Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

I called XXXX because XXXX locked my 3-credit card ( CC ) accounts numerous times after trying to access them to make a payment and review my account statements.

Finally, I spoke with a lady, and she failed to add my XXXX checking account to all my XXXX cc auto payments. She failed to add 1 of the 3 XXXX CC to my XXXX account. She had access to all my XXXX  cc and made the error of leaving XXXX cc ending in XXXX without my XXXX auto-payment account. 

XXXX reported to all Credit Bureau that my account was late in XXXX of 2024, however, I wasn't aware of the situation, nor did XXXX contact me until the late fee was assessed. 

I became aware of this situation ( late payment and credit decrease ) after XXXX XXXX sent me a notification that my credit was impacted, and my credit limit was decreased. 
Around XX/XX/year>, I called XXXX, and an employee called XXXX made an adjustment on my cc for the late fee and said XXXX would update all credit bureaus. 
Two weeks later, I talked to XXXX and she said the same thing and provided case # XXXX for my records. 

On XX/XX/year>, I received a letter stating : that All of the account details we reported are accurate. We reported this account as delinquent for 30 days on XX/XX/year>. This means we wont be adjusting our reporting as you requested and consider your dispute resolved. 

On XXXX, I started getting the round around an employee, XXXX, and told me to call the next day On XXXX, I talked to Supervisor, XXXX and she explained that I was given the wrong info and shared that an apology letter was going to be sent to me ( which I haven't received as of today ). I felt that my conversation with XXXX was hostile and came across as retaliatory. It came to a point that I shared that most likely I was going to take legal action. 

On XXXX I paid XXXX over {$1200.00} to improve my debt- ratio, increase my credit score, and prevent other banks from limiting my credit limit like XXXX On XXXX with no warnings or motive XXXX retaliates and lowers my credit limit again. Other cc companies follow suit. They promised to send me a letter, but they failed to send it as it's their failure to properly communicate. 

It's very disappointing that my score is trash because of the retaliatory actions and wrongful intent actions from XXXX. Their actions of not recognizing they failed my access to my accounts and statements. Their actions prevented me from adding my account info and reviewing statements. Their actions prevented me from accessing my cc account. Furthermore, they decreased my credit limit 1 day after I paid over {$1200.00} for no reason since I haven't used the credit card or missed payments with them or any of my other accounts. My credit was 100 % on time until XXXX failed to do the right thing and damaged my credit.

These can be combined On my credit report, you have shown incorrect accounts that should not be there at all. This is not only unjust to me, but it's also concerning, because I've never done or made any of the things you accuse me of. If you don't look into these accounts, I'll take legal action against you.

I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

On XX/XX/2024 the credit company 's claimed that the information for a bankruptcy was verified. In your response you said the account was verified by XXXX XXXX, I disputed the accuracy of this information and they could not verify the account! You have violated my consumer rights. 
You stated that the account was verified, how did you come to possess this information? 
I am very sure I did not give you any permission ; no permissible purpose. 

15 USC 1681b ( A ) IN GENERAL Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. 

When did I give you permission? Your action amounts to fraud and aggravated Identity theft 15 USC 1681q You Obtained my information under false pretenses. 

Any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title XXXX, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. 

18 USC 1028A Whoever, during and in relation to any felony violation enumerated in subsection ( c ), knowingly transfers, possesses, or uses, without lawful authority, a means of identification of another person shall, in addition to the punishment provided for such felony, be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 2 years. 

You are guilty of obtaining my private non public personal information, you had no form of permissible purpose, you knowingly accessed my consumer report without any permissible purpose. 

The account # that you have verified can not be verified, the data furnisher must verify this disputed request, yes both of you alleged that this account was verified, But as you can see, in the attachments the source you have used to tell you verified just deleted this inaccurate account in less from the consumer report. 

Promptly delete this account from my credit reports and to every person you have furnished this inaccurate into to.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am reaching out to you in a state of utter desperation. The inaccuracies on my credit report have shattered my dreams, torn apart my sense of security, and left me in a constant state of anxiety. My life is unraveling before my eyes, and I dont know where else to turn. 

I recently filed complaints ( Complaint IDs : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) concerning several accounts that are inaccurately reported on my credit file. Despite my best efforts, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX have told me they can not even find my accounts, leaving me helpless in providing details that I dont have. How can I defend myself against something they claim doesnt exist? 

Because of these errors, my life is falling apart. The car I need to go to work and the home Ive dreamt of owning are both slipping through my fingers. I am mentally and emotionally broken. The weight of this situation is unbearable, and I fear that it could destroy everything Ive worked so hard to build. 

The accounts in question are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX These accounts are wrongly holding me hostage, violating my federally protected rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. I reviewed my XXXX credit report on XXXX XXXX XXXX, and was devastated to find glaring inaccuracies that are completely beyond my control. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ), consumer reporting agencies are legally required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information in consumer reports. Additionally, under 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ), if disputed information is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable, it must be promptly deleted or corrected. And yet, despite these clear legal protections, I remain trapped in this nightmare. 

Furthermore, under 15 USC 1681s-2, furnishers are prohibited from providing information they know or have reasonable cause to believe is inaccurate. And yet, my life is being destroyed by false information that continues to haunt me. 

My Previous Complaint Details : Complaint ID : XXXX ( TransUnion ) XXXX ID : XXXX ( XXXX ) Complaint ID : XXXX ( XXXX ) These complaints remain unresolved, and the inaccuracies persist, wreaking havoc on my life. I am begging youplease, remove this inaccurate information from my credit report. I feel like Im drowning in a sea of injustice, with no way out. This is not just a matter of numbers on a report ; this is my life, my future, and my sanity at stake. I can not bear this burden any longer. 

Please help me fix this before its too late. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
