Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I have sent multiple letters to XXXX for the last year. I have made numerous amounts of phone calls to them about updating my credit report. Removing inaccuracies and accounts that violate FCRA laws and 15 U.S. Code 1681c2 - Block of information resulting from identity theft. They have no removed any debt at all or none of the personal information I requested to be removed. 

Also, for them to update my credit report accurately, they want me to get a membership with them to update my credit report and allow me to see an accurate report with them. This is a scam set up to steal money from the consumer. And not allowing me to see an accurate credit report or update my credit report so I can pursue buying a home or getting a car loan.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

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:
This company National Recovery Agency, in direct violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692d, has harassed and oppressed me using fraud. By the use of criminal means, they have damaged my reputation as well as my ability to obtain consumer credit, further diminishing my faith in the banking system. They have stolen my identity using my social security number in violation of 42 USC 408. 42 USC Sec. 408 provides that : *Whoever ... ( 8 ) discloses, uses, or compels the disclosure of the social security number of any person in violation of the laws of the United States ; shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction thereof shall be fined under title 18 or imprisoned for not more than five years, or both. '' Theyve failed to remedy this fraud. In violation of 15 USC 1692b and 15 USC 1692c, Nation Recovery Agency has communicated with me at a place that is inconvenient. As Ive advised them, in writing, that I refuse to pay this fraudulent claim and that I wish no further communication continues between them and I, they are still reporting this claim to credit reporting agencies in direct violation of Federal law. I have no valid contract with this company, nor do I have a contract with the company they've claimed to assume the debt from. This company has failed to produce a valid contract for either company. I demand they cease all communications, as I am litigious, and they are liable for damages for openly violating the law.
