Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because Experian is inaccurately reporting a dismissed XXXX XXXX XXXX on my credit report that does not belong to me. I have disputed this erroneous information with Experian on XXXX separate occasions, and each time, the entry was verified without any meaningful explanation or documentation of how the verification was completed. 

Despite my repeated attempts to correct this serious inaccuracy, Experian has failed to comply with their legal responsibilities under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This has caused significant damage to my creditworthiness, including denials for credit and increased scrutiny in financial transactions. 

To be clearXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  have already removed this item, acknowledging its inaccuracy. However, Experians continued reporting violates several key provisions of the FCRA, including : FCRA 607 ( b ) Requiring consumer reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

FCRA 611 ( a ) Requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed information and the removal or correction of inaccurate or unverifiable data within 30 days.

FCRA 623 ( b ) Holding furnishers of information responsible for investigating and correcting disputed data. 

At this time, I am formally requesting the CFPB to investigate Experian 's reporting practices and require them to : Provide documentation on the method of verification used, Identify the source or furnisher that provided this inaccurate bankruptcy data, And remove the XXXX XXXX XXXX  from my file if they can not provide valid, verifiable documentation.

Complaint narrative:
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.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint regarding an account inaccurately listed on my credit report by The XXXX XXXX and reported through Equifax and TransUnion. I previously submitted a formal dispute to the credit bureau ( s ) and provided supporting documentation showing that the account is either not mine, has been paid, or is being misreported.

Despite the evidence, the account remains on my credit report, which is causing harm to my credit score and overall financial situation. I believe this is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires that inaccurate or unverifiable information be corrected or deleted within 15 days of a dispute. 
I am requesting the CFPB to investigate this issue and ensure that the credit reporting agencies and the furnisher of the information comply with federal regulations by removing the inaccurate entry from my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
This is a formal dispute concerning false late payment reporting by Equifax on XXXX accounts : XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX  ( XXXX ). I have never made a late payment on either account, but Equifax continues to report them as delinquent. This is inaccurate and damaging. I am not disputing the accounts themselves or requesting deletion I am specifically disputing the late payment marks, which are false and must be corrected. This violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), Equifax must ensure the maximum possible accuracy of all information they report. Reporting false late payments without proper verification violates this obligation. There is no permissible purpose for furnishing inaccurate payment status under 15 U.S.C. 1681b, and I never gave written consent for false derogatory data to be reported, which also qualifies for blocking under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. Failure to resolve this after multiple disputes reflects willful and negligent noncompliance under 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o. I am demanding immediate correction of the false late payment entries only not account deletion and full documentation of how Equifax verified this information.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

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 ( CFPPB ) 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 Experian inaction violates federal lad and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Credit Information Correction - Compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b and Other FCRA Provisions. 
I am writing to you as the holder of account number XXXX XXXXXXXX for my credit card, to report an issue negatively impacting my credit report. This issue appears to be in violation of the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1666b and other relevantsections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements, including all information required by section 1637 ( b ), at least 21 days before the payment due date. This requirement ensures that consumers have sufficient time to receive, review, and make necessary payments without being unfairly penalized for late payments. 
Additionally, the FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files. 
I have identified that the statements for my credit card, have not been delivered in compliance with these requirements, resulting in the appearance of late payments on my credit report. 
This non-compliance has adversely affected my credit score.

Furthermore, I would like to refer to the Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ), which establishes that creditors must ensure timely delivery of statements to avoid unfair penalties to consumers. 
I formally request that you investigate and correct any inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report. Below are the details of the affected payments : Date of reported late payment : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter to rectify any errors in my credit report. I am willing to provide any additional documentation necessary for your investigation. 
I look forward to receiving written confirmation of the actions taken to correct this information and ensure compliance with the relevant regulations. 
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
