The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files. I found that under section 605b ( a ) Equifax and XXXX shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has closed the account as charged off due to non payment is and reporting to my credit as 90 days past due unfairly. XXXX requires an active connection to your checking account using a third party services. The link consistently failed to work and I could not otherwise make a payment. I switched phones from an XXXX to an XXXX device and XXXX does not support XXXX  phones. Their app is required for all activities related to the credit account so I lost any ability to access my account. I sent numerous support request tickets asking for assistance to make a payment to the account and did not receive a response until just this week finally they responded with a text message link to make a manual payment, which I did to payoff the full balance. XXXX 's response stated they email me statements with a mailing address to send a payment - I've never received an emailed statement from them. During the course of my inability to access the account or make payments, XXXX sent periodic text messages with inconsistent information. I'd receive a text saying the account was 15 days past due followed by 90 days, followed by 30 days, almost due, nothing was ever presented to me with accurate information. XXXX not once communicated to me in a timely or accurate manner. XXXX never sent anything to me in the mail or make any phone calls to me. XXXX is not handling their credit product appropriately, they're making it difficult for customer 's to responsibly manage the account, and I would like assistance in having XXXX update my credit report to remove the late payment reporting due to their error and failed ability to provide customer support.

Complaint narrative:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I've contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX  & they told me I've never missed a payment, yet Experian refuses to remove me from being listed as late on the account. They told me they are not required to allow me to dispute this inaccurate information any longer. I constantly have to do Experians job for them to shield my credit & prove my identity. I've sent documentation of the concerned months in question prior and they STILL refused to remove these damaging negatives from my profile. Please remove the late dates from this account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
