Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I have identified serious billing errors under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) on my credit report, including unverified late payment marks and the creditor 's failure to accurately reflect payments and credits. Despite my prior formal request for evidence substantiating these late marks, the creditor has failed to provide any legally required proof of investigation or verification. Furthermore, the creditor did not issue a proper billing statement at least 21 days before the due date, as mandated by law, rendering any late payment reporting invalid. This blatant disregard for accurate reporting is unacceptable. I demand that these inaccuracies be immediately corrected by updating the items to 'Paid as Agreed ' or removing them entirely from my credit report.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, Since I know what about The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I am requesting validation of the alleged debt. I am aware that there is a debt in my name but I am unaware if this is the correct amount due and your bill does not include a detailed breakdown of any fees.

Furthermore, I am allowed under the HIPAA law ( Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties.

I do not recall giving permission to your company to release my medical information to a third party. I understand that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but any details may only be revealed with the patients authorization, therefore my request is twofold and as follows : Validation of Debt and HIPAA authorization- Please provide a breakdown of fees including any and all collection costs and medical charges- Please provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you- Immediately cease any credit bureau reporting until debt has been validated by me Please send this information to my address listed above and accept this letter, sent certified mail, as my formal debt validation request, of which I am allowed under the FDCPA.

Please note that withholding the information you received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant will be a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request. I am requesting full documentation of what you received from the provider of service in connection with this alleged debt.

Furthermore, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agent. 
I will wait for you to send me the proof requested.

XX/XX/year> I called the number on the card, provided a name and address and the account number on the card ( public information or their card number ).

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding an issue with my credit report, specifically involving the deletion of an erroneous collection account by XXXX of the credit bureaus. 


Credit Bureau Involved : Equifax, and TransUnion Collection Account in Question : XXXX XXXX I recently discovered that a collection account was deleted from my credit report by XXXX after I disputed it. This deletion was made without proper notification or resolution of the dispute process. The collection account in question was not accurately reported, and I believe it was an error. 

As I have not received any notification from the credit bureau about the deletion of the account or the steps taken to validate the debt, I believe this may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I would like to request an investigation into this matter and clarification on why this deletion occurred without proper notice or resolution. 

Please let me know if you require any additional information to proceed with the investigation. I appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter.
