Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted accounts, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on these accounts though your company claims to have verified these. 
Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. 

As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Experian ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

We lost our home in a fire 5 days before XXXX 2023. We notified the company the following week, due to the holiday and becoming homeless. We were told not to worry about any payments during this time, that the insurance company would issue the proceeds from the homeowners policy and pay off the loan since the house and everything in it was a total loss. Due to the holiday and the insurance company 's policies regarding total loss, they needed to certify what happened to the house, which took well into XXXX. We kept the lender updated as to what was happening and as soon as the investigation was completed, funds were issued and sent to the lender. We waited for over 2 months AFTER the lender had the check for them to pay off the loan! As if it wasn't bad enough losing everything, and being told things were good on the lender side, we came to find out that the company was reporting XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX all as late on the credit report when they told us not to worry about the payments and when THEY HAD THE PAYOFF CHECK!!! To add insult to this whole situation, during this time, they also initiated a foreclosure on the home! We have disputed the credit report several times and received nothing out of it but a form letter response and nothing has changed. This isn't right! We need to get another home and a loan for it, but can't now because of their recent reporting on the credit report. ( We have denial letters stating this is specifically the reason why our application was denied ). Even though this company has lied to us, charged us thousands in unauthorized fees and charges with no explanation, and denied us numerous requests for information and records, we aren't seeking any monetary damages or refunds, we just want this information removed from the credit report immediately so we can move on with our life, part ways from this lender, and never again cross paths with each other or continue to fight this same battle month after month.

I wish to express my deep disappointment regarding the reporting provided by your organization, as documented in the enclosed document. It is regrettable to note that the aforementioned reporting falls significantly short of being comprehensive and fails to meet the standards I deem essential. As mandated by the law, it is crucial for both your esteemed entity and the data furnishers involved to undertake the certification of all facets pertaining to the obligatory Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Metro 2 compliance. This certification must be executed with utmost integrity, accuracy, thoroughness, and timeliness, so as to avoid any inadvertent violation or infringement upon my consumer and civil rights

Ive had a U.S. bank account for less than a month and it has been the most inconvenient experience Ive ever had. I havent been able to use my card for large transactions, and merchants have blocked me from using their services online due to the restrictions and flags placed by US bank. When adding my card to XXXX XXXX, I had to call in and wait on hold to complete the process. Not even 24 hours after having my card attached to XXXX XXXX, I had to remove it and have been unable to add it back. After almost an hour on the phone with 4 different departments and a manager, theyre telling me there is a block on my card and a specialist will reach out to me in 24-48 hours to unblock my card. Manager XXXX I just spoke to also informed me I may not be able to withdraw my funds from this account in person. This makes absolutely no sense that US bank is holding my funds from me with no resolution from customer service. Need this rectified asap as I need to use my card and have access to my money.

" 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.
