Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: LEXISNEXIS
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Last year I was hit with a {$300.00} fee from my Homeowners Insurance company, XXXX XXXX XXXX, due to an adverse credit report pulled from LexisNexis risk solutions. I was shocked at the time at the amount of money charged based on my credit score being pretty good, but I did not investigate at that time. I just received my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  renewal for XX/XX/23 and there is a {$500.00} charge for bad credit score based on reporting from LexisNexis. That is now {$800.00} in charges for " bad insurance score '' based on credit report from LexisNexis. By the way, this is happening in addition to other massive increases in Florida homeowner insurance, my rate was just increased XXXX! So this time I investigated what could possibly be hurting my score so bad I'm just charged {$500.00} for being a bad person. 


I requested a report from LexisNexis and received it by mail today or at least it was their system for providing an online secured report. It includes their " National Credit File '' Report and the report is very specific that the information contained within is from XXXX. There are two " bad debt '' accounts listed, one for XXXX  XXXX XXXX and another for XXXX XXXX. Additionally, a XXXX account shows three late payments. However, a report pulled tonight live from XXXX shows no bad debt accounts, no late payments to XXXX. All accounts are on time and no late payments reported on my revolving credit accounts. 


Why a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau report on this? Because this has cost me {$800.00} out-of-pocket so far in adverse reactions to this data. The data is from an old XXXX data pull that contains debts and late payments more than seven-years old. So LexisNexis has created this " National Credit File '' that reports old information from other credit agencies as current. Why is this allowed?! In essence, by pulling data as of a certain date from XXXX and then not updating that information and reporting out on it, LexisNexis has violated my statutes of limitations and FCRA via some " combined report '' that contains data that not even the data source currently contains.

Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back. 

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.
