Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I just looked at my consumer reports and noticed a late payment on an account that I was never late for. 
Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly says. I have never been late on payments and did not provide written consent to report the account : As CLEARLY stated in 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), a consumer report does NOT include ANY reporting containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. The reported information was an EXPERIENCE of mine, which means that the information must be EXCLUDED from my consumer report.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Experian for re-inserting a collection account after I submitted an identity theft report. Experian has confirmed that my personal information was compromised in their own data breach and is currently requesting address verification from me yet they claim to have verified this debt as mine. 

This violates several sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act : FCRA 605B Information related to identity theft must be blocked within 4 business days.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) Investigations must be reasonable. They can not match this account to me without verified data.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) I was not notified within 5 days of reinsertion.

FCRA 623 The furnisher has not provided legitimate proof that this debt belongs to me. 

Experian is reporting inaccurate information and has failed to follow proper procedures under federal law. I am demanding the full removal of this account and written confirmation of deletion.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY.

The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system.

I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.
