Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago, I tried to login to Experian to see if my credit information matched with XXXX XXXX. I was having difficulties logging in. Experian was asking me to verify myself ( after the process of name, address, SSN, etc ) it asked what company I have a mortgage loan with/student loan/car loan. I answered does not apply to all of them. Because I do not have a student/car/mortgage with anyone. Experian then told me they could not verify me. I tried again, recieved similar question, I chose the same answer. Experian then gave me the notification that I needed to call. 

I called, the person had a bit of trouble verifying me, but was able to since they had my main address from XXXX  in XXXX. I live in XXXX  now. My credit score was above XXXX. Yesterday I recieved a notification that I had no credit. So I immediately logged in and seen I had no credit and no accounts. I had 2 accounts. One credit card with XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX. That closed. I was also on a XXXX XXXX Credit Card as a joint signer. I don't understand how I went from having credit above XXXX to having XXXX credit?? I worked so hard with my first credit card to establish credit ... ... and now it's gone. All of the credit reporting agencies show XXXX and say I never had credit. I am so confused and so mad and upset. 

What do I do? The person that assisted me from Experian seemed to not care and was unable to help me.

Along with getting a refund for money paid towards these loans the loans are to be deleted from my credit report. I've contacted XXXX directly multiple times by phone and email they refuse to delete the loans on my credit report.

They've now added comments to my credit report stating the loan is accurate and it's in deferment that's now messed around with my credit.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: January Technologies, Inc
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
In 2023, I was notified by a company called January Technologies for a debt that was not mine. They kept emailing me and calling me, harassing me about payments that I did not owe.I sent a letter on XX/XX/2023 via email to the agency disputing the debt in question and requesting verification as per my rights under the FDCPA. According to my records, this letter was received by the office on the same day because they acknowledged it was received by the office and should have triggered the 30-day timeframe within which they were obligated to provide the requested verification. 

However, to my surprise, I received a response from your agency on XX/XX/2023, which is well beyond the 30-day period mandated by the FDCPA I sent a letter XX/XX/XXXX to ask for verification of the debt and where it came from.This delay in providing verification is not only a violation of the law but also raises concerns about the accuracy and legitimacy of the alleged debt. Additionally, it has come to my attention that there are strong indications of falsification of the debt by your chosen debt collection agency. The FDCPA explicitly prohibits debt collectors from using deceptive, unfair, or unconscionable practices when attempting to collect a debt. Falsifying or misrepresenting the existence, amount, or nature of a debt is a clear violation of this law. 

They have provided a log in lin which does not work. They have yet to provide information that is valid.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
After checking my credit report I noticed several inquiries that I did not recognize or authorize. I contacted XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX on XX/XX/2023 via certified mail and brought this matter to their attention. They did not do anything about this issue. I contacted them again on XX/XX/2023 via certified mail again asking them why they did NOT do anything about this situation and if they can show me any proof of who tried to open accounts without my authorization. I did research and seen that there all laws that require the credit reporting agencies to provide proof of why they gave these companies access to my credit report without PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE? Since they have not done what they are required to do, I made sure I filed an identity theft claim with the FTC and am asking the CFPB with assistance with this situation.
