Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX I executed a voluntary surrender of my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  property. The outstanding mortgage principal at the time was {$31000.00} and in order to discontinue and surrender the property I paid an amount of {$16000.00}. 

Currently, I am in the process of attempting to re-finance my home and I am now discovering this single " blemish '' on my credit report. It is my understanding that timeshares are supposed to be categorized as " Installment Loans '' per FHA. 

I have continually attempted to reach out to XXXX XXXX in order to gain additional insight and attempt to talk to someone in order to get additional information and correct the reporting but have been given the runaround every or have left voicemails with zero call backs or responses. 

I am have now attempted to reach out to Experian via phone but to only receive continuous redirects to various robots and never being able to reach a person in order to make my dispute. Instead I was left making my dispute online in an attempt to make the correction to my report. Within a matter of 72 hours of submitting my information and evidence the dispute was supposedly investigated and closed with no changes or additional feedback concerning my situation; leaving me to believe no due diligence was performed on my behalf to read my information and insure the accuracy of my credit reporting.
