Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/year> Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Information XXXX XXXX XXXX, Account Number : XXXX Dear Equifax Dispute Resolution Team, I am writing to formally dispute an item on my Equifax credit report that is inaccurate. The account in question is listed as XXXX XXXX XXXX, with account number XXXX. 
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered that this account has been inaccurately reported. I contacted the creditor directly, but they referred me back to the credit reporting agency. Despite this, Equifax has previously verified the account as accurate.

This incorrect information has significantly impacted my credit score and overall credit health, resulting in a denial of credit and a noticeable dip in my credit score.

Given these circumstances, I am requesting that Equifax either correct the inaccuracies or remove the account from my credit report. The presence of this incorrect information is unjustly harming my credit profile, and I respectfully ask for a thorough re-investigation of this matter.

Please provide me with a written confirmation of the results of your investigation and the actions taken to rectify this error.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Hello- there have been tremendous errors in my credit report and they are greatly affecting my interest rates. I have reached out to the credit bureaus but none of them are properly responding.

Upon reviewing my annual credit report, I see instances of some late payments reported, but in reality, I made on-time payments. These consumer reporting agencies have a crucial role to play and they must conduct a thorough investigation and get these sorted right away.

I made timely payments for all these accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) I would like to have a thorough investigation of the discrepancies and ask you to provide evidence of these late payments. If you can not furnish, please convert all these to " Paid On Time '' to reflect their true status.
