Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
The 30- and 60-day delinquency reflected on our credit reports from XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX and XX/XX/2019 are erroneous. Payments made on the account over the course of 7 years were current and paid in accordance with the information provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, the account information on XXXX website reflected our regular monthly payment of {$610.00} due on XX/XX/2019. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, we received notification of a 30 day late on our credit reports from XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, we spoke with a representative at XXXX and was told although the principal balance on the account was now paid in full, the account should have continued to advance, and regular monthly payments would go toward the remaining fees on the account, but did not. Apparently, only the online account advanced ; Therefore, she submitted a request for the account to continue advancing, in addition to the removal of the negative credit reporting. 
In XXXX, the account information provided by XXXX reflected our regular monthly payment of {$610.00} due on XX/XX/2019. A few days later, we received notification of a 60 day late on our credit reports from XXXX. We immediately called and was told the information provided by the representative on XX/XX/XXXX was incorrect, as well as our online account information. XXXX has acknowledged their errors, but refuse to correct the negative impact on our credit report as a result of their errors. We have escalated this issue to management only to receive no return calls or resolutions. The negative credit reporting has caused severe financial hardships on our family. This experience has been surreal as we have never been delinquent in our 7 years with XXXX. The account was paid per the information furnished by both XXXX online account and representative.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
About XXXX of last year I attempted to get my credit report through XXXX I had trouble getting my credit report from any credit reporting agency. 

This year, around XXXX, I tried again. I received my XXXX credit report and noticed that the social security number being reported was incorrect. I then called and told them the error and they were very helpful. They fixed it in a few days and sent me a new credit report with the fix. 

I then tried to fix it with XXXX and online but was told I needed to send in a copy of an ID and my SSN card for verification. I sent my letter and copies to them XX/XX/XXXX. I called them in a week or two and was transferred to a representative who was able to make the fix. I received a new credit report with the correct SSN. 

I also tried to fix it with Equifax. I was also told by them to send in a copy of an ID and a copy of my social security card. I called them in two weeks and they told me I could not see the progress of my investigation. They told me to wait for 30 days for a resolution. I waited and received a letter in the mail. The results of the investigation said " the worker ID number is issued by the social security administration for work purposes only. The number is not issued by the social security administration as a social security number ... contact the social security administration concerning changing/updating the social security number currently reporting on your Equifax file '' ( document attached ). 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I reached out to the social security administration and they confirmed that the social security number on my card ( although for work purposes only because I received it through XXXX ) is my social security number. I think the Equifax employee must have mistaken it for an XXXX, regardless, it is my valid social security number. 

I reached out to Equifax the same day and they said the dispute was complete and I would have to submit a new one. I tried logging in online to submit a new investigation but I was unable to, rather I would have to send it though mail again. 

I have already sent in the required information for them to be able to fix the incorrect social security number that they have.
