Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I sent a dispute letters to Experian requesting proof that they had verified an account on my credit report prior to reporting the information. Since that time I have sent 3 additional letters requesting this data, which they have not provided.

Consumers are entitled to review the original sources of the information reported, including originating documentation. Since no information at all has been provided by the bureau, it is impossible to verify that these accounts are being reported accurately.

Please direct Experian to promptly remove the unverified items from my credit report until they can verify their legitimacy.

I have attached copies of all letters sent, along with receipts from the U.S. Postal Service indicating the mailing dates and the date they were received by the credit bureau, along with copies of all correspondence I have received from the bureau. 

Thank you very much for your help.

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX Phone : XXXX Email : XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring a serious matter to your attention concerning erroneous collections that have appeared on my credit report. I recently discovered the presence of these collections, and to my utmost surprise, I have no knowledge or information about the debts in question. I firmly believe that these collections have been inaccurately reported and are negatively impacting my creditworthiness. 

I am invoking my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 609, which grants me the right to request validation of any debt that is being reported on my credit file. Section 609 of the FCRA stipulates that upon my request for debt validation, the credit reporting agency and the collection agency must provide me with specific information to verify the legitimacy and accuracy of the debt. 

The erroneous collections I am disputing are listed as follows : Collection Agency Name : Transworld Systems I Account Number : Unknown Amount of Debt : XXXX Date of First Delinquency : Unknown, it just appeared on my credit report I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter thoroughly and intervene to ensure that these erroneous collections are removed from my credit report promptly. I kindly ask that you initiate the validation process under Section 609 of the FCRA on my behalf and require the collection agency to provide the necessary documentation to substantiate the validity of the debt. 

I am concerned about the potential harm to my creditworthiness and financial stability due to these inaccuracies. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that you keep me informed of the progress of your investigation. Please feel free to contact me at XXXX or via email at XXXX, if you require any further information from my end. 

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this issue. I trust that your intervention will help rectify this situation and restore the accuracy of my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX XXXX
