Complaint narrative:
I have recently reached out to all 3 major credit bureaus via certified mail that requires a signature, asking them to verify some accounts. I also requested a complete investigation on everything on my credit report, and they did, and stated everything was accurate. After I looked over my credit reports to do my own research, I still found some items that are reporting inaccurate on my consumer reports. There are several items reporting on different dates, different amounts, accounts opening, closing on different dates, or late payments.

After carefully reading my consumer laws and the Fair Credit Act, I've noticed that some of my consumer rights have been violated. According to 15 U.S Code 1681 the consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to assure the maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. Also after reading my consumer laws, I've noticed that if a consumer agency is reporting inaccurate information on my consumer report that is a violation of my rights.15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. State I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2 : also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. Several of my consumer rights have been violated by the accounts listed below, therefore I demand these account to be removed from my credit report. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX Inaccurate items are as follows XX/XX/XXXX I was marked 90days late by XXXX but marked paid on time by Experian. XX/XX/XXXX I was marked paid on time by Experian and XXXX, but 30 days late by XXXX. How is this the case if my consumer reports should be accurate? 

Please see attached files XXXX. XXXX XXXX  Account # XXXX This company has been reporting inaccurate information from XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and other dates. Please see the attach files for confirmation. 

I demand these accounts be deleted from my consumer reports immediately due to the fact that they violates my consumer rights.

Complaint narrative:
PayPal of Synchrony bank continue to report incorrect information. In XX/XX/year> they accepted a payment agreement with XXXX of XXXX. The amount submitted by XXXX or XXXX was {$81.00}, synchrony bank accepted this with a note that they wanted to chnage the amount. 

As per XXXX of XXXX that is the incorrect way to do it as its accepted in the system. Synchrony bank should have declined the proposal and submitted a new one. XXXX of XXXX said that Synchrony is aware of the correct way to ask for a payment change and the error was on their end as they accepted the proposal. Each month I made payment to XXXX of XXXX and it was made to Synchrony bank for the accepted proposal. Synchrony bank made the mistake. XXXX of XXXX contacted Synchrony bank, they realized what the error was and I was told I didnt need to pay the past due as it was Synchrony Bank error they were going I fix in their system. Synchrony did fix my credit report that month but didnt update their system. 

I have the correspondence between synchrony including proof they accepted the {$81.00} proposal, adding a note of different payment is not the correct way to do it, they had to decline the proposal. If this is not fixed on my credit report I will be contacting a consumer credit lawyer.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I reviewed my credit report and noticed that the above account XXXX XXXX  was on my credit report. I called XXXX XXXX this morning and talked to XXXX in the Fraud Department . I explained to her that I did not open any account with them, and I don't know who they are. One of the things she said that I would have to reach out to the credit bureaus and then get to/them. I called Equifax and had to go through their answer questions pertaining to my credit report in order to speak to someone and that didn't work out. To look at your credit report and see that someone open a credit card account in the amount of {$10000.00} in your name, and XXXX XXXX reports it and Equifax signs off on it by reporting as well, who can you trust? 

It's very frustrating when you explain to company/companies pertaining to a matter like this that you did not open this account with them, and they give the third degree and run around. Some of these companies and the credit bureaus are quick to report late and missed payments, but when you try to clear your name, it takes weeks, months and possibly years to clear name and to recover from it as well. For resolution, I want this account deleted from my Equifax credit report. And I'm seeking {$1000.00} per violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) from both XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  for reporting fraudulent and false information onto my Equifax credit report. And Equifax for not conducting a proper and thoro investigation of a consumer 's personal information before reporting it onto their credit report.
