Consumer complaint received 2024-06-24
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: RFNA, LP (SC)

" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

On or about XX/XX/year> I requested Equifax validate or verify that a collection listed on my report belongs to me, as I have no knowledge of the account. On XX/XX/year> I received a response from the debt collector via mail, and their response was a computer generated bill, with someone else 's name ( similar ) and an address that I don't recognize. Under FDCPA, FTC, and FCRA laws, this form of validating a debt with a computer generated bill, and nothing to actually indicate that this debt belongs to me, is not sufficient proof of validation.
