State: CA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding their handling of my credit report dispute. My name is XXXX XXXX, and I have been experiencing difficulties with Equifax in resolving inaccuracies on my credit report. 

On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a dispute to Equifax concerning several fraudulent items on my credit report. However, I received a response from Equifax stating that they were unable to locate a credit file in their database with the identification information I provided. Equifax requested additional documents to verify my identity and current address. Despite providing the necessary documents as requested, the issue remains unresolved. 

The documents requested by Equifax were : Identification : A copy of my Social Security Card. 
Current Address : A copy of my Driver 's License. 
I have enclosed these documents with my correspondence to Equifax but have not received a satisfactory resolution to my dispute. The lack of response and resolution from Equifax has caused me significant inconvenience and stress, as the fraudulent items on my credit report continue to affect my financial standing and creditworthiness. 

I kindly request that the CFPB intervene in this matter to ensure that Equifax properly processes my dispute and corrects the inaccuracies on my credit report in a timely manner. I am seeking a prompt and fair resolution to this issue. 

XXXX : Account number : XXXX, This accounts name and number are questionable. I demand this to be removed. 

XXXX XXXXXXXX : Account number : XXXX, This accounts name and number are questionable. I demand this to be removed. 

XXXX XXXX | XX/XX/year> : Account number XXXX XXXX, I have not requested a inquiry for credit from this company. Delete this inquiry immediately. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Please let me know if there are any additional details or documents required to facilitate this complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: LEXISNEXIS
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> Lexis Nexis closed my complaint stating they can not verify me, and that have been sending me emails to verify my identity and I havent responded. That was a lie. They sent me emails to verify my email address not my identity and i have respoinded several times. I have attached a screenshot showing all the correspondence they sent. Additionally how could you not verify my identity when I sent over my passport SS card and bank statement verifying my address and Identity. Additionally the fact that I keep responding to the documentation your sending over to my address which is XXXX XXXX XXXX should also be proof this is my correct address and verify it. You also just removed address from my former complaint and had no problem verifying who I was to get that done. Stop stalling as you have given all the proof I need for litigation. Address my complaint and stop with the i can not verify you. This is my final attemp before me and my counsel proceed with our case. My initail complaint you never addressed was : Lexis Nexis stated they obtained my bankruptcy from the XXXX XXXX court which is not true the bankruptcy court does not provide third parties with public records. I never consented to Lexis Nexis obtaining my information from a third party, they used PACER illegally to obtain my XXXX record then they furnished my information to additional credit bureaus XXXX and XXXX. XXXX LexisNexis said they verified the information from the court. I have attached documentaion that determined that was not accurate. Then they said the information was verified via XXXX I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and have attached documention that they also do not report any information to credit reporting agencies. So LexisNexis is again in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681, et seq. ( hereafter FCRA ), which prohibits XXXX XXXX Agencies ( CRA ) from engaging in deceptive and unfair practices. I have also attached documentation verifying my identity with XXXX forms of ID so that your stall letters can stop. This is affecting me and adding XXXX XXXX to my life I am trying to buy a home and certain things like this are preventing me from doing so I am requesting for you to please review and do your due diligence by me the consumer to get this matter corrected as soon as possible.
