To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I started disputing accuracy of the accounts with the collection agency 's for one whole year now, I ask why they are inaccurately reporting this charged off a account with a monthly balance for the past couple of years, this is a violation per the FCRA section 623 section 5. Furnishers must only notify the credit reporting agencies the date, month and year when the account was marked as a charge off. Additionally I keep asking them to validate the alleged debt. They just keep on sending itemization of charges which is not debt validation. I ask them for proof of the initial contract and or my wet signature. they have failed several times. The is affecting my credit worthiness and i demand this to be removed from my credit report immediately.
