Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified items listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct. In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these items? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. Since you claim youve verified the items listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the companies directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ITEMS? I believe you have not verified these items based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments 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 have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

In XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX, I made a payment of {$60.00} to the company, which cleared my bank on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX Later I made another payment of {$150.00} and {$350.00}. My bank shows these payments clearing on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, respectively. 

My XXXX, XXXX statement from the company shows a balance due of $ XXXX. 

XXXX, XXXX statement shows $ XXXX also. At this point I called the company. I asked for this money to be returned to me as it was clearly an overpayment on my part. I have not been to the store or used this card since the XXXX  of XXXX. It appears the company reversed my payments to charges while they " researched this matter ''. At this time I sent them copies of my bank statements showing the payments being cleared. Suddenly my XXXX statement shows a total balance due of XXXX. A payment due of {$29.00}. Since I was aware of the overpayment I didn't make any payment. The XXXX statement showed a new balance due of {$300.00}, a past due amount of {$29.00} and a total pmt due of {$62.00}. Again I didn't make any payments because of overpayment. 

My XXXX statement shows a balance of $ XXXX. It clearly states on the statement in red lettering " Please do not pay, as of this statement date your account has a credit balance '' Again, I called and asked for the credit to be returned to me. I still have not used the card! I have not received a check for my credit balance. Nor has the money been returned to my checking account. 

My XXXX statement shows a balance due of {$280.00}. I have not used this card for about a year at this point. XXXX statement shows a balance due of {$310.00}.

EQUIFAX Has now returned to my credit report, an account that is in charged-off status which is the result of credit card fraud. Fraudulent charges began in XXXX, and led to the charge-off in XXXX. 
I had NO participation these charges were made against my credit card account WITHOUT my knowledge, authorization, or participation of ANY kind. They are the result of IDENTITY THEFT. I have already once submitted a CFPB complaint, along with my FTC identity theft report, and valid identification, however I have been refused my rights as afforded to me by the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT. This is now my 2nd attempt, after more then a month has passed since the first, with no action taken by the companies involved ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, Equifax ). I am supplying all the documentation required in FCRA 605 ( b ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) for the credit reporting agencies to BLOCK all information within 4 business days. ( SEE XXXXsystem/files/consumer_ftc_gov/pdf/fcra-605b.pdf ) I DEMAND that this FRAUDULENT use of my credit cards, a result of IDENTITY THEFT and resulting in the negative information on my credit reports, be no longer incorrectly reported on my credit reports. I also DEMAND that ALL negative information pertaining to this credit card account be BLOCKED within 4 business days and REMOVED from my credit report, as I had no involvement in these unauthorized charges and therefore am not liable for them. I have attached a POLICE REPORT with XXXX XXXX XXXX, in regards to the fraudulent use of said credit card. The Account number for the XXXX XXXX credit card I am referring to is : ( ACCOUNT NUMBER XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This will be my last attempt before I pursue litigation if my rights are continuously violated.

Equifax Information Services LLC XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I am writing to formally dispute the account information being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX on my credit report. I previously initiated a dispute regarding this collection account, but Equifax has failed to properly address the issue, and the account is still being inaccurately verified. 
This collection is **not mine**, and I am demanding that you re-investigate this account immediately. I request that Equifax comply with your obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681i which mandates that credit reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation when consumers dispute the accuracy of information on their reports. 
Additionally, under **15 U.S.C. 1681s-2**, data furnishers like XXXX XXXX XXXX are required to provide accurate information. If Equifax is relying on incomplete or inaccurate verification from XXXX XXXX XXXX this constitutes a violation of the FCRA, and Equifax must take corrective action to remove this erroneous collection account from my credit report. 
Please also note that under **15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) **, Equifax is required to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information reported. Given the lack of proper verification, it is clear that this responsibility has not been fulfilled in my case. 
I demand that this matter be resolved within the thirty-day period as prescribed by law, and that Equifax provide me with written confirmation of the removal of this inaccurate collection from my credit report. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your immediate response. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX social Security number XXXX

I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate late payments associated with my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card account XXXX for the dates of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX which appear inaccurately on my consumer report. This information incorrect and is negatively impacting my credit report and, consequently, my means of living.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1666b, I demand the immediate removal of these inaccuracies. 
I would like to point out that I have not received any of the required documents as cited in 15 U.S.C. 1637b. The absence of this information further supports my claim that the reported late payments are erroneous. 
If these inaccuracies are not corrected and removed from my credit report in a timely manner, I will be compelled to pursue all damages allowable for willful non-compliance under 15 U.S.C. 1681n. This request is made under the principle that any negative reporting that does not accurately reflect my payment history should be removed. Additionally, I would like to draw your attention to the provisions under 15 U.S.C. 6802, which mandates the proper handling and safeguarding of consumer information. It is imperative that your institution adheres to these regulations to maintain the integrity of my credit report. 
Please investigate this matter promptly and provide me with written confirmation of your findings and any actions taken. 
Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue.
