Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I found some instances of late payments on an account for which I have consistently made on-time payments after looking through my consumer reports. Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role in accurately reporting consumer information. It is imperative that this information be reported with utmost accuracy. I have never missed a payment on the following account : XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I request a thorough investigation into these discrepancies and urge you to provide evidence, such as statements, demonstrating the lateness of these payments. If unable to furnish such proof, I demand that these payments be promptly updated to reflect their true status as on-time, as I have consistently upheld my payment obligations without delay.

Company: Google Compare Credit Cards Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
The company Google, was illegally investigating me as means of recruitment. I, a proponent of their services at XXXX point in time, had moved away from using their services. 

This dates back to when I had phone service with them in the first half of XXXX. There were constant instability problems, wrong billing amounts, wrong billing cycles. They claim it was for me to audit their customer service reps, a service I provide through my company, which they never reached out to through the proper channels. I eventually cancelled my service with them as this is a ridiculous business practice. This whole fiasco cost me upwards of {$25000.00} in lost business. 

Now, here we are. XX/XX/XXXX. I have been getting attacked through their software and hardware systems. My Google XXXX is being accessed remotely to steal private information, intellectual property, and disrupting my everyday business. 
They are lying about my data usage. Wanting to charge me for services I'm not even currently using. 
And just now, they hacked my Internet service, through the XXXX that had their Google XXXX service last year. 

This disruption is not only disrespectful & unethical, it cost me business once again. This time : a {$180000.00} deal I was trying to close. 

I was in the middle of using XXXX, the software app from XXXX, and my XXXX XXXX. All of which began having problems with my XXXX XXXX. 

That's when I used my cybersecurity work to figure out who it was. XXXX had physically sent agents to my office to disrupt my work. 

I need this addressed ASAP, as the Google Employees based out of their XXXX XXXX, have now cost me well over {$200000.00} USD. This is more than my taxable income in XXXX. 

This is unacceptable. How is it that a company this large, goes after XXXX man companies by hacking their infrastructure. 

They have also been part of an international identity theft ring that uses " credit and background checks '' to gather customer information which is then sold on the XXXX market as " security breaches ''. They first requested my driver 's license to complete a purchase on my XXXX XXXX. 

Something that should be seen as an illegal search and XXXX by a private company. A constitutional infringement of my rights.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Im writing to formally dispute multiple late payments reported on my credit file, which are inaccurate due to a situation involving unauthorized access to my personal accounts. For the past year or 2, I experienced a pattern of unexpected missed payments across several of my credit accounts. At the time, I was in a relationship where the person I was dating had access to my personal laptop and logins. Following the end of that relationship, I discovered that several of my accounts had been tampered with including the disabling of autopay settings, the removal of saved payment methods, and changes to my email and notification settings. This individual later admitted over the phone that they accessed my accounts out of spite and interfered with my financial information, which I did not notice immediately. These actions directly led to multiple missed or late payments on accounts that were previously in good standing. 
Since uncovering this, I have : Secured all of my financial accounts. 
Taken steps to ensure this situation will not happen again Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am exercising my right to dispute these inaccurate negative marks. Specifically : 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 requires furnishers to report accurate information and correct any errors upon notice 15 U.S. Code 1681i requires credit reporting agencies to investigate disputed items and remove any unverifiable or inaccurate information within 30 days Because these late payments were the result of unauthorized interference not willful nonpayment or neglect I am requesting that they be removed from my credit report. If the furnishers can not verify with documentation that I personally made the changes that led to these missed payments, I ask that the items be deleted in accordance with federal law. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Please notify me of the outcome of your investigation.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 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 to be 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. 


EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports
