I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

On XX/XX/24 | opened a dispute against XXXX XXXX XXXX with Experian credit reporting for the incorrect balance, date of last payment, and last payment amount. XXXX XXXX claims that my latest payment was XX/XX/24 with a balance of {$470.00}. This is incorrect. My latest payment was XX/XX/24 with a balance of {$200.00}. I furnished Experian with screenshots, from the app of all of the payments that had been made from XXXX and a copy of the the billing statement of XXXX which show a payment of {$120.00}, which was made on XX/XX/24. On XX/XX/24 Experian sent me a notification that my Account Dispute had been updated. Shortly thereafter XX/XX/24 a second notification was sent to me by Experian claiming my Dispute Results was ready. There had been no change as Experian claimed for the report remained unchanged. Later on XX/XX/24 I filed a second dispute for the same exact issue, emphasizing their failure to have XXXX XXXX change anything although they had the evidence. On XX/XX/24 Experian notified me that my dispute was completed and updated. The updated information posted was that the updated information as of XX/XX/24 my latest payment was XX/XX/24 with a payment of {$120.00} with a balance of {$350.00}, ignoring the correct information that was given. On XX/XX/24 I opened a third dispute, this time giving them the current statement, from XXXX XXXX I might add, which clearly shows my latest payment was made on XX/XX/24 with a payment of {$150.00} with a current balance of {$210.00}. On XX/XX/24 Experian sent a notification that the dispute was completed and updated. The result were that nothing had changed from their investigation and that XXXX XXXX had confirmed the information that they provided. And one Experian source has that the updated information that had been posted from XXXX XXXX changed from XXXX XXXX XXXX. How is this even possible? I called Experian on XX/XX/24, spoke with XXXX where he asked if I uploaded my evidence. When I assured him that I did do so. He said that he had to find the evidence. He found my uploaded documents and I asked him to verify the that he was looking at the correct document and that the information was correct, which he answered yes. The correct information takes my credit usage on that account from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX  Thats massive. But I can see that Experian has no interest in posting correct credit reports.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Issue with income share agreement — Marketing or disclosure issues
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (NY)

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding the treatment I have received from Navient in relation to my student loans. 

Before Navient took over servicing my loans, I was with Sallie Mae, both of which have been found guilty of predatory lending practices, particularly against minority households misled about the student loan process. As a XXXX individual, I believe I have experienced unfair treatment that has worsened my financial situation. 

The income-driven repayment system has not provided the relief it promised ; instead, it has added significant financial and emotional stress. 

Navients recent announcement regarding the transfer of student loan servicing to XXXX, framed as a standard business practice to reduce expenses, feels disingenuous. It disregards the years of profit made at the expense of students, and there has been a lack of acknowledgment or apology for the harm caused. 

Even with the settlement that has been agreed to, there will still be millions of affected people like myself who fear they will not be compensated fairly and accurately. 

I urge your company to review my case and address these concerns promptly. It is essential for companies in this sector to ensure fair treatment of all borrowers, regardless of background. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation. 

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.

I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate reporting of a late payment for my XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX in XX/XX/2023. According to the payment history provided directly from your records, this account was not late in XX/XX/2023. In fact, the payment was made ahead of schedule on XX/XX/2023. Despite providing this evidence, you have refused to correct this inaccurate information, which is both misleading and damaging to my credit profile. 

Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), you are required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information you report. The refusal to correct this clear inaccuracy, despite being provided with evidence, violates this provision. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681i mandates that you reinvestigate any disputed information if the consumer provides reasonable evidence that the information is inaccurate. 

Violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : The incorrect reporting of the late payment, despite evidence to the contrary, may also constitute a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1692e, which prohibits false or misleading representations in connection with the collection of any debt. Inaccurately reporting a late payment falls under this category and can have severe consequences for the consumer. 

XXXX XXXX Compliance Issues : The XXXX XXXX format, which is the industry standard for credit reporting, requires consistent and accurate reporting of account information. The inaccurate late payment reporting for XX/XX/2023, despite the payment being made in advance on XX/XX/2023, indicates non-compliance with XXXX XXXX guidelines. This non-compliance further warrants the immediate correction of this information. 

Request for Immediate Action : I am requesting the immediate removal of the inaccurate late payment information for XX/XX/2023 from my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXk Account # XXXX. Additionally, I request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report reflecting this correction.
