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

In accordance with 605B of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am submitting this complaint regarding fraudulent accounts that were opened in my name without my knowledge or consent. These accounts are the result of identity theft, and I have already filed a dispute with the relevant credit reporting agencies. However, they have failed to act in accordance with 605B. 

As required by law, I am providing the necessary documentation, including my FTC Identity Theft Report, proof of identity, and a signed statement confirming the accounts were not authorized by me. Under 605B, the credit reporting agencies must block and remove this information within **four business days**. 

Fraudulent Accounts Identified : 1 ) XXXX XXXX Revolving account with account # XXXX opened on XX/XX/XXXX and a balance of {$6900.00}. 
2 ) XXXX Installment account with account # XXXX opened on XX/XX/XXXX and a balance of {$24000.00} 3 ) XXXX Installment account with account # XXXX opened on XX/XX/XXXX and a balance of {$3700.00} 4 ) XXXX XXXX Revolving account with account # XXXX opened on XX/XX/XXXX and a balance of {$2900.00}. 

I request immediate action in blocking and removing these fraudulent accounts. Please ensure the credit bureaus comply with the FCRA as these accounts are causing significant damage to my financial standing.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NJ)

" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NC)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX is appearing on XXXX, XXXX and equifax credit reports.The problem is not that I quit paying in mid XX/XX/XXXX, the problem is the extenuating circumstance regarding the responsible party, my ex-husband.My husband the typical breadwinner abandoned me with XXXX small children in late XX/XX/XXXX.I was a stay at home mom with only a part time job.Everything financial was dependent on my husbands income ... he just left us.I tried to make payments as long as I could but I couldn't feed the kids and keep a roof over our heads. 
I got divorced for non support and abandonment.Even though my husband had access to the credit the card was in my name.I can't go after him for the money even though the debt was his responsibility to me.This debt is now 4 and half years old and I'm trying to make a fresh start, I am trapped like a co-signer.Could this account be deleted because the responsible party is my ex-husband.I am becoming stable now and would hope to be able to recover to do business with XXXX in the future .

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TN)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted an identity theft complaint to Experian identifying an account that appeared that did not belong to me. This was submitted under Rule 605B and I noted the 4 business day requirement. I also spoke to the company who reported the account and they confirmed it was identity theft and they immediately submitted a request through e-Oscar to remove the account from my credit file with confirmation number XXXX. To date, Experian has not removed the account despite my identity theft report with all supporting documents AND the reporting company requesting that it be removed as well, nor have they sent me anything stating they would not block the information. This is severely impacting my credit rating and it is in direct violation of the FCRA and Rule 605B. I have spoken to Experian twice about this, and they say they have no way to confirm the confirmation number from the company and are generally rude about it. They are treating this issue as a regular dispute when it is not at all, and was clearly outlined in the letter I sent to them. 
I also sent them an initial letter on XX/XX/XXXX with a list of information and inquiries that were not from me and the result of identity theft. They did not do anything with the letter despite it being received on XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX when I called to inquire why they had not processed it. The agent I spoke to ( XXXX ) said she did not have an explanation because I submitted everything that was required, and she was able to remove several of the inquiries while on the phone with her. The XXXX XXXX account appeared on XX/XX/XXXX, but XXXX advised that I needed to resubmit the documents and a new FTC report on that account to experian.com/uploads. I did this while on the phone with her. 
For XXXX and XXXX, they also have the information about the fraudulent accounts and the identity theft report along with all supporting documentation. XXXX has removed inquiries but not the accounts. XXXX has done nothing at all. The lack of action or notification is also a direct violation of the FCRA and the Rule 605B regulation.

Issue: Getting a loan or lease — Credit denial
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MD)

On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for an auto loan from XXXX to purchase a XXXX vehicle. The credit was denied due to a credit freeze on my Experian Credit Account. I had placed the freeze in XXXX after becoming a victim of identity theft. On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I tried to remove the credit by both phone and online. I was instructed each time to write a letter to remove the freeze. I wrote the letter and received confirmation from Experian that the Credit Freeze was lifted on XX/XX/XXXX. I left my fraud alert in place on my Experian account. On XX/XX/XXXX I reapplied for my auto loan and again was denied credit due to a freeze on my Experian account. I contacted Experian and confirmed the credit freeze was removed. I then called XXXX and shared that the credit freeze was not in place that there is a fraud alert and they should receive a phone number to reach me for confirmation of the loan application. XXXX was not able to help. I contacted Experian again and they suggested that XXXX contact Experian and that I wait a few days and reapply. I reapplied on XX/XX/XXXX with the same results. I repeated this process again XX/XX/XXXX and was again denied credit due to a credit freeze on my Experian account. I escalated the issue to an executive account resolution officer ( XXXX ) at XXXX. XXXX called Experian and connected me on a conference call with the Experian representative ( XXXX  ). XXXX verified there is no credit freeze and could not explain why XXXX was not receiving a credit report with fraud alert procedures. XXXX recommended I remove the fraud alert so XXXX could obtain a credit report. This essentially leaves my credit unprotected unless I purchase a credit protection plan form the very company that is providing the information. I was denied the loan and am forced to finance through another bank that does not solely rely on Experian. I asked XXXX at Experian for a supervisor and she refused me stating they would provide the same information as she did.

Issue: Can't repay my loan — Can't decrease my monthly payments
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (FL)

I have private loans as a cosigner with Navient. I am retired and they make me pay {$400.00} a month barely able to make it and now they want to raise my payment by {$200.00}. I have tried to come to a deal with them but every time I send papers and call them with my proof I have, they tell me they never received my papers by fax. I get multiple letters threatening me if I do n't pay and multiple phone calls by them. I have tried talking to them over and over and nothing helps. As for my daughter they did the same to her always saying they never got the papers we sent to try and get into the income based repayment program even telling us we failed to get in because we did not submit the paperwork on time even though we had fax papers proving we did. This was after multiple times they only offered my daughter the ability of forbearance and not income based which we later found out about. They also threatened me for XXXX of my loans if I did not pay they would put a lien on my house and they told me to pay using certain credit cards I had. Info I never gave them access to. They forced me to pay {$5000.00} and I would be fine. Then I get a call I have to pay {$300.00} for another loan even though I was told once I paid the XXXX I would be ok only to find out that it only applied to that loan. On top of that as we went through this whole ordeal the loan doubled and tripled from its original amount and its ridiculous you ca n't find someone to work with and the deal for XXXX is only for 15 months then for my XXXX other loans I got a letter stating that I agreed to a three pay forbearance option which I never agreed to that part and never even heard of a three pay forbearance program before till I got a letter stating the deal for the XXXX that I had to constantly call in order to receive the letter as proof I did pay the XXXX. It is not justified that the loans are increasing based on navient not cooperating with me and my daughter. The loans now cost more then my house. I want a resolution in which my loan balance is what it should be and not triple what it is now when I have done everything to work with them.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (GA)

XXXX continues to report incorrect credit information negatively impacting my ability to obtain credit, rent an apartment, or buy a home. XXXX indicates they rely upon XXXX XXXX and XXXX  Credit reports to verify the information they are reporting. XXXX XXXX previously responded, in writing, that the following accounts are not on my XXXX XXXX Account and not being reported. XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX. I previously attached ( 5 ) 1099-C provided by XXXX and XXXX ( Cancellation of Debt ). Both XXXX and XXXX admitted knowledge of my insolvency at the time of their wrongfull claim. Further, both XXXX and XXXX were aware that I had been a victim of a Privacy Breach from the Office of Personnel Management Privacy Breach and that my personal and financial information was being circulated on the dark web. Second XXXX XXXX continues to report as accurate a Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy Filing from XX/XX/2011 that was dismissed without a discharge. The exception to the rule which XXXX XXXX is in violation relates to the removal of Bankruptcy Filings not subject to a discharge. As a result, XXXX XXXX is also misreporting thre is an " Individual Debt '' responsibility, where there is not, otherwise XXXX XXXX would have reported the amount of the the debt. 

Both XXXX and XXXX have complied with the request to remove the wrongful reporting, but XXXX XXXX does not. This appears to be a pattern for XXXX XXXX as they are [ 5 ] Negative Accounts on my report and [ 1 ] Negative Public Record. Based on the information provided, none of the credit bureaus, XXXX, XXXX nor Capital One/XXXX have a legal right to continue misreporting this information. 

XXXX and XXXX abandoned all claims and cancelled all the debt, as such they are not party to any claim, nor can they report something that is no longer theirs. Yet the reporting persisits. XXXX, XXXX, Capital One/XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, perhaps all are working in concert to deliberately suppress my credit score by reporting false information. 

My credit report speaks for itself if you will look beyond the issues I have raised. Nonetheless, even with these accounts listed my stats : XXXX % On-Time Payments. 
XXXX year old credit history line. 
XXXX % Credit Used. 
*No Recent inquries. 
*Even though I am handicapped due to your scoring for recent accounts, none have ever been late. 

I can easily demonstrate damages here. I am ready to buy a home, but I can not do so with this errant reporting on my credit reports.
