Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors.

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion. 

I am also placing a FTC reference number- # XXXX so that you can verify the inaccuracy of fraud that is placed on my credit report. 

Now based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation. 

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I claimed that Care Credit threatened to list a bad credit report on the three credit bureaus for a " Medical '' debt that I had co-signed for my daughter. I was never informed of this delinquency because my daughter was up-to-date with this bill until she moved away. I was unaware of the status of this loan and never received any notification of this delinquency. I only found out about it when I applied but was not considered for a line of credit with XXXXXXXX XXXX because of a low credit score caused by a charge-off from Synchrony Bank XXXX 
I called Synchrony Bank that same day and made arrangements to pay the balance off in three monthly payments. I set up the payment schedule with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  as I spoke to the representative from Synchrony. The payments were sent to Synchrony Bank according to my agreement. My bank statements show that these payments were made as agreed, but Synchrony Bank 's answer to my complaint said they were not made as agreed. 
My complaint is threefold : 1. Although CFPB was aware that this was a " medical '' debt, they failed to comply with President Biden 's directive of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX that medical debt delinquency should not be reported to the credit bureaus. 
2. Synchrony Bank never notified me that this account was delinquent ; I had to find out when I was turned down for a line of credit because my credit score was lowered from XXXX to XXXX. 
3. Synchrony Bank defaulted on their agreement to clear my credit and considered it paid by not posting the payments.
