Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
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: CT

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my credit report regarding a charge-off. The account in question is listed as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Charge-Off : XX/XX/year> It has come to my attention that the charge-off is being reported month after month on my payment history, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should only be reported once, corresponding to the date it was charged off. 
The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score. Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper. 
I request that you promptly investigate this account and correct the inaccurate information by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide me with a confirmation of these corrections. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
It is crucial that consumer reporting agencies uphold their grave responsibilities when it comes to the handling of consumers personal credit files. After performing a re-investigation upon my credit file for accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX pursuant to 15 USC 1681ia1a, your company failed to follow proper procedures in regard to correspondence to me the consumer, in the handling of the reinvestigation. As clearly outlined within, 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ) ; 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy Subchapter 7 states the following ; ( 7 ) Description of reinvestigation procedure A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a detailed description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. Further outlined within 15 USC ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) ; ( 6 ) Notice of results of reinvestigation ( A ) In general A consumer reporting agency shall provide written notice to a consumer of the results of a reinvestigation under this subsection not later than 5 business days after the completion of the reinvestigation, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by other means available to the agency. ( iii ) a notice that, if requested by the consumer, a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information shall be provided to the consumer by the agency, including the business name and address of any furnisher of information contacted in connection with such information and the telephone number of such furnisher, if reasonably available. The correspondence mentioned above was NEVER made to me and therefore, your company is in direct violation of the FCRA and is now liable for monetary damages detailed within 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o. Not only was a proper reinvestigation not performed as the derogatory account mentioned is erroneous to begin with, your agency failed to follow the FCRAs clear rules in the handling of correspondence to me in association with the account in question. Please delete this erroneous account as I have sought legal counsel in this matter and intend on seeking damages associated with this complaint if this issue is not resolved. Thank you for your time.

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the inclusion of an accounts on my personal credit report, as it violates consumer protection laws. 

These are a business accounts, not personally guaranteed by me, and should not appear on my personal credit report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681. Only accounts for which a consumer is personally liable should be reported. Listing this account as a personal obligation is both inaccurate and unlawful under the FCRA and other consumer protection laws.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

Complaint narrative:
I started getting insufficient charges around XX/XX/XXXX. I had my XXXX and my XXXX XXXX  connected to my Navy Federal credit Union bank account. At the time, I had a small business and there was plenty of money in my XXXX XXXX and XXXX accounts. I called and spoke with customer service several times in reference to these transactions. They were starting to become more frequent and I asked the rep if I had money in my XXXX or XXXX XXXX why am I being charged for insufficient funds. Seems to me to keep Me from avoiding overdrafting, you guys can take the money out of my alternative accounts thats attached to my Navy Federal account. It only made sense to me. Needless to say, the overdrafts were charged so much that I had to close my Navy Federal checking and savings account along with my business, checking and savings accounts due to the overdraft fees. Subsequently, my credit report now has the negative entries from the closed accounts and is stopping me from getting further credit. These overdraft fees have caused a major headache in my life. I was charged {$20.00} by my bank on each of the following dates in XXXX. There may be more prior to this date. I can provide a copy of my bank statements to corroborate this.
