Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

I received a credit card from XXXX  several months ago in hopes of rebuilding my credit to purchase a home. I received the card used it a few times throughout the day then the last purchase I attempted to make declined. I immediately contacted customer service to inquire about this because it was a brand new card and I know that the small purchases I made didnt total to the credit limit of the card. This was over 60 days ago it is reporting negatively on my credit report and I only received some assistance when I opened a case with the XXXX. I decided to call today because again it has surpassed the 60 days that they claimed the investigation would take. Coincidentally I was told I received a denial for my claim today through email which I did not but it was awfully strange that when I called the case so happens to be closed on this particular day. This is reporting negatively to my credit report for months assistance with this matter has been nonexistent to say the least. Again this and several other cards which are current were to build my credit. XXXX isnt protecting its customers and is trying to get over which is no better than the individual who utilized my card however they were able to. I will fight this charge until it is removed I will not pay for something I didnt do. XXXX has dragged its feet for several months on this issue I will not be silenced about this I hoped this would be a good experience but it has been one of if not the worse experiences Ive had with a credit and company to date.

Mohela has been reporting information to third parties without my consent. It has ruined my reputation. The law says I have to give written instructions for this information to be furnished but Mohela never got my written instructions, consent or authorization to furnish this information.

I am writing to address the presence of unauthorized transactions in my consumer report, which I did not authorize or instruct. As a result, I formally request the blocking and removal of these accounts without any inaccuracies or misrepresentation of facts. Below, I have listed the specific accounts in question : It appears that your organization may be violating 15 U.S.C 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ), which prohibits a consumer report from solely containing information about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the entity reporting the information. 

This statute explicitly states that XXXX, as the reporting entity, should not include transactions or experiences associated with the line of credit extended between the consumer and the reporting entity in my consumer report. 

I urge you to promptly update my utilization to 5 % or below within 10 calendar days or remove all utilization from the mentioned accounts.

Furthermore, I request that you provide all documents on which you rely for reporting the referenced accounts, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ). The information you are reporting is damaging to my reputation and adversely affecting my creditworthiness.

Therefore, I demand the removal of these accounts from my file within 30 days, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), or verification of these accounts. 

Additionally, along with the removal of erroneous and unverified information, kindly eliminate all non-account holding inquiries older than 30 days. 

Failure to provide a satisfactory response with the deletion of the mentioned utilization and inquiries will result in legal action against your company, for which I will seek {$1000.00} per violation : Defamation of Character Civil Liability Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 violations for willful noncompliance - 616.
