Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a written request to Experian Credit Solutions informing them of two accounts reporting incorrect information on my credit report. I attached to the letter, a copy of my report and detailed the information that was incorrect on both accounts. Specifically, both XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) are employing the commonly used tactic of " re-aging '' collection accounts to circumvent the FCRA and allow the account to be reported for more than seven ( 7 ) years. I notified Experian of this illegal tactic and instead of actually conducting an investigation into the accounts, Experian used an algorithm-based investigation and generated an automatic decision showing the accounts as " Verified and Updated. '' However, the collection agency did not provide the information requested nor did they update any incorrect information. The collection agency simply re-submitted identical information ( still incorrect ), provided no supporting documents, and Experian validated the information. This is completely unacceptable. For consumers to trust and rely upon the Credit Bureaus, the Bureau has a duty to objectively investigate consumer disputes. Experian conducted NO investigation and simply verified inaccurate information.
