XX/XX/year> 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 XXXXXXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXXXXXX. 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 : Payment Was Made on Time : My records indicate that the payment in question was made on time. Attached are bank statements showing the transaction, confirming that the payment was processed before the due date. 
Inconsistent Reporting : The late payment is reported inconsistently across credit reporting agencies, as detailed in the attached summary of my XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax credit reports. 
Account Activity Discrepancy : The account in question has been consistently marked as current in other months. The alleged late payment does not align with my payment history, as confirmed by XXXX XXXX 's own billing statements, which are also attache 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. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: W&A Intermediate Co., LLC (AL)

Reviewed most recent credit report and I noticed a collection that did not belong to me. After reaching out to the creditors, I was advised to contact the XXXX  to have the collection disputed and investigated as they do not have the ability to do so. After contacting the XXXX  I was meant with push-back even though I expressed the collection in question did not belong to me. 

Under code 15 USC 1692g, 15 USC 1692c & 15 USC 6802 this is a clear violation of inaccurate reporting. I feel that these accounts are adversely affecting my credit report and costing me thousands of dollars in interest every year and ability to obtain new credit to purchase a home.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MI)

I am writing to you as the holder of account number XXXX for my credit card, to report an issue negatively impacting my credit report. This issue appears to be in violation of the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1666b and other relevant sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements, including all information required by section 1637 ( b ), at least 21 days before the payment due date. This requirement ensures that consumers have sufficient time to receive, review, and make necessary payments without being unfairly penalized for late payments.

Additionally, the FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files.

I have identified that the statements for my credit card, have not been delivered in compliance with these requirements, resulting in the appearance of late payments on my credit report. This non-compliance has adversely affected my credit score. 

Furthermore, I would like to refer to the Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ), which establishes that creditors must ensure timely delivery of statements to avoid unfair penalties to consumers. 
I formally request that you investigate and correct any inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report. Below are the details of the affected payments : Date of reported late payment : XX/XX/year>, XX/XX/year>. 

I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter to rectify any errors in my credit report. I am willing to provide any additional documentation necessary for your investigation.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (AL)

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

I have attempted to work with Navient several times to lower my payment due to hardship ( STD, and the fact that I am a single mother- head of house hold ) attempting to pay back my debt, but my student loan repayments on their income based repayment plans are more than 50 % of my monthly income. I am now in debt with creditors, can no longer afford my mortgage and even groceries are a struggle.
