Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I was a victim of identity theft in 2020. I was a long time card holder with American Express XXXX credit card. When my entire wallet was stolen from me with all of my personal information inside, including my American Express card and several other credit cards. All maxed out! I called American Express as I did with all of my other credit/bank cards. They were the only one to refuse to protect me from the fraud that occurred on my American Express account. Deeming they were my charges and charging them off as bad debt on my credit. Ive called in several times and have tried to dispute it with American Express and my credit report and American Express refuses to do anything about this, 4 years later and I am STILL dealing with this mess, thanks to American Express not having any kind of fraud protection or fraud preventive services and refuse to help a fraud victim!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, after reviewing my credit report, I identified discrepancies pertaining to accounts labeled XXXX XXXX  XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. In light of this, I promptly submitted a formal dispute letter to Experian on XX/XX/year>, requesting a reinvestigation of these accounts. 

Subsequently, on XX/XX/year>, I received communication from Experian, indicating that they had completed their investigation and concluded that the information on the aforementioned accounts is accurate and complete. However, upon reviewing my credit report again, I discovered that the discrepancies persist unchanged. 

I believe Experian 's handling of this matter is in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, specifically 15 USC 1681i, which outlines the treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information. According to this statute, consumer reporting agencies are obligated to promptly delete or modify inaccurate information following a consumer dispute, as well as notify the furnisher ( s ) of said information about any modifications or deletions made to the consumer 's file.

Furthermore, I assert that Experian 's actions contravene the provisions set forth in 15 USC 1681e, which stipulates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of information contained in consumer reports. This includes reporting information with actual knowledge of errors and refraining from furnishing inaccurate information after notice and confirmation of errors. 

As a result, I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate action against Experian for its failure to adhere to the legal obligations outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I seek resolution in the form of accurate reporting on my credit file and accountability for Experian 's non-compliance with federal regulations. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will act swiftly to address this issue. Should you require any further information or documentation from my end, please do not hesitate to contact me at the provided contact details. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
This account was opened in XXXX, I never received any card nor any communication from the company. The credit card was never used nor were there any charges ever filed on this account. The card was never used because I never had custody of this credit card. I've asked numerous times to remove the card from my credit report because it's hurting my credit score. The Credit Card company eventually closed the account due to inactivity but never removed it from my credit report and continues to report it to credit rating companies; including : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. This has caused me to lose a job opportunity with XXXX XXXX due to many closed accounts. This account needs to be immediately removed from my credit report meaning a full deletion because I never used this card, never had custody of this card and who ever opened the account never charged anything either.
