Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission identity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any.

information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  for inaccurate and unlawful reporting of late payment information on my credit file. This reporting has caused significant harm to my credit profile, emotional distress, and financial reputation. 

According to my records, this account was opened on XX/XX/year>, with a reported balance of {$260000.00}. However, the late payment reporting by XXXX is inaccurate, misleading, and in violation of multiple federal consumer protection laws. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), a furnisher of information must report data with maximum possible accuracy. XXXX has failed to meet this standard. Their reporting of late payments does not align with my actual payment history, and no proper validation or documentation was provided upon my prior disputes. 

Furthermore, under 12 CFR 1024 ( RESPA Regulation X ), mortgage servicers must respond promptly and accurately to borrower inquiries and notices of error. Despite repeated written requests for validation and investigation of the alleged late payments, XXXX failed to provide any documented proof or proper resolution, thereby violating my rights under federal law. 

Additionally, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) XXXX U.S.C. XXXX ( XXXX ) prohibits the communication of false credit information. Reporting a late payment without factual basis constitutes a deceptive practice and directly affects my ability to obtain fair credit terms. 

This conduct represents negligence, willful disregard, and noncompliance with federal consumer protection statutes. The inaccurate reporting has caused tangible harm, including credit denials, higher interest rates, and emotional distress.

I am respectfully requesting that the CFPB : Conduct a thorough investigation into XXXX reporting practices regarding my account. 

XXXX XXXX to provide complete validation and documented proof of the alleged late payments. 

Require the immediate deletion or correction of any inaccurate or unverifiable negative information from all credit reporting agencies. 

Ensure that XXXX implements compliance procedures to prevent similar consumer harm in the future. 

I am attaching copies of my prior correspondence, credit report excerpts, and any supporting documents for review. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I request a written confirmation of receipt and updates on the progress of the investigation.
