Ive been dealing with an issue involving Equifax and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX for a few months now. It was said that I was late several times so I disputed this as it was wrong. Then the matter was rectified and the account was updated to never late. A few days after that a late payment was added to my credit report. I really need this issue to be fixed and to report as on time, never late. This one issue is very painful and holding me back in life. I keep hearing different explanations for why this is allowed to go on but enough is enough. I also have not been able to login XXXX for a while now in order to submit proof that this issue has been fixed before already.

In XXXX of XXXX, the XXXX student loans associated with my wifesXX/XX/XXXX education of which I am a consigner were purchased by XXXX XXXX XXXX. We immediately had issues with receiving the correct balance or amount due, nor could they ( XXXX ) explain why I was receiving late payments for loans not associated to my account number. This situation continued for the better part of 6 months when I finally was able to set up autopayments associated to the multiple accounts. Unfortunately, and what turned out to be unlawfully XXXX reported to the credit bureaus that I was late on payments an excessive number of times. I was never provided an answer as to why and was met with silence when asked for an explanation. 
Fast forward to XXXX of XXXX, the Covid crisis hits and my wife ( now a practicing XXXX ) is eligible for temporary deferment for the above-mentioned loans. We followed the proper procedure to defer and were assured by XXXX our account would remain in good standing. In XXXX, I receive yet another notification of 30 plus days non-payment for a second account number. Countless hours on the phone with XXXX determined that when the data was migrated to their system in XXXX of XXXX my social security number had been miss keyed by one digit on several of the loans, thus creating another me with a different social security number and a second loan number. XXXX representatives openly acknowledged their error and agreed that this was why I was inconsistent information each time I called. 
Following countless apologies and open admission of their error the issue was escalated to the XXXX collection team who were instructed to reverse the false entries in my credit report. They did not and refused to do so with no coherent explanation. Attached are detailed extemporaneous notes to capture in detail my years long interactions with XXXX. These notes clearly capture a level of incompetence and wanting negligence by XXXX that should be considered criminal.
