Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

After two-three months of observing my consumer reports by the named Credit Reporting Agency ( ies ) it has come to my attention that my consumer rights are in violation by the company reporting and the Company furnishing an account. Reason, FL DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE, the Company furnishing the information to the Reporting Agencies by non disclosed consent, FL DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE with the Credit Reporting Agency continues to furnish an account with adverse action making a significant harm to my credit profile. According to Fair Credit Reporting Act, fair and accurate reports should ONLY be forward to Agencies via the consumer by permissible written consent. 

The reporting of account XXXX ; XXXX ; XXXX : has caused severe damage to my credit character, my credit reputation and my general mode of living and my ability to obtain credit for personal purposes. Ultimately the reporting of the account and violation ( XXXX ) has damaged my livelihood and my ability to grow in commerce using credit. To add, I never gave FL DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE written permissible consent to furnish private information to a public reporting agency. To conclude, can the reporting agency ( ies ) or FL DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE provide any documentation with my signature to prove otherwise? Can the credit reporting agency ( ies ) provide the initial contract with my wet ink signature that I, XXXX XXXX XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX, Estate gave, delivered and or made to the FL DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE to participate in Title IV-D granted funds? Can the Credit Reporting Agency ( ies ) prove what is Child Support, is Child Support a loan? Or, a Credit Transaction?

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

My account with EQUIFAX 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 ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) 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 XXXX XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( 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

Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to pay a bill
Company: Neon Newco Corporation (MD)

the card was in a negative balance of around {$500.00}. I was not working and was in and out of the hospital so I was not getting a full paycheck. I started to send allotments of {$100.00} and {$150.00} to repay the negative balance. On XX/XX/23, I received a full paycheck of around {$3800.00}, plus an allotment of {$150.00}. The negative was paid in full at this point and when I tried to pay a bill, I was declined because the company froze my funds. When I spoke with the customer service rep, she said that the recovery team would have to unblock the funds but I was not able to speak with anyone on that team. Normally, a bank would allow you to speak with someone on the fraud team and they are able to fix it that same day. Customer rep said that they would have to send an email to the recovery team and I would have to wait XXXX business days to get a response. Meantime, my money would be sitting there and I would not be able to pay bills. They could not accurately tell me what I owed. This is a holiday weekend and when the customer rep said she tried to speak with a XXXX, they told her it was nothing they could do. Most legitimate banks can fix those problems right away and tell you what the issue is and unblock your card the same day. This company could not and would not. I take XXXX XXXX  and I am a XXXX. I need my paycheck not only for bills but for my medication. They are keeping over {$3000.00} of my money to pay for a small negative balance which has been paid off according to the customer rep. So why are they keeping my money through a holiday weekend. This is unacceptable and should have been fixed the same day.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (UT)

I am writing in response to your recent communication dated XX/XX/year>, in which my request to block information in my credit report due to identity theft was denied. I submitted a valid Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report and all the required supporting documentation, as mandated under Section 605B of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. According to the FCRA, upon receiving a proper identity theft report, the credit reporting agency must block the reporting of information resulting from identity theft within four business days. Your letter claims that my request was denied because the information was either ( 1 ) submitted in error, ( 2 ) based on a material misrepresentation, or ( 3 ) I knowingly obtained goods or services as a result of the transaction. These claims are inaccurate, and I dispute your refusal to block the information as required by law. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ( a ), a consumer reporting agency is required to block any information that the consumer identifies as resulting from identity theft when : The consumer provides appropriate proof of identity, The consumer submits a valid identity theft report ( which includes the FTC affidavit XXXX, The consumer clearly identifies the fraudulent information, and The consumer requests the block in writing. I have fully complied with these requirements by submitting an identity theft report, supporting documentation, and the necessary written request to block the fraudulent items. I also provided all relevant information identifying the disputed items. I received from XXXX and Equifax an that states that the block I requested was invalid due to some information as payments made on that account although the I was a victim of the id theft and the suspect actively paid off my account and opened more accounts with my information and I had not noticed what was going on for over 4 years until my score dropped. I am not really tech savvy and dont pay attention to such things and never thought I could be a victim of identity theft and under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), that the credit reporting agency XXXX & XXXX block the information appearing on my credit report, which is the result of identity theft. The fraudulent information includes the Affirm account with an amount of {$680.00}, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account with an amount of {$4300.00}, and the XXXX XXXX  account with an amount of {$6800.00}. Additionally, a second XXXX XXXX  account under account number XXXX with an amount of {$10000.00} is also fraudulent.
