Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian, XXXX, XXXX for their refusal to update my personal information on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a personal information update letter to Experian, XXXX, XXXX, requesting the correction of my address and other personal details. This letter was accompanied by the necessary documentation, including a copy of my driver 's license, Social Security card, and a utility bill to verify my address. The document was also notarized. 
However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response from Experian, XXXX, XXXX stating that my request could not be processed because I did not provide a government ID. This statement is incorrect and misleading, as I had included all required documents, including a government-issued ID, in my initial submission. 
Attached to this complaint, you will find a copy of my original personal information update letter and all supporting documents that were submitted to Experian, XXXX, XXXX. 
I believe that Experian, XXXX, XXXX 's refusal to update my information is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under sections 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ( Compliance procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy ). 
Experian, XXXX, XXXX 's failure to acknowledge and properly review the provided documentation is a direct violation of my rights under the FCRA. According to the FCRA, consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports and must be provided with a fair and reasonable investigation of their dispute. By ignoring the documentation I provided, XXXX has failed to uphold their obligation to conduct a fair investigation, thereby violating my consumer rights.

Complaint narrative:
I am reaching out to formally address and dispute the presence of inaccurate addresses that continue to appear on my credit report. Despite submitting prior dispute requests to rectify this matter, these incorrect addresses persist on record. I now insist on their immediate removal from my credit file. These addresses have no affiliation with me and hold no relevance to my personal or credit history. I have previously supplied the necessary documentation to validate my correct address and demanded the removal of these inaccuracies. However, your failure to resolve this issue despite multiple notifications constitutes a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

The continued inclusion of these false addresses has the potential to cause significant confusion and inaccuracies, which could detrimentally affect my creditworthiness. I strongly urge your agency to undertake a meticulous review of my credit file and ensure that only verified and accurate information is maintained. 

It is your obligation under the FCRA to uphold the accuracy and integrity of the data furnished to lenders and other entities. I expect these erroneous entries to be immediately expunged from my credit report and measures to be put in place to prevent their recurrence.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

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.
