Complaint narrative:
This is the Federal Trade Commissions opinion regarding this type of account Section 607 ( b ) of the FCRA requires credit bureaus " to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. '' I submitted a dispute directly to Experian regarding my account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX This account has been paid in full as agreed w/ creditor in full and yet is STILL showing a balance. 

This is Experian 's response " The dispute for the account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX that starts with XXXX was not changed as a result of our processing of your dispute. The company that reported the information has certified to Experian that the information is accurate. '' In this case both Experian XXXX XXXX bank are in violation of FCRA as XXXX. Experian did not follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy and XXXX. XXXX is reporting inaccurate and incomplete information. 

Reasons : XXXX. Experian was informed by me that this account was paid in full/ settled in full and is inaccurately reporting a balance. This should be very simple to verify and had they followed " reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information '' this balance, erroneous payment history and erroneous account status would not still be showing there. 
XXXX. XXXX reported a settlement payment as a regular payment ( while still leaving all derogatory statuses and late payment ) and a statement balance after receiving a settlement payment bringing the account to a current and final status where there is no remaining collectable debt.
