Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

Dealing with Experian is like pulling teeth! I am tired of them ignoring my disputes and saying they " respectfully deny your request '' regarding deleting inquiries. They stated in a complaint response to me regarding these illegal inquiries : " The inquiries shown on a credit report are a factual record of the companies who have accessed and reviewed a consumers profile. They are only logged on the report, when in fact, an inquiry was made. A record of this activity, pursuant to federal law, must remain a part of record. '' WHO WERE THE INQUIRIES MADE BY, Experian??? You don't even know, nor do you have proof! You are NOT supposed to keep false, unauthorized information in people 's credit files and wiping your hands clean as if you have nothing to do with it! These inquiries are affecting my credit report! Experian, you say " factual record '', but please tell me how an inquiry I DID NOT AUTHORIZE is factual, let alone verified & legal. JUST BECAUSE AN INQUIRY IS REPORTING DOES NOT MAKE IT MINE or legal. Addresses, dates, and account amounts are ALSO " factual record '', but if any of that info is incorrect, false, unverified, etc, then " PURSUANT TO FEDERAL LAW '' THEY MUST BE DELETED! Experian even admitted in their response to my CFPB complaint ending in XXXX that THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE APPLICATIONS FOR THESE INQUIRIES. They are the reporting company, yet THEY HAVE NO PROOF NOR DO THEY DEMAND PROOF FROM THE REPORTING COMPANIES. This is negligence! Experian, are you telling me that " pursuant to federal law '' INCORRECT, ILLEGAL, FALSE, INVALID, UNAUTHORIZED information, including inquiries " must remain '' even though they aren't mine and are illegal??? Furthermore, what's also illegal and a violation of 'federal law ' is the fact that you all DID NOT EVEN INVESTIGATE THESE ILLEGAL INQUIRIES. I demand that the inquiries are deleted immediately. They are NOT MINE, NOR do they even have permissible purpose to be there! I've already contacted the companies and you both are telling me to contact the OTHER!

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act. The List of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

I told the XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX to reinvestigate these accounts : Account name : # XXXX, Account name : # XXXX, Account name : # XXXX, *Account name : # XXXX. However, they stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681 ( 5 ) they are suppose to modify accounts that isn't reporting correctly.

15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

On XX/XX/2019 I had sent a letter there certified mail to Experian concerning previously disputed items. I had sent it certified to ensure it was received. The letter requested the method of verification and name of person contacted along with any documentation with my signature showing I have a legally binding obligation to the debt. According to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) 9B ( iii ) I have the right to receive " a description of the procedure used ''. 

I received a letter dated XX/XX/19 from Experian which did not meet any of my request. It stated that everything was verified by the furnisher and will not be reinvestigated. A copy of my report was sent to verify no changes made. 

These items should not be on my report and needs to be deleted. E-Oscar is an unacceptable form of investigations and case law verifies that it is an unreasonable method of investigating. FCRA states the investigations must be reasonable. If they are unwilling to cooperate correctly then I will be forced to take legal actions. I am in strong hopes that it won't be necessary and they will see there errors and submit to my requests in the letter I had sent them through certified mail.

Company: PNC Bank N.A. (NJ)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed an unauthorized transaction of {$470.00} pending on my account. I called PNC and told them I did not authorize that transaction, so Im requesting that they not pay it. They said there is nothing they can do until the payment is posted. I waited overnight for the payment to post, and hoped they would have listened to my request, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY IN MY ACCOUNT TO PAY THE TRANSACTION. Any reasonable person would have thought that if the customer called in about the transaction, and said they didnt authorize it, AND there is NOT SUFFICIENT FUNDS TO PAY THE TRANSACTION, AND, the BANK HAS THE DESCRETION OF RETURNING THE ITEM, as they have done in the past, why would the bank choose to go ahead and pay it with THEIR FUNDS,, then CHARGE ME ALL KINDS OF FEES, and put my account into a state of overdraft. 

PNC HAS THE DESCRETION OF EITHER PAYING OR RETURNING AN ITSM, FOR WHICH THERE IS NOT SUFFICIENT FUNDS. PNC CHOSE TO PAY IT, EVEN AGAINST MY WISHES, WHICH THEY KNEW ABOUT BEFORE POSTING THE TRANSACTION. 

I called and filed the dispute after the transaction was posted and the bank told me they can not do any conditional credit until the 10 days it takes to process the dispute, while PNC Bank will charge me DAILY fees until they resolve the dispute! Now ALL my scheduled transactions will be returned, including my car insurance, just because PNC decided to use their funds to pay a transaction I told them I did not authorize, and there was no money in my account to pay it and my account is messed up. 

PNC could have issued the conditional credit, and I could have deposited the smaller amount the account would have been overdrawn by, and my account would have been fine. Now, I do not have the use of my account because PNC decided to use their money to pay a transaction I alerted them about.
