I am disappointed to have received a credit report that contains inaccurate information about me. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it is my right to dispute any information that I believe to be incorrect. I take this matter very seriously and I am deeply concerned that these false allegations of delinquency and derogatory information could harm my reputation and financial well-being. 

Although I am fighting back with all my strength, I need your cooperation to resolve this issue. I kindly request you to provide evidence that justifies why my accounts are considered to be in a negative state. It is my understanding that any data included in my file must be documented and validated before it can be used by creditors, as mandated by the law. However, it appears that your records are not meeting these standards. 

I feel let down that you are not doing your job properly, and I am concerned about the potential consequences that this could have on my creditworthiness. Therefore, I am giving you 30 days from now to address this matter and provide me with physical proof of your actions and my updated credit report. 

Your agency is in violation!

My consumer report contains accounts linked to identity theft, which I never authorized in writing or with a wet signature. I recently notified your organization about this issue and now formally demand the immediate blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused considerable emotional and financial strain by misrepresenting my credit history and obligations. If not properly addressed, I am ready to pursue legal action to defend my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent entries have impeded my ability to achieve crucial financial objectives, including purchasing a home and providing for my family 's needs.

My account with 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 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 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally complain about the persistent inaccuracies in my credit report maintained by Equifax and XXXX. Despite numerous attempts to correct these errors, the credit reporting agencies have failed to adequately address the issue. 

Specifically, the XXXX account is incorrectly reported on both Equifax and XXXX credit reports. The account is erroneously listed as having been foreclosed upon and then subsequently charged off approximately four years later. This information is completely inaccurate and has had a detrimental impact on my credit score. 

I have attempted to dispute this information with both Equifax and XXXX multiple times. However, their efforts to rectify the situation have been inadequate. The inaccurate information continues to appear on my credit report, causing significant financial hardship and emotional distress. 

I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and compel Equifax and XXXX to delete the XXXX account in my credit report with XXXX entirely from my credit report. This account is inaccurate, misleading, and has no place on my credit history. 

I have attached copies of my credit reports, dispute correspondence, and other relevant documentation for your review. I am available to provide any additional information or documentation as needed. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your assistance in resolving this issue.
