Consumer Narrative
I want to file this complaint with EXPERIAN. I sent them a letter dated XX/XX/2023, regarding the inaccuracies in my report such as the date of last activity, date opened, date reported, payment status, etc. They took more than 30 days to complete the investigation and they claimed that they did a thorough investigation. However, when I checked my report, I did not see any changes made at all. The inaccurate information is still reporting. My rights have been violated numerous times. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States that I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2. It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instruction. XXXX : Company 's Response In your complaint, you request that information, including a bankruptcy, be removed from your XXXX Credit Report. You also claim that XXXX took more than 30 days to conduct a previous dispute investigation. In response to your complaint : Per your previous request, sent by mail dated XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023, XXXX reviewed your request and informed you that all of the information referenced in your letter is not on your XXXX Credit Report. The investigation results were mailed to you in our letter dated XX/XX/2023, which means the investigation was completed on the same day your request was received. While XXXX does not have public records, such as bankruptcies, on our Reports, accounts on your XXXX Credit Report may still include a bankruptcy status. Currently, none of the accounts on your XXXX Credit Report include a bankruptcy status. You reference Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which permits a consumer reporting agency to furnish a consumer report at the written request of the consumer. However, that is not the only section that authorizes a consumer reporting agency to furnish a consumer report. Section 604 ( a ) lists several scenarios where a consumer reporting agency may provide a consumer report to a third party, including in connection with a credit transaction ( Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( A ) ). All of the other information referenced in your complaint is not on your XXXX Credit Report. The investigation results have been mailed to you separately. Please visit our XXXX XXXX on XXXX for more information regarding your XXXX Credit Report.
