Complaint narrative:
The reporting of this Inquiries/charge-off/collection account is inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable. The furnisher has failed to provide legally required documentation proving the validity of the debt, the amount claimed, or my liability for it. Continuing to report unverifiable and inaccurate information on my credit file is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and my consumer rights. This account is being reported in a manner that is misleading and damaging to my creditworthiness, and I dispute its accuracy in its entirety.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
The consumer reporting agency has willfully violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b Permissible Purposes of Consumer Reports, by furnishing or reporting information on my credit file without any permissible purpose, written consent, or legal authorization. At no time did I grant authorization for this agency to obtain, use, or disclose my consumer information, and the continued reporting of such entries constitutes an unlawful act that compromises both the accuracy and integrity of my credit file. This misreporting has directly harmed my creditworthiness, caused emotional and financial distress, and placed undue barriers on my ability to secure credit, housing, and employment opportunities.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NM

Complaint narrative:
Im reaching out because theres an account showing up on my credit report that does not belong to me. This account appears to be the result of mixed or merged credit information, and it is very clear that this account is tied to someone elses identitynot mine. 

I want to make this absolutely clear : I have no association whatsoever with the account in question. I did not open it, I have no connection to the person who did, and I should not be held responsible for their financial activity. Somehow, my credit file has been inaccurately combined with another persons information, and this is now negatively impacting my credit profilethrough no fault of my own. 

This is not just a mistake ; its a serious error that violates the accuracy standards required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Under the law, you are obligated to ensure that every item reported under my name is 100 % accurate and verifiably connected to me. In this case, that standard is not being met.
