Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TN)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I purchased solar panels for my newly built home. When going threw the sales pitch, the person selling me the panels told me that there was no payments for 18 months. That was the only reason I went with them because it was a newly built home. There are things that need to be done before I was to worried about Solar Panels, but without having to pay a payment for 18 months that was doable. Shortly after they were installed, I started receiving things saying that my account is past due my payment was received and so on and so forth. Oh I spoke with somebody and told them that I agreed to make payments after 18 months and if not, then they need to come and get the panels because I didnt want them I couldnt afford to make payments until 18 months later. They tried to tell me they were the finance company and not the actual solar people or whatever but I only ever dealt with one person and I had no clue that they were represented by another company. Anyways, I sent documentation showing where I havent stated in text messages time and time again that no payments for 18 months. Hi shut sent them a copy of the flyer that they gave me when I signed up and said that there was no payments for 18 months, and they still reported me to the credit bureau and knocked down my credit score.

My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with 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 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 months that are reported late 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 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!

I have received your computer-generated notice informing me that you did not do any action or investigation for the disputes I sent out last time because you think I may have used a third-party credit repair company.
