Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I sent a letter to Experian to update my personal information. I then received letter back from them on XX/XX/2023 stating they weren't sure if I was the one submitting to claim, so them I responded to their letter and provided their letter verifying it was in fact me requesting the update of my personal information. On XX/XX/2023 i then received the same exact stall letter once again denying to update my information. I submitted proof of identity as well as the original letter they submitted to me. This to me is another stall tactic for them to not move forward with my updates and reports which is against the FCRA. I have sent them 2 letters within timely manner for the updates which they still refuse to update.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, On XX/XX/2023 I sent certified letters asking the credit reporting agencies to verify inaccuracies on my credit report and send me proof. Over 30 days has past now and these items are still reporting inaccurately on my credit report. How are these accounts verified if the date of last activity, date of last reporting, date of opened and among other things are completely wrong? This is a clear violation of my rights!!! 

The accounts are : XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The FCRA requires CRAs to take reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information in consumer credit reports. This includes conducting a reasonable investigation when a consumer disputes information on their credit report. However, in my case, the CRA has failed to properly investigate my dispute and continues to report inaccurate information on my credit report. 

I believe that this constitutes a violation of my rights under the FCRA, and I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau take action to ensure that the CRA corrects the inaccuracies on my credit report and complies with its obligations under the FCRA. 

If the CRA fails to properly investigate a dispute and continues to report inaccurate information, the consumer may have a claim under the FCRA for " negligent reporting. '' In such cases, the consumer may be entitled to damages, including actual and statutory damages, as well as attorney 's fees.

Additionally, if the CRA knowingly or recklessly reports inaccurate information, the consumer may have a claim under the FCRA for " willful noncompliance. '' In such cases, the consumer may be entitled to statutory damages of up to {$1000.00}, as well as attorney 's fees.

I attached all evidence and supporting documents. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
