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: CA

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I have formally disputed, multiple times ( once in XX/XX/XXXX and again in XX/XX/XXXX ), the continued inclusion of a reference to an adverse event that occurred over XXXX  years ago on my Experian credit report. 

The details of the disputed item, which pertains to an account with the original creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), with the account number : XXXX, are as follows : In XXXX of XXXX, my vehicle was repossessed. The day it was repossessed I called the company and paid the fees, and it was reinstated. The late payments that correspond with the repossession are no longer listed because it has been over XXXX  years ; however, there is still a reference to it on my credit report in the comments section which states : " Redeemed or reinstated repossession ''. In accordance with the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the credit reporting time-period for this adverse event has expired, and there should no longer be any reference to it on my credit report. 

Additionally, In XX/XX/XXXX, I also opened a dispute with the creditor, XXXX, and received a letter from them ( which I have attached as evidence ) stating that their research indicates the repossession status on the account should be removed and that they had sent an electronic request to the credit reporting agencies to remove it. 

As of early XXXX, Experian had not removed the comment, which prompted my second dispute with them. In my second dispute with Experian, I included the letter from XXXX stating that they agree the comment should be removed. Within days, my dispute was updated by an Experian specialist with the comment, SEND ITEM ALREADY MATCHES THE DISPUTE REQUEST, and my dispute was closed without the removal of the comment. 

The ongoing presence of this outdated information on my credit report, not only negatively impacts my creditworthiness, its also in direct violation of the FCRA and should be removed immediately.
