Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AK)

My account with Equifax 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 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.

Equifax 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 filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

I submitted a complaint to Transunion requesting inaccurate information on my account be removed. They responded that no action was needed because of the information provided was correct. As a consumer I have the right to fair and accurate credit reporting because all banking systems are dependent upon the accuracy. Transunion is violating my rights to such and also violating my rights to privacy by reporting false and fictitious information on my credit report.

I discovered that I was a victim of identity theft a few months ago. Apparently my card was swiped at a gas station and someone got a hold of my identity and started using it to open accounts. I didn't even realize it because I wasn't really using my credit for anything at the time. Until I went to have my mortgage refinanced and my lender told me I couldn't do it because of my score. I had XXXX scores before, so when my lender told me I was a XXXX something I knew something was off. After reviewing the details, I sent in paperwork and a police report to the creditors and the credit bureaus already but I haven't seen any changes to my reports. I even had one of the fraudulent creditors try to take me to court. So I am submitting a request into you guys to see if that helps speed up the process as I do need to refinance my home and my car lease expires soon and don't think it's fair for me to be sued for a debt that I did not even open.
