Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MS)

My credit report has certain accounts that I'm not familiar with. Since I never gave them permission, they could be the product of identity theft. Having previously discussed this with you, I'm writing to request that these accounts be promptly deleted from my report in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that credit bureaus rectify erroneous information on consumer credit reports. These accounts have caused me stress because they are on my report. It's been difficult to deal with the impact because they don't represent my financial responsibility or credit history. I'm ready to take legal action to protect my rights and find a solution under the FCRA if we can't work this out. The inaccurate items that appear on my credit report have been a big obstacle for me. They're getting in the way of my important financial goals, like buying a house and taking care of my family. I hope we can resolve this issue quickly.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

These entries appear to have been added to my credit report in error or as a result of fraudulent activity.The inclusion of these erroneous items has unfairly impacted my credit score and overall financial standing. This matter is causing significant concern, as my credit history is being unjustly damaged by information that is neither accurate nor reflective of my true financial activities.

Since per XXXX  that I'm not who I say I am and that my social security number is invalid, they need to remove both hard inquiries from my equifax report.

My account with this company is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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.

This company 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.

My current credit report has a listing and or listings in which has not been validated by your company per request per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file.

The Bankruptcy Court has mailed me letters which states that they DO NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate and/or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies, and/or other third-party providers who collects information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the Recorder of Deeds nor the U. S. District Court system due to the Fair Credit Reporting Agency PRIVACY LAW. 

My request to the U. S. District Courts confirmed Equifax has never validated or verified these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MISUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unawares to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrectly. Considering the information indicating a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation, I need all tax lien and bankruptcy information currently showing under my social security number, date of birth, and/or address to be PERMANENTLY DELETED from my credit report immediately. 

The Equifax needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these Public Record Accounts bearing either a court order to place this information in my credit report along with my authorization of release bearing my signature. To be in full compliance with the FCRA laws and guidelines, all the information listed under Public Records needs to be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my social security number, date of birth, and/or address. Be further advised that I am closely monitoring my credit file. Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete this investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ).

Per the Federal Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), you are required by federal law to verify through physical verification of the original signed consumer contract and/or judgment ( s ) all accounts and public information that you post on anyones credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, email in fraudulent and erroneous account information. As such, if this unauthorized public record information is not deleted from my credit report within the next 30 days, I have already filed a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission and will follow with a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau claim if you fail to respond within 30 days of receipt of this dispute.
