Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the consumer reporting agency has included unauthorized hard inquiries on my credit report, which were not initiated by me. This is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and ( B ) ( i ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ) ( 5 ). These sections prohibit reporting inquiries not initiated by the consumer unless specific conditions are met, such as prior written authorization or a firm offer of credit. I did not authorize these inquiries and never provided my written consent. As such, their presence on my credit report is unlawful. The consumer reporting agency has also failed to provide evidence of permissible purpose or documentation containing my signature authorizing these inquiries.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent. You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I filed formal disputes with the credit bureau concerning inaccurate and unverifiable accounts on my credit report. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 611 ( a ) ), the bureau is required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation within 30 days, consult with the original furnishers, and provide me with written verification or remove the information if it is unverifiable. 
Instead, the bureau appears to rely on automated systems ( such as eOSCAR ) without requesting or reviewing original source documents, in violation of its duty to maintain maximum possible accuracy under FCRA 607 ( b ) / 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). 
The XXXX XX/XX/year>XXXX  enforcement action against Equifax ( resulting in a {$15.00} XXXX penalty ) confirms that these automated or superficial checks do not meet the reinvestigation requirements of the law. 
I requested detailed information about their reinvestigation process and copies of any verification or certification they obtained from the furnishers. They failed to provide this documentation and have continued reporting the disputed items without proof.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I dispute this alleged debt in its entirety. I have no record of ever entering into a contract or agreement directly with LVNV Funding LLC, nor do I acknowledge any valid assignment of debt that would create a contractual obligation between myself and LVNV Funding LLC. Therefore, I contend that I do not owe LVNV Funding LLC any money. 
Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I request that LVNV Funding LLC provide me with validation of this alleged debt, including : * Verification of the original creditor. 
* The original account number. 
* The amount of the original debt. 
* Documentation demonstrating a clear chain of title and legal right for LVNV Funding LLC to collect this specific debt from me, including a copy of any assignment or purchase agreement. 
* Proof that a contract or agreement exists between myself and LVNV Funding LLC, or that a valid contract with an original creditor has been legally assigned to LVNV Funding LLC and is enforceable against me. 
Until such time as LVNV Funding LLC can provide irrefutable evidence validating this debt and their legal right to collect it from me, I demand that they cease all collection activities, including but not limited to, telephone calls, letters, and reporting this alleged debt to any credit reporting agencies. If this alleged debt has already been reported, I request that it be immediately removed from my credit reports. 
I am requesting the CFPB 's assistance in investigating this matter and ensuring that LVNV Funding LLC adheres to all applicable consumer protection laws.
