an item through their online system, claiming that said item had already been investigated. 
A proper investigation should not go through an E-Oscar completely automated system because there is no way it would be 100 % accurate and they know it but they keep delaying and putting up unnecessary hurdles in an effort to discourage a person from pursuing any corrections on their credit report. 
These practices are unfair and they need to stop, because as consumers we were promised fairness and accuracy in a report that we never signed up for. It was all forced on us and the least they can do is conform to the laws governing their very existence.

My account with XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment to be updated. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments 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. 


XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
