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: SC

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Credit Bureau 's Failure to Conduct Reinvestigation for Accounts with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a critical issue with the reinvestigation process on my credit report as mandated by the regulations outlined in 15 USC 1666 ( b ) and 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ). Specifically, the credit bureau has failed to remove a late payment from my accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ), despite the necessary steps I have taken to rectify this incorrect information. 
I recently disputed the presence of a late payment on both my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  accounts, which have been negatively impacting my credit history. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to an accurate and fair credit report. After my dispute, the credit bureau was obligated to conduct a reinvestigation into the matter and ensure that any inaccuracies are promptly corrected. 
However, despite this statutory obligation, the credit bureau has failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation and correct the inaccurate information on my credit report. This negligence has not only affected my credit score but has also compromised my financial well-being.

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) investigate this matter urgently and ensure that the credit bureau complies with the regulations stipulated under the law. 
I am seeking prompt action to rectify this error and restore the accuracy of my credit report.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccuracies on my credit report related to identity theft. I submitted my initial dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, along with a Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report and additional documentation supporting my claim. However, your agency has failed to meet its obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Violations of the FCRA 1.Failure to Conduct a Reasonable Investigation ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ) Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable investigation upon receiving a dispute. Despite providing a comprehensive FTC Identity Theft Report and detailed supporting evidence, I have not received confirmation of any substantive investigation into the disputed items. 
2.Failure to Notify Me of Investigation Results ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ) The FCRA mandates that consumers be notified of the results of an investigation within 30 days of submitting a dispute. To date, I have not received any such notification, nor have I been informed of the outcome of your review or the process by which my dispute was evaluated. 
3.Failure to Block Inaccurate Information Promptly ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) The FCRA requires credit reporting agencies to block information resulting from identity theft upon receipt of appropriate documentation, such as an FTC Identity Theft Report. This has not occurred in my case. 


Precedent Cases Supporting My Position Your failure to comply with FCRA requirements is not only a violation of my rights but also exposes your agency to liability, as demonstrated in precedent cases : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) : This case emphasized that credit reporting agencies have a duty to conduct reasonable investigations beyond relying on the data provided by furnishers. 
XXXX v. XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) : The Supreme Court upheld consumer rights in disputes related to credit reporting inaccuracies, reinforcing the accountability of credit bureaus under the FCRA. 


Requested Resolution To resolve this matter, I demand the following actions : 1.Conduct a reasonable and thorough reinvestigation of the disputed accounts and transactions associated with my identity theft. 
2.Provide a detailed written summary of your investigation, including the steps taken and evidence reviewed. 
3.Immediately block or remove all inaccurate information resulting from the identity theft. 

If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will have no choice but to escalate my complaint by filing with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and potentially pursuing legal remedies.
