Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Subject : Request for Removal of Unverifiable Accounts Dear Credit Reporting Department, I am writing to formally request the removal of an accounts from my credit report as reported by [ Equifax ] This request is based on the recent deletion of an accounts by XXXX, one of the four major credit reporting agencies.

Since XXXX has removed this account after its verification process, I request that you do the same and remove this unverifiable account from my credit report. 

Supporting Consumer Laws : FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) requires that inaccurate or unverifiable information must be deleted from a consumer 's credit file. I am exercising my right. 

to ensure that my credit report remains fair, accurate, and free of unverifiable information. Since XXXX has deemed this account unverifiable and removed it, you must take similar action. 

Additionally, under FCRA Section 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), information suppliers must report only complete and accurate information. With XXXX having deemed this information unverifiable, I urge you to align its records accordingly. 
Please provide confirmation of this removal within 30 days of receipt of this request. If the account is not removed, I am prepared to pursue further actions, including filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal action under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including Section 616 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ), which allows consumers to seek legal recourse for willful non- compliance, and Section 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681o ) for negligent non-compliance.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter, as it directly impacts my credit report 's integrity. Please notify me in writing once this deletion has been processed.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) regarding the unauthorized access to my personally identifiable information by Elon Musk and his employees through the Department of Educations databases. 

On or around XX/XX/year>, I became aware that individuals associated with Elon Musk, who are neither school officials nor authorized representatives, accessed databases that include my personal education records without my knowledge or consent. I am aware that usage of databases is monitored, recorded and/or subjected to audit. I did not provide any authorization for such access, and I believe this constitutes a violation of my FERPA rights.

To my understanding, the Department of Education is required to safeguard students personal records and only grant access to authorized parties under FERPA guidelines. The unauthorized access by private individuals or corporate representatives is a serious breach of these protections.

A complaint has been filed with the US Department of Education Student Privacy Policy Office, Federal Student Aid ( FSA ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Ohio Attorney General, and my current loan holder. 

I respectfully request that your office investigate this matter and take the appropriate action to ensure my personal information remains protected. Please provide me with any relevant findings, corrective actions, and steps I can take to prevent further unauthorized access to my records.
