Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to conduct a reasonable and reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverified accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian alleging systematic issues such as failing to forward consumer provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses and failing to adequately notify consumers of debt 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 experience in action violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in the light of recent CFPD lawsuits highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle and reporting my issues, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claim. They informed me that my lost funds were impossible to recover and that tracking these transactions was infeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams.This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety
