Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts 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 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: NCB Management Services Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Dear NCB, I am writing to address a blatant violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), and the Missouri Credit Reporting Act.

It has unequivocally come to my attention that NCB has already engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, explicitly mandates that the consent of the consumer is a non-negotiable requirement for such reporting activities under Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ).

In addition to federal law, Missouri state law provides specific protections for consumers regarding credit reporting. These laws emphasize the necessity of consumer consent for credit reporting and establish clear guidelines for the fair reporting of consumer credit information.

I assert with unwavering certainty that I have not provided consent for NCB to report any information to my credit report. This undeniable lack of explicit permission constitutes a blatant violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and an unequivocal disregard for federal and state laws.

I demand, with the utmost certainty, that NCB immediately ceases any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA and the Missouri Credit Reporting Act. Failure to comply within the stipulated 30-day timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including identity fraud laws.

I emphasize that obtaining consent is not a discretionary choice but a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRA and Missouri state law. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and state regulations, protecting consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting.

I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that NCB will promptly rectify these egregious violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws.

Done in good faith.

I contacted the below creditors and they have NO proof I initiated such inquiries, nor written authorization and have failed to provide any permissible purpose. Since, they do not have my authorization, written nor verbal I ask that you DELETE these authorized inquiries from my credit report immediately as there is no evidence of any authorization, nor any permissible purpose.
