Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my credit report regarding a charge-off. The account in question is listed as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Charge-Off : XX/XX/year> It has come to my attention that the charge-off is being reported month after month on my payment history, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should only be reported once, corresponding to the date it was charged off. 
The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score.

Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the
first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper.

I request that you promptly investigate this account and correct the inaccurate information by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide me with a confirmation of these corrections.

" I am addressing the issue with regarding the noncompliance. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance. This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs. This underscores the importance of addressing and rectifying this matter promptly and responsibly.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : The payment was made on time. I paid the amount due well before the due date. I have attached bank statements and a payment confirmation that show the payment was processed successfully and on time. 
Furthermore, the account was closed by me in XX/XX/XXXX, and there was no balance owed at the time of closing. The late payment report appears to have been a clerical error in the final account closure process. 
No notifications or warnings were provided to me about a potential late payment, and I received no communication regarding any delinquency. This suggests that the report of a late payment is incorrect and should be removed. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 
As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint.

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.
