Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IL)

I have disputed an account that was reported by XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX then sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX  and now reflects as a collection on my credit report. With lack of real resolution, a court hearing is now in place against the two companies. It is brought to attention that the address provided by each credit bureau for XXXX XXXX XXXX is void and nonexistent. Sheriffs are not able to serve XXXX XXXX XXXX to the address each bureau provided for this company. 

I now question the validity that each bureau has for accurate information regarding my account and the companies reporting on it.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

The credit bureau never did a proper investigation according to the FCRA. 

The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information.

They did not do this.

Also they have violated my rights even more.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report. 

The Credit bureaus stated my account was properly investigated but how is that possible if the open date is inaccurate, the date last active is inaccurate, and date last reported is not accurate. This is grounds for removal, They also violated the law because according to 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions I did not give anybody written instructions XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon, and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties, and I did not participate in any of it. More so they didn't follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which make these unfair practices. According to the FDCPA Im entitled to XXXX dollars per violation and clearly, they violated my rights.

On XX/XX/year>, I reviewed my credit report and found inaccuracies with accounts from XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. I submitted a dispute to Equifax requesting an investigation. Equifax later made updates to both accounts, which clearly indicates that the original information was inaccurate. Despite this, they did not provide a detailed explanation of how these accounts were verified, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ). Without this information, I can not be certain that the updated information is accurate. Additionally, this failure to provide details is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates the maximum possible accuracy of information. These inaccuracies have negatively affected my credit and financial standing.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

My account with Experian 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.

Experian 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
