Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX  and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX, This is to inform you that I've recently pulled my credit report and noticed that there's a collection from your agency on my credit report for a unknown account ( XXXX ). I have never been notified of this collection. However, this letter does not imply that I refuse to pay this debt. Rather, I would like to dispute your claim. 

As per the FDCPA, I have the right to request a validation of this debt. I request you to prove that I am indeed the party who is by contract obligated to pay off this debt. 

I hope you are aware of the fact that reporting any invalidated information to major credit bureaus may constitute defamation of character, as negative listing on credit report does not allow me to enjoy the benefits of good credit. In addition, you must also be aware that until you validate this debt, you can neither continue collection activities nor report this information on my credit report. I'm sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request is likely to put your company in serious legal trouble with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and other state/federal agencies. 

Please attach copies of the following documents : -Agreement with your client that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt. 
-Agreement that bears signature of the alleged debtor wherein he promises to pay the creditor. 
-Complete payment history on this account so as to prove that the debt amount you wish to collect is correct. 

Thank You

Complaint narrative:
On Friday at XXXX XXXX., I called XXXX 's customer service to initiate a dispute regarding this bankruptcy. I was informed that XXXX had previously conducted an investigation and that the bankruptcy was verified, and would therefore remain on my credit report. However, I never received any formal verification letter, only a verbal notification indicating that the bankruptcy would stay on my report. 

During the call, the representative informed me that she could not record the conversation, although XXXX could do so. She also stated that the verification of the bankruptcy was conducted through the court. I immediately explained that I have an official letter from the court ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) stating that the court does not share information with third parties such as credit agencies. I requested to speak with a supervisor, who initially refused to initiate a new dispute, which I consider to be fraudulent and harmful. 

Eventually, after my insistence, the supervisor did initiate the dispute, although I was not provided with clear details on how the verification process would proceed. 

I believe that XXXX  actions are fraudulent and damaging, as it has caused significant harm by keeping inaccurate information on my report without proper verification.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am extremely disappointed and frustrated to find negative items in my credit profile. It is simply unacceptable and outrageous that such baseless claims have been reported against me. I demand that you immediately remove any derogatory information about me from your records! These allegations against me are completely false, and I have yet to receive any substantial evidence to support them. Your report contains numerous deviations from mandatory reporting standards, which means that the information in it can not be accurate and complete. I am challenging you to provide me with documented proof that the information you have reported is accurate and in compliance with all the relevant regulations. According to 15 U.S.C 1681e and 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ), it is your responsibility to furnish accurate and truthful information about me. You have also failed to conduct a reasonable investigation of my disputes. Any mistakes in reporting can seriously impact my reputation and financial standing, and I demand that you take this matter seriously. Your carelessness and unethical practices are unacceptable, and I expect you to investigate the validity of the inaccurate items in your report and replace them with accurate ones or remove them altogether. You must protect my rights and ensure that your reporting meets the highest standards of accuracy and integrity. I will not hesitate to take further action if you fail to address this matter properly. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Sections 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 623 ( a ) ( 2 ), I am disputing the inclusion of incorrect and outdated personal information on my credit report. The inaccurate data reported negatively impacts my creditworthiness and violates my rights under federal law. Delete this from my personal credit report now!
