Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
I have submitted a dispute with equifax 6 times for a fraudulent collection made against me. I have submitted supporting documents that prove that the collection is a fraudulent charge. The dates for dispute are as follows XX/XX/24, XX/XX/24, XX/XX/24, XX/XX/24, XX/XX/24, XX/XX/24. All disputes made with supporting documents that prove the legitimacy of my dispute. Showing the contract, dates of execution, and when the contract was terminated as per the agreement. Every dispute has been met with no explanation on how the results were verified, other than the employee reps repeating that my name was in the collectors system so it must be accurate. At this moment I have no way to dispute as the equifax will instantly complete an investigation without actually investigating. Every dispute instantly voids itself upon phone disputes, online disputes, and mail in disputes. As of now I can't even dispute anything on the equifax website as the website currently says the collection is under dispute when it is in fact not.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I trust this correspondence finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a troubling discrepancy within my credit report concerning late payments associated with my account. Upon meticulous review of my report, I have identified instances where late payments have been inaccurately recorded, adversely affecting my credit standing. Upon contacting the company linked to this account, they acknowledged a fault on their part. They have committed to rectifying the error by updating and amending my account to accurately reflect my payment history. They attributed these inaccuracies to a system glitch that led to the erroneous reporting of late payments. It is perplexing to me that while other credit bureaus have already rectified the status of this account, your bureau continues to report these late payments. This disparity in reporting raises doubts regarding the verification protocols employed by your bureau to ensure the precision of reported information.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX - XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and 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 me 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 reported to be removed.

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. 


XXXX XXXX - XXXX 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

A few days ago I tried to exchange my car for a new one and I found out that this car has been related to an accident and that it has structural damage to the car. right side and it is not safe, this is how the person I tried to make the exchange with let me know, as the first buyer of a car from a dealer I feel that they lied to me just for making the sale of that car, also since the year 2021 until this current year, I have had to take it to be repaired more than XXXX  times due to different mechanical failures. Today I have taken it to be checked XXXX times for a failure that they have not been able to fix, now I am looking for help to be able to recover my investment now. the car seems to me to be a lemon car

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am very disappointed and concerned with XXXX XXXX XXXX. My past employer of mine had rolled over my XXXX account to XXXX  due to the amount on my account. I started a new job with a 403b with XXXX and thought it would be a good idea to just roll the XXXX account to my new 403b. I contacted XXXX and they sent out the check so I can send this to my new 403b. I requested in XXXX and I did not get it in the mail ( note i never had issues with my mail as I received notification from XXXX before ). I reached out and they recommended I do a replacement so I did early XXXX. I waited another 7-10 business days for this just to find out when it did not come the second time - someone fraudulently cashed out this check. This is suspicious and confusing how this could have happened. I wish they initially offered a tracking number for the mail sent to me in the beginning of this situation and not make it a guessing game. This is scary and frustrating as I just wanted a simple transfer to my new retirement plan. I have still been in contact with a representative with XXXX, but I have low confidence in this company and I hope this is resolved as soon as possible. The Bank XXXX used was FIFTH THIRD BANK.
