Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I'm reaching out to formally dispute the listing of one or more incorrect addresses currently appearing on my credit report. These addresses are inaccurate, and I have never lived at, been associated with, or authorized use of those locations in any capacity.

Let me be completely straightforward I take the accuracy of my credit report and the protection of my personal information very seriously. The presence of these incorrect addresses is not only misleading, but it also raises serious concerns for me regarding potential identity confusion, file mixing, or worse possible identity theft. I am not going to let inaccurate personal data float around unchecked on a document as sensitive as my credit report.

These addresses are not connected to me, have no relevance to any account I've opened or maintained, and they should never have been associated with my file in the first place. Including false or outdated personal information can lead to misreporting, unnecessary flags, and wrongful credit decisions that I refuse to tolerate.

Complaint narrative:
You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

Complaint narrative:
Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ) ( 1 ) and 1681i, I request that you provide a complete copy of the original signed consumer contract with a wetink signaturea Verifiable, Validated Proofthat you claim to possess for the above-referenced account. Copies of copies are insufficient by law.

Under FCRA 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are legally obligated to verify any account before reporting it on my credit file. If you are unable to provide such proof within 30 calendar days of receipt of this letter, you must immediately delete the account from all credit reports. 

FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) requires furnishers to promptly remove unverifiable information. Under 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681o ), negligent noncompliance exposes entities to actual damages, attorneys fees, and costs ; willful noncompliance under 1681n exposes entities to statutory/punitive damages ( {>= $1,000,000} + punitive ). 

Case law strongly supports my position : - Negligent/willful failures to remove unverifiable or inaccurate information have resulted in XXXX dollar awards ( e.g., XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
- CFPB enforcement actions support similar resultsmost recently, a $ XXXX settlement following procedural failures.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my credit report and found a collection account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX, listed with an original creditor as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, with a balance of {$480.00}. The account is shown as derogatory and opened on XX/XX/XXXX, with a last reported date of XX/XX/XXXX. 

I am disputing this account because I do not recognize or recall ever opening any credit account with XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX. I have never received billing statements, collection notices, or account details from either the original creditor or XXXX XXXX. 

There is a strong possibility that this may be : A reporting error, A case of mistaken identity, or Possibly a fraudulent account opened without my knowledge. 

To date, no documentation has been provided to verify that this debt belongs to me. It is negatively impacting my credit and appears to have been reported without proper validation.
