Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (UT)

In XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered multiple inaccurate collection accounts on my credit report. These entries were made without my knowledge or consent, and they violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2. Despite having already filed a dispute and providing all the necessary documentation, the credit reporting agencies and the companies responsible have failed to remove these inaccurate collection accounts. 

This is the second formal complaint I am filing with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) because the previous complaint was ignored, and the inaccurate collection accounts continue to appear on my credit report. These accounts are causing significant damage to my credit score, and the continued reporting of this erroneous information is both misleading and a violation of my rights under the FCRA.

Balance : {$0.00} c. Account Status : Closed d. Date Reported : XX/XX/XXXX The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) mandates that credit reporting agencies and furnishers of information must ensure the accuracy of the data they report. Specifically : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ), the companies reporting these collections must have a permissible purpose for accessing or reporting this information, which they have failed to demonstrate. 
Under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ), the furnishers of information have a legal obligation to correct and update inaccurate or incomplete information once a dispute has been filed. Despite receiving my dispute, these furnishers have neglected to update or remove the inaccurate information. 

Furthermore, the 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) provision requires credit reporting agencies to adopt reasonable procedures to assure the maximum possible accuracy of the information in consumer reports. By continuing to report these erroneous collection accounts, the credit reporting agencies are in direct violation of this provision, and I am seeking corrective action under the law. 

The Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) has issued clear guidelines about the obligations of credit reporting agencies and furnishers under the FCRA. My complaint is further supported by FTC Report XXXX. XXXX, which underscores the need for compliance with these legal obligations.

I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Im the one I would like the XXXX XXXX XXXX removed from my derogatory remarks. But the primary reason I am contacting Transunion today is to complain about them deliberately and purposely keeping my credit score down imo to a XXXX despite the fact that I have an excellent payment is 100 % And I have other excellent items on the status of my credit report as well, including an excellent amount of counts and excellent amount of hard inquiries, etc., etc. I could care less about algorithms. With my excellent items on my credit report, especially my XXXX percent payment history my score should be way higher than a XXXX. That score is unfair and light of how good the status of my accounts and payment history on my credit report all with Transunion. I will continue to keep writing these complaints until they become further aware of my excellent percent XXXX percent payment history and other excellent items in good standing and increase my credit. I appreciate my statement being read, and I appreciate any assistance that I may obtain from Transunion. Unfortunately, I will continue to write complaints both on the XXXX  and of CFPB websites. Even if I have to write hundreds of complaints, I will. Thanks for your help. I would also like these complaints that I will be sending over the next couple months to all be published on the XXXX website that could be read by the public.

My account with EQUIFAX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. 


EQUIFAX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


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!
