Complaint narrative:
Please help me investigate accounts from these companies that are incorrectly reporting me as late. Upon reviewing my credit report, I found certain accounts with inaccurate late payment marks. These accounts should not have any late payment remarks. I request these remarks be removed and the accounts updated to reflect the agreed positive status.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is reporting late payments on two separate accounts that are factually and legally indefensible. Specifically, a derogatory mark was placed on XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( account number XXXX ) for a reported late payment on XX/XX/XXXX and another on XXXX XXXX XXXX ( account number XXXX ) for a reported late payment on XX/XX/XXXX2025. In both cases, Equifax is displaying a past due amount of {$0.00}, which renders the reporting of a late payment inherently contradictory and patently inaccurate. 

There is no such thing as a delinquent or past due account with a balance of XXXX. If there is no amount owed, there is no legitimate basis to mark the account as late. Reporting a delinquency while simultaneously indicating that the account is current, paid, and carries no past due is a textbook violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Specifically, 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) requires Equifax to maintain reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy in the information it reports. These entries do not meet even the minimum threshold of accuracythey are sloppy, unverified, and damaging. 

When I filed disputes to correct this, Equifax failed to follow the proper procedure required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ). Rather than investigating the discrepancies and requesting validation from the furnishers, Equifax closed the dispute claiming the late payments had been verified, without supplying any supporting documentationno payment histories, no contractual details, no correspondence from the creditornothing. This is not a reasonable reinvestigation. It is a refusal to act, and a systemic failure to protect consumers from errors they did not create. 

These false late payment designations have caused significant harm. My credit score has suffered, Ive been denied access to credit I rightfully qualify for, and Ive had to waste time and energy repeatedly defending myself against derogatory reporting that should never have existed. Lenders see these false delinquencies and make assumptions about my financial reliability, which is humiliating and unjust. I fulfilled my obligations on these accounts. There is no delinquency to reportand Equifax knows, or should know, that it can not legally sustain this kind of reporting when the past due balance is XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
SUBJECT : Request for immediate deletion of accounts reported by Discover Bank due to lack of verification, inaccurate reporting, and violation of due process To whom it may concern, I hereby formally respond to the communication issued by Discover Bank in connection with CFPB case # XXXX. I appreciate the attention provided; however, I must express my total disagreement with Discover 's response, which I consider evasive, legally deficient and violates my rights as a consumer. 
RELEVANT FACTS : 1. Discover Bank indicates that it obtained a court judgment against me regarding the account terminated in XXXX. However, I was never notified of this demand by any means. I did not receive any certified letters, court summonses, sheriff 's visits, or phone calls notifying me of that legal process. This constitutes a serious violation of my right to due process of law under the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution., since a judgment was handed down against me without giving me the opportunity to defend myself.

2. Discover Bank continues to report these accounts as charge-off and valid, without having provided sufficient proof to verify their legitimacy. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically : o 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) : I have the right to have any inaccurate information reinvestigated and removed if it can not be verified.

o 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) : The creditor must correct or delete the information if, after investigation, he or she is unable to confirm it as accurate.

o 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : Creditors must ensure the maximum accuracy of the information reported.

3. The company has not delivered any contract signed by me or proof of authorization for the use of the credit. Nor has it provided documented evidence of the court process, nor of the complete payment history. This shows that the minimum legal verification to continue reporting this information as valid has not been met.

4. This negative history has directly affected my ability to obtain credit and other fair financial opportunities.

RESOLUTION REQUESTED : 1. Immediate removal of all negative information associated with Discover accounts ending in XXXX and XXXX from my credit reports with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
2. Formal investigation into the judicial procedure used by Discover Bank to obtain a judgment without notifying me, which may require its annulment.

3. Corresponding regulatory penalties against Discover for failing to comply with legal verification requirements under the FCRA and for violating constitutional due process.

I am willing to collaborate with any additional documentation that is required. I appreciate your attention and support in this highly serious situation.
