Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a late payment on my credit report by credit bureaus. The presence of this late payment inaccurately reflects my payment history, as I have consistently paid my bills on time. This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B. According to this law, consumers have the right to dispute and seek correction of billing errors, which include inaccuracies in payment reporting.

I am rejecting this response because : The Credit Bureau recent response to my complaint regarding inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Despite my numerous attempts to dispute these erroneous accounts and rectify the situation, TransUnion has failed to adequately address and resolve the issues at hand. 

Over the past several months, I have repeatedly contacted The Credit Bureau, providing detailed information and supporting documentation to demonstrate the inaccuracies present in my credit report. Unfortunately, each attempt has been met with insufficient action and a lack of proper investigation into the matters I raised. This ongoing negligence has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness and has had adverse effects on my financial well-being. 

I am now seeking the intervention and assistance of the CFPB to help resolve these persistent issues. The Credit Bureau failure to correct these inaccuracies and conduct a thorough investigation is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, they have breached my consumer rights to a fair and accurate credit report by not fulfilling their obligation to investigate disputes properly and correct any errors. 

The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate disputed information and make corrections if inaccuracies are found. 
The Credit Bureau continuous disregard for this responsibility has not only violated my rights but has also perpetuated the damages being done to me as a consumer. 

I trust that the CFPB will take appropriate action to ensure that The Credit Bureau adheres to the FCRAs requirements and conducts a comprehensive review of my disputes. I am seeking a resolution that includes the correction of all inaccuracies on my credit report and a guarantee that my consumer rights will be respected moving forward.

I am submitting this complaint against the credit bureaus due to their continuous failure to address my dispute letters concerning inaccurate information on my credit report. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue through the appropriate channels, the credit bureaus have not acknowledged or investigated my disputes, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Even after multiple submissions, the credit bureaus have failed to provide any response, confirm an investigation, or correct the disputed information. This lack of action clearly violates the FCRA, which requires credit bureaus to investigate disputes and respond within 30 days.

My accounts 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 to be removed/updated.

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. 

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 am writing to file a complaint regarding multiple instances of identity theft involving accounts fraudulently opened in my name with XXXX. These unauthorized accounts have caused significant distress and have negatively impacted my credit report. 

Recently, I reviewed my credit report and discovered several XXXX accounts that I did not recognize. These accounts were opened using an address and phone number that do not belong to me. I have never authorized these transactions and have no knowledge of these accounts. 

Upon discovering the fraudulent activity, I took the following steps to address the issue : XXXX. Contacted XXXX : I promptly contacted XXXX to inform them of the fraudulent accounts. I provided proof of my identity and detailed information about the unauthorized accounts. Despite my efforts, these accounts remain unresolved. 
XXXX. Filed a Police Report : I filed a report with my local police department to document the identity theft. The police report includes all relevant information about the fraudulent accounts and unauthorized activity. 
XXXX. Placed a Fraud Alert : I placed a fraud alert on my credit reports with XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion. This alert notifies potential creditors to take additional steps to verify my identity before opening new accounts. 
4. Credit Freeze : I froze my credit with all three major credit bureaus to prevent further unauthorized accounts from being opened in my name. 
XXXX. Filed a XXXX  Complaint : I submitted a complaint to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX against XXXX, detailing the fraudulent activity and requesting their assistance in resolving this issue. 
XXXX. Gathered Documentation : I collected and attached all relevant documents and evidence to support my claim, including my police report, identity theft affidavit, and correspondence with XXXX. 

Despite taking these steps, the fraudulent accounts are still present on my credit report, causing ongoing financial and emotional distress. I am seeking immediate assistance from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to investigate this matter thoroughly and facilitate the removal of these unauthorized accounts from my credit report. 

I request the CFPB to take the necessary actions to ensure that these fraudulent XXXX accounts are removed and that my credit is restored. Additionally, I seek guidance on any further steps I should take to protect my identity and prevent such incidents in the future. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent matter.
