Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
A fair resolution would be for Equifax to : Permanently delete the inaccurate late payment ( XXXX ) associated with the following accounts, as they were reported without proper notification or opportunity for me to correct the issue : XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX Account XXXX : XXXX Reinvestigate the entries and require the furnishers to provide documented proof that they properly notified me ( e.g., dated billing notices, email reminders, or letters ) before reporting any late payment. 

If no proof can be provided, the disputed late payments must be permanently removed under FCRA 1681i ( a ), as unverifiable information can not be retained on a consumer credit file. 

Provide written confirmation of the deletion and an updated copy of my credit report within 15 business days. 

This request is grounded in my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and is based on the principle of fair and accurate reporting. I am not requesting anything beyond what the law already requires.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
After paying down my credit card balance significantly American Express has not updated my credit balance on the credit reports like they normally do around XXXX of each month when my billing statement is issued. I contacted American Express on XX/XX/year> to find out why they only reported my personal loan balance on credit report this month and not my credit card balance also. The agent was no help and TOLD me I can wait a few more days. This seems deceptive to me since after I paid down my balance significantly they are not updating my credit card credit reporting as usual. I filed a dispute with the credit reporting agencies and provided proof of my balance. XXXX  and XXXX  updated the balance on my credit report based on my evidence, but the credit card balance and last payment on my XXXX  report still has not been updated, it is now XX/XX/year>. Again they only reported the personal loan information to XXXX after I disputed.

Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because a collection agency is reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. I have disputed the account and requested validation from the debt collector, but they failed to provide proper documentation proving that the debt is valid and that I am legally responsible for it. Despite this, the agency continues to report the account to the credit bureaus. 
This is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( XXXX  ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX  ), which require that all information reported to credit bureaus be accurate and verifiable. I am requesting that this collection account be removed from my credit reports and that the collection agency cease all reporting and communication until the debt is properly validated.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.
