Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH capital 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 XXXX, XXXX, AND XXXX 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 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

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I am writing to formally dispute several unauthorized hard inquiries listed on my credit report. As a consumer, I am protected under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and 15 U.S.C. 1602 ( p ), which defines and regulates the permissible purposes for obtaining a consumer report.

After carefully reviewing my credit report, I have identified the following hard inquiries that I do not recognize and did not authorize : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. 
As you may know I have been a victim of your 2017 security breach which has been reported to Fraud agency Under the FCRA, hard inquiries should only be made with my explicit consent or for legitimate business reasons such as when applying for credit. Since I did not authorize these inquiries, they constitute a violation of my consumer rights as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1602 ( p ).

This account was opened from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I should have active payment history from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, but TransUnion reported from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. It also reported another conflicting date of last payment of XX/XX/XXXX. This is inaccurate payment history reporting. This inaccurate information falsely manipulates my credit worthiness and is hurting my ability to obtain credit. TransUnion failed to investigate this account properly after I repeatedly asked to have the account updated. Your neglect has once again violated my consumer rights.
