Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I sent a dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX through Certified Mail requesting a reinvestigation and the Method of Verification for a bankruptcy on my credit profile. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the original creditor, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file. I have attached copies of the letter from the US Bankruptcy Court stating they dont report to the credit bureaus. I have also attached a copy of my letter from XXXX saying my credit profile is frozen. How is the credit bureau verifying this alleged public record when the third party provider is frozen? Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete the investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ). The credit bureaus has been non-compliant and didnt complete the dispute in 30 days. I further remind the credit bureaus, as in Wenger v. TransUnion Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D. Cal. XX/XX/XXXX), you may be liable for your willful non- compliance. The account in question needs to be removed immediately for violations against the Fair Credit Reporting Act, no validation in the 30 day time period, no validation with the third party provider of the data. XXXX cant verify this account and the Bankruptcy court cant verify Bankruptcies due to privacy laws. The public record is non compliant, inaccurate, and unverifiable.

Complaint narrative:
I believe I and my aunt, XXXX XXXX, are the victims of identity theft. TRS Recovery Services, a Georgia business, has contacted me repeatedly regarding an XXXX transaction for {$29.00} entered into by my aunt. I had nothing to do with the transaction, I but received several notices from TRS as a collection agent. I disputed the charge twice by letter, but TRS continued to contact me. We called to dispute, but TRS did not desist with collection notices. My aunt then paid the claim to make it go away, and then her bank account information was stolen and used in many foreign countries the same day. I have copies of all letters from TRS as well as proof of payment ( even though we disputed the claim ). I can provide all the documentation. I believe this company fished for my aunt 's bank account through a transaction on XXXX that I had nothing to do with and then stole her identity. I would like TRS to stop contacting us, especially since we paid their false claim even though we did not owe it, and not harm my credit history at all. I am only XXXX years old and did not have anything to do with any XXXX transaction and don't wish to have my ability to obtain credit in the future harmed in any way. Please let me know if I can email or fax all documents to you.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020 I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things in my credit report. To this day over about 2 months later, I have yet to receive a response. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) clearly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives me a reason to immediately remove these items from my credit report. It's been about 2 months now so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file litigation due to the stress that was caused to me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX  data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Company: DISCOVER BANK

Complaint narrative:
When I applied for the loan, the interest rate was 4 %. After graduation, I was told that I can defer my loan payments without being informed that this will increase my interest rate. My interest rate is now 6 % and when I check the principal balance, I think they take interest-only payment during some part of my loan time. I didn't understand much about student loan and interest rate until recently that I understand that I realized that I have been tricked into paying more and more interest with not much applied to the principal through the payment assistance that they provided.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
Thank you for taking the time out to read my complaint. I was reported late on my credit report ONE time from Capital One bank. It reported XX/XX/2019. I called and explained that my identity was stolen that month and my bank closed my bank account so the automatic payment did not go thru. I advised them of the issue when it happened in XX/XX/2019 by phone call that it may even be late but I was willing to send in police report and even a letter from my bank to verify. After the investigation on my bank and my funds were back I called capital one bank and made my payment and they still reported it. I have been pleading with them to remove it and no luck. I emailed the ceo, mailed and faxed numerous of letters and still no help. Ive despites multiple times and nothing.
