Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
PayPal 's account front page is so ridiculously cluttered up with advertisements that it is practically unusable. Years ago, this was a simple, useful page with the necessary account details and nothing else. Now, a small, barely visible account balance line is completely overpowered by numerous tabs offering anything imaginable, except information relevant to the account. Some of these pop up randomly and take over the screen, creating further confusion and the possibility of error.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
on XX/XX/XXXX i receive a copy of my credit report # XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX, this report comes with a lot of account that they do not belong to me and i want them to be deleted from my credit report this account are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$XXXX} mark as charge off, XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$XXXX} mark as charge off, XXXX Funding partial acct # XXXX for {$XXXX} mark as collection, XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$XXXX} mark as charge off. Me personally call all of them over the phone and they confirm that i do not have any account with them this call was made on XX/XX/XXXX. This only confirm that Experian is not doing their job, and they are just reporting automatically what they have in their system, and they are not conducting any investigation according to the laws, this is why CFPB is suing them for the same exact reason. 

I am writing to formally dispute multiple inaccuracies on my credit report. I believe these entries have not been properly investigated as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates credit reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable investigation when a consumer dispute information. 

As you be aware, the consumer financial protection bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian for failing to conduct legitimate investigations into consumer disputes. This action reflects a concerning pattern of non-compliance and negligence, which directly undermines the integrity of the dispute process.
