Additionally, I have submitted documentation showing the driver of the accident was XXXX yet Lexis Nexis fails to remove the erroneous information from my report.

Complaint: LexisNexis has been reporting inaccurate information that actually belongs to someone else under my name. I have reached out to them several ways. I inquired about the error, but never received an answer. They only corrected the information and sent an updated report. The damage was already done because insurance companies have been charging me based on their reports.

Report improperly shared by CRC
Complaint: LexisNexis Risk & Information Analytics Group , Inc. does not allow opt-out, security freeze or data suppression of it 's Accurint product. When consumers telephone the Lexis-Nexis Privacy Information manager at XXXX they and ask for opt-out and security freeze ( as those terms are defined by federal law ) from Accurint a representative will offer security freeze of their RiskView product or direct consumers to an opt-out page for PeopleWise or KnowX. These products are distinctly different from Accurint, which is regulated by the FCRA. In fact, Lexis-Nexis is aware of this and states on their webpage XXXX that the opt-out procedures stated thereon applies to a " Non-FCRA Opt-out Policy ''. That page invents new undefined terms like " information suppressions '' and conflates the various Lexis-Nexis products without even naming Accurint. It does mention KnowX and PeopleWise but any reasonable person reading the page would think that a person has to be one of " Public and elected officials, including law enforcement officers, and private individuals who are facing a substantial risk of physical harm or who are victims of identity theft. '' However, this is NOT the case for suppression from KnowX and PeopleWise which anyone can opt-out of. The policy involving those classes of consumers applies to Accurint and there is nothing on that page or on the internet which states a clear procedure for opting out of Accurint.
In fact, one year ago, I requested to opt-out of Accurint and/or place a security freeze on that product. I telephoned the number above and sent in a copy of a report mailed to me from XXXX stating that I was the victim of a security breach. Lexis-Nexis informed me falsely that my information from that database had been suppressed. In fact, Lexis-Nexis only removed me from a product called " RiskView '' by applying a security freeze to that product alone.
Lexis-Nexis has been sued over its handling of the Accurint product in XXXX XXXX XXXX et al., v. LexisNexis Risk & Information Analytics Group , Inc. et al., Case No. XXXX. In settling this class action suit in 2014 by paying a XXXX class action settlement Lexis-Nexis promised to change its policies and become " a model of the industry ''. Instead, it remains as murky as ever as to how to be removed from Accurint. There is no clear stated policy on Lexis-Nexis ' web pages anywhere as to removal. Instead, Lexis-Nexis conflates its removal policy for various distinctly different products and misleads the public as to what product consumers are being removed from. This is is being even as Lexis-Nexis has just now begun to mail out checks of {$300.00} to class members.

Information is not mine
Complaint: Lexis Nexis is combining my personal records with that of a woman in XXXX, AZ who has the same name I do. When an organization requests my file, it now contains the past address and court records of this woman in Arizona.
As a result, I now fail authentication at my own bank. Online databases and the major credit reporting bureaus have also shown this incorrect information. It appears they are not gathering data based on social security number ( a unique identifier of one person ), but on name and possibly age ( numerous matches possible ).
This is a financial and logistical nightmare, as I have to contact each one by hand and prove my identity to each company and website. My bank has said this is called " soft theft ''.
I spoke with Lexis Nexis on XX/XX/2017, and they denied providing the information to my bank ( they do n't know my bank emails/calls regularly with updates about THEIR conversations with Lexis Nexis ). Later in the conversation, the " specialist '' apparently found an AZ address, but stopped short of saying actual words to acknowledge that. The " specialist '' claimed she could n't find any court records. My bank told me the records originated in Arizona 's XXXX District Court ( record provided by Lexis Nexis ).
Lexis Nexis obviously lies as a part of daily business. This is an organization our financial and legal institutions trust to make judgements about us!
