Consumer complaint received 2020-12-28
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

Experian failed to conduct a reasonable investigation to ensure the " Maximum Possible Accuracy ''. Credit Reporting Agencies are not supposed to merely " Parrot '' what a data furnisher has provided, but to conduct an independent investigation to ensure that the information reported by the data furnisher is inaccurate and complete. I reviewed a current Experian Credit report ( # XXXX ) and it is evident that a reasonable investigation has not been conducted, but e-Oscar had been used to verify that the account is reporting accurate. So, I ' am providing evidence that the account could not be accurate or complete. 

My understanding is that the Metro 2 Format is the industry standard for reporting accurate, complete, and timely information and that The data should be reported according to the specified definitions in order to process credit information correctly. Please, tell me how you verified this account to be accurate and complete, and who it is that you verified it with. This is reported as charged off account and transferred/sold to THE BEST SERVICE COMPANY ( Account # XXXX ). However, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and account # XXXX is still reporting a current balance and past due balance on the account. This is evidence that a reasonable investigation has not been conducted to ensure the MAXIMUM POSSIBLE ACCURACY. Im providing you a copy of my recent credit report and see that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete information according your industry standards. To make it easier for you to I have drew circles and numbered the areas of focus. Im also, including the Metro 2 2020 guide information that I was able to find on line so that you will know exactly how the account is supposed to be reporting.
