Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant XXXX and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding a XXXXXXXX XXXX credit card account that was paid in full for less than the full balance and closed years ago. However, the account is still being reported as a charge-off by both TransUnion and Equifax, which is negatively affecting my credit score.

This is not only inaccurate and misleading, but the debt is also past the statute of limitations for reporting and collection in my state ( South Carolina ). Continuing to report this as a derogatory account is harmful and a violation of my rights under : FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Inaccurate information FCRA 607 ( b ) Failure to ensure maximum possible accuracy FCRA 605 ( a ) Time limits on negative reporting Despite being paid, the account is still labeled as settled for less than full balance and paid charge-off, which misrepresents the status and resolution of the debt.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This loan was previously under administrative forbearance during the federal student loan payment pause, and I was under the good faith belief that it remained in deferment or forbearance status at the time the reported late payment occurred. 
I did not receive any communication, billing statements, or past-due notices from the loan servicer informing me that payments had resumed, were due, or that the loan was no longer deferred. 
Up until this error my Credit Report has shown On Time payment, even in the month prior to the 90 Day Late Payment status, which directly contradicts the claim that I was 90 days delinquent in XX/XX/year>. Logically, if I was truly 90 days past due in XXXX, there would be no way for XXXX to be reported as on time. This discrepancy proves that the account reporting is factually inconsistent and should be corrected immediately. 
I am requesting that the XXXX late payment notation for XX/XX/year> be updated to XXXX XXXX or removed altogether, as it is the result of a servicer communication failure, inconsistent data, and misreporting. 
Please conduct a reasonable investigation into this matter. If the furnisher can not verify that I was properly notified of due dates and delinquency, and if the timeline of late payments can not be supported by factual documentation, the derogatory mark must be corrected or deleted. 
Please provide me with a written response detailing the outcome of your investigation, including the method of verification used and any documentation reviewed. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
