My account with 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.

XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to the courthouse asking do they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating " They do not report any bankruptcies to anybody. '' So if that's the case. How did the credit bureaus verify my bankruptcy as 100 % Accurate. They never did a fair investigation according to the 15 USC 1681. 

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States ; The term " investigative consumer report '' means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's 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. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumer 's credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

They also violated my rights numerous times. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681. 

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy. 

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

Equifax claims that they verified this Bankruptcy with XXXX XXXX however I attached the letter that I received from XXXX XXXX showing that theyve removed this unverifiable information from my credit repair. Since this removal, Ive mailed Equifax a copy for their records and they continue to report this inaccurate information on my credit report. This lets me know that they did not do a proper investigation because they have not removed this Bankruptcy from my credit report.
