Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian for its failure to conduct a thorough investigation into inaccurate items on my credit report, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

On XX/XX/2024, I diligently submitted a dispute letter to Experian via USPS certified mail Tracking # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, requesting an investigation into inaccurate items on my credit report. Additionally, I disputed incorrect personal information listed on my credit report. I took great care to include a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and a recent bill with my current address to assist Experian in verifying my identity and address. Despite these efforts, Experian refused to conduct an investigation. 

Subsequently, I received a response from Experian, dated XX/XX/2024, stating : We received a recent request regarding your credit information that does not appear to have been sent directly by you or to be authorized by you. As a precautionary measure, we have not taken any action on your alleged request. This failed to acknowledge the substance of my dispute and provide a resolution. The response lacked clarity and did not address the evidence provided to verify my identity and address. 

Experian 's failure to conduct a reasonable investigation into the disputed items on my credit report is a direct violation of my consumer rights under the FCRA. As per the FCRA, credit bureaus are obligated to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation when the completeness or accuracy of any item of information in a consumer 's file is disputed. It seems evident that Experian has infringed upon my consumer rights by failing to conduct a reasonable investigation upon receipt of my dispute, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Enclosed, you will find a copy of the dispute letter I sent to Experian, along with proof of USPS certified mail delivery and Experian 's subsequent response. This documentation serves as irrefutable evidence of my efforts to rectify inaccuracies on my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary 21-day notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion for its repeated refusal to conduct a thorough investigation into inaccurate items on my credit report, as well as incorrect personal information, despite multiple requests and provision of necessary documentation. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, I diligently submitted dispute letters to TransUnion, requesting an investigation into inaccurate items on my credit report. Additionally, I disputed incorrect personal information listed on my credit report. I took great care to include a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and a recent bill with my current address to assist TransUnion in verifying my identity and address. However, on two separate occasions, TransUnion refused to conduct the investigation. 
Subsequently, I received responses from TransUnion, dated XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, which stated that they refused to conduct the investigation. These responses failed to provide any valid justification for their refusal and neglected to address the substance of my dispute. This repeated refusal to investigate the inaccuracies on my credit report is in direct violation of my consumer rights. 
Transunions failure to conduct a reasonable investigation into the disputed items on my credit report is a direct violation of my consumer rights under the FCRA.

Equifax has been sharing my locked credit profile with XXXX XXXX without my consent. My credit profile has been locked for years. Equifax has no right to share my private personal financial information with XXXX XXXX  without my consent. This is not the first time Equifax has shared my private, personal credit profile with XXXX XXXX  while my credit profile was locked. It resulted in XXXX XXXX  reducing my overall credit limits on my credit cards and taking away my ability for cash advances because of the information they proactively received from Equifax. This is unlawful while my credit profile is blacked. That is the whole purpose of locking my credit profile so that I do not have unsolicited sharing of my personal information.
