Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. 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. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
My account with Equifax 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.

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 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

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.
