Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me.

The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

I'm writing to dispute a fraudulent account that has been reported under my name and appears on my credit report. This account is the result of unauthorized use of my identity, and I had absolutely no involvement in opening or using it. Let me be clear : I did not authorize this account, and I had no knowledge of it until reviewing my credit file. This is identity theft, plain and simple, and I will not be held responsible for someone else 's actions.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is currently reporting a late payment on the XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  account, despite the fact that the account reflects a {$0.00} past due amount. This is yet another example of inaccurate and misleading credit reporting. A {$0.00} past due balance indicates that no delinquency is present, which means the late payment notation is false and damaging. It is unacceptable that Equifax would permit such an error to remain on my credit file, especially when it has real financial consequences for my borrowing potential. Inaccurate late paymentsespecially those not supported by any balance or evidenceconstitute willful misreporting and must be corrected.
