Complaint narrative:
There are some obvious errors in some of my accounts. Please delete these items immediately. It looks like someone literally started a life using my information. I have always paid things in cash and was astounded when I had someone look at my credit. I had previously hired a credit repair company to handle this for me a couple months ago. However, I think they are used to dealing with clients who are ACTUALLY GUILTY. So, I am trying to handle this myself. At the very least please delete these items below until a thorough investigation has taken place. I can barely purchase a bottle of water with what my credit looks like now. I have attached my passport and ID to verify my identity. I assure you none of these accounts will have MY SIGNATURE. Any signatures you XXXX have is due to the person mentioned in the IDENTITY THEFT REPORT stealing my identity and literally starting a life with my information. This is not a Dispute Letter but a Letter of Suppression of the items stated below due to identity theft.

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. As in XXXX XXXX TransUnion, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the XXXX in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

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.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against EXPERIAN for inaccurately reporting late payments on my credit report. This is a direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666, which mandates that all information on a consumer report must be 100 % accurate, verifiable, and complete. Additionally, the credit bureaus ' failure to adhere to the Metro 2 guidelines further constitutes noncompliance. 

XXXX. Inaccurate Reporting : - The credit report dated XX/XX/year> from [ EXPERIAN ] contains inaccurate late payment entries for the account ( XXXX ) under the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
These entries are incorrect as I have never been late on these payments.

2. Violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666 : - Under 15 U.S. Code 1666, the credit bureaus are required to ensure that all reported information is accurate, verifiable, and complete. The inaccurate reporting of late payments violates this statutory requirement.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, under the leadership of its CEO, XXXX XXXX, shared a consumers personally identifiable financial information without the consumer 's authorization. This action deprived the consumer of the right to exercise nondisclosure options, constituting a potential case of aggravated identity theft.

1. 15 U.S. Code 6801 ( Protection of nonpublic personal information ) mandates that financial institutions protect the confidentiality of their customers ' nonpublic personal information.

2. 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ) requires financial institutions to provide customers with notice and the opportunity to opt out before sharing their personal information with non-affiliated third parties.

3. 18 U.S. Code 1028A ( Aggravated identity theft ) imposes penalties for knowingly transferring, possessing, or using another person 's identification information without lawful authority.

4. 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( i ) specifies that experiences between the consumer and the person making the report are excluded from the consumer report unless consent has been given. 
In this case, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is sharing the consumers personally identifiable financial information, including full name, Social Security number, account numbers, and transaction history, with non-affiliated parties XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX without obtaining the consumer 's explicit consent. This sharing of information occurred without providing the consumer with the required notice or an opportunity to opt out, as stipulated under 15 U.S. Code 6802.

The absence of an opt-out option and failure to notify the consumer is a breach of the protection rules outlined in 15 U.S. Code 6801 and 6802. Furthermore, the unauthorized dissemination of the consumers personal information may fall under aggravated identity theft, as defined in 18 U.S. Code 1028A, given the potential misuse of the consumer 's identity information without lawful authority.

Additionally, the consumer 's interactions and experiences with ABSOLUTXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, if shared without consent, contravene the provisions of XXXX XXXX Code XXXX ( XXXX ) ( i ), which excludes such experiences from consumer reports unless explicitly authorized.
