Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) 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 late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these accounts. It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because my credit reports show several unauthorized inquiries and personal information that I did not initiate or approve. These inquiries have appeared without my consent, and despite reaching out to the credit bureaus to have them removed, they remain on my reports. My disputes have been ignored or dismissed without proper investigation, leaving these inaccurate inquiries to negatively impact my credit score. This situation is both alarming and unjust, as these inquiries are not a result of any actions Ive taken.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Credit Reporting and Request for 1099-C Documentation To Whom It May Concern, I am disputing the accuracy of an account listed on my credit report under 15 USC 1681s-2 , which mandates the reporting of accurate and verifiable information. 

The account in question is as follows : Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX, XXXX  The balance currently being reported is inaccurate and potentially unlawful. XXXX XXXX v. XXXX XXXX XXXX, the issuance of a 1099-C form by a creditor indicates the occurrence of an identifiable event of debt cancellation. Under IRS regulations, Event Code 7 defines such an event as a discharge of indebtedness due to the creditors policy decision to cease collection activity and cancel the debt.

If a 1099-C form has been issued for this account, the debt has been canceled, and reporting a balance is inaccurate and misleading. I am requesting the following : Verification of the Account Balance : Provide evidence demonstrating that the balance is accurate and collectible.

Provision of the 1099-C Form : If issued, provide a copy to verify the identifiable event.

Immediate Deletion of the Account : If the debt was discharged under Event Code 7 or can not be verified, you are required to delete this negative information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Attached, you will find [ list of supporting documents ]. Please investigate this matter within the legally required 30-day timeframe. Failure to respond appropriately will result in further action. 

Thank you for your prompt attention. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

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 may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft.

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.
