Complaint narrative:
I am requesting the immediate deletion of the unverified items listed below, as required under Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), and 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA. Despite three previous written requests, these items remain on my credit report without proper verification. You have not provided original documentation, such as a signed contract, to substantiate these entries. Additionally, you have failed to outline the method of verification, as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). If these unverified items are not removed immediately, I will escalate this matter by filing a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and considering legal action.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.
