Consumer complaint received 2024-09-25
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

My current credit report has a listing and or listings in which has not been validated by your company per request per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file.

The Bankruptcy Court has mailed me letters which states that they DO NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate and/or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies, and/or other third-party providers who collects information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the Recorder of Deeds nor the U. S. District Court system due to the Fair Credit Reporting Agency PRIVACY LAW.

My request to the U. S. District Courts confirmed Experian has never validated or verified these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MISUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unawares to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrectly. Considering the information indicating a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation, I need all tax lien and bankruptcy information currently showing under my social security number, date of birth, and/or address to be PERMANENTLY DELETED from my credit report immediately. 

The Experian needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these Public Record Accounts bearing either a court order to place this information in my credit report along with my authorization of release bearing my signature. To be in full compliance with the FCRA laws and guidelines, all the information listed under Public Records needs to be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my social security number, date of birth, and/or address. Be further advised that I am closely monitoring my credit file. Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete this investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ).

Per the Federal Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), you are required by federal law to verify through physical verification of the original signed consumer contract and/or judgment ( s ) all accounts and public information that you post on anyones credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, email in fraudulent and erroneous account information. As such, if this unauthorized public record information is not deleted from my credit report within the next 30 days, I have already filed a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission and will follow with a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau claim if you fail to respond within 30 days of receipt of this dispute.
