Complaint narrative:
XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/202XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and had an ex employee have a garnished judgement against them. I sent in the court requested information which they claimed to have not received. They then went ahead and sent a letter threatening my company saying my company would be liable for the entire debt if I did not respond. I contacted them and told them the employee no longer worked here to clear it up but they continued to blame me and my business instead of holding the person with the judgement or themselves with responsibility. I'd like to also state that they clearly do not know or follow the laws for debt collection considering they should know that the person did not earn enough to even have a significant amount garnished as there are limits on this. This was also over medical debt, which I have even had run ins with them in the past trying to skirt rules and laws.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "
