I need to stress that this complaint isn't a mistake. My credit report has inaccuracies that aren't assured to be the maximum possible accuracy. These errors are really weighing on me and is continuing to affect me negatively in ways you can not begin to imagine, these are trying times and it would be a great help to me, a blessing I must say, if these inaccuracies get corrected and/or removed.

On XX/XX/year> ( XX/XX/year> ) XXXX XXXX XXXX  ran a XXXX inquiry for a home loan without my authorization. I was told by XXXX XXXX several times in writing that her company WILL NOT run a Hard inquiry until we had finalized the loan, her company runs soft credit checks to gather information. 

I filled out a VA home loan request in which XXXX XXXX XXXX ran a hard inquiry for an FHA loan, then her company ran my credit again making that XXXX hard credit pulls without ANY authorization! I was told by XXXX XXXX she would have those hard inquiries removed and she never did. 

I requested a copy of the report her company pulled, and she refused to send me that information as well as refusing to give me the rates for the FHA loan her company put together when she ran my credit for the first time without authorization. 

I had a co-worker recommend XXXX XXXX XXXX  to me because he used this company for his XXXX XXXXXXXX loan. I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX  they had ran my credit. I was very upset, I told them I was VERY upset and told them I was busy, I would call them back when I got off the phone with the VA. 

During that time XXXX XXXX discussed MY Home Loan information, my details, my credit worthiness and personal information with my co-worker again without my authorization. Then this company told me to go with another mortgage company and refused to assist me anymore after they had violated my trust, my private personal information and hurt my credit. 

I am requesting that the Hard inquires on Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX be removed from my credit report for the following reasons : XXXX. This hard inquiry was Unauthorized. 
XXXX. This company gave out personal information to a third party without authorization. 
XXXX. This company refused to give me the results of the inquiry. 
XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX  refused to remove hard inquires from All three ( XXXX ) credit bureaus when requested. 

A. 1 inquiry on XXXX XX/XX/year>XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXnquiry on Equifax XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX inquiry on Equifax XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX inquiries on XXXX XX/XX/year>, XX/XX/year> I have requested the XXXX and mortgage information 7 times with XXXX XXXX, and she has refused or given an excuse every time. She has not given me the numbers they ran that day. 

To qualify for a VA XXXX XXXX I needed a credit score of XXXX, I had the credit score, even if I didn't qualify for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX  should have contacted me so I could have authorized a hard pull on my credit to see if I wanted to use a FHA XXXX and give up all the benefit 's XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has to offer and to give up what I fought hard to earn. I didn't suffer in XXXX to have my XXXX loan thrown aside because your employee made a mistake, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX is a lot better than a FHA XXXX. It just doesn't make sense what your company tried to do.

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

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I am stressed and displeased that I see so many fraudulent accounts on my credit report. This is really damaging my credit worthiness. I am trying to buy a home for me and my family and this is not fair. I have tried several times to get these accounts removed. Let alone, my information was in an XXXX & Equifax breach some months ago so I thought you all would protect my consumer report. I do not feel that my information is being protected. This is a defamation to my character, and this is a federal law violation. According to, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) my consumer report fairness and privacy has been violated. I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also, it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher people 's information to 3rd party companies, so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can get sued for these damages. This is negatively affecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I have lost count of the number of letters I have sent to your bureau regarding my status as a victim of identity theft, as my concerns have yet to be fully resolved. Once again, I am disputing the fraudulent information that is adversely affecting my credit file. Despite my submission of the required FTC complaint, your bureau continues to report these fraudulent account on my credit report. I want to emphasize that I have already contacted the bank associated with this account, submitted the necessary documents, and had the account promptly deleted from their records. Moreover, other credit bureaus have already removed this account from their records following the submission of the FTC complaint. Therefore, I am curious about the verification process your bureau employed to continue reporting these fraudulent account.
