Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Complaint:
After numerous requests, Equifax fails to take an account off that IS NOT a good standing account off my credit file. The account is 8 years 9 months old. On top of this, the information they are reporting is incorrect. They have the first day of delinquency as XX/XX/XXXX but on their own payment history report, it states that XX/XX/XXXX it was 60 days late so how could my first date of delinquency be XX/XX/XXXX even in their own report? I contend my first date of delinquency was in XXXX. They are inaccurately reporting this account. I have requested they investigate and remove but all I get is the generic response ' Account verified as accurate '.

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

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has erroneously reported my account as 30 days late in XX/XX/XXXX when, during the official dispute process, I included a PDF copy of my transaction record showing the payment made on-time.I disputed a XX/XX/XXXX 30 day late via XXXX 's dispute process and submitted a transaction statement ( directly from the website ) that shows 2 months of debit payments from my savings account to my XXXX " loan '' account ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ). XXXX, nor XXXX considered this, or other submitted documents, that prove timely payments and suggest an error on the creditors part. I was a member of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( " XXXX '' ) since XX/XX/XXXX ; I had XXXX credit product, a XXXX card ( " loan '' ) displayed on my XXXX credit report as " account # XXXX. '' XXXX XXXX XXXX bought XXXX around XX/XX/XXXX, and just recently ( XX/XX/XXXX ), Pentagon Federal Credit Union ( " XXXX XXXX' ) bought XXXX XXXX XXXX ; However, XXXX STILL shows the XXXX account as XXXX XXXX ( XXXX never updated the name changes ). The process of merging, transferring, and issuing new account numbers were phased-in by XXXX over three months : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 'My accounts ' page included my savings account and I would pay my XXXX by simply transferring money from the savings account to the XXXX account ( " loan '' ) : I provided that documentation ( " transaction record '' ) to XXXX showing this activity for XX/XX/XXXX AND XX/XX/XXXX, through XX/XX/XXXX ; this PROVES that my payment was made and was not 30 days late. Furthermore, when I click on the " Historical Account Information '' link I see that XXXX FCU has supplied XXXX with incomplete, erroneous, and contradictory information, yet XXXX continues to report it in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. For instance : the " Date of Last Payment '' row says " XX/XX/XXXX, '' and the " Amount Past Due '' row says " XXXX '' for the months XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX. The account was closed XX/XX/XXXX, yet XXXX is reporting that it was closed in XX/XX/XXXX. The numerous errors on the reporting of this account is causing me a financial hardship and interfering with my ability to obtain other credit products.

Company: Fay Servicing, LLC
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
Fay servicing has set our house for a non-judicial foreclosure sale to occur XX/XX/XXXX. Week before last we reached out to a realtor to list our home to sell ahead of that date. XX/XX/XXXX we had a contract for cash that would satisfy the statements we've been given thus far from Fay servicing. Since that date, we and the title officer who's looking to close the sale have been in contact with Fay servicing. To get a payoff statement that they can use at closing. Our title officer has yet to receive this document in spite of numerous phone calls and emails. In addition, while our home loan has been transferred several times during the life of the loan since XXXX of XXXX, we have never received an official notice of transfer to Fay Servicing and are not certain if Fay servicing has the authority to collect payments from us or from a sale, let alone the authority to even order a foreclosure sale. We are extra concerned since this servicer has yet to give us the payoff statement as requested by the title officer who we gave permission to speak to the servicer directly. 

And also concerned that some of the fees sent in the payoff information that was forwarded to me but not a true payoff statement according to the title officer contains a lot of miscellaneous fees that are not clearly explained.
