Credit reporting

Complaint #1797193 submitted on 02/22/2016 relating to Experian. Complaint relates to Credit reporting - Incorrect information on credit report Information is not mine.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Monday 22nd February 2016.

Narrative (may be redacted).

First contact was via phone on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to inform them that I was denied a credit line XXXX XXXX, XXXX and that I have pulled my reports from all three bureaus to find fraudulent accounts opened in my name that are now derogatory. They instructed me to forward documentation on experian.com/upload.
I uploaded the following documents : FTC ID Theft Fraud Affidavit City of XXXX Police Report I contact Experian on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to see if they have received the documentation. They informed me that they have received it and would update me within 30 days.

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I received a letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX notifying me of their dispute and investigation decision. I wondered if they even did an investigation. The letter stated to contact XXXX ( Mortgage Fraud Account ) and XXXX ( Cellular Account Fraud ) directly.

I contaced XXXX immediately and found out they do not have a fraud department nor would provide me with the lenders direct contact information. I also contacted XXXX and all they wanted was me to pay the balance on the fraudulent account.

I then sent certified mail with return receipt to Experian on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX which contained a letter to update my personal information to the correct information, block the fraudulent accounts, remove inquiries due to fraud ID theft, to inform all creditors that issued credit in the past year that I am a victim of fraud and ID theft, and to remove me from all promotional mailing lists. The letter included the following : A copy of my passport ( Govt issued ID ) A copy of my car insurance statement ( To verify my address ) A copy of the FTC Fraud ID Theft Affidavit A copy of the Police Report A copy of the FCRA I did this to ensure that they had all documents to perform all the things requested and to understand that it is my consumer right to request this.

Experian received letter on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX.

Experian sent me a letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, requesting for the same information already sent in order to block the items.

I called Experian today, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, to see why. They stated that the police report was invalid and the the FTC Report was invalid. I explained to them that all information sent was valid. I explained to the rep that XXXX received the same documentation and was able to rectify the errors on the report immediately. The rep offered an Experian product since I was a victim of fraud. I declined the offer and hung up.

Have you dealt with Experian?
