Complaint narrative:
This is now my THIRD time mailing you about some unverifiable inquiries on my credit report. To recap what I have done so far : 1. I have contacted the creditors directly ( multiple times ), and all have failed to provide ANY form of verification, authorization, or proof of permissible purpose 2. I have contacted multiple times informing you of this, and you too have failed to verify these inquiries Since neither or the creditors are able to provide this proof, I am requesting that you abide by the Fair Credit Reporting Act and remove these fraudulent, inaccurate, and unverifiable inquiries that do not have any permissible purpose. If you fail to do so, I will be lodging a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and detailing your neglect regarding this very serious issue. Please remove the following inquiries from my credit report immediately : EQUIFAX : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I repeat, if these inquiries are not removed immediately, then my next step will be mailing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to complain about your mishandling of this issue. I have documentation of all correspondence with as well as the creditors, and will be forwarding that evidence to the CFPB if these inquiries are not promptly removed. I have been very cordial and cooperative throughout this dispute process and trust you will take this matter seriously. I FILED IT WITH TWO FTC REPORT

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Experian for continuing to report a charge-off account from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Account No. XXXX ) that was never legally validated and violates multiple federal laws. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, the furnisher XXXX XXXX responded to my prior dispute by stating they would not provide any new documentation, as they had already responded on XX/XX/XXXX. However, neither of those responses included proper validation under FCRA and FDCPA. There was no signed contract, no itemized statement, and no proof of ownership. 
Most importantly, the furnisher admitted the account was charged off to {$0.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX, yet no IRS Form 1099-C was issued or denied, which is a violation of IRS Code 26 U.S.C. 6050P. If a charge-off exceeds {$600.00}, it must be reported to the IRS.

I explained this clearly to Experian in my previous dispute, and attached documentation showing that the account lacked legal validation and tax compliance. Still, Experian closed the dispute without addressing any of these legal deficiencies and continued to report the balance as collectible.

This is a clear violation of : FCRA 1681i ( a ) : failure to reinvestigate disputed information reasonably and in good faith.

FCRA 1681e ( b ) : failure to ensure maximum possible accuracy of reported data.

FCRA 1681n and 1681o : willful and negligent noncompliance with federal law.

Experian is also reporting an inaccurate address ( " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' ) that was never used by the furnisher for correspondence, while XXXX XXXX used my correct address in all letters. 
This ongoing reporting of unverifiable, unvalidated, and tax-noncompliant data is deceptive and materially harmful to me as a consumer. I respectfully request the CFPB to instruct Experian to : Delete this account from my credit report ; Remove the false address ; Confirm whether a 1099-C was ever issued, and if not, cease all reporting of the charge-off.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX XXXX Code XXXX ) says ( XXXX ) 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 TILA XXXX Code XXXX since I was never XXXX. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed XXXX payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER XXXX. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission id-entity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items. 


I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any.

information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.
