Consumer complaint received 2017-09-15
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 — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NH)

EXPERIAN I have sent certified letters on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX asking them to remove the unverified accounts listed here : ( XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX - {$XXXX} and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$XXXX} ), that remain on my credit report in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681. They are required under the FCRA to have properly verified the accuracy of an account listed on my credit report. In the results of each of their re-investigations, they stated that they verified that these items are being reported correctly. 

Where are the documents that they used to verify these accounts? What is the name of the person in their company who verified these accounts? What documents did they use to verify them? I have asked them to provide me with the name of that individual, their business address, and telephone number. 

XXXX Law Dictionary, 9th Edition, 2009, defines Verify as, 1 ) " To prove to be true ; to confirm or establish the truth or truthfulness of ; to authenticate. '' 2 ) to confirm or substantiate by oath or affidavit ; to swear to the truth of. '' and Verification as, Confirmation of correctness, truth or authenticity, by affidavit, oath, or deposition. Affidavit of truth of a matter stated and object of verification is to assure good faith in averments or statements of a party. 

This means that their company must be willing and able to produce a document in their files that proves the account ( s ) in dispute belong to me and the information being reported is accurate and they must be able to do this in a court of law if I file a lawsuit against them. Someone in their company must authenticate the documents in their files that were used to verify the disputed accounts and to do this they must have 1st hand knowledge of the alleged account ( s ) and all that has ever transpired for the alleged account ( s ), under oath and under the penalty of perjury. 

As I am sure that they are well aware, current Federal case law states that, Consumer Reporting Agencies bear grave responsibilities to ensure the accuracy of the accounts they report on and their responsibility must consist of something more than merely parroting information received from other sources. The Courts have also ordered that a Reinvestigation that merely shifts the burden back to the consumer and the credit grantor can not fulfill the obligations imposed by 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). 

They have ignored my requests to provided me with the documents that they have in their files that they used to verify the disputed accounts which means that they have NOT verified or they can not verify any of these accounts and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA they are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. 

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncompliance ( Section 617 ) if they fail to comply with this Federal Law
