Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NJ)

I am writing to formally demand the immediate removal of specific items listed on my consumer credit report, as they are infringing on federally protected trademark rights. It has come to my attention that the negatively impacting accounts your company is erroneously reporting are being reported without proper authorization, consent, or licensing. 

The name on those accounts is a federally registered trademark, protected under the United States Patent and Trademark Office ( USPTO ), under the serial number XXXX. The presence of this name on my credit report, associated with negatively impacting items, constitutes a misuse of this trademark. Such actions are not only misleading but also illegal as they violate federal trademark laws including the XXXX XXXX, which prohibits unauthorized use of a registered trademark in a manner likely to cause confusion, deception, or mistake ( 15 U.S.C. 1114 ). 

Please be advised that the continued use of this trademark or any similar markings without explicit permission from the trademark holder constitutes an infringement of trademark rights. Failure to remove these inaccuracies from my credit report will compel me to pursue all legal remedies available under the law. This may include, but is not limited to, seeking monetary damages for defamation and further misuse of the trademark as per established precedents like XXXX XXXX v. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX Cir. 1979 ), where unauthorized use of a trademark was held as grounds for trademark infringement and associated damages. 

I trust that you will treat this matter with the urgency and seriousness it warrants. Please ensure that these items are removed from my credit report within 30 days from the date of this notice, as prescribed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Should this matter not be resolved promptly and according to the legal stipulations mentioned, I will have no option but to seek legal recourse to protect my rights and recover damages for any harm caused by this infringement. 

I expect to receive a written confirmation from your agency within fifteen ( XXXX ) business days regarding the initiation of the items ' removal. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this serious issue.

" 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. ''

" 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.
