Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
It appears Experian is retaliating towards my account due to ongoing account credit disputes with my credit file. The vast majority of information being reported is incomplete, missing vital account information such as full payment history, account numbers, correct account balances, and debts incorrect balances, all 3 bureaus are reporting different information and I demand this agency get involved to resolve this once and for all! 

Experian and all banks refusing to cooperate are continuing to penalize my credit account by removing accounts that have been paid/settled satisfactory and displaying only accounts as owed monies that have been previously charged off/ written off. If the account is charged off with {$0.00} balance why are all the bureaus still reporting the accounts and owed balances if the company charged off the debt or sold the debt? 

I demand all banks to send updated statements as of today proving accounts were sold, charged off/ written off, or closed and include original contract promissory note signed by me proving debt was paid per law. I demand every bank reporting on the credit bureau to comply immediately. 

I also demand banks all include updated payment voucher to discharge debts once and for all. 

I do not consent to have the credit bureaus report negative inaccurate information on my credit or to the public or on private internal communications within the companies about my account, Experian is intentionally inflicting pain and suffering by not removing negative reports and further lowering my credit report so that I can not qualify for credit and they reported my credit as a high risk to creditors. 

I am preparing to sue all 3 bureaus and its executives in federal court now given the circumstances. This is intentional infliction of harm and has caused severe financial hardship and trauma and I will hold the executives accountable for all the harm caused to date! 

I have tried peacefully resolving these problems for many years now and its become obvious that the banks and bureaus do not work for consumers best interests which is an act of bad faith and federal law violation!

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of XXXX, I paid off a credit card account in the amount of {$7200.00}. The remaining balance of all credit cards was {$760.00}. At that time, my credit score with Experian was XXXX. After paying off this account, without closing the card, Experian dropped my credit score XXXX XXXX  to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX when my report refreshed. My score with XXXX  is XXXX and XXXX  XXXX. This is not the first time EX has done this when paying off a debt. When I view the " What's changed '' link, debt has decreased, credit line increased, all total accounts has decreased, which all state " help '' your credit score. When I called on XX/XX/XXXX, the agent ( XXXX ) stated that there was nothing negative in my account, although she could see that there was a new inquiry on my XXXX  report which does not affecting my EX report, but that they are unable to interpret my credit. That seems strange considering they are able to interpret my credit just fine to a vendor when they run an inquiry. However, when I view the notifications, it clearly shows the explanation of my score decrease on EX being due to the Inquiry on XXXX. This has nothing to do with EX and they should not be able to decrease my score based on an inquiry made to another bureau. Additionally, they refuse to correct my annual income which also hurts my debt to income ratio. How can they get away with this? Why are they being allowed to penalize my credit score for being a responsible person with my money and paying off debt. I could understand if I closed the account, but I did not. When I said all of this to the agent, she hung up on me. By looking online and reviewing complaints, this seems to be a repetitive issue. Just because they are 1 of 3 large reporting agencies, and ultimately a conglomerate, does not mean they should have the power to act in any manner they like without explanation or recourse.

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint narrative:
I had a credit builder account with the company Chime. One day I was going on a trip and booked an XXXX with my credit builder account for my first portion of payment for my XXXX. The credit builder account for Chime was XXXX. It messed up my credit a lot. I close my credit builder account a few weeks later. I paid the rest of my XXXX with my regular chime checking account because i closed my credit builder. my XXXX host unfortunately canceled my reservation. the first portion of my funds that was paid to reserve XXXX ( {$92.00} ) was refunded to my CLOSED credit builder account. I reached out to chime since XX/XX/XXXX ( exact date when XXXX refunded my money to my credit builder ) for about four months ( last outreach was today XX/XX/23 ) they gave me the runarounds for my money. First they kept telling me that it was already refunded, and that I had already received it after me repeatedly telling them that the funds are on my closed credit builder account. They closed my dispute after I kept repeatedly asking for an update on my funds, and where my funds were. Once they were finally able to see that the funds were on my closed credit builder account, they kept telling me that I would receive a check. I have reached out several times in regards to this check and still not receiving a check in the mail. I literally just want my refund.
