Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I am writing to formally request an investigation into potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681, that I believe have occurred regarding my credit information.

1.Right to Privacy ( 15 U.S.C. 1681a ) : I am entitled to privacy regarding my credit information. I have reason to believe that my personal information has been mishandled or improperly disclosed by the entities listed below. This breach of privacy appears to be in violation of this provision.

2.Failure to Obtain Written Instructions ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b, Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) ) : According to this section, a consumer reporting agency is prohibited from furnishing credit information without my written instructions. It has come to my attention that the following entities have reported information about my accounts without obtaining the necessary written authorization from me, thereby violating this provision of the FCRA : Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account XXXX : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number XXXX XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Account Name : TAB/SUNBIT Account Number : XXXX I am deeply concerned about these potential violations and their impact on my financial standing and reputation.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I am disputing the inaccurate reporting of late payments on my credit report for the following accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ( account XXXX reported on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ) and two XXXX XXXXXXXX accounts ( account # XXXX and XXXX, both reported on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ). These accounts are incorrectly marked as late, even though my payments were made on time, in compliance with the account terms. 

Under 15 USC 1666b and the FCRA, it is the creditor 's responsibility to ensure the accuracy of the information they report. I am requesting that you provide evidence to support these late payments, including account statements and any documentation showing I authorized this information to be reported. If such proof can not be provided, I expect the payment status to be promptly corrected to " on time '' to reflect my actual payment history.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (OH)

I returned XXXX products that I purchased online and was to receive a full credit card refund, XXXX for {$1900.00} in XXXX and the second for {$2000.00} in XX/XX/2023. 

The merchant required I mailed them back in XXXX different boxes which I did, with USPS tracking. When I did not receive timely credit refund I contacted both to figure out why it had not been credited, as the merchant said it would be. I made a min payments ( over {$100.00} ) to keep my account in good standing, as I was told it would take few to several months to get sorted out. 

I would check out what was happening about once I month and would request what has happening and to be contacted in writing. 

Now a year later only 2 of the boxes have been credited. The last box not credited is approximately {$400.00}. I have not received anything other than your balance is due and interest and late fees are being adding. As of today the current balance is {$610.00} and late fees and interest being charged. Along with late payments being reported on my credit report. 

I am clueless what to do at this point. Can you please figure this out? The reason you use and pay fees to your credit card is to protect you from this. They have the proof it was returned and received by the merchant. So why did I only get XXXX of the XXXX refunds? All three should be refunded and {$100.00}, I paid be refunded to me. In addition, all late payment reports be removed from my credit report. I never received any thing in writing from this about this issue, so I can not provide you with anything other than billing statements.

The amount the bank is responsible for is {$3000.00}.

They claimed that they did their investigation and that they concluded it was me who did this to myself. That is what hackers do they try to make it look like you or someone else did it. Why would I do that to myself? Makes no sense. The name on the cash app transactions was XXXX XXXX. An alias Im sure.

I never could get an honest name out of them as to who I was discussing this with it was supposed to be some sort of manager without a last name
