Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXXXXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXXXXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Made on Time : My payments were made on time, as evidenced by my bank statements and payment confirmations, which clearly show the payment was processed before the due date. These payments should not have been marked as late. 
Bank Processing Error : There was an internal error at XXXXXXXX XXXX that delayed the application of my timely payment. The error caused the payment to reflect as late in the system, even though I had sent the funds on time. I have attached communication records with XXXXXXXX XXXX acknowledging this error and confirming that the payment was received. 
Misapplied Payments : The payments were incorrectly applied to the wrong account due to a clerical error. I contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX immediately when I noticed the issue, and they confirmed the error. However, the late payment entries were not corrected in my credit report despite the banks acknowledgment of the mistake. I am attaching documentation of my communication with XXXXXXXX XXXX as further evidence. 

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion, a consumer reporting agency, for their failure to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and rectify a violation regarding the reinsertion of previously deleted material into my credit report. 
On XX/XX/year>, I sent a letter to TransUnion notifying them of the reinsertion of XXXX XXXXXXXX account number XXXX into my credit report without proper certification of accuracy and notification to me, as mandated by FCRA Section 611 ( B ). Despite waiting for 35 days after sending the letter, TransUnion has failed to remove the reinserted account from my credit report, continuing to violate FCRA regulations. TransUnions actions have caused significant inconvenience and potential harm to my credit profile, impacting my ability to access fair credit terms and financial opportunities. Despite my efforts to resolve this matter directly with TransUnion, they have neglected to take appropriate action, demonstrating a lack of accountabilitv and compliance with federal consumer protection laws.

- [ ] XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Tx. XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX SSN : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Tx XXXX XXXX To whom it may concern : Upon inspection of my credit report, I noticed the following information is continuously being reported incorrect : My full name is : XXXX XXXX XXXX There should be no other name/aliases listed on my report. Please remove any other names/aliases you have listed as they are incorrect. 

My current address is : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Tx. XXXX Any other addresses are in correct, undeliverable and I have no access to them. Please remove any and all incorrect addresses immediately.

My current employer ( s ) : None There should be no other employer ( s ) listed on my report. Please remove all other employers you have listed as they are incorrect.

You are harming my ability as a consumer to obtain credit by putting out my credit report that contained inaccurate and/or obsolete information. 

Its my understanding that Experian has agreed to pay {$22.00} XXXX to resolve claims it hurt consumers ability to get credit by adding allegedly inaccurate and untrue information to their credit reports. 

Experian you are making my credit report which using outdated home address/ undeliverable address and multiple aliases with incorrect information to report it as high-risk for credit fraud reports. 

Its my understanding Experian company policy DOESNT oversee that theyre obligated under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to put out credit reports which are as accurate as attainable and that dont include any adverse information that is obsolete. 

It is my belief that the sole and only reason that YOU continue refusing to remove all name/aliases & addresses other than what Ive given with the documentation that validate my CORRECT full name & CURRENT & ONLY address is to flagging it as being HIGH RISK OR NON-RESIDENTIAL which benefits YOU monetarily. 

Attached is the supporting all REQUIRED documentation to validate my dispute. Please update your records accurately & send me a updated copy with my accurate personal profile information promptly. 

Thank you Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request your intervention regarding an ongoing issue with **Experian** regarding disputes I filed with them concerning accounts on my credit report. These disputes are directly linked to inaccuracies that arose due to the **XXXX  data breach**. Despite Experians assertion that they have verified the disputed accounts, they have failed to provide **certified copies of legal documentation** supporting their claims of verification.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires that when a credit reporting agency ( CRA ) claims to have verified disputed information, they must produce the **legal documentation** or other verifiable records that substantiate the accuracy of the information. Hearsay or internal data verification alone is not legally sufficient, and I have made Experian aware that such hearsay does not meet the evidentiary standards required in a court of law.

I have given Experian ample time to provide certified documents or remove the inaccurate accounts, but they have failed to do so. **Under FCRA Section 611**, if a disputed item can not be verified with proper documentation, it must be removed or corrected from the consumers credit report. Experians failure to comply with this legal requirement should result in the removal of the following accounts from my report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I request that the CFPB demand Experian take immediate corrective action by either : 1. Providing the legally required documentation that verifies the accuracy of these accounts.

2. Removing or correcting the accounts as mandated under the FCRA.

Experians lack of compliance with FCRA regulations is a serious breach of consumer rights, and I respectfully ask for your assistance in ensuring that these inaccurate items are removed from my credit report as required by law. Please confirm receipt of this letter and provide any additional steps I need to take to resolve this issue.

Thank you for your time and assistance in this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Complaint narrative:
I see that TransUnion is continuing to violate my federal consumer rights knowingly which is beyond disrespectful and goes against federal law. They added a remark on the US DEPT OF EDUCATION ECS account that stated, " Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements ''. I clearly stated many violations about this matter in my previous complaint. I fully intend to pursue litigation in accordance with the FCRA to enforce my rights and seek relief and recover all monetary damages that I may be entitled to under Section 616 and Section 617 regarding your continued willful and negligent noncompliance. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A Section 2 Also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) is a federal law enacted in 1974 that protects the privacy of student education records. FERPA applies to any public or private elementary, secondary, or post-secondary school. 20 USC 1232g ( b ). Also, according to 15 USC 6805 - Enforcement, it states how the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection ( CFPB ) has to enforce the regulations.

I couldnt believe it when I saw inaccurate accounts on my credit report this morning, and I have no idea how they got there. I regularly check my report, but this time there were unexpected discrepancies. I even tried refreshing my browser in case it was a glitch, but nothing changed. The inaccurate accounts stayed there. I'm really hoping the documents I sent will be thoroughly reviewed so I never have to worry about this happening again.

This is really worrying, my credit report has items that have resulted from fraud which I never benefitted from.

This is a defamation of my character and is incredibly insulting, my rights are being violated which is absolutely distressing.

Complaint narrative:
Account number XXXX with XXXX XXXX was charged off in XX/XX/scrub>XXXX 

This account should no longer appear on my credit report. However, the company XXXX XXXX continues to report historic information to my credit report. 

I have attached the original document which shows this account was charged off in XXXX. The same account number is now reporting as Swiss colony/montgomery on my credit report. 

This historical information reporting has tremendously lowered my credit score and created a hardship for me when applying for new credit. 

The F.C.R.A holds creditors liable for {$2500.00} per unintentional violation and {$7500.00} per intentional violation. 

Dispute numerous disputes Transunion has fail to investigate and continuously allowed this company tarnish my credit report. 

I am requesting {$7500.00} for the stress and financial damages inquired due to Transunion 's negligence and failure to update my credit report properly and in a timely manner. 

I also demand Transunion to remove this account from any credit report immediately!
