State: CT

Complaint narrative:
Under the FDCPA and FCRA, verification is not just a name matchit is a sworn affidavit or certified statement of truth. Per 15 U.S.C. 1681n, your continued reporting without proper verification is willful noncompliance.

I demand proof of delivery of the initial dunning letter within 14 days of placing this account on my credit report, including a certified mail tracking number. If you can not provide this, you must delete this tradeline immediately and cease all collection activity, including reporting. 

I never had an account with XXXX XXXX, and you are neither the original creditor nor a valid assignee. Debt buyers are not creditors under the law. 

This account is still within the federal debt validation window, per 1006.34. Failure to comply will result in further action to seek justice for the harm caused.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute certain negative entries currently listed on my credit report. Despite multiple requests and the submission of all necessary supporting documents, these inaccuracies have not been properly addressed. My repeated follow-ups have been met with little to no action, and the continued presence of these errors has caused significant financial and emotional stress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to an accurate and verifiable credit report. I am requesting that you take immediate and thorough steps to investigate and correct these items. Failure to resolve them in a timely manner would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Bank reporting and billing errors are actively damaging my credit profile. Under the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) ), creditors are legally obligated to ensure accurate reflection of payments and credits. However, there are multiple discrepancies : payments I made were either misapplied or not recorded, and there are evident miscalculations in the reported balances. Furthermore, I did not receive the mandatory 21-day advance notice before a payment was due, rendering any late payment entries invalid. These reporting failures constitute a clear violation of federal law and have caused unjust harm to my credit standing. Immediate correction is required.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the inaccurate personal information listed on my Experian credit report, specifically the name " XXXX XXXX. '' This name is not a variation or alias of my legal name and its presence on my credit profile is deeply concerning. This error has created significant confusion and inconvenience in my financial life, leading to complications in verifying my identity and potentially exposing me to unnecessary security risks. Given the sensitive nature of personal information and the critical role it plays in the accuracy of my credit profile, it is unacceptable that this incorrect data remains uncorrected, despite my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( c ) ( 2 ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies maintain accurate and up-to-date personal information. This oversight not only undermines my trust in the credit reporting process but also raises concerns about potential data breaches, where my information may have been improperly handled, leading to this erroneous association.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.
