Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I opened a credit card with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, when I was a minor. In XX/XX/XXXX, I called to pay the outstanding debt on the account, which had already been marked as a charge off. However, after several disputes with XXXX, the company informed me that a new account had been opened to manage the debt, claiming that since I was of legal age in XXXX, the original contract was valid. 

The new account was never explicitly communicated to me, and I did not authorize its opening. Furthermore, the new account is directly related to the original account, which was opened when I was a minor. Since I do not recognize this new account as valid and believe it is linked to the original account that was opened illegally, I request that the new account be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, I have attached a photo of the account as it appears on my credit report, which is different from the information provided by XXXX. This discrepancy further supports my claim that the new account is invalid and should be removed. 

I consider accounts XXXX and XXXX to be XXXX and the same, as they both originate from the same source and are directly related to each other. The new account opened by XXXX appears to be linked to the original account, and I believe they should be treated as a single account.

Complaint narrative:
I am making a complaint about ( KNIGHT ADJUSMENT BUREAU ) in XXXX, UTAH. 

Knight Adjustment Bureau has been harassing me about an amount that I do not owe. I've spoken with them multiple times requesting account statements, or contracts, showing my wet ink signature with Knight Adjustment Bureau. They have failed to respond accordingly. Knight Adjustment Bureau is reporting false collection amounts on my Credit Reports. Their website ( knightadj.com ) also does not reflect the owing balances they are reporting on my Credit Reports. Please reach out to me as soon as possible to discuss this matter.

Complaint narrative:
A billing and reporting error from my bank has unfairly damaged my credit. Under TILA ( 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) ), creditors must report payments accurately, yet a payment I made was not properly recorded, leading to an incorrect late mark on my report. Additionally, I was not given the required 21-day notice before the payment was due, making the late mark invalid. This inaccuracy violates federal law and is unjustly affecting my credit standing.

State: OH

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I dont even believe this to be my dad, I do believe this to be fraud for my past. Regardless of that we had already come to an agreement, they have not contacted me to make any payments, but I let them know I was going to be willing to set up a payment plan. 
They sent me what I believe to be paperwork to trick me to sign it, so they can send it to the court, and they are going to try to manipulate me into paying more than what we already agreed upon. 
This company is once again, making threats against me. 
They have not tried to properly contact me to set up a payment plan. 
They are threatening to put a lien on my property, I do not have any property though in my name. 
They are also threatening to try to make me pay more than what is owed, I have the proof in writing that payments were already made, and that I owe less than half of what they were originally trying to get me to pay. I also know for a fact that they were sending me fake court paperwork. 
They were also trying to manipulate me into signing documentation that they claimed they wouldve then sent to the court to cause me to pay more than what is actually owed. 
The remainder of the debt owed is only {$1000.00}, they pushed me to agree to {$1200.00} which is more than what is actually owed, and I agreed because they are so predatory and keep threatening me with court as well. 
At this point, I need to just get an attorney because I can not live like this any longer. 
I might have to file bankruptcy because of predatory companies like this.

Complaint narrative:
COMPLAINT ID XXXX " I am filing this complaint regarding an inaccurate item on my credit report that continues to negatively impact my credit. 
Despite my efforts to resolve this directly with the reporting agency, it remains unresolved. I request immediate investigation and removal of this item, as it is incorrect and does not reflect my true credit history. ' Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address the ongoing noncompliance of your agency in relation to my identity theft report, which I previously submitted in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) .I 'd like to emphasize that I am the one submitting this complaint and there is no third party involved. Despite having sent multiple letters, your agency has repeatedly rejected my identity theft report on the grounds that it was not filed by a law enforcement agency. This decision is not in compliance with the FCRA and fails to recognize the guidance provided by identitytheft.gov as mandated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). 

As you are aware, the FCRA at Section 605B and the guidance provided by the CFPB under XXXX clearly outline the process for filing an identity theft report. The CFPB specifically states that victims of identity theft can file a report directly through XXXX, which then becomes a valid identity theft report under the FCRA. Nowhere does the FCRA require this report to be submitted by law enforcement for it to be valid. 

Furthermore, under FCRA Section 617, your agency is legally required to investigate and resolve any identity theft dispute in a timely manner, and you are prohibited from deciding unilaterally what is valid or invalid when it comes to an identity theft report that has been properly filed. Your refusal to acknowledge this report based on your own standardsrather than what is set forth in federal lawis a clear violation of the FCRA. 

Legal Precedent : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ) : This case underscores the importance of proper handling of disputes related to credit reporting and emphasizes that credit reporting agencies can not disregard information simply based on their own internal policies when federal law mandates a specific process. 
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) : This case reinforced that credit reporting agencies must follow FCRA regulations, including investigating claims of identity theft in accordance with the law, and can not arbitrarily determine what constitutes an acceptable identity theft report. 
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX. XXXX XXXX ) : This decision clarified that a XXXX XXXX XXXX is obligated to accept documents submitted by the consumer, as long as they meet the legal requirements for disputing inaccurate information under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my credit report and found inaccurate late payment notations on my XXXX  account ( Account Number : XXXX ). All payments have been made on time, making these reports incorrect. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), furnishers must ensure the accuracy of reported data. Specifically, TransUnion and Experian incorrectly report a 30-day late payment for XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, as well as a 60-day late payment for XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. Equifax inaccurately reports 30-day late payments for XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, and 60-day late payments for XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. These errors should be corrected within 15 days of receipt. Additionally, I request documentation verifying compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which requires that periodic statements be delivered at least 21 days before the due date. Please provide the periodic statement and corresponding tracking number to confirm timely delivery. I have attached supporting documentation highlighting these inaccuracies.
