All of these accounts are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting act section 603 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ), which states [ " Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; '' ]. Transactions which can be known as late payments, a late payment is a type of transaction where on is late, these are clearly excluded from being reported however EQUIFAX, who as a Credit Reporting Agency should have reasonable knowledge of the laws governing them, has been reporting them on all of these accounts.
