Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

I am writing about the company XXXX, which seems to refuse to remove their information about charge-offs on my credit reports. The account was opened in XXXX. I am also complaining about XXXX and Experian. On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, I disputed XXXX card services and XXXX with all three credit bureaus. XXXX is the only one that actually deleted both from my credit report. I have contacted Experian and XXXX several times about this. Experian and XXXX still show the XXXX card services and the XXXX account. I have tried contacting XXXX several times at the number provided, which is XXXX. You can not get anyone if you do not have your account number. It asks you for your account number or if you want to put in your Social Security number. I put in my Social Security number. Then it asks for the last XXXX of the account number. I can not speak with anyone about this because I no longer have that information. 
Whenever I contact Experian or XXXX or dispute this with them, they tell me that it will remain on my credit report. Even though I have advised them there is no way for me to get in contact with them via the phone, this is still their response. I was told the first delinquency for XXXX was on XX/XX/XXXX. If bad credit is supposed to stay on your credit reports for XXXX years, this should have been removed on XX/XX/XXXX. When I called in to speak with advisors from Experian about these XXXX accounts, They stated that the removal date for the XXXX card services was on XX/XX/XXXX, and in XXXX. They stated that the removal date for XXXX would be XX/XX/XXXX. Today 's date is XX/XX/XXXX. Experian should have removed these already. When I spoke with advocates from XXXX, they told me that the XXXX card services removal date would be in XX/XX/XXXX, and the removal for XXXX would be in XX/XX/XXXX. I honestly do not trust that XXXX will remove those XXXX cards when XXXX of this year gets here. If all three credit bureaus are supposed to report the same information, then they should be deleted immediately because XXXX has already done so after I disputed these cards/ loans with them. Another thing I'm incredibly concerned about is the fact that Experian does not show that this account is closed, which it has been for years now. Something needs to be done about this fast because it affects my ability to apply for certain types of credit.

This is XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I have been patiently waiting on their response to the written requests I sent. However, any modes of response or coordination were not taken on their end. They have not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i within the time allowed by law and continued reporting as unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes.

I purchased a drone in 2020 on XXXX and ended up returning it. I have proof that I returned it and witness ( wife and business partner ). We returned this item valued at {$710.00}. 

Now, me thinking that everyone does the right thing. I never knew until three years later, I don't know if it was an accident they sent me secure messages regarding past disputes or what, but I found out I never got my money back. I opened a dispute many months ago and Paypal has not resolved it. I was working with XXXX XXXX from Paypal. I do not want to let them get away with this. {$710.00} is a lot to let someone get away with. Please help resolve this. 

The other problem is they are bad at record keeping. Ask them to show proof of anything over two years ago. They can't do it. I trusted my money with them and feel betrayed. Whatever their reply, we returned that item through XXXX.

I'm embarrassed I have to file a complaint I thought exercising my right as a consumer was protected and that laws had to be followed. I have been disputing these inaccurate and unverifiable accounts for months now with no response or mail in response to my request as a consumer. On XX/XX/2022, I sent disputes concerning accounts that are illegally reporting on my credit in violation. In accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 7 ) I, the consumer has the right to know the description of the method used to verify the information furnished on my consumer report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), the contractor is required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract for any and all accounts you post on a credit report.

USC 1681a ( e ) makes it clear that if a consumer reporting agency investigates something then it is known as an " Investigative Consumer Report '' but i do know for you to investigate things you need to conduct interviews with the following : - Interviews with neighbors - Friends - Associates of the consumer - or anyone who might have knowledge concerning such items of information I have yet to receive any proof from the person that is reporting on my consumer report. I was not sent any information, I've been getting papers from XXXX saying I'm working with a credit repair which is clearly not. They even refused to process my disputes as a consumer isn't that illegal? The cause of this has been stressful and impacting my financial life to purchase anything. On XX/XX/2022 I sent another letter to comply with my request which might get ignored like all the rest which is why I'm making this complaint now.

I noticed a multiple mistakes with the accounts and late payments on that. I just realized that the information across all three Credit Bureaus are wrong ( XXXX, XXXX, Equifax ).

I am familiar with 15 U.S. Code 1679 " I have a right to dispute inaccurate information in your credit report ''. Since all three bureaus giving me incorrect information, I want these accounts to updated as POSITIVE. Please investigate the following accounts and update them as POSITIVE.

Please verify the following accounts and changed them as POSITIVE 1 ) XXXX  XXXX Account number : XXXX - Please update as POSITIVE 2 ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number : XXXX - Please update as POSITIVE XXXX ) XXXX ( closed ) Account number : XXXX - Please Update as Positive I will also provide proofs and screenshots of my credit reports from all three bureaus ( XXXX, Equifax and XXXX ) and you can clearly see that information across three bureaus doesn't match.

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

Regions bank is NOT adhering to signed Promissory Note/Closing Documents signed XX/XX/XXXX. 

Disbursement date on simple interest XXXX was XX/XX/XXXX ( as noted on closing documents ) 1st payment was due XX/XX/XXXX covering XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX period from closing From first billing, interest was calculated on an erroneous billing period of XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( noted on billing statements ). 
This incorrect billing period set up all future billings to cover an incorrect billing period of the XXXX to the XXXX on a monthly basis despite payments set up to be due the first of each month as in closing documents. The billing period should have reflected the XXXX XXXX or XXXX on a monthly basis ; based on disbursement/closing documents. 
This discrepancy in the billing period being used by Regions ( and not supported by closing loan documents ) set up inaccuracies in additional interest calculations on my monthly payments made and due by the first of each month which has now gone on for 4 years without being corrected Additionally, as per Promissory Note/Closing Documents ( and further supported via emails by Regions VP/branch manager/closer on loan ) additional Principal Only payments are allowed without penalty to be applied to outstanding principal balance. As noted on Promissory Note Early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in making fewer payments However, each month from XX/XX/XXXX to present, a separate check marked Principal Only or Extra Principal Payment Only in the amount of {$100.00} was sent in same mailing as regular mortgage payment. However, despite Regions receiving by the XXXX of each month ( due date according to closing documents ), the entire extra principal payment {$100.00} was not applied to the principal balance, but rather interest was taken out ; NOT adhering to signed closing documents. 
Despite numerous attempts to have the loan examined and fixed since first noticed in XXXX of XXXX, Regions continues to let this error go on ; effecting me financially and emotionally. They state my Principal Only payments have to pay interest first owed for the month based on the erroneous and incorrect billing period as noted above. 

This loan MUST BE FIXED with all incorrect additional interest taken by Regions ( both out of regular monthly payments and out of extra principal payments since the start of the loan ), credited back to loan to lower principal balance. 

Based on Regions attitude, one can only wonder if this type of error is going on with hundreds, if not thousands of others, who unknowingly are being negatively impacted financially while Regions is making millions off of them. Maybe Regions need to be investigated or have a class action lawsuit to make them correct their errors.
