Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have had accounts with Wells Fargo for over thirty years, both business and personal. When I deposit checks for my business I do it by phone and sometime they deposit the whole amount, other times the deposit a portion for immediate use and the rest goes into my account the next day. 
Recently I lost a friend a Brother, ( we both are XXXX Vets. ) he left me a something. I went to deposit it into my existing saving account and got talked into taking my old account and making it a XXXX XXXX so it would create more interest. We, ( the banker and I ) deposited into the newly revamped savings and it deposited a small amount in my account and I was notified that the rest would be posted the next day. 
The next day I received a notice that the deposit was on hold for ten days. 
When I inquired why, no one could give me a straight answer. They said there was something wrong with the signature. The Executor of the estate and the Trustee of the trust went to bank that the funds were issued by and the bank told me the check cleared the day I deposited it. They said if something is holding it up it would be Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo will not budge. They have my money but they will not post it. 
So Wells Fargo is taking a ten day float with my money, even though they have the money from the other bank, ( and it is a large amount of money! ) It is an amount that they insisted I put it in a XXXX account. 
Wells Fargo are crooks. After thirty years with them I am done. I have no banker to watch my back. They are using my money for their bottom line. I will never trust Wells Fargo again.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
This version is slightly more formal and structured for clarity. I am writing to formally dispute several inaccuracies on my credit report that persist despite prior verification efforts, which indicated the information was accurate and verified report # XXXX. 

These discrepancies pertain specifically to my XXXX account ( # XXXX ). 
1. **Past Due Balance on Charge-Off : ** The report shows a past due balance of {$2400.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX, on an account that was charged off. It is unclear how this balance remains after the charge-off occurred. I request clarification on this issue? 
2. **Inconsistent Charge-off : ** This account is listed as a charge-off under your Grid Code : L. According to Experians glossary ( BCI ), a charge-off does not have a recurring charge off code in the payment status of your glossary, yet my report shows recurring charge-offs each month from XXXX XXXX. This does not align with XXXX guidelines and must be addressed. Given these inconsistencies, I request a full validation of this account, including a copy of the originally signed contract bearing my signature. Additionally, I would like to remind you that, as of XX/XX/XXXX, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) amended the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Summary of Consumer Rights. Consumer reporting agencies are now required to provide consumers with this updated summary whenever there is a request for disclosure of their consumer file. Please ensure this is included in your response. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I expect a thorough investigation and the deletion of these inaccuracies. 
Proof of documentation is uploaded.
