Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

In XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered multiple unauthorized inquiries and inaccurate collection accounts on my credit report. These entries were made without my knowledge or consent, and they violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2.

# # # Unauthorized Inquiries : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ), a consumer reporting agency may only furnish a consumer report with the explicit authorization of the consumer. The following inquiries were made without my authorization : Unauthorized Inquiries : XXXX. XXXX  Date of XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX These inquiries were unauthorized and are negatively affecting my credit score. I have contacted the companies responsible, and they have no record of any authorization from me. This violates the FCRA, and I am requesting immediate removal of these inquiries from my credit report. 
# # # Inaccurate Collection Accounts : In addition to unauthorized inquiries, there are several collection accounts on my credit report that are inaccurately reported. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ), furnishers of information are required to ensure the accuracy of the information provided. However, these collection accounts have been paid in full or are inaccurately reported and are damaging to my credit : Fraudulent Accounts in Collection : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Despite providing all the necessary documentation and complying with the required procedures, the credit reporting agencies have failed to remove the fraudulent items within the legal time frame. These errors have negatively impacted my credit score and have created undue hardship for me.

I am seeking your assistance to ensure that these fraudulent items are permanently removed from my credit report and that the credit reporting agencies comply with the obligations set forth by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

This description provides the CFPB with the details they need to address your dispute. Make sure to adjust the placeholder fields like dates and amounts to match your specific situation. Let me know if you need further modifications!

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (WV)

My account with EXPERIAN XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and 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. 


EXPERIAN XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( 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! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: Ditech Financial LLC (MS)

I am with a mortgage company called greentree services. This company forces insurance on the buyer. If u do n't have house insurance, they will take it from your regular mortgage payment and then call you and tell you that you was short on your mortgage. They calls your job after hours forcing you to make payments and the 15 day grace period does n't even be over. The representative s are very rude and threatened foreclosure after being late a week. I have a fixed rate mortgage and they have went up on my house note at least XXXX bucks monthly. This company also forces escrow on the buyer even when you tell them you will rather pay your land taxes at the courthouse. If you send them a extra payment by just sending them a house payment earlier, they will apply it to the principal instead of the mortgage. So very tired of all this. XXXX rep even told me, if you ca n't afford the house, sell it but pay us when you do. I need help, fast.

I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

Experian has been falsely sharing my personal information and preventing a screening company from accessing my credit report. They have reported to a third party that I disputed an inquiry as fraud, yet this inquiry does not exist. Shortly after speaking with Experian 's fraud department, I received an email stating I disputed this non-existent inquiry, which they then deleted without my authorization. I did not give Experian permission to take these actions on my behalf. This improper handling and tampering with my information have not only caused significant delays but have also obstructed my right to secure appropriate housing. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is illegal for credit reporting agencies to share inaccurate or misleading information and to deny consumers access to fair and accurate credit reporting. What happened?

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to you in regards to the reinsertion of a previously deleted collection account by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX  ) on my credit report with TransUnion. As of the latest information available, this XXXX account has been successfully removed by both XXXX and XXXX, and it is imperative that my credit report remains accurate and consistent across all three major credit bureaus. 

The reinsertion of this collection account by TransUnion is in violation of fair credit reporting practices and regulations, and as a consumer, I have the right to ensure that the information on my credit report is factual and up-to-date. The discrepancies between the credit reports from TransUnion and the other two major credit bureaus are causing undue harm to my credit standing and financial reputation. 

I request that TransUnion takes immediate action to delete the reinserted collection account from my credit report, as it has already been confirmed as inaccurate and has been removed by the other credit reporting agencies. 

I am prepared to take further steps to resolve this matter if necessary by involving relevant regulatory authorities. Compliance with federal laws governing fair credit reporting is essential to maintaining the trust and accuracy of credit reporting practices. 

To conclude, this is a formal cease and desist letter for Transunion regarding this collection account. Showing this XXXX account on my credit report is damaging and grounds for a lawsuit as a credit report is a medium of communication ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ).

Company: Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. (FL)

The account for the vehicle purchased is with Consumer Portfolio Services. 

The balance allegedly owed is {$12000.00}. 

I do not recall where or who the original loan agent is. 

When I purchased the vehicle, it had several mechanical issues. So many so, that I was not able to repair them. 

I contacted the dealership to advise they sold me a car that I can not use nor fix. Needless to say I did get a very professional response. The car was voluntarily returned a few days later by way of tow truck, which they provided. 

I was not even offered another vehicle. I lost my down payment and the car they sold me and new it was damaged. 

I asked if they would be any monies owed, and because they received there vehicle back, nothing was going to billed to me. 

Did I receive paperwork, no. Did I receive paperwork that the vehicle was returned, no. 

I will not pay for a vehicle that was inoperable and that was returned back, which they probably fixed and resold. 

I am asking, please get this deb off my report as it is there unfairly. 

Had I done damage to the car or caused anything to where it became inoperable, I would own up to my responsibility. As should the dealership for selling a lemon. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX
