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

The CRAs are willfully noncompliant with FCRA regulations. Ive informed them that this information is inaccurate to which they continuously update it as valid. Late payments are being furnished onto my consumer report, and pursuant to FCRA 15 usc 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) the consumer report does not include any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Im demanding for ALL late payments to be removed immediately and the accounts to be updated as PAID AS AGREED, NEVER LATE. Further more the Charge offs furnished onto my consumer according to the IRS publications are a certificate of indebtedness that must be removed immediately as this is income and income can not be reported onto the consumer. 26 CFR 1.61-1a THIS IS IN FACT VIOLATION OF MY PRIVACY ACCORDING TO THE PRIVACY ACT OF 1974

It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

I am utterly disappointed right now, you complete disregard your own stated timeline. In your memo dated, it's explicitly stated that the results of the investigation would be provided to me within 30 days. That deadline has come and gone without a single word from them regarding the status or findings. 

This lack of follow-through and blatant failure to uphold their commitment is unacceptable. You are the bureau and you have ample time to conduct your work and there is no justified reason for this excessive delay in sharing conclusions. In your memo built an expectation that I relied upon, and your inaction represents a breach of that assurance.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I filed a XXXX  complaint with the company XXXX regarding account XXXX. I informed them of incorrect information reporting, and they stated that the consumer reporting agencies may reflect an activity date based on their reporting, but XXXX does not directly report a date of last activity or date last reported. Despite my attempts to resolve this issue directly with your company, the inaccurate reporting persists, prompting me to escalate the matter further. 

Upon reviewing my credit reports from XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX, I discovered glaring inconsistencies in the information provided. XXXX reported a date of last activity as XX/XX/XXXX, while Equifax indicated XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. These dates are inaccurate and do not align with the actual activity on the account. 

Additionally, there are discrepancies in the reported high credit limit across all XXXX  credit bureaus. Such inconsistencies not only violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) but also cast doubt on the accuracy and reliability of the information provided. 

Furthermore, it has come to my attention that this account was sold to XXXX XXXX, and the balance reported aligns with the correct high balance as reported by Equifax. However, the lack of validation from all XXXX  credit reporting agencies has contributed to the discrepancies observed. 

I must emphasize that this account is past the statute of limitations in the state of Texas and should have been removed after being transferred. The continued reporting of inaccurate information has had a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness and financial standing. 

As a result, I am requesting the immediate removal of account XXXX from all XXXX  credit reports. Failure to rectify this situation promptly may compel me to pursue legal action for gross misconduct and defamation of character.

The correct information is below. I will be keeping record of our correspondence for court records. This false reporting not only compromises my creditworthiness but also undermines the integrity of the credit reporting system. See the correct information below and remove this account immediately : Open Date : XX/XX/XXXX Last Payment Date : XX/XX/XXXX Closed Date : XX/XX/XXXX High Balance : {$3000.00}.

I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized inquiries on my credit report for the second time. Despite my previous correspondence and submission of the required documentation, including the FTC Identity Theft Report, these unauthorized inquiries remain on my credit file. Upon contacting the respective institutions, it was confirmed that these inquiries were made in error. Additionally, I have been assured that these inquiries would be promptly removed from my credit report. However, it has come to my attention that, unlike your bureau, both XXXX and XXXX no longer report these unauthorized inquiries subsequent to the submission of the FTC report. I am requesting an immediate reinvestigation of these unauthorized inquiries. This investigation must include a detailed review of the method of verification employed by your bureau to substantiate the continued reporting of these inquiries. If your bureau can not provide conclusive proof that these inquiries were authorized by me, they must be deleted from my credit report without delay.
