Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against multiple creditors for several violations of consumer protection laws as outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1692e, 1681b ( 2 ), and 1681s2. The violations pertain to false or misleading representations, inaccurate reporting of debt and payments, and responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. 

The following creditors have engaged in actions that are in direct violation of the aforementioned statutes : 1. XXXX XXXX - Charged off the account and continues to report the debt as the lender. 
2. XXXX XXXX - Charged off the account twice, once in XX/XX/XXXX and again in XX/XX/XXXX, while continuing to report the debt as the lender. 
3. XXXX XXXX - XXXX reported premium payments as a collection on my credit file, with an inaccurate amount. 
4. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. -Account are closed but not reported Paid as agreed which still inaccurately reported by XXXX XXXX Equifax XXXX and XXXX XXXX. There are accounts are past the 7 years outdated and still being reported. 
5. XXXX XXXX  - Failure to update the status of a student loan that has been forgiven, reporting the loan amount but not reflecting the XXXX balance. 

These actions are not only misleading but also detrimental to my credit report and financial standing. Despite providing written instructions and resolving certain accounts, these creditors persist in reporting inaccurate and misleading information. 

I request a thorough investigation into the conduct of these creditors and urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to take appropriate action to rectify these violations. Additionally, I request the correction of my credit reports to accurately reflect the resolved accounts, the forgiven student loan, and the accurate status of each account. 

Enclosed with this letter are relevant documents, including account statements, payment confirmations, and any correspondence exchanged with the aforementioned creditors. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take necessary actions to ensure compliance with consumer protection laws. 

Thank you for this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my continued frustration and dissatisfaction with the unresolved issue concerning the late open accounts entry on my credit report, despite multiple attempts to correct this discrepancy. 

As detailed in my initial complaint, I reported an inaccuracy in my credit report concerning the late opening of an accounts. Despite my efforts and your acknowledgment of the issue, the problem persists, adversely affecting my creditworthiness. 

I submitted a follow-up dispute, providing additional documentation and clarification to support my claim. Regrettably, subsequent to this second attempt, the late open account remains on my credit report, and I have yet to receive a satisfactory resolution to this matter. 

I understand that the credit reporting process involves careful investigation, and I appreciate the importance of accuracy in credit reporting. However, the prolonged presence of this erroneous information is causing undue stress and negatively impacting my financial standing. 

I urge you to expedite the resolution of this matter by conducting a thorough and timely investigation into the late open accounts entry on my credit report. It is my expectation that all necessary measures will be taken to rectify this situation promptly, ensuring the accurate representation of my credit history. 

I request your immediate attention to this matter and insist on receiving clear communication regarding the steps being taken to address this issue. As a responsible consumer, I have consistently provided the required information to facilitate a comprehensive investigation, and I expect the same diligence from 3 Credit Bureaus. 

Please keep me informed of the progress made in this investigation and provide a specific timeline for the removal of the late open accounts from my credit report. I believe that prompt action on your part will help restore the accuracy of my credit information and prevent any further negative impact on my financial well-being. I am asking for your assistance to correct these late open accounts in my credit file : XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$150000.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$13000.00}.
