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. (FL)

Today I received an email from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) which advised that I had a reduction in my credit score. When I went into CK it said my XXXX XXXX went down from XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX) & Equifax went from XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
I called XXXX XXXX and they said it was a 30 60 days late payment back in XX/XX/XXXX which caused it to go down. 
I reviewed the two months of scores with both credit services and see that the XXXX 30-60 days late was on the current and the prior months report. 
I also checked all of the other factors which may change a score and with regard to hard inquiries there were 5 which were the same as in the past. 
No new ones. 
No late payments since the alleged XX/XX/XXXX. 
No derogatory entries. 
And finally my overall balances were reduced.
