Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable investigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of disputes outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer. 

These are the accounts disputed : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX US Department of Education XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am a mortgage customer with Select Portfolio Servicing XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, UT XXXX ). On XX/XX/year>, I made my regular monthly mortgage payment of {$6700.00}, along with an additional principal-only payment of {$45000.00}. 

Instead of applying the {$45000.00} toward the outstanding principal as intended, the mortgage company applied it to advance payments for XXXX months, effectively pushing my next payment due date to XX/XX/year>. This action has resulted in unnecessary interest accrual, contrary to my request and expectations. 

I have contacted the company multiple times, speaking with several representatives, including XXXX supervisors ( XXXX and XXXX XXXX, but the issue remains unresolved. It has been over XXXX weeks, and the incorrect application of funds complicates future payments and calculations, making it challenging to determine the interest savings I should receive. 

I request the CFPBs assistance in ensuring Select Portfolio Servicing XXXX promptly corrects this error by applying the {$45000.00} payment toward the principal balance as intended. 

Thank you for addressing this matter.
