Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

I've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary 21-day notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

My account with TD AUTO FIN 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 those account 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.

TD AUTO FIN 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
