I must bring to your attention that I have repeatedly notified the Experian credit bureau to update my credit profile accurately and accordingly. Yet, to my dismay, you have failed to do so. It is my hard-earned reputation that is at stake here, and your negligence to take necessary actions is unacceptable. I have several accounts on my credit report that are being fraudulently reported as a result of identity theft. It is distressing to note that among all the credit bureaus, Experian is the only one that has not rectified this issue. I demand you to remove the accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I received a notification in regards to my credit report from Transunion and XXXX. The notification told me that my credit scores had decreased by XXXX points with Transunion and XXXX points with XXXX, because my vehicle loan balance decrease by {$450.00} due to me making a payment on time. When I called TransUnion to find out why they decreased my score due to a on-time payment he told me they decrease my score because of a late payment from over a year. They penalized me and decrease my credit over a year ago when I had the late payment, but now I have been paying on time the correct amounts, and they have decreased my score again. This is very frustrating as I have worked very hard to try to get my credit back up. I can understand being penalized for being late or missing a payment and making my score go down. But to decrease my score by so many points, because I made a payment on a loan on time and correctly is not okay.

Problems with ASPIRE : ASPIRE owes a refund {$18.00} I never received it.

I have phoned ASPIRE many times to solve this issue. Each time I call, a phone rep tells the new date that I should receive the refund, and the letter of explanation.

Any issue of post office delivery was resolved months ago. There is no local issue.

This " lip service '' from ASPIRE has been going on since early this year. I also filed complaints with this consumer bureau back in May ... .still no results.

In addition, I would like to know why the company 's reps continue to promise the delivery of the refund, but never follow through. Why is there double speak?

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding incorrect information on my credit report that has been verified by Experian as accurate. Upon closer inspection, I have identified several inconsistencies that are grounds for deletion : 1. Incorrect Information : The account status listed on my credit report by Experian contains incorrect information, including the date of last payment, the date opened, and the date last active. 
2. Inconsistencies Across Credit Bureaus : The account status is inconsistent across the XXXX major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and Experian ). 
These discrepancies violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that all information on a consumers credit report must be accurate and consistent. Under FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputes and ensure the accuracy and completeness of information. Furthermore, FCRA 607 ( b ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) requires credit reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 
I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) investigate this matter and compel the credit bureaus ( Experian, XXXX, and XXXX ) to delete the incorrect and inconsistent account from my credit report. The inaccuracies and inconsistencies in reporting are causing undue harm to my creditworthiness and financial reputation.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

I am writing to dispute the inaccurate information regarding my XXXX XXXX account ( Account Number : XXXX ) on my credit report. Specifically, I have identified inconsistencies in the payment history reported by the three major credit reporting agencies. 
Discrepancies : * Experian has reported the account as charged off. 
* XXXX has reported the same account and time period as paid as agreed. 
These discrepancies are clear violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that all information on a consumers credit report must be accurate and consistent. 
Under FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputes and ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information they report. Additionally, FCRA 607 ( b ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) requires credit reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 
Given the conflicting information between Experian and XXXX regarding the status of my XXXX XXXX account, it is evident that the information being reported can not be verified as accurate. 
Therefore, I request the immediate deletion of this account from my credit report to ensure compliance with FCRA guidelines and to prevent further harm to my creditworthiness and financial reputation. 


Enclosed are copies of my credit reports from Experian and XXXX highlighting the discrepancies in the reporting of the XXXX XXXX account.
