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:
Experian has 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 unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) 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 nor removed disputed items despite the 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.

Complaint narrative:
" I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent.

You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding Zelle 's inadequate handling of customer disputes and complaints, particularly in light of the recent Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) lawsuit that has brought to light significant systemic issues within the platform 's operations and consumer protection measures. As a frequent Zelle user who has personally encountered and reported multiple discrepancies in transactions, I have found both my financial institution and Zelle 's response to be severely lacking in thoroughness and effectiveness. When approached about these issues, their representatives merely provided the unsatisfactory response that they had no capability to recover lost funds or trace transaction histories, effectively dismissing legitimate consumer concerns without proper investigation. 

The CFPB 's comprehensive investigation and subsequent findings have revealed deeply troubling patterns within Zelle 's operations. The platform has not only demonstrated a consistent failure to implement adequate consumer protection measures but has also inadvertently created an environment where fraudulent actors can repeatedly exploit the system 's vulnerabilities. This systematic failure has left countless users exposed to various forms of financial fraud and scams, with little to no recourse for recovery or restitution. The platform 's apparent inability or unwillingness to address these serious security concerns, combined with their lack of transparency in dispute resolution processes, represents a significant threat to consumer financial safety and well-being.
