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

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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX, have encountered numerous violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and related consumer protection laws. These violations involve the reporting of inaccurate information, unauthorized hard inquiries, and deceptive practices by credit reporting agencies and debt collectors. Specifically, they failed to verify the accuracy of credit information, neglected to disclose my right to opt out of sharing personal information, and inaccurately reported late payments and debts without proper validation or my consent. 

Additionally, they disclosed debt-related information to third parties, failed to define late payments accurately, and included unauthorized finance charges. These actions are clear violations of FCRA Sections 616, 603 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ), and 623 ( a ) ( 3 ), among others. I am demanding immediate corrections to my credit report, including the deletion of inaccurate personal data, removal of unauthorized hard inquiries, and rectification of false reporting. If these issues are not resolved promptly, I will have no choice but to seek legal remedies as outlined by federal law.
