Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverified accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFOB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, 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, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX has neither corrected nor removed disputed accounts, as Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer. 
I sent certified mail to Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, my payment history showing full payoff with {$00.00} balance, the letter of payoff and title lien release from XXXX XXXX  on or about XX/XX/XXXX, and again on or about XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$27000.00} is showing on my credit report that Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, failed to correct and remove from my credit report. 
Also along with the above documents I sent payment history, account payoff, and closed account showing {$00.00} balance owed for XXXX XXXX Which Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, did not remove {$5200.00} showing owed on my credit report, shows I am late and failed to investigate, even with proof of full payment and payoff of my accounts to all three credit bureaus. 
Also along with the above documents I sent payment history, account payoff, and closed account showing {$00.00} balance owed for XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX Which Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, did not remove {$1800.00} showing owed on my credit reports, shows I am late and Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX failed to investigate, even with proof of full payment and payoff of my accounts. 
Experian, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, has not sent me any responses back to any of my disputes nor correcting the disputes and recently pulling my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX it still shows the discrepancies on my credit report.
