Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Experian for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Experian consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Experian 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Experian complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. 

I XXXX XXXX, a consumer, am notifying you that I dispute these alleged debts pursuant to 15 USC 1692G. I request that you provide to me verification of this alleged debt. Verification consists of a formal declaration in where you swear to the truths and statements of the facts of the matter, have first hand knowledge and must be notarized. Since this debt is disputed through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, you are required to cease all collection of this alleged debt which includes reporting to my consumer report with Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. I hereby inform you that you do not have my consent to communicate with me through any medium. Furthermore, I did not consent to you having my personal and private information. This constitutes aggravated identity theft. I also did not consent to you reporting information in my name to the consumer reporting agencies.

Pursuant to 18 USC 8, I owe no debt. These companies are violating my consumer right to privacy pursuant to 15 USC 1681b 2. These companies also have NO permission to report ANYTHING using my info pursuant to 15USC1681 4.
