Complaint narrative:
I have made numerous of attempts with EXPERIAN CREDIT BUREAU to have these heinous accounts removed from my credit file! Each time I receive a closed complaint with no updates to my report, no explanations after requested verification multiple times. If this is not addressed I will be reaching out to a lawyer and filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. This is ridiculous, I am a victim of identity theft. Someone has stolen my identity and opened accounts without my consent or knowledge! It saddens me that Experian isnt even looking into the ongoing disputes that I send them. My family has had to jump around a lot from home to home due to personal short comings, losing our home several years back. We've had to stay with family members, family friends and sometimes sheltering for multiple days at a time. I lost a lot of my personal information during this process. In the midst of it all someone has opened multiple accounts in my name and with my information my credit has been ruined and used without my consent to open accounts i didnt give permission for. I am unable to use my credit for essential things that I need like an apartment, phone, or even personal loans to make ends meet. I am devestated and saddened to know that someone has done this to me. Please help with assisting to getting these items removed from my credit file. I know my rights as a consumer.
