" 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. 

This is a violation of both XXXX 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 "

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified item listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this item? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ).
Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the item listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the company directly.
They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THIS ITEM? I believe you have not verified this item based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

In addition to trying to correct fraudulent personal and credit card information on my Experian/credit report, I noticed that the company has a credit card number ( ending in XXXX ) as a payment method for my account with them. I do not recognize this credit card account, nor is it even listed among my open accounts on my Experian credit report. 
In attempting to get more information about this, and possibly report it as fraudulent, I have found it impossible to get any further information from Experian. Since it is not listed as an account on my credit report, I can't flag it as suspected fraud. And any attempts to get a live person on the line from Experian are stymied by them directing me to the website, no matter what buttons I press or answers I give when I call in to them. 
This is criminally bad customer service. 
Attached is a screenshot showing the only information I can find about this credit card account ( it is shown as the payment of record for my Experian account ).
