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

Complaint narrative:
I am reporting inaccurate credit reporting by Equifax and Experian regarding an old account from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

This account was closed on XX/XX/XXXX and is correctly reported on TransUnion as closed with a {$0.00} balance and no charge-offs after that date. 

However, Equifax and Experian are reporting false dates, including : A last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX, which is impossible because the account was closed in XX/XX/XXXX Ongoing charge-off status into XXXX A status update listed as XX/XX/XXXX, which is also incorrect This is a violation of FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 5 ), which prohibits re-aging of accounts. It is damaging my credit score unfairly.

I have disputed this with the bureaus, and Equifax failed to respond properly. I have screenshots from all three bureaus to prove the inconsistencies.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information I have found on my credit report, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request that such information be blocked or removed immediately. I am attaching a copy of my Identity Theft Report issued by the FTC ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX ) as evidence of my claim. 
According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as a result of such theft within four ( 4 ) business days. 
The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked : NAME / ACCOUNT NUMBER XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I respectfully request that this account be immediately blocked from my credit report. This block should remain in effect for a period of one year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no information may be reported. 
I have contacted TRANSUNION multiple times to report these accounts, but I have not received a clear or definitive resolution to help me resolve this situation. This situation is severely affecting me as I am trying to purchase a new home for my children and obtain financial tools to support my economic growth. Having these negative accounts on my credit report has blocked all my opportunities and is causing me personal and financial harm. 
These accounts have already been removed and were not verified by other credit agencies, so I do not understand why this agency continues to assert that these accounts belong to me. 
I have requested copies of the contracts related to these accounts from the reporting company, and after more than 60 days, I have not received any response. I respectfully request your assistance in removing these accounts immediately.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unfair Credit Card Account Closure Despite Clean History What happened : I am filing this complaint regarding the closure of my Citi XXXX XXXX XXXX card ( ending in XXXX ). 

I have always maintained a perfect payment history with Citi and have never made a late payment. In XX/XX/year>, I made a payment to Citi from an external account I do not normally use and, due to an oversight on my part, the payment was returned for insufficient funds. However, I immediately made multiple large payments to Citi from my primary account after this error, demonstrating my intent and ability to pay. 

Without notifying me in advance, Citi automatically retried the payment multiple times without my authorization, resulting in multiple failed attempts. This led to an automatic account closure despite my clean payment history, recent large payments, and lack of prior issues. 

I contacted Citi, explained the honest mistake, and requested that my account be reopened. Citi refused, stating the multiple returned payments as the reason, despite my immediate corrective actions and consistent payment history. 



Why this is a problem : I was not given an opportunity to stop or prevent these automatic payment retries.

Citis automatic process caused repeated failures, which I could not control.

I made prompt payments afterward to correct the issue.

The closure negatively impacts my credit utilization and potentially my credit score, which is unfair given my responsible history.

What I am requesting : 1. Reopening of my Citi XXXX XXXX XXXX card account.

2. Removal of any negative reporting related to this incident from my credit report.

3. A clear explanation of why multiple automatic payment attempts were made without my consent and how this aligns with fair consumer practices. 

I appreciate the CFPBs assistance in resolving this matter fairly.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed a dispute letter to TransUnion regarding inaccurate reporting on a charged-off XXXX XXXX credit card account with a balance of {$18000.00}. The account was closed in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  by the credit grantor, yet TransUnion continues to report the account with serious inaccuracies. 

Specifically : TransUnion reports the account as In Collections/Charge-Off and continues to show derogatory status or delinquency monthly through XXXX, despite the charge-off occurring in XXXX. 

The full balance is listed as past due, which is false, as the account has been written off and no longer generates monthly statements. 

The monthly payment field is left blank instead of being updated to {$0.00}, which is required under Metro 2 for charged-off accounts.

There is no Date of First Delinquency ( DoFD ) shown, violating FCRA 605 ( c ).

This inaccurate and incomplete reporting creates the false impression of ongoing missed payments and damages my credit standing.
