Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION, THE
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I received an email invoice from XXXX for purported services or goods, which were neither solicited nor authorized. Upon alerting my financial institution, Charles Schwab, of the unauthorized transaction, they assured me of an investigation. However, following a superficial inquiry, they deemed the charges legitimate and closed the matter. Subsequently, I engaged with XXXX to address the issue, and while they acknowledge the fraudulent nature of the charges, they require confirmation from my bank indicating the closure of the case on their end. 

Regrettably, Charles Schwab has been unwilling to provide the necessary assistance to rectify this situation, thereby leaving me in a prolonged and frustrating predicament. Despite my persistent efforts, spanning XXXX months, I find myself caught in a disheartening scenario where both companies seem indifferent to the plight of the customer, instead inadvertently facilitating this criminal activity.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am refiling my complaint with EXPERIAN through this complaint. I previously submitted a letter addressing discrepancies in my credit report, including inaccuracies related to the date of last activity, date opened, date reported, payment status, charges, and more. Despite my efforts to bring attention to these issues, EXPERIAN maintains that there are no errors in my report. However, it is crucial to emphasize that this account is fraudulent due to illegal and unauthorized charges. 
The investigation period has extended beyond 30 days, during which EXPERIAN claimed to conduct a thorough examination. Unfortunately, upon reviewing my credit report, I have not observed any corrections. The inaccurate information persists without any apparent rectification. I feel that my rights have been repeatedly violated, particularly as outlined in 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A, which underscores my right to privacy. Additionally, 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2 explicitly states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instruction. 
I am reaching out once more in the hope that EXPERIAN can promptly address and rectify these issues. Accurate reporting is crucial, and I trust that EXPERIAN will uphold its commitment to maintaining the integrity of the credit information it provides.
