Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

I filed a complaint with the three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. They ignored my complaint and accused me of using a third party to file it. This is not true, as I submitted the complaint myself. Attached are some letters and my ID for your review. If they continue to ignore my complaint, I will file a lawsuit against them and demand compensation for the damage they have caused.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MD)

I am writing to formally register a complaint regarding a charge-off listed on my consumer filethe subsequent issuance of a 1099-C form by [ XXXX XXXX ]. 

I received a 1099-C form from [ XXXX  XXXX ] indicating a debt cancellation that exceeded {$600.00}. While I acknowledge the debt cancellation was processed, the debt was included in my taxable income, and I have paid the necessary taxes to the IRS regarding this matter. According to the IRS guidelines, a 1099-C can not be reported as a deficiency in my consumer credit file after a debt has been canceled. This constitutes taxable income. 

Reporting this debt on my credit file has significantly impacted my creditworthiness and ability to secure financing. Therefore, I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter thoroughly. 

Experian is reporting taxable income on my consumer file.

I recently reviewed a copy of my account and noticed that there are two accounts under the same name ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) one account number is XXXX and the other account number is XXXX while this is not the issue at hand I am seeing that its reporting on my report for one item, one has a balance of {$14000.00} which was opened on XX/XX/year> and one has a paid off balance which was opened XX/XX/year>. The company and the credit bureau failed to correct this problem, they are saying that the information is accurate. How can this be seen as accurate for two different accounts for one item with one being paid off earlier and returning under a different account as owing a balance. Please remove these accounts from my report as they are hurting my ability to obtain credit.

For the past XXXX months I've been trying to remove a Bankruptcy file from Experian, XXXX and XXXX and they have denied me with all my efforts. I started with the court that is attached to this file number, they responded by letter stating that they do not disclose these cases to credit bureaus. Simultaneously I requested a full report from XXXX XXXX and they too had a bankruptcy file on my records with them but after sending out a letter to them asking that it be removed if they could not show me where I consented to them reporting my information ; they proceeded to remove this account and also sent me an update that it had been removed. Their response ( letter from XXXX ) along with my court response was sent out to Experian, XXXX and XXXX on XXXX different occasions which they claim their resources to be accurate. Neither of these bureaus have let me know who their " sources '' are that they are receiving my personal information from and I feel as though I am entitled to know that information. This is a misuse of my personal information and has truly affected my lively hood. Looking forward to the CFPB assisting me on this matter.
