Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I am submitting my complaint and therefore I demand the immediate removal of inaccurate informations in my file. I saw these UNVERIFIABLE items on my personal profile, I noticed that there were items on my credit report which are UNKNOWN to me. This is disappointing and I have been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report all this time. The fraudulent accounts must be REMOVED from my credit file. Per Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 605B ( a ) the credit bureaus are required to remove any accounts which was opened without my knowledge, consent or authority within 4 business days with ( 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. The following items needs to remove : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (PA)

Under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I assert that the list of accounts mentioned below has infringed upon my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality, as outlined in 15 USC 1681. 

1. Account name : Bankruptcy # XXXX In line with the Engelhardt v. Gravens ( Mo ) 281 SW 715,719 case and the doctrine of estoppel by silence, it can be reasonably deduced that the lack of evidence presented by me suggests the absence of the alleged debt.

According to the US Bankruptcy Court, it has been established that they do not report or furnish information to credit bureaus or agencies.

Thank you

Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the 3Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal of complying with my request. I know for a fact that they are to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act law, provide proof, and documents, and give definite and accurate responses, within the given statutory time. However, if they failed to do so, they are obliged to remove or update the items which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

My consumer credit report is updating incorrectly in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681g. I dispute the XXXX account also known as XXXX XXXX XXXX in a Charge-off status and past due balance estimated to be {$10000.00}. 1 ) Statute violation : FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). I am contesting the accuracy of this information and requesting that you remove the account from my credit report immediately. I believe that the creditor 's reporting of a charge-off account with a balance is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. According to the FCRA, a creditor is not allowed to continue to report a charge-off account with a balance. This violation further supports my request to have the account removed from my credit report.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (WI)

A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back.

Company: SLM CORPORATION (PA)

We had a person living in our household to help them out. NOT a family member. This person took out a Sallie Mae Student loan in XXXX. Shortly afterward this person moved out of our home and apparently has not kept to their loan agreement. Since they lived in our home, I have been receiving calls looking for them. I informed we no longer have any contact with this person to stop calling. 

This is what broke the camel 's back. It was bad enough I received numerous calls throughout the years, however now my family members are receiving calls as well. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Sallie Mae and informed them to stop calling and they asked for the numbers that were being called. Advised. I told them this is not the first request, and they are breaking the law by not complying. XXXX XXXX XXXX I received a voice mail demanding a message to be given to this party. 

I want the calls to stop, we have nothing to do with this debt nor this person,
