Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

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.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because fraudulent and unauthorized inquiries have been reported on my consumer credit report as a result of identity theft. These inquiries were not initiated or authorized by me and constitute violations of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 605B [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ], which requires the blocking of information resulting from identity theft, and 604 [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ], which outlines the permissible purposes for accessing a consumer report. 

I have contacted the companies responsible for these inquiries and none were able to provide any valid authorization or proof bearing my signature. Furthermore, I submitted a formal request to the credit reporting agency to investigate and remove these fraudulent inquiries. The FCRA mandates that such information be blocked within four ( 4 ) business days of receiving notice, yet these inquiries remain on my file.

Failure to verify and remove these items not only violates FCRA 605B and 604, but also constitutes willful noncompliance under 616 [ 15 U.S.C. 1681n ], which provides for civil liability. I am seeking the FTCs assistance in ensuring the credit reporting agency complies with its legal obligations and blocks or deletes these inquiries immediately to prevent further harm to my credit profile and personal privacy.
