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

I requested a copy of my credit reports and saw an incorrect payment history on an XXXX auto loan. I tried to contact XXXX regarding this incorrect payment history, but I found that XXXX is no longer in business. I contacted the credit bureaus and I ask them to investigate and correct the payment history, but XXXX and Equifax came back to me saying the information had been verified, I then requested how the information was verified, and my request was ignored, by both bureaus. It is the law that they provide detailed method of verification, but my request was ignored. 
XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  was purchased by XXXXXXXX XXXX and XXXX was verifying the credit information under the XXXX account on my credit bureau. My account was opened and paid off under XXXX and not XXXX and it is not accurate information on my credit report to have XXXX reporting information on the behalf of a bank that no longer exist. The bank that is reporting the information is not the bank where the account originated or who was paid the payments. I do not believe it is correct to have one bank verifying information and reporting for a defunct bank under another name. I'm legally intitled to have a 100 % accurate credit report and since the original creditor can not verify the information The bureaus must correct my payment history since they can't verify with the original creditor.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

With this fair resolution, I need tobe rest assured that in my credit report will accurately reflect my timely payment history as agreed upon. For matters related to the accuracy of credit reporting, including the updating of late payments due to inaccuracies, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is the relevant law. The FCRA governs the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer credit information, providing consumers with rights to dispute and correct inaccurate information in their credit reports. Therefore, if there are inaccuracies in the reporting of late payments, XXXX would typically rely on provisions within the FCRA to dispute and correct those inaccuracies with the credit reporting agencies and furnishers of the information.

My repeated efforts to address the fraudulent inquiries on my consumer report have been unsuccessful. These inquiries are entirely unrelated to me, and I am not responsible for them in any way. Their presence has caused considerable mental anguish and financial hardship. As an identity theft victim, I will be compelled to pursue legal action if this issue is not appropriately resolved. These inaccurate and fraudulent entries have prevented me from purchasing my desired home and adequately providing for my family, significantly impacting my financial stability. I have enclosed a copy of my previous correspondence to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) detailing this issue and requesting resolution for your reference.
