Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (SD)

For the second time this year EXPERIAN COMPANY has manipulated my credit score by decreasing a significant XXXX points. First on XX/XX/XXXX by exactly XXXX points ( see complaints XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. ) There is no data from FICO that reduces my credit score by a significant XXXX points. XXXX and XXXX both do not decrease my credit score by a one time significant XXXX points. Today EXPERIAN COMPANY once again manipulated my credit score down by the same significant XXXX points. My second complaint ( XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ) is still open and EXPERIAN COMPANY is once again manipulating my credit score down by a one time significant XXXX points with no cause. EXPERIAN COMPANY is manipulating my credit score alone with no reason and against the FAIR Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 605 On XX/XX/XXXX Experian Company manipulated my credit score down by XXXX points. I exhaustively tried contacting them as to why they decided to do decrease my credit score significantly by XXXX points. They do not and will not provide a phone number to contact support in anyway. Their automated phone system is designed to not allow service or support to the people they are claim to be serving. I complained before ( Complaint ID XXXX ) and got a non-answer in reply from Experian Company XXXX I complained again ( Complaint ID XXXX ) and got another non-answer from Experian Company XXXX It has become obvious that Experian Company copies and pastes they non-answer speel. This complaint will continue until they actually read the content of the complain and give real answers. Not one of the reasons they list as reason for decrease in MY CREDIT SCORE was in reports by Fair Isaac Corporation. Everything listed as reasons a credit score would go up by Experian Company is listed in reports by Fair Isaac Corporation. ONCE AGAIN EXPERIAN COMPANY WHY DID YOU MANIPULATED MY CREDIT SCORE DOWN BY XXXX POINTS? Everybody knows how credit scores are suppose to work but my question has always been why Experian Company specifically MY CREDIT SCORE. I replied back within the limited amount time to Experian Company but Complaint ID XXXX and Complaint ID XXXX was closed without answers. I have requested full credit reports from all three Credit Reporting Bureaus via the phone option. XXXX and XXXX both send me the paper credit reports via mail but Experian has refused to send my credit report as requested. Fair Isaac Corporation simply did not decrease my credit score as it would have reflected on my XXXX and XXXX credit report as well that were done after Experian Company manipulated my credit score significantly XXXX points lower. If Experian Company wants to claim they do not manipulate credit reports they should note why my credit score was decreased as not one indicator has been shown by Experian Company. Not one thing in any of my credit reports should bring my credit score down by a significant XXXX points. Experian Company is in violation of the Fair Credit Act by not indicating the reason to decrease my credit score significantly by XXXX points. Note below directly : Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 605. Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c ] ( 2 ) Key factor in credit score information. Any consumer reporting agency that furnishes a consumer report that contains any credit score or any other risk score or predictor on any consumer shall include in the report a clear and conspicuous statement that a key factor ( as defined in section 609 ( f ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ) that adversely affected such score or predictor was the number of enquiries, if such a predictor was in fact a key factor that adversely affected such score. This paragraph shall not apply to a check services company, acting as such, which issues authorizations for the purpose of approving or processing negotiable instruments, electronic fund transfers, or similar methods of payments, but only to the extent that such company is engaged in such activities. Experian Company is also in violation of the Fair Credit Act for not providing a credit report. Note a direct quote of the Fair Credit Act below : Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 605A.
