Consumer complaint received 2024-06-02
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to bring to your attention the inaccuracies present in my credit report across the three major reporting agencies- XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 ) explicitly states that information can not be reported without my consent. It is the policy of Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and protect the security of their non-public personal information. 

In my credit report, I have identified discrepancies concerning an account with XXXX XXXXXXXX reports the account as being opened on XX/XX/year>, while XXXX and Equifax report different open dates- XX/XX/year>. This inconsistency is both inaccurate and detrimental to my credit profile. I request the immediate removal of this item from my credit report. 

Furthermore, XXXX and XXXX report a credit limit of {$300.00} for this account, whereas Equifax reports the credit limit as {$0.00}. These discrepancies in credit limit information across the reporting agencies further compound the inaccuracies in my report. 

The laws 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o are vital in defending my claims. These provisions outline the civil liabilities for willful and negligent noncompliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, emphasizing the importance of accurate reporting by the credit reporting agencies. The continued reporting of inaccurate information despite my dispute suggests willful noncompliance ( 15 USC 1681n ) and/or negligent noncompliance ( 15 USC 1681o ).

Additionally, 16 CFR 313 and 16 CFR 313.7 are pertinent to my claims. These regulations pertain to the privacy of consumer financial information and mandate accurate reporting to ensure consumer privacy rights are upheld. Reporting inaccurate information without my consent infringes upon my privacy rights, and these regulations mandate the protection and accuracy of such information. 

It is also noteworthy that while XXXX and XXXX report this account with a high credit limit of {$250.00}, Equifax inaccurately reports the credit limit as {$300.00}. This disparity in reporting further emphasizes the urgent need for correction.

I wish to underscore that the inclusion of inaccurately reported late payment remarks on my accounts not only raises significant concerns but also represents a blatant violation of the regulations delineated in the 15 USC 1666. This statute, an integral component of the Fair Credit Billing Act, specifically aims to safeguard consumers against unjust billing practices and mandates the accurate reporting of payment histories. Each payment associated with these accounts has been diligently and promptly rendered within the specified timeframes.
