Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I am contesting any information on my credit report that I believe to be inaccurate. The data included in my credit report must be validated before it is included on my report. I can not recognize or accept the allegation of delinquency and derogatoriness without factual proof. I challenge the reportability of this allegation, which does not meet federal or state reporting requirements.

For any account that is alleged to be delinquent or derogatory, I request evidence that shows why the account is considered to be in that state. This should include proof of a permissible purpose for any inquiry into the account. i gave them 30 days to investigate the matter and confirm that it is being reported correctly or remove it from the report. If any of these claims are not true, please delete them immediately.

Below is a summary of the data in which I am challenging : Summary of Accounts being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ( XXXX ) - ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am reporting that there are some negative items in my credit profile, but I have not confirmed or accepted that these are accurate. I dispute these claims and demand that any negative information be removed from the reports immediately. The claims that this information in my report is negative, untrue, incorrect, incomplete, untimely, and not verifiable are unsubstantiated. I have yet to be provided physical verifiable proof that the claims of negativity within my report are true. After reviewing my report I noticed several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I refute their allegations and challenge them to provide proof that they have the right to report this incomplete negative information about me. Document that they have complied with the reporting requirements, and report without any deviations. If they have not complied with the requirements or there are any negative aspects below that have been challenged, they must remove them from my report. Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates Also per 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : A - Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. B - Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate. C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to CRRG, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards. Also as stated in the CRRG Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate. This is important to remember because it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. With that said! I found some mistakes and inaccuracies in your report and I would like to invoke my rights to dispute/challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. If they continue to report claims that are not perfect, it shows that they do not care about my rights as a consumer.I don't think it's fair for them to report on me in a way that isn't confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting.The following claims about me were not reported correctly and do not meet federal requirements. I Below is a summary of the data in which I am challenging : Summary of Accounts being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Summary of Public Records being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX  Bankruptcy ( XXXX ) - ( XXXX ) Dismissed XXXX XXXX  Bankruptcy ( XXXX ) - ( XXXX ) Discharged According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 611 of FCRA you have a responsibility of promptly deleting any information which is inaccurate or incomplete so it doesn't get reported in my report! This is my understanding as well. It's important to note that under the FCRA, even if an account has only been speculated upon or never confirmed in any waythe burden falls on you ( the credit bureau ) to provide evidence of its veracity before it can be placed on my credit reportThe information in my credit report is wrong! It was never proven to be factual, so now I have decided that enough 's enough and will exercise my consumer rights.The following account allegations are either untrue, unverified and incorrect. Please remove them immediately or I will have no choice but to take legal action against them Below is a summary of the data in which I am challenging : Summary of Accounts being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX My consumer rights are being violated with this inaccurate information!

With the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) section 611 ( 15 U S C 1681I ) and Metro 2 compliance standards, I challenge all inaccuracies or deficiencies of reporting.The credit report I received was not accurate, which surprises me because they should be adhering to the FCRA and applicable Metro 2 data field formatting standards.OK, so here 's my challenge for them : Make a document that shows all of the evidence and sends it to me. It should be verified, complete with sources! The 2020 CRRG states that any deviation from these standards jeopardizes the integrity of data.

This is a serious issue! The integrity of their data could be compromised if these standards aren't followed. The report they sent me is not accurate. Are they sure that all of the information is accurate and properly formatted? The below-noted claims are disputed and have not been confirmed as facts. Please take care of any false accounts on my credit report. I am requesting that you fix this issue as soon as possible because it will affect me financially in the future if left unchecked! I can't live with anything less than 100 % accuracy on my credit report. I want only factually accurate, verified and compliant data documented in it!

I only want factually accurate, verified, and compliant data documented on my credit report.
