Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
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: CA

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 a 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 Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
It is not possible to open a checking or savings account at Capital One Bank by personally walking into the bank and opening an account with someone working at the bank. I was told the only way you can open an account is by computer. Also if you already have an account you can't add your wife to the account without the use of a computer. Many people especially the elderly can't use computers.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
XXXXSubject : ** Request for Removal of Inaccurate Collection Entry Dear XXXX XXXX am writing to formally dispute the reporting of a collection account on my credit report, as it contains inaccurate information. The collection account in question, reported by [ Debt Collector Name ], is associated with [ Original Creditor Name ] and is listed under account number [ Account Number ]. 

This debt was fully paid directly to the original creditor on [ Date of Payment ], as evidenced by the attached documentation, which includes [ e.g., proof of payment, receipt, or statement from the original creditor ]. Despite the settlement of this debt, [ Debt Collector Name ] continues to report the account inaccurately to your bureau. This action violates several consumer protection laws : 1. **Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ** : Under the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ), credit reporting agencies are required to ensure maximum possible accuracy in credit reports. Reporting a collection account as unpaid when it has been satisfied with the original creditor is inaccurate and misleading.

2. **Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) ** : The FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) prohibits debt collectors from engaging in deceptive or misleading practices. Continuing to verify or report a debt that has already been paid to the original creditor violates these provisions.

I request that your bureau conduct a prompt investigation under your obligations outlined in the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and remove this erroneous collection entry from my credit report.

Please find the following enclosed for your reference : - Proof of payment made to the original creditor.

- A copy of my credit report highlighting the inaccurate collection entry.

If this collection is not removed, I will be left with no choice but to escalate this matter. I may file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) or pursue legal remedies to enforce my rights under federal law.

Please provide me with written confirmation once this matter has been resolved and the inaccurate entry has been removed.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Sincerely, [ Your Name ] **Enclosures** : - Proof of Payment
