Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

I am writing to file a complaint regarding a late credit card payment that is inaccurately showing on my Experian credit report. I believe this violation is in direct conflict with the regulations outlined in the 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which governs fair credit billing practices. It states A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

I hold a credit card with XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX. According to the information on my Experian credit report, there is a late payment listed for the billing cycle ending XXXXXXXX XXXX 2021. 

I would like to bring to your attention the following points : Compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b : Section 1666b of the United States Code governs fair credit billing practices. It ensures that consumers are treated fairly and have the right to dispute incorrect charges or billing errors. It is evident that the reporting of this late payment is erroneous and does not comply with the spirit of this law. 

Negative Impact on Credit Score : The inclusion of this late payment on my credit report has had a significant adverse impact on my credit score, affecting my ability to secure favorable credit terms and causing undue financial harm. This negative reporting is unwarranted and violates my rights as a consumer.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

Im submitting this complaint against XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX  due to their total disregard for my consumer rights under the FCRA/FCBA/FDCPA. For several months now, I've been disputing inaccurate and unverifiable information showing up on my credit report by this company. I have requested intimate information about the alleged accounts, including a copy of an agreement with my signature on it, but I have yet to receive anything. These companies continue to electronically verify these " ghost '' accounts without providing any legally binding evidence, such as a signed contract and complete accounting of the record, as required by law. They're clearly lying and thus the reason Im asking for proof. However, these companies refuse to provide it, which is not right and is not compliant with the FCRA/FDCPA. Im absolutely fed up. My life has been in complete ruin as a result of this. It's causing enormous mental and financial distress, preventing me from getting approved from credit that I am rightfully entitled to, and not to mention the ample amount of time that I must take out to try and resolve this matter myself. This has brought a great deal of harm to my family as a whole as well. Ive just had enough! Please help! I hope to hear from you soon.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. to this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like i'm being really taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report it has been over 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or i will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the equifax data breach and may have gotten into the wrong hands.

My request for the correction and removable of the erroneous information about my accounts has been diligently neglected by Experian. Despite sending them the last letter, dated XX/XX/2022, for the said request, I have not received any response up to this date. Besides, the inaccurate information about my accounts is still on my reports. Therefore, Experian has not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i within the time permitted by law and continued reporting as unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non- compliance with federal statutes.
