Consumer complaint received 2022-03-12
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. (NY)

The credit bureaus are reporting negative information on my credit file without due diligence. They are using unverified information from a collection agency. The name of the collection agency is XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I put a dispute in and by law, the credit bureau should not be reporting negative information under investigation. They should have taken off until due diligence is taken. I sent a letter for validation to the collection agency and they continue to send me generic correspondences. I have sent certified mail with specific questions for them to answer because it is my constitutional right to know what the debt is and how much they paid to acquire said debt. Furthermore, I asked for any contractual agreement between me and said company XXXX XXXX. 
I also sent the credit bureau a certified letter stating my rights whereas they are reporting inaccurate information and should take it off my credit report because it is jeopardizing my ability to get a loan to help my children through college. 
It is an unfair practice for companies to be allowed to report negative information without proper validation. A statement ( a bill ) or a letter from originated creditor is not suffice as validation. I need for said companies to provide the law that states otherwise specifically. Also, would like for my certified letters to be answered directly and not given generic responses and still be liable for invalid information.

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. (MI)

I am filling this complaint because Experian has ignored my request to provide me the documents that their company has on file and was used to verify the account I am disputing. I have contact their offices on the following dates listed below : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA- they are required to promptly delete all information which can not be verified. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account information. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract and/or orgianl court docuemtns with my Signature on it ) you have on file. Your failure to positively verify this public record material has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. 

As a side note, this Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy was completed and paid back in XX/XX/XXXX the year is currently XX/XX/XXXX - that is 8 years on my credit report. That is also Thousands ( {$1000.00} ) and Thousands of dollars more I have paid for items I buy, loans I have missed out on, housing I have been declined for etc. I feel that having it on my credit report for 8 years is punishment enough. There is no law that states these types of things " by law '' have to stay on ones credit report for 7 or longer years. 

I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. I will seek every legal remedy available to me and file suit against the credit bureau responsible for reporting this violation. I urge you to take this extremely seriously as I have documented my case without error. 

I want Experian to stop reporting immediately this account on any and all of my credit reports issued to anybody whom inquires on my behalf. 

Please resolve this matter as soon as possible and thanks in advance for your time and consideration.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (GA)

I have had an account with Capital One for a long time I was late on my payments a lot but have for a while now been doing better and paying on time every month because I am about to purchase a house. I sent an email to the CEO to request that they forgive me of two late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2018 and I express that this was the only thing holding me back from home ownership. I had some financial difficulties at the beginning of the year it was really hard as I am a single mother. But I have bounced back and I am doing really well and paying my bills on time. I have seen Capital one give forgiveness with other members and they denied me saying they don't forgive late payments which would be untrue. I also have a credit card with Capital One that has been in good standing from the start and I have never been late. I would like to know why I wouldn't be eligible for this process and others are?

I am a victim of Identity Theft. I was advised by the FTC as to my rights as an Identity Theft victim. I sent in an affidavit and a valid police report. I was careful to include all fraudulent accounts and addresses which needed to be removed from my account. I was informed that the bureaus after receiving proper Identity Theft affidavit and police reports should according to FCRA laws, block these fraudulent accounts within 4 days. It has been several months and XXXX XXXX, Experian and XXXX are still reporting these fraudulent accounts on my profile. The law is very clear as to the civil liability and the remedy available to me ( section 616 and 617 ) if the Bureaus fail to comply with federal law. The bureaus have failed to comply with the FCRA laws and they have not blocked or removed these fraudulent accounts which were opened by a thief and not me. Please contact these bureaus about their illegal behavior and have then comply with federal law and respect the rights of Identity Theft victims, such as myself.
