Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Subissue: Investigation took more than 30 days
Consumer Complaint: I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX, Experian and XXXX data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Subissue: Account information incorrect
Consumer Complaint: The credit reporting bureaus XXXX XXXX and exp failed to delete innaccurate acct information. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX created a new acct without my authorization added two years to the original deliquency. Intimidated me with threats of lawsuits as a XXXX citizen I am entitled to fair protection from abusive practices. I paid in settlement 6 credit balances in exchange for agreement to remove the negative reporting and the 2 collection accts I refuse to pay since I have no relationship to them and they add extra fees of close to {$2000.00}. This is an abuse under the regulations of fcra. Since the credit bureaus have not responded to my requests I would like to ask cfpb to help resolve this, I am unable to get a loan now which means no transportation. no employment and this makes unnecessary hardship to pay my property taxes and support my family thru school. Its very disheartening because I know there have been recent class actions against exp XXXX and XXXX as well as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX yet they persist in flagrant violations because of profits received at consumer expense and and somehow manage to pay huge litigation costs and settlements yet continue to flout the laws and regulations which provide equity to lowly consumers.

Consumer Complaint: It is illegal to report transaction history. Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, codified 15 U.S. Code 522a, subsection b states : No agency shall disclose any record which is contained in a system of records by any means of communication to any person, or to another agency, except pursuant to a written request by, or with the prior written consent of, the individual to whom the record pertains, unless disclosure of the record would beto a recipient who has provided the agency with advance adequate written assurance that the record will be used solely as a statistical research or reporting record, and the record is to be transferred in a form that is not individually identifiable. Additionally, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, codified 15 U.S. Code 1681, section 602 ( a ) the legislature states : " There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX, XXXX, and Experian are consumer reporting agencies, and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information isn't shared unfairly and isnt in a matter that would reflect prejudice or biased treatment in public, which is supported by 15 U.S. Code 6801, stating : " It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. '' XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 U.S. Code 1681, section 604 ( a ), section 2 states that : " In general, Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX the financial institution, and the consumer reporting agencies XXXX, XXXX, and Experian do not have my consent to furnish this information in the fashion currently presented in the public, and they surely do not have my written consent. Effective immediately any and all consent to XXXX, XXXX, and Experian, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is now revoked. 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that : " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unlessthe consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. Not only that, my right to make sure my private information isn't shared unfairly and in a matter that would reflect prejudice or biased treatment in public is further supported by 15 U.S. Code 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) stating : " Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. '' This account is an adverse item they are reporting again without my permission, which is reflecting prejudice or biased treatment. 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) ( a ) states : A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( d ) states : Whenever a credit balance in excess of {$1.00} is created in connection with a consumer credit transaction through ( 1 ) transmittal of funds to a creditor in excess of the total balance due on an account, ( 2 ) rebates of unearned finance charges or insurance premiums, or ( 3 ) amounts otherwise owed to or held for the benefit of an obligor, the creditor shall ( A ) credit the amount of the credit balance to the consumer 's account ; ( B ) refund any part of the amount of the remaining credit balance, upon request of the consumer ; and ( C ) make a good faith effort to refund to the consumer by cash, check, or money order any part of the amount of the credit balance remaining in the account for more than six months, except that no further action is required in any case in which the consumer 's current location is not known by the creditor and can not be traced through the consumer 's last known address or telephone number. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX as the creditor and card issuer, is instead illegally reporting to the consumer reporting agencies inaccurate transaction information. All information not provided and verified as accurate from me the consumer is reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A which states : " A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. '' 15 U.S. Code 1681e states : " Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. '' XXXX, XXXX, and Experian are not maintaining reasonable procedures because of the abovementioned laws.

Consumer Complaint: Despite my previous 4 written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. They stated in their responses to my 4 dispute letters that they have verified that the items listed are accurate but they failed to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify these accounts as per my request. The fact that they have ignored my request to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify the disputed accounts is evidence that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts like they said they did. Their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after two written requests is also evidence of their willful disregard of Federal Law.
