Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

On XX/XX/year>, I discovered I was a victim of identity theft after noticing unauthorized accounts and transactions on my credit report. I promptly filed a police report and an FTC Identity Theft Report. I sent certified mail to Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX, including my ID, police report, FTC report, proof of address, and a dispute letter outlining the fraudulent activity. Despite these actions, I havent received any response from the credit bureaus, and the inaccurate information remains on my credit file. This situation has caused me significant distress as it affects my financial well-being, and I urgently need the fraudulent entries removed and my credit report corrected.

XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Equifax in regards to erroneous information on my report as I was trying to buy a home. I provided information for accounts that had been paid, accounts put in my name that were not mine that I paid anyway. XX/XX/XXXX, I provided Equifax information for accounts they are showing again me that were paid by a Workers Comp Claim. To this date XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax refuses to update the information. Currently they are even showing I have 4 accounts with negative information but they are only reporting 3 accounts with negative information which is still erroneous information being reported. I have become homeless due to these mistakes and at this time will seek Attorney. I have all documents which have been given to Equifax over and over for years now! The also refused to update my credit score with XXXX XXXX accounts reported to them per my creditors.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX 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 reported in those account to be removed.

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. 


XXXX XXXX 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!

These new reporting requirements are retroactive to XX/XX/year> and do not apply to charged-off accounts.
