Complaint narrative:
Whoever at Experian is reading this, please read carefully. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX does not read nor address. I am hoping Experian will start reading. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) & Experian should stop playing childish games and focus for a time to get the following addressed. XXXX attached response is incorrect as follows : XXXX ) The attached letter reflects XXXX did not have permissible permission to access my credit report in XXXX XXXX and offered to remove inquiry from XXXX years ago. 
XXXX ) This is STUPID because XXXX is aware that an inquiry is not on a credit report XXXX years later but I am sure there is some low paid or illiterate employee that laughed by sending the attached letter. 
XXXX ) XXXX references in attached letter that inquiry was XX/XX/2017 when attached permissible permission is dated XX/XX/2017. 
XXXX ) XXXX and Experian did not have permission to release my information on XX/XX/2017 but received a forged app the next day. 

This is absolute proof that my credit report was pulled prior to any permission. I have always contested that the XXXX loan was fraudulent. But when I say fraudulent, XXXX then requires more of my personal information when they hadnt any right to have my information in the first place!!! And I refused and chose to protect my information from XXXX companies that are totally unorganized. I have sent sheriffs reports, information of the thief who is in the attached application, etc etc etc but Experian and XXXX are to unorganized, illiterate, or playing too many games to conduct professional business.

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Aldous & Associates, PLLC
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, I received a XXXX credit alert from XXXX and XXXX  that a new account has been added. I was surprised because my credit has been frozen for a year and I have not applied for any new credit. When I logged into XXXX, I noticed that Aldous and Associates, a collection agency, had been added to my credit file in the amount of {$76.00} for XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I immediately disputed this as I have NEVER had a gym membership in XXXX nor have I ever received any bill or notification in the mail for this amount. I suspect someone took out a membership in my name. I immediately filed a dispute with XXXX, but when I called XXXX  they said they could not locate the collections on my report, yet it was added to XXXX  and then later on to XXXX, both credit monitoring services for XXXX. This is very upsetting to me because it is not my debt, I have never had a membership for XXXX XXXXXXXX in XXXX, nor have I received any information or warning from XXXX XXXX or Aldous and Associates before this was added to my report. If I knew that a debt was being collected in my name, I could have worked this out with XXXX XXXX to explain that this is not my debt and something is wrong. Now, my credit score has taken a significant hit. I checked my XXXX  and XXXX reports and this collections account is not there, but I am worried it will fraudulently be added to those accounts as well. I work VERY hard to maintain a good credit score and have never paid any bill late or had any kind of negative mark on my account. This is very upsetting to me considering it is not even my debt and I never received anything in the mail notifying me that XXXX  XXXX was trying to collect a debt, let alone one that is not mine.
