Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX, XXXX and Experian for their failure to respond adequately to my previous dispute letters. I believe my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) have been violated, and I am seeking your assistance to address this matter. On XX/XX/year>, I initially submitted dispute letters to the respective credit bureaus, disputing the accuracy of certain information on my credit reports. My dispute letters included details of the inaccurate information and evidence supporting my claims. As required by law, I expected the credit bureaus to conduct a reasonable investigation into my disputes and respond within the stipulated time frame. Unfortunately, despite my efforts to engage with the credit bureaus and my commitment to resolving discrepancies on my credit reports, I have received little to no response from them. I have not received any meaningful communication acknowledging the disputes I raised, nor have I been provided with the results of their investigations.

What did they do? They did not. This company has not had my interest as a concern.

Money for gas was taken by the bank after having been informed earlier by a member of their FRAUD DEPARTMENT who intentionally LIED to me about credit not given for a dispute that I had said to NOT claim as information was mixed up. 


She quickly said i didn't when I said I wait until I had money in the account to cancel this dispute. One i was under the assumption not once but twice was not active as a few weeks earlier was also told by their FRAUD DEPARTMENT no open cases. And would have only one from XXXX.
