Product: Credit reporting — 
Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation — Problem with statement of dispute
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I 'm complaining against this company for many reasons : # 1 I received documents after my FIRST dispute stating that they will no longer investigate any of the accounts that I disputed which is a violation of section 1681 - Congress states that once I notify the CRA 's that there are inaccuracies, they are required to investigate and provide results within 30 days. I continue to receive this same statement even though I clearly list my disputes and label what I is not accurate # 3 There are accounts that have had no udpates since 2015 which clearly shows that there have been no investigations whatsoever # 4 I 've requested the documents that they are using to verify these accounts as allowed under section 609 - Consumer disclosures - all documents contained in my files - Congress states that the bureaus are required to have these documents prior to reporting the accounts to ascertain that this information is valid, accurate and complete which means that there should be NO problem sending this information to me. Congress also states that the only legal form of verification is firsthand knowledge - that means that they must either be the actual creditor themselves or have the physical documentation - I require this information immediately to pass on to my attorney *I 've included my dispute letters, credit report, identification

Complaint narrative:
I 've been battling for about a year now to get some accounts that were taken out in my name resolved. I 've sent this company 2 series of documents and what they 've required for my case. Still, am having issues with a creditor collection company on my report. XXXX. The other XXXX collections came off but this did n't. I 'm wondering if XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX pays this bureau under the table or just pays more than what is required but it makes me concerned. XXXX have received also 2 documents and I 've gotten XXXX response from them either. This bureau did respond just with notices of an alert. Also, there 's this judgment for {$910.00}? contested that bc I 'm never been evicted or sued or anything. 

I guess money makes the world go round but still I need help getting this resolved. Let me know if you need anything further but I 'll keep sending certified mail. 

thanks, XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Transunion about 3 months ago approximately in referenced to an unauthorized inquiry. I receive an alert from XXXX with an unauthorized inquiry from a company called XXXX on XX/XX/2016. I requested for Transunion to dispute which they refused and I am entitled to dispute any fraudulent information on my credit report. What is extremely upsetting, is that there were fraudulent inquiries on my credit report a few months ago and I was informed to contact the police department and they would extend the fraud alert to the extended fraud alert for seven years and it was not applied as informed. I called Transunion and submitted online the case number from the XXXX Police Department, case number XXXX Officer XXXX. This company should have contacted me if the fraud alert was applied. I am asking for the immediate removal of this fraudulent inquiry. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they informed me to dispute with Transunion,

I received my credit report XX/XX/XXXX because I had finally become financial able to buy my first home. I saw that XXXX XXXX XXXX was on my credit report saying I owed them {$990.00}. They were reporting on a XXXX XXXX credit card that I did not have. I disputed both accounts with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and all XXXX credit bureaus. Neither company nor credit bureaus will send me the proof proving I owe the money even after disputing this account for a total of 3 months. I would like for both companies and the XXXX bureaus to send me proof, such as a customer agreement I signed or some kind of promissory note with my signature, ID, and social security card proving its my debt. I would like a detail response as to how the information is being verified, and I would like a detailed payment history, if not I would like for the company and all three credit bureaus to remove the incorrect information from my report.

Complaint narrative:
My complaint involves XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I applied for an auto loan through XXXX, and shortly after I received a call from XXXX XXXX ( not sure of spelling ; her direct line is XXXX ) at XXXX XXXX ( XXXX of XXXX ) preferred dealers. I was told that I had been approved ( APPROVED, not PRE-APPROVED ) for a {$35000.00} car loan with no money down, but they could only discuss details such as LTV ratios or interest rates with me in person. She assured me they had a lender with an approval. I arrived at the dealership, and was immediately asked to fill out a credit app - I was told this was to make sure I was who I said I was. They ASSURED me that they would not run my credit or submit to any banks. Then they appraised my trade and the sales guy said he could n't tell me how much they were offering because his boss keep that all secret. Next, they tell me I can no longer get the used XXXX I wanted due to the LTV and would have to get a new Altima. At this point I had to get back to work, and the plan was for me to return to the dealership around XXXX to finalize the paperwork. At XXXX, I phoned the sales man, and he refused to tell me anything at all - not how much my trade was worth, or even a range of what my monthly payments might be. It 's an XXXX drive from my office, and I smelled a rat, so I decided not to return. I just got home from work and saw that the dealership out about XXXX hard inquiries to banks while I was in the waiting room earlier in the day. What a scam. They lied about the loan approval for the sole purpose of getting me in the door ( over an XXXX drive each way ). It appears to me they are running a special finance cattle call. 

Deceptive Trade Practices & False Advertisement - They never DID have a lender or an approval. My guess is they lied to get me in the door and figured they 'd find a way to sell me a car once i was physically there. 

Truth in Lending - They submitted credit applications to over XXXX banks. I 've asked for copies of what they sent to the banks regarding my applications, and was refused access. I am accusing them of submitting false credit applications on my behalf.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that erroneous data was placed on my account that did not belong to me. I called the creditor ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). XXXX XXXX admitted that the data was entered in error. He suggested that I talk to the Collection Agency ( XXXX ) ( file # XXXX XXXX and XXXX. XXXX. She indicated that she was not able to remove the erroneous data from my record. I then contacted TransUnion and XXXX and disputed the erroneous data. XXXX sent me a copy of my credit account and indicate that the account is scheduled to continue on record until XX/XX/XXXX. They have not, as of this date, removed the erroneous data. Each individual I talked with I begged that they remove the erroneous data as I am a XXXX student and I have been offered a XXXX position XXXX. However, this erroneous information has the potential to cause my employer to withdraw the offer. I stressed that this information may ruin my career XXXX before I even get started. I know that the credit reporting agencies ( transunion, XXXX, XXXX ) did not check the complete name, date of birth, and social security number before they entered this erroneous data on my record. I have never been treated in an emergency room in the United States in my life. I beg you to advocate and file this complaint on my behalf against all of the aforementioned credit reporting agencies as I am convinced that they do not care that they have entered erroneous data on my record. In addition, I feel that the aforementioned agencies do not care how this erroneous data will affect my life, including future employment. 
I graduate in XX/XX/XXXX and I do n't have money for an attorney, but I will be forced to ask my XXXX surviving parent to hire an attorney if this agency can not help me. You are my last hope to resolve this injustice.

Complaint narrative:
My wife XXXX XXXX went to apply for credit at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. We usually get 's a text message letting us know that we applied for credit. However, the inquiry went to my text message, and credit and not my wife 's credit. I do n't understand how my wife 's information with her social security number is going to my credit report. This should not be happening. I contacted the Credit Reporting agencies and they are not doing anything about it and they told me that it 's legal to merge our credit reports and I disagree with this. My wife is her own person, and I am my own person, our credit reports should not be merged at all. I want them to fix them immediately. This is affecting me and my husband 's credit report and obtaining credit. When I put my SSN in for credit it should not be reporting to my wife 's credit and her should not be reporting to my credit report. XXXX just recently changed my name to my wife 's name on my credit report, I do n't understand that. This is affecting both of us really bad. This is illegal, we never gave them authorization, to change my name to my wife 's name. I need all of this cleared up from happening again. This is causing us a lot of problems with our credit. I have so many inquiries that are not mines, and she has so many inquiries that are not hers. Please help us, someone must be accountable for this.
