Consumer complaint received 2023-07-17 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I had an open auto loan with TXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that has been paid off. However, before it was paid off, my XX/XX/XXXX payment was marked as 30 days late when the payment was called in on XX/XX/2023. While on the call the recording stated that the call was being recorded and towards the end of the call I was asked to speak my name again for the recording then the payment was completed. I received a call from XXXX a short time afterwards informing me that my account was 30 days late. I informed them that Id made my payment but after checking with my bank I was informed that they never withdrew the payment. I immediately made another payment to XXXX. I asked if they could pull that recorded to call so that they would know the error was on their end. The representative then informed me that although the recoding says the call is being recorded, it only records if you speak to live agents so they wont be able to listen to it resulting in the 30 day late mark remaining on my report. I am in the process of purchasing a house and this late pay marking has been detrimental to my credit. I have any control over XXXX Auto phone system. Nor was i aware that they were obviously having phone issues as a consumer. I am requesting that the call be listened to ( which will prove the error was on XXXX part ) and that my evidence of the 5 minute call be reviewed on my billing report from XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute and request the investigation and deletion of incorrect information regarding a specific account on my credit report. I recently reviewed my credit reports from your agencies and discovered an inaccuracy related to a charge off account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number # XXXX ( XXXX ) and # XXXX ( TransUnion ), XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX  XXXX, MO XXXX. 

I noticed that the dates of last activity are inconsistent across all three major credit reporting agencies. TransUnion shows the date of last activity as XX/XX/2022, XXXX as XX/XX/2022, and XXXX has not reported a date of last activity. The inconsistency in the reporting of the date of last activity violates 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that credit reporting agencies must provide accurate and complete information. 


As a result of this discrepancy, I request that you both conduct a thorough investigation to verify the inaccuracy of the reported information. I respectfully request that the account be deleted from my credit report. 

To assist in your investigation, please find enclosed a copy of my credit report highlighting the disputed account. I have also included a copy of my SSN and a recent utility bill as proof of my identity and lease with address. 


Please address this matter promptly, and I expect to receive your response within 30 days as required by the FCRA. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to receiving confirmation that the disputed account has been removed from my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Your efficiency and prompt attention to correcting some of the adverse information previously stated on my credit file is appreciated, yet there are still accounts that need to be addressed again and to be corrected immediately. The three credit bureaus must verify these accounts in accordance with Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is not acceptable to report these accounts as unconfirmed information without validating them within the legally required time range. Please update the following inaccurate accounts in my report ASAP. Thank you.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, when monthly payment is due, I made a payment of {$2700.00} to one of my XXXX  XXXX cards. The payment was made on XXXX XXXX  EST presumably after their " cut off '' time of XXXX XXXX  EST that I was not aware of. The payment was scheduled to be posted on XX/XX/XXXX because of it. The bank would have posted the payment on XX/XX/XXXX anyway even if the payment was made before XXXX XXXX  EST because it was a US holiday " XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. I called customer service that same night on a recorded line and the lady said she would waive the late fee. Upon checking today, the late fee of {$40.00} was never waived. So I called again tonight and spoke with two senior account managers to let them know this is misleading and violating UDAAP regulation. They refused to escalate for a manual override to waive the late fee. I need the late fee to be waived.
