I'm sending this complaint to inform AGAIN the credit bureau that I was a victim of Identity Theft. It seems the credit bureau doesn't care at all that I want to dispute unauthorized items that reporting on my credit report. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file as soon as possible.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company (AL)

Freedom Mortgage sent me a projected escrow analysis in XXXX notifying me that my payments were increasing over {$700.00} a month. They claimed based on their analysis my escrow had a shortage and they projected I would owe {$10000.00} from escrow along with a current shortfall. I am XXXX. I filed homestead exemption and my actual tax is {$1200.00} a year. My home is insured at XXXX XXXX and my insurance is {$2000.00} a year. They also take {$51.00} a month for mortgage insurance. Theis is {$3800.00} not XXXX. When I started reviewing the statements there are all sorts of phony withdrawals that when I ask them to explain they stated that occurred before the loan transferred to Freedom. So the customer service rep was rude, arrogant and more or less said they are paying the bills sent to them without investigating the source and passing the charges to me. I cant do anything else. I should not have too. I have statements from my insurance and tax stating what I really should owe from my escrow. Someone is stealing and I have multiple unexplained phony withdrawals from my escrow account and can not get acceptable answers.

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT. I've proactively remembered this report from a past letter and I am including it once more. I've educated my lawyer regarding my aims and they are eager to consider that Credit Bureaus are responsible for their tenacious rebelliousness.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (OH)

I recently checked my credit report and realized the company is reporting unknown adverse information on my credit report concerning an alleged debt. I have no knowledge of any business with the company. And I also never engaged in any contracts giving the company consent to furnish anything on my credit report. I feel extremely violated and upset that my privacy would be invaded in such a way. And that my identity would be used without my consent. The company 's actions have damaged my credit rating and hindered my access to credit. The company has violated FCRA permissible purposes of consumer reports, by furnishing unknown transactions to credit reporting agencies without my written consent. The company has also violated FDCPA 1692e by communicating with me concerning the false character, amount, and legal status of the alleged debt. And stating that I owe that debt

I am filing this complaint due to XXXX, Equifax and XXXX 's failure to honor my credit report update request, despite my numerous attempts to rectify incorrect information on my credit report. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX AM XXXX, XXXX received my certified mail in XXXX, TX, XXXX, containing my dispute request. Despite this, XXXX has not made any changes or adjustments to my credit report. I have sent multiple follow-up mail attempts, but they have continuously failed to respond appropriately. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute to challenge the accuracy of specific information on my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) - 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) & 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ), Experian is required to investigate and respond promptly. Instead, I received a generic stall letter, which did not address my concerns or show any real progress in investigating the disputed items. 

I have conducted research and discovered a CFPB report indicating that XXXX uses automated methods to send stall letters, likely in an attempt to push consumers towards using their online dispute systems. However, there is no law prohibiting me from utilizing today 's technology to analyze, create, and send disputes via mail. 

Despite my numerous attempts and the clear evidence provided, XXXX has not updated my credit report or addressed the specific disputes I raised. The inquiries I requested to be removed from my credit report include : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX - XX/XX/XXXX XXXX 's refusal XXXX address my dispute and their continued use of stall tactics are unacceptable. I demand that XXXX immediately removes the aforementioned inquiries from my credit report and provides a detailed explanation for their failure to comply with the FCRA requirements. 

I have submitted my letters and stall letters sent with dates received. I am not getting any support from the credit agencies.

I am writing to address some inconsistencies that I have identified in my personal credit report. These inaccuracies are having a significant impact on my financial standing, particularly in relation to my ability to own a home. While I understand that errors can occur, I have researched the dispute process and am aware of the required investigation time-frame of thirty days. The other bureaus have already removed this account from their records, following the submission of my FTC report citing the identification of an error. I am puzzled as to how this account was verified by your bureau while other bureaus have successfully removed it. Therefore, I request the immediate deletion of this account from my file as they are inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete, or unverifiable.

These accounts were never late! I have maintained an exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX, and all payments were placed on autopay. The late payment that is being reported is the result of a systematic error on their end in processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made by the company and does not reflect my payment experience, which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe harm to my reputation, character, mode of living, and my family! I demand that the late payment reported on these accounts be removed. They are not in compliance with the following law : 15 USC 1666b. Its requirements set the standards and guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late without complying 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. These accounts 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 to rule 1002. It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and inequitable to me as a consumer! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.
