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.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. 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.

Complaint narrative:
I am demanding an immediate investigation and correction of inaccurate information on my credit report. Specifically, I have identified several instances of incorrect late payment reporting and unauthorized hard inquiries that violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S.C. 1681. These inaccuracies include multiple accounts, such as those with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, and others, where late payments were reported incorrectly. I request that these be updated to " paid as agreed '' and removed from my credit report as they are not accurate. 

Additionally, there are multiple instances of alleged debts being reported by debt collectors, such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and others. Under 15 U.S. Code 1692g, I am requesting verification of these debts and documentation proving that the debt collectors have the legal right to collect them. Without proper validation, I am demanding the removal of these entries from my report.

I am also disputing unauthorized hard inquiries under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), specifically with XXXX and XXXX, and requesting their removal. 

Finally, I am disputing inaccurate personal information, such as incorrect addresses on my credit report. Under the FCRA, Experian is legally obligated to investigate these disputes and correct any inaccuracies within 30 days, as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1681i. Failure to do so would constitute a violation of federal law, subjecting you to liability under 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o for willful or negligent non-compliance.

I expect a thorough investigation and written confirmation of your findings, as well as an updated copy of my credit report reflecting all necessary corrections. If this matter is not resolved within the legally mandated timeframe, I will escalate the issue through formal complaints to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), or seek legal remedies. 

Your prompt attention to this matter is crucial, and any delay or negligence will not be tolerated.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the ( Equifax ) credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint.

I am filing this FTC Identity Theft Affidavit to report multiple fraudulent accounts and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer Equifax credit report, which I do not recognize and which are the result of identity theft and fraud. These fraudulent accounts include a phone bill account opened at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under account number XXXX  ; a credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX under account number XXXX ; a credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX under account number XXXX ; a credit card account opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX under account number XXXX  ; a credit card account opened at Security Credit XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX under account number XXXX  ; and an account with XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX  ) opened in XX/XX/XXXX. Additionally, several fraudulent hard inquiries have appeared on my credit report, including inquiries from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX all dated XX/XX/XXXX, as well as an inquiry from XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX. These fraudulent accounts and inquiries have led to collections being reported on my credit file. I demand that all fraudulent items be removed from each of my consumer credit reports and that all collection activity related to these items cease immediately, as is my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent chargeoffs, fraudulent late payments, and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I do not recognize the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, or chargeoffs as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections, and chargeoffs appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made, or initiated by me. All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, late payments, and charge-offs are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # ( XXXX ) and ( XXXX ) as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I demand that the aforementioned fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit report and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws.
