Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (WI)

I have been attempting to unfreeze my credit report from Experian for weeks. My bank will not approve a loan for a roof replacement on my house until Experian provides a report on my credit. 

I have attempted to get in touch with Experian by phone and no matter what options I select, I am not routed to an actual person who can help me and the automated system directs me to the website to unfreeze my credit, offering no option over the phone. 

The website attempts to validate my identity based on information it has on file associated with my social security number. As such, it locates out-of-date data for my demographic profile, and therefore the only option I have to " validate my account '' is a phone call or text message to a phone number I no longer possess. Calling for customer service loops be back to the website for this. You see the problem. 

I have submitted a request to permanently unfreeze my credit with Experian via mail with a completed request form and copies of my drivers license and a utility bill, and we have received XXXX feedback on this request which went out almost 2 weeks ago. 

My roof is actively leaking and until I can secure financing, I can not fix it. This is causing continued damage to my home and I'm considering all options to resolve this issue, starting with this formal complain.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> Experian, XXXX, XXXX Subject : Dispute of Late Payment Report Request for Correction Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of a late payment entry on my credit report. The specific entry in question is under the account [ Account Name # XXXX ], reported by [ XXXX XXXXXXXX. According to my records, the information is incorrect, and I am requesting an immediate correction. 

**Legal Basis for Dispute : ** 1. **15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ** : This section mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy and fairness of the information contained in consumer reports. The erroneous late payment entry on my report is neither accurate nor fair. 

2. **15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ** : This section emphasizes the need for the reporting system to be fair and equitable XXXX Reporting an incorrect late payment undermines the fairness and equity intended by this law. 

3. **15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ) ** : It is required that consumer credit reports are to be used in a manner that is appropriate and just. An incorrect late payment mark is an inappropriate and unjust use of my credit information. 

4. **15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) ** : The section outlines the importance of maintaining the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of credit information. The current late payment entry fails to meet these standards, particularly in terms of accuracy and relevancy. 

5. **15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ** : This provision excludes certain types of consumer information from being reported if they do not meet the criteria for accuracy and completeness. Given that the reported late payment is inaccurate, it should be excluded from my report. 

6. **15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( iii ) ** : The code specifies that information must be reported with maximum possible accuracy. As this late payment entry is erroneous, it fails to meet this criterion and must be corrected. 

**Requested Action : ** In light of these regulations, I request that [ Experian, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX investigate and correct this error promptly. I have attached relevant documentation ( e.g., payment receipts, correspondence with the creditor ) to support my claim. 

Please provide written confirmation of your receipt of this letter and an update on the status of my dispute within the time frame mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I am filing this complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX C/o XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, SC XXXX for reporting items to my credit report despite not being licensed to collect debts in the state of Ohio. As per the Ohio Revised Code, Section 1319.12, it is mandatory for any collection agency to be licensed to conduct collection activities within the state. After a thorough investigation, I have confirmed that XXXX XXXX XXXX does not hold a valid license in Ohio. 

This unlicensed collection activity and subsequent reporting to credit bureaus are illegal and violate both federal and state laws. Specifically, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) prohibits unfair practices in debt collection, and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires that information reported to credit bureaus be accurate and verifiable. By reporting these items to my credit report, XXXX XXXX XXXX has breached these regulations, negatively affecting my creditworthiness. 

I have previously disputed this matter directly with the credit bureaus and XXXX XXXX XXXX, but the issue remains unresolved. Therefore, I am seeking the CFPB 's intervention to address this violation. 

Desired Resolution : I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and take appropriate action against XXXX XXXX XXXX for their unlicensed debt collection activities in Ohio. Additionally, I request the removal of all related items reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX from my credit report to rectify the damage caused by their illegal actions.

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''
