Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (AZ)

I have had a XXXX XXXX card for the last 10 years and have been impacted by the Comenity outage. For at least a month from end of XXXX until about XXXX beginning, I was unable to log in or view any of my account information. My card would also periodically decline for no reason at random during the 1st week of outage. This outage was handled absolutely terribly by Comenity and parent Bread Financial and literally no info was given about what happened or timetables. ( There still hasn't been any information provided by the companies other than failed planned maintenance ) They also proceeded to cut and paste insulting, non-informative, unhelpful, canned responses all over their social media outlets in an unethical manner to inquiries from customers. At this same time, they disabled the telephone customer service with no explanation, and it would just disconnect you when calling in for weeks. These responses were seemingly on top of not having proper upgrade release testing and disaster recovery plans in place to prevent or resolve the outage. 

Fast forward to current time in XXXX. The XXXX reward points program that Comenity normally sends daily to XXXX XXXX has been COMPLETELY NON-FUNCTIONAL for almost 3 months. I am owed XXXX points that are stuck in limbo somewhere over this nearly 3 month timespan since the outage. I have received no info about anything except 1 email probably a month or more ago saying " We're working it. '' Credit consumers are part of an industry where credit companies will take any and every reporting opportunity to put black marks on your credit history for paying late one time, closing an account, inquiring about a new account, coughing too loudly, etc... These same credit companies should not be allowed to say or do anything they want without care or worry, have multi month outages, and fail on their obligations to provide services you've entered into agreement with them to provide, with no penalties or explanations.
