State: CT

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I accidentally accepted an offer from Experian for an account upgrade that would cost {$25.00}. At the time my credit score was XXXX. Two minutes after realizing this, I called customer service to cancel the paid subscription and keep the free one. Again, this is on the same day and after seeing my error, I jump to correct it. After canceling the paid account, on XX/XX/year>, my credit score went to XXXX. There wasn't anything to justify the XXXX-point drop. I was unable to speak to anyone at Experian about the sudden change. I can only dispute information from other companies that report to Experian.

It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.

Complaint narrative:
I received a copy of my credit report recently and noticed that there still remains information on my credit report that does not accurately reflect me. I've requested many times for a removal of these accounts from my credit file, but no proper actions were taken. 

I've attached all correspondence, so all information is understandable. There are three accounts and have too many inaccuracies. I'm also aware that this furnishing violates my personal and privacy rights. 

Can you help me with this?

State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report.

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.
