Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I have tried numerous times this year to solve an issue with Experian. Experian is reporting a Bankruptcy on my credit report that I have no knowledge of. I have reached out to XXXX XXXX and United States Bankruptcy Court on confirmation of the Bankruptcy. XXXX XXXX does not have a Bankruptcy listed for me at all and there is also a freeze on my report, so how was that possible. United States Bankruptcy Court does not do business with credit bureaus at all. I have asked several times for them to do in investigation on this but they refuse and lie about it being verified, but have yet to provide proof. The Bankruptcy is not listed on any other credit report. They also do not mark the Bankruptcy as being disputed at all, which I believe is unlawful. I have documents to go along with my complaint if need be.

Im confused and stressed and shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor.
