Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MA)

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the inaccurate reporting on my credit report and the failure of the company to respond to my dispute attempts. 

Inaccurate Reporting : XXXX XXXX XXXX has reported my account as being 60 days late in XXXX XXXX 90 days late in XX/XX/year>, and 90 days late again in XX/XX/year>. This information is entirely false. I have consistently made all payments on time, and there is no legitimate basis for this late payment history to be on my report. 

Account Balance : Additionally, the account is showing a balance of {$6.00}, which is also incorrect. The account should reflect a {$0.00} balance, and I do not owe any outstanding amount to XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Failure to Respond : I have made multiple attempts to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX by sending dispute letters to the address listed on my credit report, only for the letters to be returned as undeliverable or ignored without any response. The companys failure to address my dispute is a clear violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (WA)

On Saturday XX/XX/XXXX I became aware of an issue with my bank when several XXXX  payments were declined. I called Bank of America XXXX-department and was informed that my account had been closed, and with it all associated cards. I was told a letter informing me about it had been sent out on XX/XX/XXXX. To date ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I have not received this letter. 
That weekend I called the Fraud department, was sent to the Risk / Closure departments, then was routed to a specialist who told me that the bank was " exercising their right to end our relationship without further notice ''. No further information or explanation. 
There has been no suspicious activity, no fraud or delinquencies on my account since I became a client in XXXX- for 17 years. My credit score is excellent and my credit report history exemplary. I am completely mystified and shocked by the very sudden and harsh treatment by my bank, severing our existing business relationship from one day to the next. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I went into my local BofA branch and spoke to a bank representative, they too could not find any information as to why my accounts had been closed. Their attempts to contact the XXXX department were met with further caginess and run-around, then they were told " it was a business decision '' and that " my credit had been revoked ''. For no apparent reason. 
That day I paid off my remaining XXXX  balances with the bank teller and have since been locked out of my online banking and access to my accounts. 
I called the Fraud and Risk / Closure departments yesterday on XX/XX/XXXX and was unable to file a dispute or appeal. I was told that the account closure was finite. 
This treatment is harsh and very sudden. I have been a loyal customer of Bank of America for over 17 years and have been suddenly and with no apparent reason or explanation been unceremoniously kicked to the curb.

My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX 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 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 XXXX XXXX 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''
