I am writing to dispute certain accounts that have been furnished on my consumer report by your agency. These accounts should not be furnished in my consumer report as they are in violation under 15 USC 1681b - Permissible Purpose of Consumer Reporting Agencies.

Under 15 USC 1681b, any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under specific circumstances, and no other. Subsection ( 2 ) of this statute clearly states that a consumer report can be provided " in accordance with the written instruction of the consumer to whom it relates. '' I have never provided written consent to any consumer reporting agency to report the accounts in question, which directly violates my rights as a consumer. The absence of consent implies identity theft, a serious offense that undermines the integrity of my consumer report. 
I am formally demanding the immediate deletion of the following accounts from my consumer report : Account Name : XXXXXXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account XXXX : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Furthermore, I would like to draw your attention to 15 USC 1681c-2, which states that a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information resulting from an alleged identity theft. I have filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) regarding identity theft and have been assigned the reference number [ XXXX ]. As such, I kindly request that you comply with this statute and block the reporting of the aforementioned accounts not later than four business days after the date of receipt of this letter.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

XXXX and Experian violated the United States code Law ( TILA 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( 0 ) charge error ).

Upon conducting a recent examination of my credit history, I discovered a substantial number of billing issues under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) billing error.

( 4 ) The creditor 's inability to truthfully depict an obligation payment or credit that Was given to the debtor on a statement.

( 5 ) A computation error or other similar accounting error on a creditor 's statement.

I have disputed these errors repeatedly only to receive a verified or remains reply from XXXX and Experian. I have supplied proof and that proof has been attached to this complaint. The documentation reveals XXXX accounts with frivolous and inaccurate reportings. The information is not accurate and must be deleted immediately. XXXX is deliberately violating the law and refusing to comply with the consumer reporting laws by not doing a proper investigation and continuing to report these inaccurate accounts.

The errors on all accounts show that the current balance is higher than the highest balance. The current balance cant be higher than the highest balance the account has ever had. Therefore the accounts are reporting inaccurately. The accounts also show 100 % on time payment history but also is reporting XXXX days late. An account cant be 100 % on time payments while having any late payments. These inaccurate accounts must be removed as the inaccurate reporting of these accounts on my credit reports are causing me to be denied funding for a home purchase.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

The company has taken over 60 days for many disputes including the most recent with CFPB. They have not updated my credit scores either and all trade lines across all XXXX of my reports match equally. My income to debt ratio is also excellent. My income is XXXX a year annually. Yet, my credit score is XXXX and nearly XXXX with XXXX and XXXX and XXXX points lower with Experian v XXXX. 

I feel that there is bias with this company because I choose not to use their Boost system any longer and they are penalizing me for filing complaints. My credit score has actually gone down with them since finally complaints and my payment history has actually gotten better with paying off a student loan and all of my credit card debt. Explain this Experian?
