Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

Over the years I have disputed the way the Department of Education has been reporting my information. 
Loans taken out in XX/XX/XXXX, -XX/XX/XXXXwith 36mo terms would have either become delinquent in first year or been paid in full by XX/XX/XXXXor aged off credit report in 7yrs of first delinquency.

They are reporting first delinquency in XX/XX/XXXXas a means to keep on my report an additional 7yrs. They waited till the last moment to maximize the damage to my credit. 
Passing loans also does not make it a new loan or debt. Because multiple servicers have passed much of the information can not be verified. Loans taken out in XX/XX/XXXX were sent to XXXX XXXX borrowers. XXXX XXXX has informed me they do not have record of who had loans prior or information about payment history. How is it possible to enforce this debt when chain of custody of these loans can not be verified? 
Both XXXX XXXX and Department of Education are reporting one loan in 3 ways. The department of education has split it in 2 and reporting as separate loans. 
They also claim I took out nearly 100k in student loans. I went to XXXX  college not an ivy league school to be a XXXX. What lender would give a young adult XXXX to go to XXXX  college? A lender would not give a buyer 3 times a car value for purchase. It is not reasonable to believe I received this much. Both the lenders and schools have been unable or unwilling to show evidence I actually received any disbursements. I am unsure if my signature was used to falsely obtain loans I did not recieve or if signatures were forged. 
Each time I have disputed with credit bureaus or directly no changes are made except to increase balance. Even the number of loans they are reporting is inaccurate. According to the nslds.ed.gov website there are 11 loans yet reporting 15 on XXXX. Confirmed not another servicer. I believe there are duplicates. I have also requested proof of signatures and certification of debt. The only response I have received is a copy of master promissory note with an electronic signature. Not one hand signature to prove loans received. Master promissory note does not give dates, amounts, disbursements, interest rates or any financial information whatsoever. Truth in lending act states they are required to be forthcoming with this information. 
I want this information removed from my credit report as it has adversely affected my life and even cost me a job offer.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a copy of my credit reports from XXXX, XXXX, and Experian. Those credit reports contained inaccurate information on my credit reports.

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 :

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX 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 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
