Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

Company: National Collection Systems, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I received a debt collection notice from National Credit Management ( NCM ) regarding a balance allegedly owed to the University XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). 

I mailed a formal debt validation request to NCM on XX/XX/year>, which was delivered on XX/XX/year> ( XXXX XXXX # XXXX ). I disputed the debt and requested validation per the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). 

Despite receiving my dispute, NCM reported the debt to all three credit bureaus on XX/XX/year>, while my validation request was pending. This is a violation of the FDCPA, which prohibits collection activityincluding credit reportinguntil validation is provided. 

I sent a formal FDCPA violation and deletion demand letter on XX/XX/year>, giving NCM the opportunity to correct the violation. They did not respond to the legal issue. 

On XX/XX/year>, I received delayed documentation dated XX/XX/XXXX, which they claim was validation. However, the reporting had already occurred before this response, which does not satisfy the FDCPA requirement for timely validation. 

On XX/XX/year>, I received an email from NCM continuing collection efforts, again without addressing the FDCPA violation or offering resolution. 

NCM has continued collection activity despite their legal violation and failure to respond properly. I am requesting deletion of the account from all credit reporting agencies and enforcement of FDCPA compliance.

Complaint narrative:
I have repeatedly attempted to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, yet no significant action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the inaccuracies on my credit report remain unresolved. This prolonged issue has led to ongoing financial strain and has severely impacted my well-being. The process of addressing these errors has been both frustrating and mentally exhausting. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial history, including the timely correction or removal of any outdated or incorrect information. I am urging you to take immediate action to either update or delete the reported late payment entries. Continued failure to act would be a direct violation of my rights under federal law. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a timely resolution.
