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:
Hey, my name is XXXX XXXX, and I am submitting this complaint regarding an inaccurately reported late payment on my Current XXXX XXXX account. I changed my mobile phone number. Following this change, I was completely unable to access my Current account, because the Current mobile app only allowed login verification using the old phone number that was no longer active. There was no alternative username/password login method, no email-based verification, and no other way to authenticate my account. 

Because of this, I was entirely unable to : log into my Current account view my XXXX XXXX balance receive notifications make a payment update my contact information This access restriction persisted through the period when the payment became due. As a result, the payment reported as late did not occur due to negligence or refusal to pay, but solely because Currents authentication system locked me out of my account with no available method to regain access after a phone-number change. 

Once I was finally able to regain access to my account, I made the required payment immediately. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), furnishers of information have an obligation to ensure that all information they report to the credit bureaus is accurate and fair. Reporting a late payment that resulted from a system-level access failure rather than consumer behavior violates the requirement that data reflect the consumers true payment performance. 
This late payment has caused significant and unjustified damage to my credit score, dropping it by over XXXX points, and it reflects a derogatory mark that is not an accurate representation of my payment history or intent.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
