Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because XXXX has inaccurately reported a XXXX delinquency for XX/XX/year> on my student loan, while failing to report any data for XXXX and XX/XX/year>. This is misleading and factually incomplete, constituting a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 1681e ( b ), which requires furnishers to provide information that is both accurate and complete. 

I submitted a formal dispute on XX/XX/year>, challenging the accuracy of this tradeline. On XX/XX/year>, XXXX verified the information, yet provided no documented evidence or payment records to justify how a 90-day delinquency is possible without any prior 30-day or 60-day late entries. This failure to conduct a reasonable investigation is a violation of FCRA 1681s-2 ( b ).

Initially, TransUnion and Equifax removed the account from my credit profile, acknowledging the issue. However, Experian retained the tradeline, and recently, the negative account was reinserted back into both XXXX  and Equifax, despite no new supporting documentation being provided. This raises serious concerns about compliance with FCRA reinsertion requirements and further evidences negligent data handling by XXXX. 

This inaccurate and unverifiable reporting has significantly harmed my credit score and my ability to obtain financing. I am requesting that the CFPB take immediate action to : Investigate XXXX  handling of this dispute, Determine whether a proper reinvestigation occurred, And require permanent deletion of the tradeline unless XXXX can provide complete and verifiable payment records showing XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX late payments. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I've been an amex customer for over a decade and have never had my account in bad standing. Do to a bank error one of my amex payments was rejected. I paid the fee, but amex suspended the account attached to the autopay and a technical error prevented me from modifying autopay in any way, it was stuck on but unbeknownst to me nonfunctional. 

Every month I'd check in to see autopay was scheduled to run, and every month it wouldn't go through and id get a late fee. I would then try to submit a payment on the website, but it wouldn't allow me to due to the suspended bank account even though I had multiple other valid options. It wouldn't even let me remove the suspended account, and it took customer service an hour to do to themselves when I called in today. 

They refuse to reimburse the late fees even though they were only levied against my account due to the deceptive and buggy nature of their website
