Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation 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 dispute 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 Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), certain adverse information, including late payment entries, must be removed from a consumers credit report after a specific period of time.

The late payment in question may be outdated or inaccurately reported. Therefore, I am requesting that you investigate and, if necessary, remove this entry from my credit report.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from reporting certain types of adverse information after the following timeframes : Late payments and other delinquencies must be removed after 7 years from the date of the original delinquency.

Other adverse information, such as collections or charge-offs, must also be removed after 7 years.

The presence of this late payment on my credit report is damaging to my creditworthiness. If it can not be verified or if it exceeds the permissible reporting period, I request that it be promptly removed.

Please investigate this matter and provide a written confirmation once the investigation has been completed and the necessary corrections have been made.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any additional information. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) Requirements Relating to Information Contained in Consumer Reports This section of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) outlines time limitations on how long certain negative information can appear on a consumer 's credit report : Late payments and other delinquencies must be removed from the credit report after 7 years from the date of the original delinquency.

I am seeking assistance with a payment issue involving Bank of America. On XX/XX/2024, I made a payment of {$200.00} through their mobile app, which was successfully debited from my XXXX XXXX account on XX/XX/2024.

XXXX. I did not use physical checks ; this was an electronic transaction.

3. Bank of America failed to notify me of any issue until four months after the payment.

Despite multiple attempts to resolve the matter with Bank of America, their representatives insist the payment was not received, while XXXX XXXX has conducted two investigations confirming otherwise and provided a trace number proving the funds were sent.

This matter has been ongoing for more than three months, despite my being a customer for 16 years. If unresolved, I will escalate this case to the appropriate authorities.

Complaint narrative:
There are collections on my account that do not belong to me and addresses that do not belong to me. Im a victim of identity theft Ive sent in copies of ftc report police report and proof of new address and no updates or responses have been sent. I was apart of the data breach. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, the Equifax credit bureau publicly revealed its computer networks had suffered a data leak that exposed the personal information of XXXX XXXX consumers, a number later raised to XXXX XXXX. This is against the law. Ive contacted each credit bureau numerous times and was told that I will have results within 60 days and that was on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and today is XX/XX/XXXX. The first contact was XX/XX/XXXX and I am outraged by the false follow ups delays and inaccurate info. The collections listed on my account are inaccurate and false reporting I have attached proof of my only listed address that has been associated with me. I have no had a lease in my name and medical bill. Please advise Notice of Complaint****Pending Lawsuit****** ( Pending Date XX/XX/XXXX ) Re : Intent To File Lawsuit for FCRA Violation This is a warning. 
****This letter indicates a possible or impending danger, problem, or other unpleasant data********. 
It is a crime to threaten lawsuit with no intention of doing so, therefore you can take heed that I am very serious about filing suit against your company. I have sent 4 previous letters to you, all by certified mail requesting that you XXXX Equifax and XXXX remove inaccurate information from my file and you have failed to do so. 
Accordingly, I can show a judge that these accounts are inaccurate and that you violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act by ignoring my requests to investigate the items. They have violated many laws. My previous letters ( all sent by certified mail ) stated my reasons for an investigation and these reasons were not frivolous in any way. 
If this final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of these accounts in question, and send proof to me of said investigation, I will file a civil suit in my county for damages and you can travel to defend yourself. 
I take my credit very serious and your lack of professionalism and assistance disappoints me. I am well aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I intend to pursue them to the maximum with a complaint to the attorney general and federal court. 
Under the XXXX XXXX XXXX Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the CFPB is authorized to take action against institutions engaged in unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices, or that otherwise violate federal consumer financial laws. Under the consent order, you may pay a {$3.00} XXXX penalty if civil penalty under enforcement action. The CFPBs investigation into these matters has been ongoing for nearly three years I await your response
