Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

In light of recent developments, it has been brought to my attention that the creditor failed to furnish the required XXXX notice along with a statement, which would have allowed sufficient time for payment processing and thus, prevented any late payments from occurring on these accounts. This oversight has led to a misrepresentation of the payment status, suggesting a billing error on the part of the creditor. 

In response to this discrepancy, I kindly request tangible evidence from the creditor 's bank account, demonstrating any instances of non-payment that purportedly resulted in the reported late status. This evidence is essential for clarifying the circumstances surrounding the alleged late payments and verifying the accuracy of the reported information.

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

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( XXXX ) 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. 
This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( XXXX ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent. 

Also, I was never disclosed of ALL three of my Opt-Out disclosures which states a financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party under 15 U.S. Code 6802 unless all three disclosures were satisfied but they were not.
