Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
When reviewing my credit report, I found several accounts listed in my name that do not belong to me. According to the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 611 ( a ) [ 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ], these disputed items must be investigated or deleted from my credit record within 30 days. The items I am disputing must be removed from my credit report as the mere reporting of items prior to debt validation constitutes collection activity. I have contacted the Federal Trade Commission and filed a police report. I am demanding that you remove all inaccurate accounts from my credit profile in the next five ( 5 ) days or I will have no other recourse but to file an injunction against your agency under 617a1 which makes you financially liable for each inaccurate account. Also, under 616 Section A liability for willful non-compliance, your agency has yet to respond to my questions and statements of the Law. I request that you immediately investigate this matter and provide a detailed report of how this information was verified. If the account ( s ) can not be verified, I demand that you remove them from my credit file promptly, as required by law.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against the Credit Reporting Agencies ( CRAs ) for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), which governs the permissible purpose of furnishing consumer reports.

The FCRA explicitly states : " A consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' I DID NOT provide any written authorization or written instructions to the CRAs to report or share my consumer report information. Despite this, my information has been disclosed, which constitutes a clear violation of the law.

Transunion have violated my consumer rights. I am attempting to settle this inaccurate matter privately, NOW. I received a copy of my credit report and noticed account ( s ) that needs to be immediately DELETED. It is as follows : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
For the past 2 months I have been being charged multiple overdraft fees. The bank is taking every opportunity to ignore me while I try to seek help then lie to me saying I dont qualify for my money back. They will not direct me to a supervisor instead they end the conversation. Instead of helping the issue they just charge me more overdraft fees and I cant afford to be losing all this money. I told them to close my account and they wont. I feel very mistreated.

Company: Credit Control, LLC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
am filing this complaint against both XXXX  and Credit Control LLC regarding an inaccurate and damaging credit report entry. 

I paid off the account held with Credit Control LLC in full on [ insert payment date ], but my XXXXXXXX  credit report still shows it as unpaid or not updated. This has caused an unfair drop in my credit score.

I believe Credit Control LLC failed to report the updated status to Equifax, and Equifax failed to ensure the accuracy of this data. I have attached proof of my payment and a screenshot of my XXXX credit report showing the error. 



This inaccuracy is causing harm to my financial progress and credit-building efforts. Please take action swiftly.
