Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint against Experian Information Services for the continued inaccurate and unlawful reporting of the following accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX These accounts are reported as derogatory and charged-off/collection, yet Experian has failed to provide any verifiable documentation proving that I authorized, opened, or maintained any relationship with these creditors. No lawful validation or supporting evidence has been presented, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Under FCRA 1681i, a consumer reporting agency must conduct a thorough and timely reinvestigation of disputed information and remove or correct any item that can not be verified. Despite multiple disputes, Experian continues to publish this inaccurate data, demonstrating willful and negligent noncompliance with FCRA 1681e ( b ), 1681i ( a ), and 1681b ( f ). 

The continued presence of these accounts severely damages my credit reputation and financial standing. Experians reliance on unverified and conflicting information, combined with generic and insufficient dispute responses, shows a pattern of disregard for federal consumer protection obligations. These failures have directly impacted my ability to obtain fair and accurate credit consideration.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this compliant against XXXX XXXX XXXX for the inaccurate and misleading reporting of a charged off account on my Equifax and TransUnion credit reports. This account was charged off in XXXX and has remained inactive since then. However, XXXX continues to update the account monthly through XXXX, making it appear active and delinquent. This causes ongoing credit score harm and constitutes false reporting. I formally requested a 1099-C form to verify whether the account was canceled or forgiven. XXXX responded in writing stating, " Account does not meet the requirements for a 1099-C. '' This confirms that the account is neither canceled nor being actively collected. Despite this, XXXX continues to update the tradeline. 
Furthermore, XXXX has already deleted this same XXXX account due to its incompleteness and unverifiable nature. Equifax and TransUnion are still reporting it, violating FCRA 607 ( b ) ( accuracy and completeness ), and XXXX 's continued furnishing of inaccurate data violates FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). 
Requested Resolution : - Immediate and permanent deletion of this XXXX XXXX XXXX account from all credit bureaus. 
- Written confirmation from XXXX stating that all inaccurate and incomplete data has been removed. 
- Assurance that no further updates or furnishing of false information will occur. 
Supporting Evidence Attached : 1. Copy of XXXX 's letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating " account does not meet requirements for a 1099-C. '' 2. Screenshot of Equifax report showing continued monthly updates into XXXX. 
3. Record of XXXX XXXX  prior deletion for incomplete and unverifiable reporting. 
4. Copy of dispute letters sent to Equifax and TransUnion. 
Statement : I am requesting CFPB oversight to ensure XXXX XXXX XXXX corrects its unlawful credit reporting and permanently delete this account.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.
