Complaint narrative:
I am writing to address the presence of unauthorized transactions in my consumer report, which I did not authorize or instruct. As a result, I formally request the blocking and removal of these accounts without any inaccuracies or misrepresentation of facts. Below, I have listed the specific accounts in question : It appears that your organization may be violating 15 U.S.C 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ), which prohibits a consumer report from solely containing information about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the entity reporting the information. 

This statute explicitly states that XXXX, as the reporting entity, should not include transactions or experiences associated with the line of credit extended between the consumer and the reporting entity in my consumer report. 

I urge you to promptly update my utilization to 5 % or below within 10 calendar days or remove all utilization from the mentioned accounts.

Furthermore, I request that you provide all documents on which you rely for reporting the referenced accounts, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ). The information you are reporting is damaging to my reputation and adversely affecting my creditworthiness.

Therefore, I demand the removal of these accounts from my file within 30 days, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), or verification of these accounts.

Additionally, along with the removal of erroneous and unverified information, kindly eliminate all non-account holding inquiries older than 30 days.

Failure to provide a satisfactory response with the deletion of the mentioned utilization and inquiries will result in legal action against your company, for which I will seek {$1000.00} per violation : Defamation of Character Civil Liability Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C 1681 violations for willful noncompliance - 616.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In light of recent developments, it has been brought to my attention that the creditor failed to furnish the required XXXX notice along with a statement, which would have allowed sufficient time for payment processing and thus, prevented any late payments from occurring on these accounts. This oversight has led to a misrepresentation of the payment status, suggesting a billing error on the part of the creditor. 

In response to this discrepancy, I kindly request tangible evidence from the creditor 's bank account, demonstrating any instances of non-payment that purportedly resulted in the reported late status. This evidence is essential for clarifying the circumstances surrounding the alleged late payments and verifying the accuracy of the reported information.
