Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This correspondence serves as a formal follow-up and final notice regarding your continued noncompliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), despite my previous dispute dated XX/XX/XXXX. To date, you have failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation of the disputed account listed below, nor have you provided the legally required verification documentation in response to my demand under FCRA 611 ( a ). 

Let me remind you that under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 5 ), you are obligated to complete a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information and to delete or modify any unverifiable data. Additionally, under FCRA 623 ( b ), data furnishers must investigate and report the results of the reinvestigation to the credit reporting agency in a timely and accurate manner. Your failure to do so not only undermines the integrity of the credit reporting system but also exposes your organization to significant legal liability under FCRA 617 for damages resulting from your willful or negligent noncompliance. Despite my prior request, you have not produced any of the following : XXXXA copy of the original creditor agreement bearing my signature ( if applicable ) ; XXXXRecords or communications used to verify the accuracy of the disputed information ; XXXXDocumentation outlining your reinvestigation procedure and final findings. 

Without this verification, continued reporting of inaccurate information violates FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ), which explicitly requires deletion if information can not be verified. 

Continued Noncompliance Legal Implications You are now in a clear pattern of willful noncompliance. I remind you of the precedent set in : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) where failure to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation was held as willful noncompliance ; XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) where damages were awarded due to inaccurate reporting and failure to properly reinvestigate. 

I reserve all rights to pursue monetary damages, including : Statutory damages up to {$1000.00} per violation ; Punitive damages for willful noncompliance ; Compensation for actual damages, including emotional distress and credit denials ; Legal fees and court costs, if litigation becomes necessary.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

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.
