Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IN)

The company IXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX and I have the same understanding regarding the late payment reported on the account XXXX. However, there needed to be a better understanding of the payoff date. A late payment was reported in XX/XX/year>. This loan was initially a XXXX loan but was extended to XXXX  months due to a skip-a-pay feature. This caused the payment to be reported as late a month before the balance was paid in full.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

I have repeatedly sent letters to XXXX, Experian, and XXXX requesting the removal of old, outdated, and incorrect information from my credit reports, but they have failed to respond or take any action. This negligence is highly concerning as it affects my financial standing and could harm my reputation with future employers and creditors. 

Despite providing proof of my correct personal information and identity, including copies of my Driver License, Social Security Card, and Utility Bill, the credit reporting agencies have not made the necessary corrections. This inaccurate reporting creates a misleading image of my credit history, suggesting I have lived at multiple addresses simultaneously with different phone numbers and employers. 

I demand that XXXX, Experian, and XXXX promptly remove all the incorrect information from my credit reports as it is damaging and misleading. Their failure to address these issues is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and I expect immediate action to rectify this situation to avoid any further consequences on my financial well-being.

Inquiries are not a matter of record when I never gave these companies access to My credit file!!

I am reaching out to formally dispute the inclusion of a bankruptcy on my credit report, as this entry is inaccurate. I have a letter directly from the court that clearly confirms this bankruptcy should not have been reported to your agency or reflected on my credit report. Despite this official documentation, the bankruptcy still appears on my record, which is both alarming and unjustified. Additionally, the involvement of an unauthorized third party in this matter further complicates the situation and raises concerns about the accuracy and security of my personal information. This makes the issue even more serious, as it not only reflects an error in reporting but also a breach of trust regarding the handling of my sensitive data.

Someone created a fraudulent account with XXXX in my name and withdrew a XXXX XXXX XXXX from my banking account tied to my actual XXXX account thus I reported the fraud and XXXX closed my account. I didnt have a way to keep making the auto payments or manually make them and when I would call, each person I spoke with couldnt figure out was going on and multiple customer service folks said the account was closed and i didnt owe a payment. But then they came back and said i had a late payment. I had a handful of calls AND handful of written comms with them trying to sort out the issue. Because the COMPANY kept saying on multiple occasions the account was closed and payment wasnt needed. Time lapsed resulting in a late payment that I was trying to pay/ sort out on time. They did not acknowledge their part in this and refused to accept my dispute and even though I have records otherwise and I was never late to pay entire or after the one issue which was related to fraud because of XXXX  poor systems, controls and transaction monitoring.

The company has charged this account off, so I requested a 1099 c for the cancellation of debit. I was told by the company that I didnt qualify for a 1099 c form. A charged off states that the debit has been cancelled, but it still shows a balance on my report. The company refuses to give me a 1099 c form or remove the debit or remove the charge off.

I am writing to formally report an issue I am experiencing with XXXXXXXX XXXX  regarding my car loan. During my bankruptcy proceedings, I reaffirmed my car loan and have not missed a single payment since then. In fact, I have consistently paid more than the required monthly amount. 
After my XXXX XXXX discharge, I contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX to inquire why my positive payment history was not being reported to the credit bureaus. They informed me that they would not report my payments at all. I requested a written statement confirming their policy on this matter, but they refused to provide it. 
This lack of reporting is severely impacting my ability to rebuild my credit, which is essential for my financial recovery. I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance you can provide regarding this situation. 

Thank you for your attention to my concerns.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am submitting this complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a charge-off by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The account in question ( Account XXXX. XXXX ), under my name, XXXX XXXX XXXX, has been paid in full, as verified by a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/year>. Despite this, the account has been wrongfully marked as a charge-off on my credit report. 

This charge-off was incorrectly applied, and the account 's current derogatory status is not a true reflection of my financial responsibility. This inaccurate reporting is unfairly damaging my credit standing, even though the account has been fully resolved. 

I am requesting the CFPBs assistance in having this account removed from my credit report, as it should not have been charged off in the first place and is now fully paid. Please take the necessary steps to address this inaccurate reporting and ensure that my credit report reflects the correct status. 

Thank you for your help in resolving this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX is inaccurately reporting I owe a {$1500.00} balance on this account. They also are reporting they have charged off this account. They have not provided me a 1099-C for IRS filing purposes yet continue to report month after month that I owe a {$1500.00} balance to this company. This is inaccurate. The credit bureaus are still inaccurately reporting this information monthly as well thanks to XXXX even after I keep asking them to re-investigate this inaccuracy. This negative item does not meet the FCA reporting requirements. This is a direct violation of the FCRA. I demand they remove the inaccurate information from my credit files per 15 USC 1601 and pay me {$1000.00}. per law for the problems this is causing me with potential new creditors.
