Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the late payment entries currently listed on my credit report. I have repeatedly attempted to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, yet no significant action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the inaccuracies remain unresolved. 
This prolonged issue has caused ongoing financial strain and has negatively affected both my credit standing and overall well-being. The process of addressing these errors has been not only frustrating but also mentally and emotionally exhausting. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial history. This includes the timely correction or removal of outdated, incorrect, or unverifiable information. I am therefore urging your office to take immediate and appropriate action to update or delete the reported late payment entries in question.

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: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.
