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

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Urgent Dispute of Reporting Account Not Verifiable as Debt NOTICE TO AGENT IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL IS NOTICE TO AGENT I am writing to express my deep concern and formally dispute the reporting of an account that is currently impacting my life in significant and detrimental ways. This account, which is now considered income according to IRS guidelines, should not be reported as a debt. Which means this account should not appear on my credit report at all, as it is violating my consumer rights. 

Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number : # XXXX The continued Illegal and unfair reporting of this account has made my financial situation extremely difficult. I can not get approved for loans, credit, and even basic necessities, as this account casts a shadow over my creditworthiness. Under 15 U.S.C. 1666b, creditors can not report charges that can not be verified as legitimate debts. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( i ) ( a ) ( 5 ) requires that any unverifiable or inaccurate information be deleted from consumer credit reports. 
This account has profoundly affected my life. Due to the negative impact on my credit score, I have faced serious challenges, including periods of homelessness. Its hard to put into words how deeply this has affected menot just financially, but emotionally as well. The stress and degradation of my self-worth from dealing with this situation have been overwhelming. I never imagined that an unresolved account could lead to such dire consequences.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This account shows conflicting dates of last activity across the credit bureaus. XXXX reports the last active date was XXXX, while TransUnion reports that nearly one month later. This inconsistency is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as it inaccurately extends the reporting period and harms my credit score.

This is an inaccurate payment history reporting. If the information is coming from the original creditor, the dates should be the same. We can not say this account is 100 % accurate so it is deemed INACCURATE. Please delete from my credit report. 

This inaccurate information falsely manipulates my credit worthiness and its hurting my ability to obtain credit. XXXX looks to have found several inconsistencies and deleted this erroneous information. XXXX and TransUnion failed to investigate the account properly after I repeatedly asked to have the account updated. Your neglect has once again violated my consumer rights. I am demanding a deletion of the following account : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX
