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: MA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I identified an account labeled as " DEPTEDXXXX '' on my credit report, which was marked as past due. Upon contacting XXXX, a representative confirmed that there is no payment required to rectify this error and that the collection agency listed is associated with XXXXFederal Student Aid. Despite this, the representative stated that there is " really nothing I can do '' to amend this misinformation. 

Additionally, I have noticed three to four accounts from " XXXX XXXX '' on my credit report that are inaccurately reported. Given the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's ( CFPB ) recent legal actions against Experian and XXXX for failing to properly investigate consumer disputes and maintain accurate credit reports, I am concerned that these inaccuracies may be a result of similar negligence. These errors have the potential to adversely affect my creditworthiness and financial well-being. 

XX/XX/year> : Contacted XXXX to dispute the incorrect past due status. 

XX/XX/year> : Reviewed my credit report and identified inaccuracies related to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts. 

These inaccuracies on my credit report are unwarranted and could negatively impact my credit score, potentially affecting my ability to secure loans or favorable interest rates in the future. 

I respectfully request that these inaccuracies be thoroughly investigated and promptly corrected to reflect accurate information on my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Lack of Live Customer Support for Issue Resolution Dear Cash App Customer Support, I am writing to formally express my frustration with the lack of access to a live representative when attempting to resolve issues with the Cash App platform. As a user, I expect reliable customer service, including the ability to speak with a representative when facing urgent matters or filing a complaint. 

On multiple occasions, I have encountered difficulties in resolving issues due to the absence of direct human support. Automated responses and limited support options have made it challenging to address concerns efficiently and effectively. This lack of accessibility is unacceptable, especially for financial transactions where timely resolution is critical. 

I request that Cash App improves its customer service by providing a direct means to speak with a live representative for urgent or unresolved matters. Additionally, I would like a response regarding the current protocol for escalating issues when automated support does not provide a satisfactory resolution. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and

Complaint narrative:
" 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. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. ''

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Lexington Law Firm for promising credit repair services that were not fulfilled and charging me upfront fees before any work was performed and without any proof of the work that was done with the cost. This practice violates the Credit Repair Organizations Act 15 U.S.C. 1679-1679j which prohibits untrue or misleading representations and requires certain affirmative disclosures in the offering or sale of " credit repair '' services. The Act bars companies offering credit repair services from demanding advance payment, requires that credit repair contracts be in writing, and gives consumers certain contract cancellation rights. I request the CFPB take action to ensure Lexington Law complies with federal law as these actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and i seek appropriate redress for these violations
