Complaint narrative:
This complaint is against Experian and XXXX and XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX reported to XXXX, XXXX and Experian " to delete the credit card account noted above from your credit file. " In the process XXXX XXXX associated my SS # with my mother 's name and vice versa. A complaint is currently on file with Consumer Finance # XXXX regarding above-mentioned. As of today XXXX/XXXX/2015 under personal information for myself, XXXX has listed " formerly known as mother 's name ''. Experian has mother 's name associated with my credit file. We are now in a much bigger situation, I believe with Privacy Act Laws. I have been put on hold for financing for a Mortgage Loan. Because of this situation I have also lost the opportunity to access Federal Funds to help with closing costs. This all starts with XXXX XXXX and the way information was reported to the Credit Bureaus but the Credit Bureaus will not accept documentation from me or my mother to correct this error and XXXX XXXX seems to be all over the place. I feel like no one is doing anything. These are errors that have created an identity issue. If I dispute my credit file I risk the dangers of scrutiny by Underwriters and if I do n't dispute who helps? This is a major issue that needs to be rectified immediately not in XXXX days.

I have been sending in documentation that they gave me to give to the credit bureaus to have them delete it from my credit report. Experian keeps coming back saying that the Tax Lien has been released and that 's it. I have been back to the city to verify this a few times and they tell me that this Tax Lien needs to be deleted and that they do n't report to the credit bureaus, so there 's some outside source supplying the wrong information.

Complaint narrative:
I have a credit monotoring service after a breech in my personal information with a hospital I attended. I received an alert that XXXX has made a hard inquiry to my credit reports. I already have a credit account that am currently paying off from XXXX so I sent a message via online to XXXX asking who had authorized the credit inquiry. I spoke to XXXX on saturday and was told that this was forwarded to the fraud department and flagged so no credit increase or credit account was open but they did create higher security features to my account so that no one can use make any changes to my account without my verbal consent. I am not only working to improve my credit but do not have any interest in obtaning a higher credit with kohls. XXXX is aware that this inquiry was not mine and suggested I speak to the credit agencies to have this inquiry removed since nothing was changed in my account. The incident was flagged and nothing happened as a result. YOu may contact XXXX directly to confirm this. I ask that you please remove the hard inquies as i have not authorized these.

Complaint narrative:
I have come to the conclusion that the credit bureaus are violating my rights under section 1681 and that they have received the following : NOTICE OF PENDING LITIGATION SEEKING RELIEF AND MONETARY DAMAGES UNDER FCRA SECTION 616 & SECTION 617. I had previously sent my XXXX and XXXX rounds to the bureaus with no resolution, and round XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15 and round XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I receive the same response each time saying " verified '', and yet section 609 ( c ) states that I am allowed disclosure of the documentation used to " verify '' the accounts. They refuse to provide the documents as well as their method of verification ; the results they send state that I can request such and then they deny this. The accounts I am disputing do NOT belong to me. In addition, there are multiple addresses on my file that do not belong to me ; therefore, I am positive they belong to someone who has used my information in one way or another. I have attempted to contact each creditor and have not resolved with them either. I am going to have to resort to suing the credit bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) the consumer reporting companies role is to review the accuracy and completeness of any dispute by contacting the source ( creditor/s ) and to inform the creditor/s of all relevant information regarding consumer 's dispute. For over XXXX year I have asked why the XXXX XXXX Account is being reported as an adverse account or an account that may be considered negative. The credit agencies have failed to address this very issue. The only responses received from the credit agencies are that the XXXX XXXX account is being reported accurately. 
I have written letters to XXXX XXXX asking why account is being reported as an adverse account or an account that may be considered negative. XXXX XXXX concluded that they have certified that account is reported accurately as open/current with no delinquencies. 
A letter from XXXX XXXX stated that their responsibility to their customers is to report accurate payment history and that they have no control over how the information is interpreted by the credit agencies. 
Why are the credit agencies insist on reporting XXXX XXXX Account as an adverse account or an account that may be considered negative? These credit agencies have yet to address why account is being reported in this manner. Reporting account as an adverse/account that may be considered negative is having a negative impact on credit scores.Items found under accounts that may be considered negative include late payments, charged off or sent to collections, bankruptcies, liens and judgments or account that are not necessarily negative, but that a potential creditor might want to review more closely. XXXX XXXX account does not fit any of these categories.

Complaint narrative:
Hi. My issue concerns the lack of accurate and proper reporting of payments on my credit report. I have never been late with my payments. I have actually paid 90 % of them early. This is concerning my Mortgage payment history with a company named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Once again, I have never been late with even a single payment to them. However, XXXX has reported me as being late 9 times and at 180 days late on each XXXX. I have receipts for each and every XXXX of them to prove it too. I am including them. There are no late payments at all what so ever from the time the mortgage was originated in XXXX until right now. Not a single XXXX. These inaccurate and derogatory payment history reports need to be removed and corrected immediately. I have tried to resolve this very simple and easily solved issue for more than a year at this point between XXXX and the Credit Reporting Agencies. XXXX stated in XXXX to the CFPB that XXXX is reporting correctly and it was the Credit Bureaus that are making the mistake and reporting it incorrectly. 
Having XXXX day undeserved late marks on my credit history is absolutely devastating my score, my ability to gain other or build other credit, my ability to create seasoned accounts/length of time, stripping me of the security of having credit cards or gaining access to loans should any kind of life emergency take place and the list goes on. It is also serving to make it even harder to gain access to a decent Mortgage Lender or Mortgage Rate and get away from XXXX too. 
I am submitting The original Mortgage Docs which clearly state that payments are due on the XXXX of the month and that the payments start on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am also including the letter of transfer from XXXX stating that all payments made on or after XXXX and on will be made to XXXX. ALL payments have been made on time or early the entire time. I am including copies of the receipts of every last single XXXX of them.One may go through from front to back.back to front or however one would like and will see very easily that all of the payments were made on time or early. Next months Mortgage payment will also be made over 2 weeks early XXXX XXXX XXXX ). This issue has stopped me from moving forward and caused a lot of damage. The time is lost, it can not be fixed. It can never be gotten back. This issue needs to be resolved and reported correctly immediately. I have all of the proof in the world that I have made my payments on time. 
The " Account Status '' button up top was the closest option to my situation. Technically, the status of my payment history on my account is incorrect and it needs to be fixed. 
Thank you.
