Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NM)

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 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 months that are reported late 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 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!

I've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary XXXX notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NC)

Equifax charged me {$11.00} for a credit report. The credit score was not included. I called Equifax and they want to charge me another {$7.00} for my credit score. They were not able to direct me as to how to retrieve this online and could only take my payment over the phone and mail me the credit SCORE only. There is no clear directions or disclaimer on the their website stating the credit REPORT does NOT include the credit score. This is fraudulent, and further mitigated by the fact they were not receptive to refunding the {$11.00} and then allowing me to pay the {$7.00} to get my credit SCORE, or at least just verbally telling me my score over the phone since I already paid for the report. This was all catalyze by the fact they sent my bank the wrong credit score ( 100 pts lower than actual ).

Company: Global Lending Services LLC (AZ)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AZ XXXX, to purchase a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  : XXXX Using printouts of applicable State and Federal laws, I explained to the salesperson and the finance rep ( likely an employee of XXXX XXXX per banks ' paperwork ) that due to the process of securitization, I would submit XXXX application only, and that they only had power of attorney / permissible purpose for XXXX inquiry to XXXXXXXX XXXX  because I had already been in contact with their underwriting. The dealership proceeded to breach fiduciary duty and violate state and federal law by submitting my application a total of XXXX ( XXXX ) times to XXXX separate institutions ( XXXX XXXX and Global Lending Services ), and also provided me with an adverse action letter for in-house financing, making XXXX ( XXXX ) total deposits. Global Lending Services received XXXX ( XXXX ) of those deposits, as evidenced by their own correspondence ( attached ). 

The dealership violated their fiduciary obligations and exceeded their powers, which resulted in the deposit of XXXX securities with principal values near {$34000.00} apiece. I was not able to view any of these applications after submittal despite requesting them. 

The Federal Reserve XXXX, which helped establish our current banking system, requires that all applications be approved as long as it's been accompanied by some sort of collateral. In this instance, the " promise to pay '' contained within each application acted as a negotiable instrument and was deposited at the financial institutions in a receivables account per XXXX XXXX XXXX ( g ) ( XXXX ). Since none of these applications were returned to me, and since XXXX XXXX allows for the negotiation of such fraudulent instruments, I assume these deposits were credited. 

As is obvious, the truck was titled in my name before being pledged as collateral within the security agreements. Due to the misdeeds by the dealership and finance rep, I was unable to perfect my security interests and therefore was forced to relinquish the property. 

I returned to the dealership XX/XX/XXXX because the dealership agreed to return the applications, but all I received was the photocopies of my supporting documents. As mentioned earlier, I still have not received my original instruments nor the property.
