Consumer complaint received 2025-08-13 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX continues to report a charged-off account on my credit file, despite having issued IRS Form 1099-C for the cancellation of this debt in XXXX. This cancellation is also documented in my official IRS Wage and Income TranscripXXXX, confirming that XXXXXXXX XXXXk discharged the debt and reported the canceled amount to the IRS as income. 

Despite this, the account is still being reported to the credit bureaus with a balance, charge-off status, and derogatory payment history. This is inaccurate, misleading, and violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), IRS regulations, and Metro 2 credit reporting standards. 

I previously submitted disputes to XXXX Equifax, and XXXX with supporting documents, including the 1099-C and IRS transcript XXXX The CRAs stated the information was verified, but it remains materially false based on the evidence. XXXX XXXX, as the furnisher of the data, is responsible for correcting or deleting inaccurate information once the debt has been canceled. 

I am now escalating this issue to the CFPB because XXXX XXXX is furnishing data that contradicts official IRS filings and is failing to fulfill its obligations under FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) and 1681s-2 ( b ). This continued inaccurate reporting is harming my credit profile and financial opportunities. 

I respectfully request the CFPB to review this matter and require XXXX XXXX to immediately delete or update the account to reflect a {$0.00} balance and non-derogatory status in accordance with federal law and tax reporting obligations.

Complaint narrative:
LVNV Funding LLC, through Resurgent Capital Services, is attempting to collect on an alleged XXXX XXXX XXXX account ( # XXXX, {$2600.00} balance ) without meeting the strict statutory requirements for debt validation. 

Despite multiple written demands, they have failed to produce all required documentation, including : Original Credit Agreement Required under FDCPA 809 ( b ) / 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) to verify the debt.

Full Itemized Statement Necessary under FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) / 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) to ensure accuracy of the reported amount. 

Forward Flow Agreement & Chain of Title Required to prove lawful transfer under UCC 9-406 and to satisfy FDCPA verification obligations. 

Complete Payment History Required to confirm balance under FCRA 611 ( a ) / 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) during reinvestigation.

Evidence of Prior Dispute Investigation Required under FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 1 ) / 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) after notice of dispute. 

Instead of furnishing complete validation, XXXX has sent non-substantive, recycled statements that fail to satisfy FDCPA and FCRA mandates. Continuing to attempt collection without lawful validation violates : FDCPA 807 ( 8 ) / 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( 8 ) Communicating false credit information after dispute notice.

FDCPA 809 ( b ) Continuing collection without verification.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because my Experian credit report contains multiple inaccurate addresses, incorrect late payments, and unauthorized credit inquiries that have caused serious harm to my credit score and financial reputation. 

Despite my previous disputes, Experian has failed to correct or remove these errors, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Incorrect Addresses : My report wrongly lists the addresses XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as my residences. Under FCRA Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), I am entitled to accurate personal information. These false addresses can lead to confusion, mistaken identity, and wrongful credit decisions. 

Late Payments : The late payments reported on my accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  are incorrect. I have documentation proving timely payments. Experians failure to verify and correct these late payments violates FCRA Sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) and 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), which require credit bureaus and furnishers to ensure accuracy. 

Unauthorized Inquiries : My report shows multiple inquiries by Ally Financial ( XXXX inquiries dated XX/XX/year> ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dates ), XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX none of which XXXX authorized. Under FCRA Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), all credit inquiries must be authorized by the consumer. Experians reporting of unauthorized inquiries harms my credit score unfairly. 

These inaccuracies have negatively impacted my ability to obtain credit and have caused undue stress. I request the CFPBs assistance to ensure Experian conducts a thorough investigation, removes all unverifiable and unauthorized information, and updates my credit report to reflect accurate and fair data. 

Thank you for your help in protecting my consumer rights.
