Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

I am writing as a final attempt to address a serious and ongoing issue regarding the unauthorized dissemination of my personal information by XXXX to credit reporting agencies, including XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. Despite previous communications, XXXX has failed to rectify the unauthorized reporting of my information, in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
As stated in my previous correspondence, XXXX did not obtain my written permission to provide my information to these credit reporting agencies. The FCRA explicitly requires written consent from individuals before consumer reporting agencies can furnish their information to third parties, except under specific permissible purposes outlined by the law ( 15 U.S. Code 1681b ). I have never given such consent to XXXX. Despite my previous demands, the unauthorized information remains on record with the credit reporting agencies. This continued violation of my consumer rights is unacceptable. I have filed multiple complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to address this issue, referenced as follows : CFPB Complaint XXXX : Credit reporting, Problem with a company 's investigation into an existing problem, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>, Closed, Company responded. 
CFPB Complaint XXXX : Credit reporting, Problem with a company 's investigation into an existing problem, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>, Closed, Company responded. 
CFPB Complaint XXXX : Credit reporting, Problem with a company 's investigation into an existing problem, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>, Closed, Company responded. 
Furthermore, I have received confirmation from the XXXX XXXX, dated XX/XX/year>, clearly stating that they do not provide information regarding case filings or dispositions to credit reporting agencies. This confirms that the XXXX information being reported by these agencies has been obtained without proper authorization or validation. Therefore, I demand that XXXX Consumer Center immediately cease and desist from providing any further information about me to credit reporting agencies without my explicit written consent. Additionally, I request that all unauthorized information already provided to these agencies be promptly deleted from their records.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH 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 my 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 XXXX 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.

SELF FINANCIAL/LEAD BA 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!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

I called, was told the bonus will appear within 2 billing cycles. But it has been more than 2 months, Capital One still didn't give me the {$300.00} sign up bonus.

I called them today explained everything, but they customer service rep transfered me to another department, but I got disconnected.

I spoke to a supervisor name XXXX badge # XXXX, but she wouldn't give me the real reason why I am not getting the bonus.
