Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me.

The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the incorrect reporting of my name in your records. Your files indicate that I was formerly known as XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is completely false. I have never gone by the name XXXX, nor have I ever legally or informally used that name. My legal name since birth is XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

This misinformation has caused me significant real-world harm. On multiple occasions, I have been mistakenly held responsible for debts that were not mine, which has affected my ability to secure housing. The confusion is understandable, given that XXXX XXXX is a far more common name than XXXX XXXX, but that only underscores the importance of maintaining accurate personal data. 

Despite my prior attempts to correct this issue, the incorrect name remains associated with my file. The only action taken appears to be the addition of a Consumer Note in all capital letters, which I did not request. The tone and formatting of that note misrepresent my intentions and may unfairly influence credit or housing decisions against me.

I respectfully request that this incorrect alias be permanently removed from my file and that the aformentioned " Consumer Note '' be removed from my file. Please confirm in writing when these corrections have been made. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
