Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXX ) 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 XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXb ( 2 ) and XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXc-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXn, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I mailed a formal dispute letter to Equifax and Experian regarding a collection account reported by XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ( original creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX, Account # ending in * XXXX ). 
I disputed a false payment entry reported on XX/XX/year>, which I did not make. I requested written verification, documentation, and a full reinvestigation in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), citing violations of 1681e ( b ) and 1681i ( a ). 
Although Equifax responded with a generic dispute result stating the creditor verified the balance, they did not provide : Any documentation validating the XX/XX/XXXX payment, A description of the reinvestigation process, or Any explanation of how the disputed item was verified. 
This failure to provide required information and properly investigate violates the FCRA. I am attaching my original dispute letter and Equifaxs response. I am requesting that the CFPB compel Equifax to either provide full documentation or delete the inaccurate entry from my report.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern : I am submitting this complaint regarding Experian 's failure to properly investigate my consumer report dispute, in direct violation of their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a formal dispute with Experian to correct fraudulent and inaccurate information appearing on my consumer report. Instead of conducting a proper investigation, Experian responded with a stall letter that neither addressed my dispute nor took steps to resolve the inaccuracies. 

I am aware that the CFPB has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian for these very same practices namely, their systemic failure to properly investigate consumer disputes. I am a direct victim of this misconduct. 

As a XXXX veteran who suffers from XXXX, this experience has been extremely stressful and emotionally triggering. I am currently in the process of closing on a mortgage, and I am under strict time constraints with only one week remaining to finalize my home purchase. Experians refusal to lawfully process my dispute is putting my homeownership at serious risk, compounding my stress and potentially causing irreparable harm to my financial future. 

I respectfully request that the CFPB take immediate action to ensure Experian fully complies with the FCRA, properly investigates my dispute without further delay, and removes the fraudulent and inaccurate items from my consumer report. I also request that Experian be held accountable for the injury and distress they have caused. 

I am attaching supporting documents, including copies of my dispute submission and Experians stall letter, should you require further evidence of their noncompliance. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this urgent matter.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal legal dispute and demand for deletion of all student loan accounts currently being reported on my credit file. These accounts stem from educational records protected by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ), 20 U.S.C. 1232g, and their disclosure without my direct, written, and informed consent is a violation of federal law.

FERPA strictly prohibits the unauthorized release of any personally identifiable information from educational recordsincluding financial aid, loan disbursements, and loan balanceswithout the students written permission. You have not received such permission from me, and no such consent exists. Therefore, your furnishing and publishing of this data is unauthorized, unlawful, and actionable. 

Additionally, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) : Data furnishers must ensure all information is accurate and lawfully sourced. If the information is derived from FERPA-protected records without a signed release, its publication is unlawful.

FCRA 1681b : Consumer reports must only be furnished with a permissible purpose AND with the consumers permission where required.

FCRA 1681e ( b ) : Credit reporting agencies must ensure maximum possible accuracy of all data published. Reporting education-based loan data without clear legal standing fails this standard.

FCRA 1681n & 1681o : Willful or negligent noncompliance with FCRA requirements is grounds for civil litigation and statutory damages of {$1000.00} per violation, plus attorney fees.
