Consumer complaint received 2023-08-07 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
I write this letter with deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding the responses provided by XXXX, Experian, and XXXX to my complaint. It is distressing to note that all three credit bureaus have failed to address the central issue raised in my initial complaint, revealing a lack of accountability and transparency in handling consumer complaints. 

As stated in my original complaint on XX/XX/2023, the core concern lies in XXXX XXXX XXXX  's failure to respond to a Debt Validation request within the mandated 30-day period. The supporting evidence of a certified mail receipt unequivocally proves the mailing and receipt of the validation letter. However, the credit bureaus ' responses exhibit a dismissive attitude towards this crucial matter, evading any meaningful acknowledgment of XXXX XXXX 's untimely response. 

I must express my strong disapproval of such responses, which not only demonstrate a lack of diligence and adherence to an unbiased investigation but also undermine the integrity of the credit reporting process. Consumers deserve proper and transparent handling of complaints, especially when it comes to issues that impact their financial well-being. 

In light of this, I demand that the response to my complaint be submitted on the public portal accessible to all consumers. This measure is crucial to prevent the credit bureaus from concealing their inadequate handling of complaints by mailing the response instead of posting it on the portal and to hold them accountable for their actions. 

Transparency and accountability are essential pillars in fostering trust between consumers and credit bureaus. By publicly acknowledging and rectifying the shortcomings in handling my complaint, you will demonstrate a commitment to improving your services and upholding fair practices. 

I expect this matter to be promptly addressed since the inadequacy of their responses to the XX/XX/2023 complaint should not be counted against me. The delay tactics should not be encouraged by allowing even more time after an inadequate response. Furthermore, all responses should be posted on the portal in addition to the mail. But mailing the response should not be a substitute for posting the results on the portal. 

Please be advised that should there be any further failure to address my concerns transparently and adequately, I will not hesitate to escalate this matter to relevant regulatory authorities and consumer advocacy groups up to and including legal action. 

Your immediate attention to this issue is expected and appreciated.

Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered that one of my creditors has re-added a previously deleted item to my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This has caused significant damage to my credit score and financial situation. Despite disputing the re-added item, the creditor has failed to remove it from my credit report. As a consumer, I am now considering filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to protect my rights and seek resolution to this issue.
