Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information.

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
The immediate deletion of unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, as these are a blatant violation of my rights under federal consumer protection laws. I did NOT authorize these inquiries, and any record of them being on my credit report is not only misleading but also illegal!

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ), no one has the right to access my credit report without my expressed, written consent. For each of these unauthorized inquiries, I am requesting the method of verification under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) that these entities had permissible purpose to pull my credit. You are required to provide documentation showing my signature explicitly authorizing these inquiries. Since no such documentation exists, you are legally obligated to delete these items IMMEDIATELY. 

I am also aware of my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 15 U.S.C. 1681o, which detail the civil liabilities for negligent and willful non-compliance with the FCRA. If I do not see these inquiries permanently removed within 4 days of receipt of this letter, I will take legal action against your company and any third party involved for each individual violation. The statute allows for compensation of actual damages, attorney fees, and punitive damages. I will not hesitate to escalate this matter further if my rights continue to be violated.

Company: Opportunity Financial, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I trusted XXXX XXXX to handle my personal information with care and integrity, but I feel that trust has been violated. XXXX XXXX  claims that an investigation into my disputed information was conducted, yet I was never provided any details about how this investigation was carried out, who was involved, or what methods were used to verify the accuracy of the information. This lack of transparency not only raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of their process but also leaves me questioning whether they adhered to the legal standards required by law. Furthermore, I was never asked for or provided explicit consent for my personal data to be shared with third parties like XXXX. Sharing my private information without my clear and informed consent is a violation of my rights, and its both troubling and unacceptable. I deserve an explanation, evidence of proper consent, and assurance that my personal information is being handled lawfully and responsibly.

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

From XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX, I endured a challenging period in a XXXX  XXXX  relationship that lasted multiple years. During this time, several financial accounts were opened in my name without my consent, leading to significant financial distress. In light of these circumstances, I was forced to declare bankruptcy in XXXX, which has further complicated my efforts to rebuild my credit.
