Consumer Complaint: Experian is reporting inaccurate accounts and information on my consumer in which I've previously sent them dispute letters to investigate these accounts. They responded that they are verified and accurate but never provided any documentation of proof. The accounts listed in my dispute never belonged to me nor do I have knowledge of who they are asking to collect debt. Ive reached out to the creditor asking them to verify this debt, which they couldnt. How can I owe them a debt if there was no agreement set in place? I understand that it is Experians duty to do whats fair and equitable for the consumer and it isnt fair that they failed to properly investigate these accounts. Anything thats inaccurate or not verifiable must be removed from my consumer report immediately. Included in my complaint is a new dispute letter in which I ask Experian to thoroughly investigate these accounts and remove anything thats inaccurate or Non verifiable. Violations committed by Experian : 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports 15 U.S. Code 1681 - Congressional findings and statement of purpose 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information 15 U.S. Code 1681a - Definitions ; rules of construction 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy
