Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my FICO score.

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing in desperation regarding an issue that has been dragging on for about XXXX years now, and I am at a complete loss as to what to do. There are old accounts on my credit report that I know for a fact are not mine. I have tried to resolve this over and over, but it feels like no one is listening to me. I originally disputed these accounts several years ago and requested a response in writingyet, I never received XXXX. I even took the extra step of filing my appeal online, thinking that might help, but I still got no response. Each time I call, Im told a response is on the way. The last time I called was about XXXX months ago, and stillnothing. Ive spoken to multiple representatives, and they all say the same thing, but nothing ever happens. Its like Im caught in an endless loop of promises that lead nowhere. Im old, and I dont understand how this has gone on for so long without any resolution. Im confused, Im frustrated, and frankly, Im starting to feel desperate. How can a company responsible for ensuring the accuracy of reports allow such glaring mistakes to go unresolved for years? Ive done everything I can, and I just dont know what else to do at this point. Please, I need this matter addressed. I am requesting a prompt and clear response in writing as soon as possible. I dont want to feel like Im shouting into the void anymore.

Complaint narrative:
This debt collector has engaged in practices that violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). They have reported an account that I did not consent to, and there is no signed agreement from me authorizing it. A valid legal contract requires the signatures of both parties, and I was not involved in such an agreement. Furthermore, they failed to adhere to the proper 5-step validation process as mandated by the FDCPA. These actions clearly infringe upon my rights under the law, and I am entitled to compensation for these violations. I demand the immediate removal of this accountfrommyrecord.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute Regarding Unauthorized Credit Inquiry and Notice of Intent to Sue for Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized inquiry placed on my credit report by your company. Your company pulled my credit report on XX/XX/year>, and added a hard inquiry under [ Credit Bureau : XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX ], yet no credit was ever extended to me. This unauthorized action is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

FCRA Violation : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( f ), you are legally required to have a permissible purpose to access my credit report. Since no credit was ever extended to me, you did not have legal grounds to pull my credit report, and your inquiry was unauthorized. As a result, you have violated my rights under the FCRA, and I am entitled to {$1000.00} in statutory damages per violation under 15 U.S.C. 1681n.
