Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the late payment entries on my credit report under the protections provided by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1666b ). After reviewing my credit report, I have found that certain late payment entries are either inaccurate or unverifiable. I request a thorough investigation into these entries and their removal if they are found to be incorrect or can not be verified. The account ( s ) in question is/are as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Late Payment : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX  XXXX, Account Number : XXXX. Date of Late Payment : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX, Date of Late Payment : XXXX XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX, Account Number : XXXX, Date of Late Payment : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. 


Under 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors are required to promptly credit payments to the consumers account on the date they are received or earlier if applicable. If the creditor failed to properly apply my payments or reported erroneous late payments, this constitutes a violation of federal law. Therefore, I kindly ask that you investigate these entries, as they may reflect incorrect information or improper billing practices. Additionally, in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681i of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I request that your agency ensure the reported information is accurate, complete, and verifiable. If it is not, I ask that it be promptly removed from my credit report. Failure to correct inaccurate information within the legally mandated time frame could further violate my rights as a consumer under these federal statutes. Please provide written confirmation of any changes made and send me an updated copy of my credit report once the investigation is complete. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your response within the 30-day timeframe required by the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
On multiple occasions, I have submitted all the required documentation to Equifax to unblock my credit file so I can access my credit report. This includes certified mail submissions of my proof of address, drivers license, and Social Security card. Despite these efforts, Equifax continues to claim they have not received my information, preventing me from accessing my own credit file. 

The issue began XX/XX/year>, and since then, I have taken the following actions : 1. Mailed my documents via certified mail several times to ensure delivery.

2. Retained proof of delivery, including certified mail receipts.

3. Followed up to confirm receipt and resolution, but received responses stating that my documents were not received. 

As a result of Equifaxs failure to unblock my file, third-party services like XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX are unable to pull my credit reports, further hindering my ability to monitor my credit.
