Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Experian and XXXX are inaccurately reporting an active XXXX XXXX account as closed and in collections. This account is still open, in active use and in good standing. I continuously pay the bill every month even to this current date. Reporting this account as both closed and in collections is a factual inaccuracy and a violation of 15 USC 1681 ( b ), failure to ensure accuracy. 

This misinformation has caused harm to my credit report and my creditworthiness, emotional distress and financial losses as i was in the process of buying a home. this error still remains unresolved as of the date of this complaint. 

Both Experian and XXXX must maintain accurate data and correct inaccuracies once identified. This continuous misreporting constitutes negligent or willful noncompliance with federal law. I have attached a copy of my Photo ID and current bill with the same account number, proving the inaccurate reporting
