Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: Kikoff Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
KIK OFF LENDING LLC is in clear violation of the law for contacting a third party or consumer reporting agency with my nonpublic personal information without lawful authority. I obtained a copy of my consumer reports ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) to notice an account furnished by KIK OFF LENDING with XXXX late transactions starting on ( XX/XX/XXXX ). KIK OFF LENDING can not provide me with a copy of an original signed consumer agreement where I gave them written authorization to furnish anything on my consumer report which violates 15USC 1681 ( B ). They also can not provide me with the original statement they sent me 21 days before the XXXX late transactions in this account was reported to the consumer reporting agencies which is a violation of 15USC 1666 ( b ). By furnishing these transactions, they also violate 15 USC 1681 ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) which states all transactions or experiences to any person are excluded from my consumer report which means late or not, my transactional history to any company is not supposed to be reported on my consumer report. On ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I sent KIK OFF LENDING a notice of their violations and demanding deletion of these late transaction or the account they furnished. According to the law referenced, this data furnished is unverifiable, inaccurate, and a direct result of IDENTITY THEFT as per 18USC 1028 ( A ).

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

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023, I scheduled payment, selecting the PAY IN FULL option via XXXX website. I do not shop at this store often, so I pay my bill in full when I use my card. 

The amount was paid and deducted from my checking account, as arranged. 
I never received any further correspondence from XXXX. 
Upon receiving an email from Experian ( the credit reporting agency ) that my credit score dropped XXXX points due to non-payment, I found that XXXX charged an after the fact interest amount of roughly {$6.00} and then charged an additional {$1.00} per month fee for XXXX and XXXX, but NEVER contacted me to pay these amounts. 

After 90 days they then turned this report over to the credit bureaus and have destroyed my perfect credit!! 
Once I was in contact with XXXX, I paid the {$8.00}, but they are refusing to remove this erroneous statement ( 90 days past due ) from my credit report. 
I have since closed my XXXX account. Had I know they could charge interest AFTER THE FACT, I would never have used this card.

Complaint narrative:
I sent a letter on XX/XX/2024, asking for my address to be update so i can remove other address from my credit report that is no longer associated with myself. I emailed XXXX XXXX and he responded that everything was ok and he updated my address. This morning on XX/XX/2024, i get an alert from my credit report saying i added a new address and it was not correct it was bell banks address. I emailed XXXX XXXX again and he said he updated it again. I also called in to express my issue and they said that they updated and it would take about 30 days which is unacceptable. I have a fraud alert on my credit report and this is causing me so much stress. There is a lot of fraud going on and this ran me through the roof. I also asked them for their mistake to waive the 30 day late reporting off of my credit report and still no response. This was an easy fix and now i am stressed out because i have to contact my credit bureaus to fix the problem and wait 30 days for their mistake i want something resolved about this before i take further action. This is not ok due there is a lot of fraud going on so XXXX XXXX can just update my information he needs to be removed from the company because its causing me a lot of stress trying to fix his mistake.
