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 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 writing to formally request the correction and update of the payment history for my account with XXXX XXXX on my credit report. The current payment history displayed by TransUnion is inaccurate and inconsistent with the accurate reporting shown by XXXX. Specifically, XXXX has correctly displayed my payment history with accurate and timely information, reflecting compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). 

Additionally, the account should be listed as Paid rather than just Closed to accurately reflect the resolution of the balance, as this status better represents my responsible management of the account and positively impacts my credit profile. 

The FCRA emphasizes the importance of accurate reporting, and any deviations from the correct information can adversely affect my creditworthiness and overall consumer rights. Enclosed are detailed records showing XXXX accurate representation of my payment history, which I expect TransUnion to match to ensure compliance with federal regulations. I respectfully request the immediate adjustment of my payment history to align with XXXX reporting, as it reflects the true status of my account without discrepancies. 

Please consider this correspondence as a formal dispute under the FCRA, and I request confirmation once the necessary updates have been made.

At this point I am very frustrated with the credit bureaus. I have been in contact with them for quite some time trying to get errors on my reports fixed and still there are numerous issues that have not been addressed. This is my third complaint and I have also filed complaints with other agencies. They have violated the laws of credit reporting in many different ways. Failing to conduct a proper investigation, failure to provide results of their investigation and failure to respond within 30 days. My credit is suffering due to their lack of accountability on this issue and I am considering legal action against the credit bureaus and the furnishers, which is my right if it is not fixed in 15 days.

I am writing to dispute the following information in my file, and have noted the relevant disputes. Upon a closer review, I found several accounts and credit inquiries that had been hit by my name aside from those which were unauthorized or unrecognized .... the postings do not seem appropriate to my credit history ; but are incorrect account entries, or are accounts created due to identity theft. Due to the presence of these incorrect items, it has lowered my credit score and affected some personal finance. This has been a major worry as i have wrongful bad credit being attached to my file which in turn is not true history of how i use, spend or manage money.

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment was processed on time : I made the payment on time before the due date, but a system error caused the payment to be recorded late. Attached are my bank statements showing the payment was processed prior to the deadline.

Clerical error by the creditor : After discussing the issue with the creditor, they confirmed that the late payment was due to a clerical error. I have included correspondence from the creditor confirming this mistake.

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act.

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.
