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 Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Dispute of Invalid Accounts on My Credit Report I am formally disputing the inaccurate accounts appearing on my credit report from XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and US Bank. These accounts have been closed and sold to third-party companies that do not have the legal right to collect or report these debts in my name. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), inaccurate or unverifiable accounts must be removed from my credit file immediately.

I have already filed a report with the FTC regarding these violations, and I am now requesting that the CFPB take action to ensure compliance with federal law. These accounts should not be listed on my credit report, and the companies reporting them must be held accountable for failing to correct these inaccuracies. 

Please investigate this matter and require the credit bureaus and data furnishers to REMOVE these accounts immediately. I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
My Experian account has been taken over by an identity thief, and Experian has failed to secure my personal data despite multiple layers of protection. 

My Social Security number has been compromised for years, and I had a credit freeze, fraud alerts, and multifactor authentication ( MFA ) in place. Still, the thief was able to bypass these safeguards and access/manipulate my credit.

To make matters worse, I am now locked out of my own Experian account. Ive attempted to recover access through Experian 's support system, but there is no effective escalation path. I submitted a support ticket but have received no response, and their fraud line is inaccessible.

I am concerned that Experians authentication process is vulnerable and allowing unauthorized changes to my file, which directly undermines the purpose of credit freezes and MFA.

I request immediate action to : Regain secure access to my Experian account Reinstate and harden my credit freeze Investigate the unauthorized activity Strengthen authentication and notify me of any future access attempts Experians failure to safeguard my credit file is placing me at ongoing financial risk.
