Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I received an alert that a collection was placed on my credit file. Once I looked on there I notice a collection was placed with XXXX XXXX XXXX on Experian credit file. I have no acknowledgement of this debt or understand how it just appeared out of nowhere on my report, so I disputed it. Additionally, I never received a validation letter or any communication from the credit buyer through any other means. This was all stated in the dispute with the Experian, but miraculously the dispute came back as verified the as correct information. I don't know how that is possible when the credit buyer never sent out the notices required by law! This Company has done this is the past, and will now try and use the credit reporting agencies ( CRA ) and CFPB as middle men to try and pass validation/verification letters and other correspond through in hopes of it qualifying as their communication for FCRA purposes, instead of sending it via certified mail like the regulation requires. I would really like to know what Experian relied on to verify this account since there is nothing even showing the acct. was verified unless it was forged.

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

Complaint narrative:
According to the FCRA, income should not be reported on a consumer credit report. However, I have discovered that both XXXX and Experian have erroneously included a canceled debt as income on my credit report. As per the guidelines set forth by the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ), a canceled debt should be reported as income. I have attached a copy of the 1099B form that clearly states this and serves as proof that the canceled debt is considered income under the IRS guidelines. EXPERIAN AND XXXX are reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
I have made multiple attempts to have this inaccurate information corrected by contacting both XXXX and Experian directly. I requested proper validation and what method they used to validate. However, despite providing them with the necessary documentation and following their dispute procedures, I have not seen any resolution or correction on my credit report. 
I kindly request the assistance of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in this matter. I believe that XXXX and Experian 's actions are in violation of the FCRA, specifically regarding the reporting of income on a consumer credit report. I would greatly appreciate it if the CFPB could investigate this case and take appropriate action to rectify the situation. 
attached is my photo ID and a copy of the 1099B form that clearly indicates the canceled debt should be considered income and not reported on a consumer credit report. 
I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter and hope for a resolution that aligns with the FCRA guidelines. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I do not acknowledge this debt and if the creditor can not produce and signed documents that I agreed to any accounts with this company, then to stop harassing me and remove the account or further legal action will be taken against them.
