Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable investigation of disputed information, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected or removed disputed items despite evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint against Experian RentBureau regarding their refusal to comply with my request to freeze my credit report, despite their classification as a credit bureau under federal regulations.

I mailed a written request to Experian RentBureau requesting a credit report freeze, as permitted under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). However, I did not receive any response from them regarding my request. Subsequently, I contacted their customer service department via phone to follow up on the matter. During the call, a representative informed me that they do not freeze credit reports, which contradicts their obligations as a recognized credit bureau.

I believe Experian RentBureaus refusal to freeze my credit report is in violation of my consumer rights under federal law. As a fair resolution, I am requesting that Experian RentBureau promptly freeze my credit report as originally requested and provide written confirmation of the freeze.

I kindly ask for your assistance in investigating this matter and ensuring that Experian RentBureau complies with federal regulations and consumer rights.
