Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
A bankruptcy has reflected on my credit report for years. I have contacted XXXX XXXX and they themselves can not verify the debt. I have provided Experian with this proof multiple times and due to their negligence they refuse to properly investigate this matter. Previously, due to this bankruptcy I have not been able to afford representation to sue. That has changed, and I fully intend to sue for ample damages, if they do not agree to settle and remove this from my credit immediately. 

I have also sent a letter certified to Experian.

Complaint narrative:
" I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 
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. ''

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file an official and urgent complaint against XXXX XXXX for reporting a payment as " late '' when it was made on the XXXX day after the due date. This is a clear mistake, and I demand immediate correction to my credit report. 

I made a payment of on my account with XXXX XXXX. The payment was made within XXXX  days of the due date, yet the creditor has incorrectly reported this payment as late to the credit bureaus. This is an unjustifiable error, and I expect it to be rectified without delay. 

It is well-established that late payments should only be reported when they are XXXX  days or more overdue. Since my payment was made XXXX  days after the due date, there was no justification for it to be reported as late. This erroneous reporting is damaging my credit score, and I will not tolerate it. 

I demand that XXXX XXXX immediately corrects this mistake and removes the late payment from my credit report. Attached are supporting documents that prove I made the payment on time, including list the documents you are attaching I expect a prompt resolution to this matter. If the issue is not addressed in a timely manner, I will not hesitate to escalate this matter further and take legal action if necessary.
