Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the recent response provided in regard to my complaint filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) concerning the inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit file. I have serious concerns about the validity of credit bureaus verification process and the credibility of the information allegedly used to substantiate this reporting. The CFPB response states that the disputed public record, labeled as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXVERIFIED AS REPORTED, '' has been reviewed and verified. However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX United States XXXX  XXXX that they do not report or furnish XXXX  proceedings information to credit reporting agencies. This official statement from the court raises serious questions about who, in fact, provided the information used in your " verification '' process. Furthermore, I contacted XXXX, a known XXXX-party data provider, and they confirmed that they have no record of the XXXX  account in question. This evidence contradicts any claim that the information was verified as reported. Given that : XXXX. XXXX. The court itself has stated it does not report information to credit bureaus. XXXX, a potential data source, has confirmed no record of the account. It is clear that TransUnion lacks a reliable and valid source to justify the continued reporting of this XXXX  on my credit file. This failure in the verification process constitutes a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Section 611, which requires that consumer reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation to ensure the accuracy of information included in consumer files.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: PREFERRED CREDIT INC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I am reporting inaccurate credit reporting by XXXX XXXX on a collection account related to XXXX. I have been on a payment plan with this agency since XX/XX/XXXX, and I have consistently made all payments on time. 
Despite this, my credit report reflects ongoing derogatory or late payment statuses every month throughout XXXX and XXXX even after I entered the payment plan. The last payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX. 

This account is also marked as In Collections/Charge-off, which is correct. However, the continued monthly derogatory reporting appears to constitute re-aging of the debt, which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and misrepresents the current status of my account. 

I have attempted to resolve this directly with the collection agency and the credit bureaus, but the inaccurate reporting remains.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have never legally gone by these personal information nor do not currently reside at the listed residence. The inclusion of inaccurate aliases and unrelated or outdated addresses not only violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) which requires credit reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy but also creates a serious risk of identity confusion and impairs my ability to obtain credit under accurate and fair conditions. The presence of such erroneous personal information also raises concerns of data mishandling, especially in light of recent national data breaches. Despite previous attempts to have this information corrected, Bureaus might have failed to remove the incorrect aliases and address entries, even though I have never used these names and do not reside at the listed locations.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the consumer reporting agency has included unauthorized hard inquiries on my credit report, which were not initiated by me. This is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and ( B ) ( i ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ) ( 5 ). These sections prohibit reporting inquiries not initiated by the consumer unless specific conditions are met, such as prior written authorization or a firm offer of credit. I did not authorize these inquiries and never provided my written consent. As such, their presence on my credit report is unlawful. The consumer reporting agency has also failed to provide evidence of permissible purpose or documentation containing my signature authorizing these inquiries.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting a goodwill adjustment for a XXXX late payment reported on my XXXX XXXX credit card account ( ending in XXXX ). I am a co-applicant on the account, which is shared with my mother, and the missed payment was a one-time, unintentional oversight. As soon as I became aware of the issue, we paid the full balance immediately and the account has remained in good standing with a {$0.00} balance. 

I have been a XXXX XXXX customer since XXXX, with multiple accounts in good standing and no prior late payments. I mailed certified goodwill request letters on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX to the Collections Correspondence department, Executive Office, and the Office of the CEO. XXXX XXXX confirmed receipt of my letters and confirmed in writing that I am a co-applicant on the account. 

I received a phone call from a XXXX XXXX representative declining the goodwill adjustment despite the account being paid in full, the isolated nature of the incident, and the fact that it is negatively affecting my ability to secure an XXXX loan and assist my daughter with a vehicle lease. These are significant, time-sensitive events for my family. 

I am not disputing that the late payment occurred. I am simply asking for a one-time goodwill adjustment in light of my XXXX years of customer loyalty, my otherwise perfect payment history, and the immediate resolution of the issue.
