Experian made numerous errors releasing my report. I went through proper channels to correct my report. Instead of doing the right thing and reporting my student loan paid in full, they took away my credit score entirely to damage me. My data was leaked in a security breach and I have proof. I have started and lead a class action against my bank who leaked our data and didn't tell us. I also used a security freeze to try to protect myself.

I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

I received notice of an attempt at debt collection from Fair Collections & Outsourcing. I requested that they verify the debt by mailing proof of both its existence and their ownership of it, and the " proof '' they sent were several documents with someone else 's name on them, leading to me calling and telling them that they should be after the person whose name was on the documents they sent me, and that they should not contact me further. They, however, have since continued to attempt to collect this debt from me regardless, leading to me having to focus on other means of getting them to leave me alone.

I have lost count of the number of letters I have sent to your bureau regarding my status as a victim of identity theft, as my concerns have yet to be fully resolved. Once again, I am disputing the fraudulent information that is adversely affecting my credit file. Despite my submission of the required FTC complaint, your bureau continues to report these fraudulent accounts on my credit report. I want to emphasize that I have already contacted the banks associated with these accounts, submitted the necessary documents, and had the accounts promptly deleted from their records. Moreover, other credit bureaus have already removed these accounts from their records following the submission of the FTC complaint. Therefore, I am curious about the verification process your bureau employed to continue reporting these fraudulent accounts. So please DELETE the accounts from my file!
