Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Complaint narrative:
I provided a letter from the court that they do not provide verification of public records and was not contacted by any bureaus to confirm. Experian repeatedly denied accepting a dispute even when information was provided in writing. A bankruptcy that was reported was removed And re- entered on my credit report without proper verification. Despite having a written letter that verification was not obtained. Nor did they provide where the information was retrieved

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I obtained a copy of my consumer report and notified these agencies multiple times, specifically on XX/XX/2024 the most recent, about the items I disputed. Despite these notifications, the matter remains unresolved in a manner that is fair and equitable to me, the consumer, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I sent my notice to these agencies, which included a FTC Identity Theft Report, A FTC Affidavit and I also filed a complaint with the CFPB. Along with this letter, I have also included an Affidavit of Truth to further substantiate my claim.

I explained the violations your agency committed under the FCRA, while informing your agency of the fact that these items were reported without my expressed, written consent. This leads to way of identity theft, which leads to a violation of the civil liability section of the FCRA, as I informed you in the previous notices, which I have attached once more again for your record! 

This is a FINAL NOTICE to give your agency an opportunity to correct this situation or I will be forced to protect my credit rating and file a lawsuit against your agency. I have proven to your agency on many occasions that these items are a violation of the FCRA and should in fact be DELETED but your agency continues to violate me so I dont know what else to do besides suing your agency at this point. 

I have suffered emotional distress as a result of this matter and I demand this matter be resolved in a fair and equitable manner, which still hasnt been done

When I first saw the app XXXX through Bank of America I was unaware of the consequences of being scammed.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have filed a dispute with my bank Wells Fargo. Claim number XXXX. This was from XXXX who was supposed to charge me {$49.00} for services of cutting the grass rather they had charged {$170.00}. After filing a dispute the bank asked me for documentation, I screen-captured the billing amount and what they charged me for, they supplied me the date XX/XX/XXXX amount and Doc Type : Authoriztion, nothing more. The other letter in the documentation was regarding another transaction which was XXXX  XXXX and I never did a dispute on XXXX, they first gave me a provisional credit to my account then revoked it, stating they don't have enough documentation to honor the claim, yet I sent them that this company was only to be bill {$49.00} This type of banking allows all merchants just to run the card for whatever amount they want and get away with it. I spoke with multiple people, allowed my account to be closed to hopefully get help through XXXX  directly however I was informed that XXXX  does not work with transaction disputes they have to be determined by the issuing bank so I called back to the bank on XX/XX/XXXX with reference number XXXX and spoke with XXXX, and she assured me the conversation was recorded. They still are saying they do no have enough information, so I ask how can companies just bill you what they want, and have no protection of the funds of your account.

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.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the fair credit reporting act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I have provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experians inactions violated federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of my disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers, but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
It has come to my attention that my personal information was exposed in a national data breach, compromising my sensitive data. Upon reviewing my credit reports, I identified accounts that I do not recognize or recall opening. I submitted a request to the Consumer Reporting Agencies ( CRAs ) for validation of these accounts ; however, the required documentation has not been provided as mandated under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ). This failure to validate the information and the presence of unverified accounts on my credit report raises significant concerns about the accuracy and security of the data being reported. To address this matter, I have filed an FTC complaint regarding the breach and the unrecognized accounts and attached supporting evidence, including my government-issued ID, a copy of the FTC complaint , the National Data Breach Notification report, and a prior Validation of Debt letter.
