Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding an issue with my credit report that is negatively affecting my financial standing. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this matter directly with the creditor/furnisher, but they have failed to provide an adequate response. Below are the details of my complaint : 1. Charged-Off Account or Collection Account Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXXXXXX  Account Number : XXXX Issue : This account was charged off/placed in collections without proper notification or validation of the debt. 

I requested validation of the debt per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), but the creditor/collection agency failed to provide sufficient documentation. 

The reported balance and payment history contain inaccuracies that I have disputed with the credit bureaus, yet the creditor refuses to correct or remove the erroneous data. 

The account was sold to a third-party collector, yet it remains listed under the original creditor, creating duplicate reporting and unfair harm to my credit profile. 

I am requesting the immediate deletion of this inaccurate and unverifiable account from my credit report or proper documentation proving its validity.

2. Unauthorized/Incorrect Hard Inquiry Company That Performed Inquiry : XXXX  Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year> Issue : I did not authorize this company to pull my credit. 

No written consent or permissible purpose exists for this hard inquiry, which is a violation of the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ). 

Despite my dispute, the credit bureaus and the creditor have refused to remove the unauthorized inquiry. 

I am requesting the immediate removal of this hard inquiry from my credit report, as it was made without my authorization.

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the following late payment entries on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX These entries are incorrect and do not accurately reflect my actual payment history. I have made multiple attempts to get these discrepancies investigated and corrected, yet no meaningful action has been taken.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to a credit report that accurately represents my financial history. This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate action to update or remove these late payment entries, as failing to do so is a direct violation of my rights under federal law. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution as soon as possible.
