PLEASE ESCALATE THIS COMPLAINT! 10 UNANSWERED " CFPB.GOV '' COMPLAINTS UNANSWERED IN MORE THAN 30,40 & 50 DAYS '' ... UNACCEPTABLE I am writing to express my extreme frustration and disappointment with the handling of my disputes. Despite submitting XXXX disputes, which is an excessive number, I have YET to receive a response for ANY OF THEM, with some pending for over 50 days. This is UTTERLY UNACCEPTABLE and requires immediate escalation. 

The lack of response to my formal COMPLAINTS is equally disturbing. AS a consumer, I expect a prompt and efficient resolution process, especially when dealing with errors on my credit report. Experian 's inaction has caused me significant stress, wasted time, and financial consequences. 

Attached to this complaint is a copy of ALL DISPUTES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ANSWERED BY EXPERIAN. 

I demand that Experian takes immediate action to address these disputes and provides a comprehensive resolution within the next 14 days. I also expect a formal investigation into the delays and a detailed explanation for the lack of response to my previous complaints. 

If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will be forced to explore further action, and seeking legal counsel.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

They have called me numerous times, the most recent being XX/XX/19, at XXXX XXXX. I have already explained to them I am NOT the person they are attempting to collect from, and they refuse to remove my phone number from their system. I have gone so far as to call them twice, and explain that they are obviously incorrect ... I know this, because I have NO DEBT. They also claim to be a law firm, which is 100 % false. They are actually Sarma Debt Collection.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a late payment on my credit report by credit bureaus. The presence of this late payment inaccurately reflects my payment history, as I have consistently paid my bills on time. This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B. According to this law, consumers have the right to dispute and seek correction of billing errors, which include inaccuracies in payment reporting.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in my account to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than XXXX  days before the payment due date. 


XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I have received your computer-generated notice informing me that you did not do any action or investigation for the disputes I sent out last time because you think I may have used a third-party credit repair company. Not only do I think this is just your delaying tactics to get an extra 30 days to fulfill my first request, but I also think it's a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Again, please be informed that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete information on my credit report.

Issue: Problem with a purchase or transfer — Card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase or transfer
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (NY)

On XX/XX/2019 I made an online purchase from XXXX in the amount of {$320.00} which was charged to my American Expess Serve Pre-Paid Debit card ending in # XXXX. They had to order it for delivery to the local store for pickup by me. On XX/XX/2019 I picked up the items from the local XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX. I was remodeling a bedroom and wasn't ready to install the closet bi-fold doors yet ( The items I picked up ). When I was ready to install the doors I opened the packages and discovered that 1 of the doors was damaged and both doors had a very poor finish and were not of satisfactory quality. On XX/XX/2019 I returned both bi-fold doors to the local XXXX XXXX XXXX  # XXXX for a refund of the purchase price of {$320.00} to be credited back to my American Express Service re-Paid Debit card ending in # XXXX. On XX/XX/2019 I received an email from American Express Serve stating my Serve Account ending in # XXXX was suspended due to " one or more credits were issued on your account that did not have a corresponding debit ''. This was a plain fraudulent misrepresentation. I have printed documentation from the Serve website regarding my transaction history which clearly lists both transactions. I called them numerous times since XX/XX/2019 to request this problem be corrected and was told they would submit my request to their " BACK OFFICE '' for review. Each time I have called I receive the same response. In addition I am told there is no time frame for this to be resolved and that I would receive an email from the " BACK OFFICE '' as soon as it is resolved. On XX/XX/2019 they restored the funds back to my Serve account # XXXX, however they locked the account so I would not be able to withdraw the funds and cancel my account. They told me it was still under Merchant Transaction Review. They have taken 11 days not to review this transaction and clearly can see it in my transaction history. The only method of reaching the Serve Card Team is by Phone to XXXX which connects me to the XXXX, Account Protection Service. There is NO USA number to call and reach someone who can resolve this issue. The customer service number on the card goes to a voice mail prompt asking what type of problem and never connects to a human being. It is now XX/XX/2019 and I am still waiting for my email from the " BACK OFFICE ''
