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

My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 to be updated.

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 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

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

CREDITOR DISPUTE CREDIT INFORMATION XXXX XXXX CARD I, XXXX XXXX, believes that the account I had with the determined creditor was posted as either a charge off, or has excessive late payments that were deliberately placed after I got involved with XXXX XXXX   XXXX. What happened is that XXXX XXXX XXXX let these accounts go into a charge off status before they came up with a settlement arrangement. Therefore, the charge off status on these accounts were caused from a pre-arranged relationship with XXXX XXXX XXXX and the original creditor and/or debt buyer. This is a collusion business practice where the consumer can not successfully negotiate herself out of debt without a long-term derogatory statement on her credit report. Accordingly, I believe that each creditor must fulfill a fair solution to the creditor arrangement now posted on Equifax, XXXX  and XXXX XXXX respectively.

1 ) The original creditor must delete the prior-payment history completely.

2 ) A date certain must be stated as to when the credit tradeline can be removed.

3 ) The charge-off status must be deleted permanently.

All creditors maintain a subscriber agreement with the credit reporting agencies. These creditors must comply with all legal guidelines of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act pertaining to credit reporting on all consumers. However, the charge off status was forced by the debt negotiations company, and the late payment excessiveness was by design, not by any action from me personally. Accordingly, I believe the following actions by the original creditor on all credit updates will be fair under the circumstances : 4 ) The original creditor must delete the prior-payment history completely.

5 ) A date certain must be stated as to when the credit tradeline can be removed.

6 ) The charge-off status must be deleted permanently.

I recently requested the removal of inaccurate and derogatory information from my credit report, specifically regarding a late payment notation. I previously submitted a formal dispute, asking that Chase provide clarity on the investigative process used to determine the accuracy of this reported late payment. I never received any notice that this information would be reported, nor any information about the investigative procedure, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
The reported information is not entirely accurate and has significant ramifications on my financial stability and ability to support my family, including impeding my efforts to secure a home. Per the FCRA, I am entitled to both accuracy in reporting and transparency regarding the methods employed in verifying such information. The failure to comply with these standards leaves me no choice but to seek appropriate legal remedies should this issue remain unresolved. 
I urge Chase to reevaluate this matter promptly and to rectify the incorrect reporting without delay. Please inform me of any steps being taken to amend this entry or to facilitate an accurate resolution.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

On XX/XX/year> I realized that it was a scam and initiated disputes with Paypal. Paypal, within the same day, closed those disputes and sided with the scammer.

I have initiated various dispute with authorities ( e.g., FBI and US Embassy in XXXX ), and Paypal has not heeded any of this information. 

It takes approximately a month for funds to clear, so Paypal could have canceled/reversed the four transactions that were fraudulent. They, however, have done nothing and aided the scammer in furtherance of her scam.
