It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.

Re : XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

Original Account Number : # # # # # # # # # # # # XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to dispute the validity of the debt associated with the above-referenced account number, which was previously held with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and has since been sold to your collection agency. I received a communication regarding payment options, but I have several concerns about this account that I would like to address. 

Firstly, I was not properly notified of the transfer of this account to a collection agency, and I would like to request validation of the debt, including the original loan agreement, a full account history, and the documentation of the transfer of this account to your agency.

Secondly, I believe there may be inaccuracies in the reporting of this account to the credit bureaus. As such, I am requesting that you provide me with all relevant details and investigate any potential errors.

If this debt is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable, I request that you promptly remove it from my credit report and notify the relevant credit reporting agencies of the correction.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a response within the timeframe stipulated by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Thank you for your cooperation. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

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 on my XXXXXXXX XXXX account [ XXXX ]. 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.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. 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 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 in months that are reported late to be removed. 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. XXXX XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 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! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I asked to speak to someone that could explain the reasoning and she stated that the individual ( s ) that determines the approvals is confidential and she does not have access to that information. Her explanation was illogical but she suggested that I reach out to the Attorney General Office for assistance.
