Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this CFPB complaint as a follow up regarding remaining unauthorized inquiries and the inquiries I recently noticed on my 3 credit reports. Again, while XXXX has successfully removed all the unauthorized inquiries just this recent days earlier, when I habitually checked my XXXX credit report, I noticed these 5 unusual inquiries in it, the thing is when checking my records regarding those specific days I found none of the said inquiries I made to the companies. The same thing for Experian and, in particular, XXXX. Like I said in my recent complaint the Experian has removed most but not all of the specified fraudulent inquiries, with two inquiries remaining unresolved. However, from XXXX Credit Bureau there was no action has been taken to remove any fraudulent inquiries, and now these additional 6 inquiries added to my issues I need to fix in my credit file. I kindly request that Experian, XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureaus promptly address the following fraudulent inquiries : EXPERIAN : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. I want to ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my creditworthiness and remains free from unauthorized entries. As a consumer, I expect full compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 605B, which mandates credit bureaus to investigate and respond to consumer disputes within 30 days. Considering that several months have passed since I initiated these inquiries, I request immediate action to resolve this matter.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CT XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ATTN : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Subject : Complaint against XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX for Continuously Erroneous Credit Reporting Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX regarding their continuous and reckless erroneous reporting on my credit report. Despite numerous complaints submitted throughout this year, all of which have been ignored, their negligent actions have caused significant financial and emotional distress. 

My personal information is as follows : Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX Gender : Female Current Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX Employer : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I hereby demand that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX take immediate action to update and correct my credit report as follows : Removal of all addresses with which I am not associated : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX Removal of the following collection accounts, as the bureaus have failed to provide their method of verification for these accounts, and I confirm that they are not mine : XXXX XXXX  # XXXX ( No creditor listed ) Account # XXXX ) XXXX XXXX # XXXX I want to stress that these inaccuracies have seriously damaged my creditworthiness and caused considerable hardship in obtaining loans, credit cards, and other financial opportunities.

Please find attached relevant documents supporting my claim, including previous complaint communications with the credit bureaus. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a swift resolution.

Complaint narrative:
When I originally notified XXXX XXXX that I wanted to updated Privacy Policy, a representative commented through the CFPB complaint feedback stating that there was no such thing, and that XXXX XXXX sharing my personal information is how daily business operates and is ran and I could not opt out. Which after doing more research and learning more laws is unfair and untrue! XXXX XXXX Totally Disregard my complaint. XXXX XXXX has been contacting family members I havent spoken to in years asking to speak with me, instead of calling me. Ive already tried to resolve this debt in house and nothing seems to satisfy this creditor. They refused to put me on a payment plan or defer the loan. They continue to send emails and letters stating if I don't pay by XX/XX/XXXX they are required to sell the debt to third- parties. I did in fact was able to google the link to opt out, but employees are uneducated and told me unlawful and unethical information. XXXX XXXX continues to report negative untrue information on my credit report when I disputed it with them. Someone made a note on my Experian credit report saying- Completed investigation of FCRA dispute - consumer disagrees Because what exactly did I not agree with? basically not complying with the FCRA and still reporting negative false statements. I have been denied every extension of credit because of this company.

Complaint narrative:
Background information : CareCredit offered me a promotion of no interest incurred if payed in full within a specific time which would have ended XX/XX/2023. Months prior to that, I signed up for CareCredit to automatically withdraw XXXX  on every XXXX of the month. When I looked at my statement I saw that I would have to pay an additional XXXX for the month of XX/XX/XXXX in order to complete the promotional period of no interest successfully. So I paid XXXX  on the XXXX of XXXX and the automatic XXXX withdrawal that takes place on the XXXX of every month would have paid off my promotion and I would not have incurred any interest. CareCredit and their underhanded devious tricks only debit an automatic payment on the XXXX of XXXX for XXXX  to equal a XXXX  and therefore prevented me from successfully fulfilling my promotional obligation and thereby they assessed my account for XXXX  interest on XX/XX/XXXX. 

The fact that they are accessing my account for amounts I did not approve is another offense itself. Using my account for unauthorized payments is against the law. 

We all know when automatic payments are set up and payments made in addition to that has absolutely nothing to do with deducting from automatic payments. It was dirty and underhanded. I want them punished and I believe we should receive a monetary punishment from them.
