Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
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: CA

Complaint narrative:
The listed entries remain unverified and appear inaccurate. Despite numerous efforts to have these discrepancies properly addressed, no substantial action has been taken. I have submitted all necessary documentation and followed up multiple times, yet the errors continue to appear. This ongoing inaction has resulted in financial difficulties and has negatively impacted my overall well-being. The mental and emotional strain caused by these unresolved issues has been considerable. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to an accurate and fair credit report, which includes the removal of any incorrect or unverified information. I strongly urge you to take prompt action to investigate and correct these items, as continued failure to do so may constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Repossession — Deficiency balance after repossession
Company: Mercedes Benz Financial Services
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the accuracy of the Mercedes-Benz Financial Services account reporting on my credit file. The information is misleading, incomplete, and appears to violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 623 ). 
XXXX. Post-Repossession Late Payments My vehicle was repossessed in [ XXXX, XXXX ]. Despite this, credit reports still show late payment notations after the repossession date, which is factually impossible and misleading to lenders. 
XXXX. XXXX XXXX and Re-Aging The account was charged off in XXXX. However, credit bureaus continue to show charge-off notations updating into XXXX, which may constitute unlawful re-aging of the debt. This unfairly extends the derogatory impact on my credit beyond the legally allowed period. 
XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX repossession, the outstanding balance was approximately {$65000.00}, while the vehicles value was around {$80000.00} during the chip shortage, when used vehicle values were at record highs. Mercedes-Benz Financial continues to report that I owe about {$11000.00}, yet I have not received documentation substantiating how this deficiency balance was calculated ( e.g., sale/auction statement ). 

Requested Resolution : Remove all late payment notations after the repossession date. 
Stop updating the account as a charge-off after the original XXXX charge-off date. 
Provide full documentation of how the {$11000.00} deficiency balance was calculated, or delete it if unverifiable. 
Correct or delete any inaccurate or unverifiable information so that my credit report reflects only accurate, lawful reporting.

Complaint narrative:
on XX/XX/2025 I made a month payment, but I owed 2 months. I spoke to a young lady that day and she informed me of a service shellpoint offer to help me get back on tract. I agreed and she told me that she would call me back within 3 days. 3 weeks later now in XXXX, I called back. I spoke to someone else, but he couldn't find any notes about my previous conversation. He then went through the same process with me again, then he was supposed to call me back in 3 days, 3 weeks went by and I did not hear from them, so I did not want to wait I logged on their website to make a 2 months payments but the website was saying that i could not make a two month payments at that time online.

I called them back, to see if i could pay it over the phone, I was told no unless i was able to pay {$5700.00}. 
then I decided to mail a check from my bank for the amount of {$3.00}. 
I called back again, the person I spoke to was not able to give me any information about my account. 
When I insisted, his only response was that my house should have been in foreclosure. 
I want to keep my house, I want to do my best to bring my payment up to date but Shellpoint is playing a game with me. 
I need help

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because [ Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ] has willfully ignored its duties under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ).

Courts have made it clear that consumers can not be left with inaccurate credit reports : in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX ), the court held inaccuracies must be corrected whether factual or legal ; in XXXX ( XXXX ), the Supreme Court reaffirmed broad FCRA liability ; and in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), XXXX paid {$23.00} XXXX after mishandling consumer disputes. Because of these violations, my credit profile is inaccurate, my access to fair credit has been harmed, and my financial reputation has been damaged.

Complaint narrative:
Unauthorized Hard Inquiry on My Credit Report Dear [ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ], I am writing to formally dispute one or more unauthorized hard inquiries listed on my credit report. I recently obtained a copy of my credit report and noticed inquiries that I do not recognize and did not authorize. 

The inquiries in question are as follows : Company Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year> Company Name : OneMain ( Finance ) Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year> Company Name : XXXXXXXX XXXX ( Finance ) Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year> Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), hard inquiries may only be added to a consumers credit report if they were authorized by the consumer. I am requesting that you provide documentation showing that I gave permission for this credit inquiry. If you can not provide such documentation, the inquiry must be removed from my report immediately. Also, it appears to be the result of a data breach involving my personal information. I did not initiate or authorize these inquiries, and I am concerned that they were made fraudulently by individuals who may have accessed my identity without my consent. 

Please investigate this matter and remove any unauthorized or unverifiable inquiries. I am requesting written confirmation of the results of your investigation and an updated copy of my credit report. 


Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
