Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my continued frustration and dissatisfaction with the handling of my third attempt to correct the late open accounts on my credit file. Despite my repeated efforts and submission of relevant documentation, the response from your company has been inadequate and fails to rectify the errors that are negatively impacting my credit profile. 

Despite providing comprehensive documentation and evidence clearly indicating the incorrect reporting of late open accounts, the responses I have received thus far have been unsatisfactory and have provided no indication of progress towards resolution. This ongoing lack of accountability and transparency has left me feeling frustrated and disillusioned with your company 's ability to handle this matter effectively. 

Furthermore, the presence of these inaccuracies on my credit file has had significant consequences on my financial well-being. I have experienced difficulties in obtaining credit and have been subjected to unfavorable terms and conditions due to these errors, which are entirely unjustified and preventable. 

Failure to address this complaint promptly and satisfactorily will leave me with no choice but to escalate this matter to the relevant regulatory authorities and seek legal recourse to protect my rights and interests. With this, I am asking for your assistance to correct these accounts in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding unresolved inaccuracies on my credit report held by Equifax. Despite my numerous attempts to resolve this issue, including sending certified letters in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, the errors remain uncorrected, significantly impacting my life and infringing upon my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

For example, I was recently denied a job offer due to the inaccuracies on my credit report. I have also been denied credit for a car loan and a mortgage, which has limited my ability to purchase a home. This has caused me significant financial hardship and stress. 

Therefore, I urge the CFPB to intervene and ensure a thorough investigation by Equifax into the disputed accounts listed below : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I request the CFPBs assistance in rectifying this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
