Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint concerning a violation of my federally protected rights delineated in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under 15 USC 1681. The presented list of accounts starkly demonstrates a blatant disregard for my fundamental rights to privacy and confidentiality. Despite explicit requests for reinvestigation directed at XXXX, XXXX and Experian and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  their responses have consistently asserted the completeness and accuracy of all information. However, these assertions directly conflict with the undeniable inaccuracies in critical details such as open dates, dates of last activity, and other pivotal elements. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ), these agencies are unequivocally mandated to rectify inaccurately reported accounts. Moreover, under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ), any entity is explicitly prohibited from furnishing inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies when knowledge or reasonable cause exists of such inaccuracies. The ramifications of these inaccuracies extend beyond mere data errors. They significantly impact crucial credit ratios, such as the length of credit history, debt-to-credit utilization, and misrepresented balances, consequently impeding my ability to secure credit. These inaccuracies are an infringement of my rights and impair my capability to obtain fair access to credit opportunities due to misrepresented and flawed data. Additionally, it is crucial to note that while other bureaus could not verify these accounts, they inexplicably remain on the reports of these agencies. This incongruity is perplexing, as all bureaus are expected to follow similar verification processes. The persistence of these inaccuracies across multiple reporting agencies underscores a systemic issue that requires urgent attention. I implore the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to investigate this matter promptly and take decisive action against the entities responsible for their failure to adhere to federal regulations to safeguard consumer rights. Rectifying these inaccuracies is essential to restore the integrity of the consumer reporting system and ensure fair access to credit for individuals. Thank you for your immediate attention to this pressing issue.
