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: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against the three major credit bureaus - XXXX, Experian, and XXXX - for their failure to guarantee the accuracy and completeness of my credit report, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and United States Code 15.

According to the FCRA, Section 607 ( b ) ( 1 ), " A consumer reporting agency shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. '' Furthermore, the FTC emphasizes the importance of accurate credit reporting and states, " Credit reporting companies must investigate the items in question- usually within 30 days - unless they consider your dispute frivolous. '' The FDCPA also plays a crucial role in protecting consumers from inaccurate credit reporting by prohibiting unfair and deceptive debt collection practices.

Despite these legal obligations, I have discovered multiple inaccuracies and discrepancies in my credit report, which can have severe consequences on my financial well-being. As a consumer, I have the right to ensure that my credit report is correct, exact, and free of all inaccuracies.

I would like to bring your attention to the following disputed items on my credit report : Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX These inaccuracies not only harm my creditworthiness but also hinder my ability to obtain loans, secure housing, and enjoy fair financial opportunities. I have attempted to resolve these issues directly with the credit bureaus, but their responses have been inadequate and unsatisfactory.

In accordance with the FCRA, FDCPA, FTC, and US Code 15, I request that the CFPB investigate my complaint thoroughly and take necessary actions to ensure that the credit bureaus rectify these inaccuracies promptly. I also request that you inform me of the steps being taken to resolve this matter and provide me with a written response within the legally mandated time frame. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I submitted a dispute for this account previously and received a response from the credit reporting agency indicating that the account would not be removed because it was verified.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Fidelity Creditor Services and my former landlord, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Despite a lawful court decision stating that I owe {$0.00}, Fidelity Creditor Services is attempting to collect an alleged debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This action not only violates the court 's ruling but also breaches collection laws, using intimidation tactics. When I contacted Fidelity Creditor Services to request the legal basis for their actions, the representative failed to provide any justification and abruptly ended the conversation by hanging up. 

I have attached the court judgments for both myself and my partner. Additionally, I have sent letters to both the collection office and the landlord, stating that their actions are unlawful. 

I request your assistance in addressing this matter and ensuring that Fidelity Creditor Services and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX cease their unjust collection practices. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I bought a laptop from Dell in XXXX and they charge my XXXX credit account ( Comenity ) and they did a pending charge on XX/XX/XXXX and and a final charge on XX/XX/XXXX - both for {$2300.00}. A few days shy of 60 days and both of those charges are still on my credit account and they're reporting that overdrawn amount ( since my limit is only {$3500.00} ) to credit bureaus. I contacted the bank ( twice ) and Dell ( twice ) and they could not care less about fixing the pending charge that won't drop off. They immediately point the finger at the other entity and return to picking their own nose. There is no option with either entity to jump past the incompetent front lines to a competent official who can help.
