Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

Please review the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my FICO score.

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation.

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate reporting of an account listed as " XXXX '' on my XXXX credit report, reported on XX/XX/year>. Although the outstanding balance for this account is now {$0.00} and the account status indicates " Paid, '' the payment status continues to show as " Charge-off. '' Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 611, I request an immediate investigation and correction of this information. Furthermore, according to FCRA Section 623, the data furnisher has a duty to ensure that all information reported is accurate and up-to-date. The continued listing of this account as a charge-off payment status is misleading and does not accurately reflect its current status as closed with a {$0.00} balance. Additionally, under FCRA Section 609, I am entitled to access and verify all information contained in my credit report, which supports my claim of inaccuracy.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

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 XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
A collection was added to my account on XX/XX/XXXX. I called the collection agency and inquired about why was there a collection reported to my account the collector stated that it is from the XXXX  from the hospital at which I gave birth in on XX/XX/XXXX. I informed the collector that I have moved to a new address since then and has not gotten any communications or bills from this XXXX  and asked why it was reporting in XXXX XXXX  years later. I informed the collector that at the time of the XXXX XXXX I had XXXX which in the state of XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX covers XXXX  during XXXX XXXX. I sent the collector proof of XXXX as well as contacted the XXXX to get confirmation that this is covered and I would not have to pay the amount of {$810.00} and she confirmed. After speaking with the collector I filed a dispute sending email proof of my XXXX and they emailed back with the account number and information informing me that they have now closed the account. I filed a dispute with Experian because I was told in order to get this deleted from my credit report I would have to get in contact with Experian, I filed XXXX dispute and it came back accurate and followed up with a second dispute showing proof of emails sent from the collector showing that the account is closed. Experian then updated the report and stated that the collector disagrees with my dispute but I sent supporting documents to prove that they have now closed the account and the Debt was not owed by me. I am now complaining because I have tried calling Experian and can not get through I want this deleted from my credit report because it is not a debt owed by me and I have had no communications showing that I owed a bill to the XXXX. This is false information and its not getting removed by Experian.

RE: INCOMPLETE, INACCURATE, UNVERIFIABLE PUBLIC RECORD! - DELETE!

Dear LexisNexis,

I have recently looked at a copy of my credit report and see that you still provide inaccurate information about a couple of bankruptcies that were filed. It is my understanding that this information has to be reported correctly or else it has to be removed. I think you are aware of this fact as well, which is why I am confused as to why YOU is still reporting this information to the credit bureaus. I have already spoken with the courthouses in which these bankruptcies were filed. I know that they did not provide you with this information as they explicitly stated that they don't report information to anyone. But I guess you use XXXX  to obtain your inaccurate information from public files. Well if you did your due diligence and obtained the correct information, you would see that the information that you are reporting in regards to these bankruptcies is extremely inaccurate. They were both DISMISSED and never DISCHARGED! My credit is being negatively impacted due to your neglectful reporting and I would appreciate it if you removed these bankruptcies from your system. It is not fair that you can simply snoop around and report only half-truths and cause so much distress.

Bankruptcy - XXXX  
The bankruptcy information in my credit file is a result of the unauthorized use of my social security number and other personal details. These accounts do not relate to anything I authorized or participated in. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is currently investigating the matter. Additionally, the information on my report does not comply with Metro 2 credit reporting standards. I have evidence to support my case. Again, I did not consent to the sharing of my non-public information, and the reporting of these items is neither fair nor equitable to me as a consumer. The following legal provisions outline my rights as a consumer: 15 USC 1681 Section 602 A: Establishes my right to privacy. 15 USC 1681 Section 604 A Section 2: Prohibits a consumer reporting agency from furnishing an account without my written instructions. 15 U.S.C 1681c(a)(5): States that no consumer reporting agency may include any adverse information that is outdated. 15 U.S.C. 1681s2(A)(1): Prohibits furnishing information known to be inaccurate.

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.
