Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

Complaint narrative:
I am using this CFPB complaint as both a formal complaint and a formal dispute and request for debt validation addressed to LVNV Funding LLC.

I am submitting this request through the CFPB to ensure that LVNV Funding LLC receives my letter and is held accountable for responding properly and lawfully.

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.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the consumer reporting agency failed to meet its obligations under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires the agency to provide, upon request, a detailed description of the reinvestigation procedures used to verify disputed information. I specifically requested the name and contact information of the furnisher, the identity of the person the agency communicated with, and the documentation used to confirm the accuracy of the disputed account. The agency did not provide this information within the 15-day timeframe required by law. This lack of response is a clear violation of my rights under the FCRA.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
Re : Formal Demand for Deletion of Inaccurate Charge-Off Reporting XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX To Whom It May Concern, This letter is a formal dispute under my rights granted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692 et seq. I have reviewed my credit report and found an entry reporting a charge-off for the above-referenced account. I dispute the accuracy, completeness, and legality of this reporting in its entirety.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), you are required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to verify all aspects of this account, includingbut not limited tothe original signed contract, complete payment history, proof of lawful assignment, and documentation showing the calculation of the alleged balance at charge-off. Generic data from a furnisher or automated records are not sufficient verification.

Additionally, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), if this account was ever in the possession of a debt collector, all collection activity ( including reporting ) must cease until full validation is provided. If the debt has been sold, the original creditors continued reporting may constitute furnishing inaccurate information in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ).

If you can not provide verifiable documentation within 30 days from the receipt of this dispute that satisfies the above requirements, you must immediately delete this account from my credit file and provide written confirmation.

Be advised that continued reporting of unverifiable, outdated, or incomplete data will constitute willful non-compliance with federal law, exposing your agency to legal action, statutory damages under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, and attorneys fees. 

This is my final attempt to resolve this matter amicably. Govern yourself accordingly. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
