TRANSUNION is reporting an inaccurate late payment for the XXXX  XXXX XXXX account ending in XXXX. This includes a 30 day late payment posted in XX/XX/2023.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Regarding the fraudulent account under my name, with an outstanding balance of {$2200.00}. Despite my earlier communications and provision of necessary documentation, including an identity theft report, this matter remains unresolved. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I reiterate my right to have inaccurate information removed from my credit report. The failure to address this issue is not only distressing but also a clear violation of FCRA regulations. I once again request an immediate investigation into this account and the removal of all associated negative information from my credit report. 

I had hoped that this issue would have been resolved promptly and am disappointed at the need for repeated requests. Please consider this letter a formal notice that, if this matter is not resolved satisfactorily within 30 days of receipt of this letter, I will have no choice but to escalate the issue. This will include filing a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal advice. 

I trust that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX will address this issue with the seriousness it deserves and provide a swift resolution. I am enclosing copies of my previous dispute letters and all relevant documents for your reference.

Once I paid the account I immediately disputed the account with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX as paid in full. The account was opened on my credit report XX/XX/XXXX and the debt was bought by RS Clark & Associates. However, since I had to ability to pay the original creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX ) I did. 

On XX/XX/XXXX my dispute came back as the information regarding this debt being accurate ; meaning that I still owed this debt, when in fact I did not. I then called RS Associates on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX to inquire as to why this debt was still on my credit report and being reported as unpaid. The representative proceeded to tell me that because I paid the original creditor and not them, they would have to get confirmation from the original creditor that the balance was in fact paid in full and that could take up to 45 business days. They refused to take any of the confirmation information I had in regards to the payment status of this debt, citing that it could be fraudulent. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received an alert that RS Associates had updated this account on my credit report and falsely reported it as late/delinquent, have already had prior knowledge that this account was in fact paid in full.
