Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against the three major credit bureaus [ XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ] for failing to properly investigate and address inaccurate information on my credit report, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I disputed multiple third-party debt collector accounts on my credit report, as these accounts were purchased by debt XXXX, and the current status, balance, and payment details are incorrect. Specifically, my credit report fails to reflect the amount paid by the debt collector, which results in incomplete and misleading information. Despite these inaccuracies, all three credit bureaus have responded by simply marking these entries as " verified '' without providing any proof or evidence of a proper investigation into my dispute. 

The information listed on my credit report regarding these collection accounts is inaccurate and misleading, which constitutes a clear violation of the FCRA. I have not received any substantiated documentation supporting the verification of these accounts. As a result, I am requesting that these inaccurate entries be removed immediately. 

I respectfully ask that the CFPB look into this matter and help ensure my rights under the FCRA are upheld. 

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Experian for violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Experian is inaccurately reporting that my XXXX XXXX XXXX account ( account number : XXXX ) is closed and has been charged off and marked as late as of XX/XX/year>. 

According to 15 USC 1666B, a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. This provision clearly states that my payment should not be reported as late, yet Experian has done so.

Furthermore, 15 USC 1681 Section 602 emphasizes the importance of accurate and fair credit reporting. It is essential that consumer reporting agencies maintain the accuracy and integrity of the information they report. Experian 's actions are in direct violation of this section.

Additionally, 15 USC 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. Experian has failed to comply with this requirement, further violating my rights.
