Complaint narrative:
This document serves as my formal response to Experian 's refusal to act on my dispute regarding unauthorized inquiries and fraudulent accounts listed on my Experian credit file. Their claim that the dispute " does not appear to have been sent directly by you '' is both factually incorrect and legally irrelevant.

Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), a consumer reporting agency ( CRA ) must investigate any dispute submitted by the consumer regarding the completeness or accuracy of information on their file. The FCRA does not require a dispute to be mailed personally by the consumer ; submission through an authorized representative is valid. This is further clarified in the FTCs Advisory Opinion to Steck ( 1999 ).

I provided : - Proof of identity - An identity theft report under 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( q ) - A list of fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries - A signed affidavit confirming these items were not authorized by me As such, Experian is obligated under : - 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 ( a ) : Duty to block identity theft-related information - 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) : Duty to maintain maximum possible accuracy - 15 U.S. Code 1681i : Duty to reinvestigate disputed information NOW THEY SAY THAT IM NOT ACTUALLY REPORTING THE FRAUD, SO THEY WONT ACT ON MY CASE?

Experians refusal to investigate or act constitutes willful non-compliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n and negligent non-compliance under 1681o. Their reliance on automated dispute systems like e-OSCAR has also been challenged by the CFPB for being inadequate for handling identity theft cases.
