XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX DC XXXX Subject : Request for Investigation of Consumer Rights Violations Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally request your assistance regarding a serious violation of my consumer rights related to inaccurate information on my credit reports maintained by Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. I have contacted the credit bureaus multiple time and nothing was never done expect saying that my file was accurate and that is false. There was also an occasion where my birth year was incorrect. 

I have previously submitted letters to the credit bureaus disputing various items that I believe are inconsistent, erroneous, and some of which have been on my credit reports for over seven years. Despite my efforts, including sending multiple letters outlining my concerns, I have not received any satisfactory resolution, nor have I been contacted by the credit bureaus to fully investigate these matters. 

The specific issues I am encountering include : 1. **Inaccurate Amounts** : The reported amounts for several accounts do not align with my records.

2. **Outdated Information** : Some items on my credit report are over seven years old and should have been removed per the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

3. **Lack of Investigation** : I was never contacted by the credit bureaus for further information, which I believe indicates a failure to conduct a thorough investigation as required by law. 

Given these ongoing issues, I am requesting that the CFPB take action to ensure that Experian, XXXX, and XXXX investigate my claims fully and delete any information that is inaccurate, outdated, or a violation of my rights under consumer protection laws. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your support in ensuring that my consumer rights are upheld.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Inconsistent Payment History Reporting : The payment history for this account is reported inconsistently across the three major credit bureaus. For instance, XXXX, XXXX and Experian show 30 and 60-day late payments for the same time period. 

On-Time Payments : I have attached bank statements and payment confirmations showing that all payments were made on time. The evidence provided contradicts the late payment information currently reported by the credit bureaus. 

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
