Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (PA)

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

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

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: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (NJ)

Barclay savings account opened on XX/XX/2023 and external account ( I'm an owner ) added. On XX/XX/2023 at XXXX XXXX ET, received email that my savings account access was suspended due to my external needing to be verified ; I called Customer Service immediately and was advised that I need to send in my external bank statement to their fraud department email address. I called again on XX/XX/2023, and was advised that the fraud department received my documents and would be reactivating my account on XX/XX/2023 evening or on XX/XX/2023 at the latest. That did not happen as advised. I called on XX/XX/2023 at XXXX XXXX  ET and was advised that fraud department was closed and my account is still suspended. They advised me to call back again next week. This is ridiculous as the trial deposits already showed up on my external account ( that means the verification progressed ). 

I need to have my savings account re-activated as soon as possible, and Barclay is not moving forward appropriately and timely.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

This is a Direct Dispute for the Data furnisher of the information on my consumer report. On XX/XX/2021 I audited my Identity IQ report and found numerous discrepancies on it. Based on the information on my credit report I was never sent any fascimile advising of any of bills due or of the negative reporting. I challenge the ACCURACY and INTEGRITY of the information furnished on my credit report by the data furnisher XXXX XXXX. They have not provided proof of receipt of all bills and notifications sent. 
Pursuant to 12 CFR 1022.41 Accuracy means that information that a furnisher provides to a consumer reporting agency about an account or other relationship with the consumer correctly : ( 1 ) Reflects the terms of and liability for the account or other relationship ; ( 2 ) Reflects the consumer 's performance and other conduct with respect to the account or other relationship ; and ( 3 ) Identifies the appropriate consumer.

Integrity means that information that a furnisher provides to a consumer reporting agency about an account or other relationship with the consumer : ( 1 ) Is substantiated by the furnisher 's records at the time it is furnished ; ( 2 ) Is furnished in a form and manner that is designed to minimize the likelihood that the information may be incorrectly reflected in a consumer report ; and ( 3 ) Includes the information in the furnisher 's possession about the account. 

Because of the carelessness of XXXXXXXX XXXX I have been denied credit based on their furnished information which is materially misleading in evaluating my creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living. All of which have been defamed because of the corporations lack of attention to this matter.

Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

My account with ( XXXX XXXX  XXXX ) was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX 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 reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed.

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. 

( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them

On XX/XX/year> I submitted to CFPB, Identity theft complaints and documentation to Experian, XXXX and XXXX. FCRA states they have 4 days to remove those items and they have done absolutely nothing. These credit agencies are not abiding by the law and theyre 3rd party affiliates. I am going to be opting out of all XXXX systems indefinitely because I dont feel they care about consumers just about making money with the companies they violate laws for.
