Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

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 these. 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 XXXX, Stevenson v. TRW ( Experian ), and Richardson v. Fleet, 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 creditor/CA 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.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Against Equifax for Failure to Correct Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting Dear CFPB I am filing a formal complaint against Equifax for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for the account with XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX. Despite multiple requests for correction dated XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, the inaccuracies persist, violating provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 
Account Details : High Balance : {$38000.00} Date of Last Activity : XX/XX/XXXX Date Reported : XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX and XXXX ), XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  ( Equifax ) Balance Owed : {$0.00} Account Status : Closed Payment Status : Current Account Type : Auto Loan Payment Frequency : Monthly Two-Year Payment History : Equifax : Late payments reported from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX & XXXX : Late payments reported from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 
These late payment entries are inaccurate and conflict with the actual payment history I provided in my previous disputes. 
FCRA Violations : Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i, credit bureaus are required to ensure the accuracy of the information in consumer files. Despite providing evidence to correct these inaccuracies, Equifax failed to conduct a reasonable investigation and update my credit report accordingly.

TILA Violations : 15 U.S. Code 1666b mandates that creditors send periodic statements at least 21 days before the payment due date. The reported late payments suggest noncompliance with this requirement, resulting in harm to my creditworthiness.

Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) : This act reinforces the responsibility of creditors to provide accurate and timely statements to prevent unfair penalties. The continued inaccurate reporting indicates noncompliance. 
Desired Resolution : I am formally requesting the following actions : Immediate removal of the late payment notations for this account from my credit report with XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. 
Written confirmation of the corrections made to my credit file. 
Failure to resolve this matter promptly will compel me to escalate my complaint, including pursuing legal action and filing additional grievances with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and other relevant agencies. 
Thank you for addressing this matter promptly. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I recently received my credit report, and some inaccuracies are reported to my credit file. I am distressed because I gave XXXX, XXXX, and Experian notice that they were unlawfully reporting inaccuracies to my file and my claim has been ignored. 
According to the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) and the accepted STANDARD of metro 2 data field reporting, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is not correct. When it comes to my credit report, I reserve the right to dispute any information that I deem to be inaccurate. I won't stand for any misinformation being associated with my name and financial history. If there's something on my credit report that doesn't seem right, credit reporting agencies can bet that I'll be taking action to get it removed. I can not recognize or accept the allegation of delinquency without factual proof. There must be some sort of evidence to back up the claim. Otherwise, I can not and will not recognize or accept the allegation. According to federal and state law, credit reporting agencies must report any allegations with the greatest compliance and accuracy possible. If credit reporting agencies do report such claims, they could be subject to fines or other penalties.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for the following account : Account Details : Account Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX High Balance : XXXX XXXX {$660.00}, XXXX : {$660.00}, Equifax XXXX {$500.00} Date of Last Verified : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  Date of Last Activity : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX Date Reported : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  Date Opened : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX/Equifax : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Owed : {$0.00} Account Status : Closed Payment Status : Current Two-Year Payment History : Late payments noted for XXXX ( 30 days late ) and XXXX ( 60 days late ) for XXXX  Despite multiple requests for correction through disputes filed on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  and XX/XX/XXXX, the inaccurate information has not been corrected. This failure violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 
FCRA Violations Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i, credit reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy of the information in consumer files. The presence of late payment notations that are demonstrably inaccurate violates this mandate. Additionally, creditors are obligated to send accurate information to the credit bureaus as outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2.

Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) This act reinforces the need for creditors to send timely and accurate statements to prevent unfair penalties to consumers, which has not been adhered to in this case.

The continuous failure to address these inaccuracies has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness, affecting my ability to secure credit and financial opportunities.

Desired Resolution : Immediate removal of the inaccurate late payment notations from my credit report.

Written confirmation of the correction within 15 business days. 
If this issue is not resolved promptly, I will escalate my complaint to include legal action and additional complaints with other relevant regulatory agencies.
