Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY.

The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system.

I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding an inaccurate late payment being reported on my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX account. According to the creditor, the payment was due on XX/XX/XXXX, and I submitted payment on XX/XX/XXXX of the same year. This is a delay of only 9 days, and therefore, it should not be classified as a 30-day late payment under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) or standard credit reporting guidelines. 
Despite having disputed this with the credit reporting agencies, the inaccurate 30-day late mark remains on my credit report. This false information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial standing, and I find it unacceptable that it has not been corrected.

Under the FCRA, furnishers of information are required to report accurate and verifiable information. Reporting a 9-day late payment as " 30 days late '' is materially false and misleading.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint against Equifax for repeated and willful violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in connection with identity theft disputes I have filed. Despite providing Equifax with a complete FTC Identity Theft Report and supporting documentation, they have failed to block or delete fraudulent account from my credit report, as required by law. Specifically, the account in question include XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX which XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX confirmed would be removed but remains on my report. This is identity theft-related and should have been blocked under 1681c-2 of the FCRA. Equifaxs refusal to act constitutes a violation of 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ), for failing to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation, and 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ), for reinserting accounts without proper notice. These negligent actions have caused me emotional distress, wasted time, and financial harm. 
For reference and further substantiation, I am attaching a copy of the letter dated XX/XX/2025, which outlines my dispute and legal demand for deletion. This letter serves as formal notice and supports the claims made in this complaint.
