Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information I have found on my credit report, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request that such information be blocked or removed immediately. I am enclosing a copy of my FTC Identity Theft Report ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX ) as evidence of my claim. 
Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer files a report of identity theft, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as being the product of such theft within XXXX ( XXXX ) business days. 


The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be frozen : XXXX XXXX - XXXX, XXXX XXXX - XXXX Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I respectfully request that this account be immediately frozen from my credit report. This freeze must remain in effect for a period of XXXX year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no information may be reported. 
I have contacted EXPERIAN multiple times to report these accounts, but I have not received a clear or definitive solution to help me resolve this situation. This situation is severely impacting me, as I am trying to purchase a new home for my children and obtain financial tools to support my financial growth. Having these negative accounts on my credit report has blocked all my opportunities and is causing me personal and financial harm. These accounts have already been removed and were not verified by other credit bureaus, so I don't understand why this agency continues to claim these accounts belong to me. 
I have requested copies of the contracts related to these accounts from the reporting company, and after more than 60 days, I have not received a response. I respectfully request that you help me by removing these accounts immediately.

Company: International Computer Systems, Inc.
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I checked my credit report and saw a collection from XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never received anything from this company and I was not told that my information would ever be shared with them. I do not remember speaking with anyone from this company and I never approved any third party to handle a debt linked to my name. This account appeared on my report without any type of notice or permission. I had no idea they were involved with anything connected to me which makes this reporting feel unapproved and unsupported.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because Experian is reporting multiple fraudulent accounts, incorrect personal identifying information, and a false bankruptcy on my credit file, even after I submitted : TWO FTC Identity Theft Reports ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) My government-issued ID My Social Security card My proof of address A 605B Blocking Request A written identity theft statement An Identity Theft Affidavit A letter from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court confirming they do NOT report to credit bureaus Experian has failed to properly investigate or block fraudulent information as required by FCRA 605B.

My identity was compromised in the XXXX Data Breach, and afterward multiple false accounts including several high-dollar loans were created in my name without my authorization.

Despite providing extensive evidence, Experian has continued to report fraudulent information, causing financial harm, denial of credit, and ongoing damage to my reputation.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file.

The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes.

FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency.

FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information.

TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period.

Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I purchased a service through Affirms financing that was marketed as an XXXX XXXX XXXX from an online merchant. The core advertised deliverable was an expert review of a digital product that I provided to the merchant before the service began. 

Despite repeated requests over multiple weeks, the primary service ( the expert review ) was never delivered. Instead, the merchant provided generic business materials unrelated to my submitted product. Communication records show my consistent efforts to receive what was promised. 

After XXXX days of unfulfilled requests, I used the product elsewhere and notified the merchant, who responded by refunding only half of the total fee and refusing further contact. I engaged Affirms dispute process, supplying all evidence that the main service was not delivered. Affirm denied my claim, stating only that the merchant was operating within policy, but refused to clarify what that policy entailed or explain how it applies to non-delivery cases. 

I continued to pay the Affirm loan for the XXXX sessions that were delivered, even though they lacked the promised expert review. I am now left paying for a service that was never provided, with no clear explanation from Affirm regarding their denial or the merchants obligations.
