Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (OH)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Your company didn't even inform me about the Cost of Credit and the only evidence of the indebtedness was just a computer-generated agreement.

According to 15 USC 1602 ( k ), the term " adequate notice '' means a printed notice to a cardholder which sets forth the pertinent facts clearly and conspicuously so that a person against whom it is operate could reasonably be expected to have noticed it and understood its meaning. Such notice may be given to a cardholder by printing the notice on any credit card, or on each periodic statement of account, issued to the cardholder, or by any other means reasonably assuring the receipt thereof by the cardholder. 

Since adequate notice was not given as per the above-mentioned section, I couldn't understand its meaning which is a violation under 15 USC 1602 ( k ).

Further, pursuant to 15 USC 1601 ( a ) a consumer must be aware of the cost of transaction. Since I was not aware of the transaction therefore made a uniformed decision and it resulted in multiple billing errors, and unfair credit card practices.

From your end, I have not benefited from this transaction which is again violation of 15 USC 1602 ( p ).

According to 15 USC 1602 ( p ). The term " unauthorized use '' means a use of a credit card by a person other than the cardholder who does not have actual, implied or apparent authority or such use and form which the cardholder receives no benefit.

I hereby request you to do the below-mentioned things : DELETE THESE ACCOUNTS OFF MY REPORT AND VALIDATE THE DEBT 15 USC 1692 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ALSO UPDATE THE LATE PAYMENTS TO PAID ON TIME.

If you accept my request, i will not escalate this matter to Federal Court. In case, you don't accept the above requests, a legal action shall be taken against your Company for compensatory damages.

This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs. This underscores the importance of addressing and rectifying this matter promptly and responsibly.

I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
