Complaint narrative:
I am writing to address a matter of non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 609 by the credit bureaus. I submitted a complaint to the credit bureaus regarding inaccuracies in my credit report, as per FCRA guidelines. According to the FCRA, the credit bureaus are legally obligated to respond within 30 days of submission. However, it has now been more than 30 days since my complaint was filed, and I have not received any response from the credit bureaus. As per FCRA rules, this failure to respond within the stipulated timeframe warrants the removal of the disputed negative items from my credit report. I kindly request that the credit bureaus address this issue promptly and take the necessary steps to rectify my credit report in accordance with FCRAregulations. Attached you will also find my ID as proofofmyidentity, my Proof of Address, and SSN Card.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am contacting you regarding an account on my credit report that does not belong to me. After thoroughly reviewing my credit file, its clear that this account has been mistakenly associated with my identitythis is a classic case of mixed credit information, and it needs to be addressed immediately. 

Let me be very clear : this account is not mine. I did not open it, I have never used it, and I have no affiliation whatsoever with the person it actually belongs to. Somewhere along the line, my personal information has been confused or combined with someone else 's, and now their account is showing up under my name. Thats not just wrongits completely unacceptable. 

Not only is this hurting my credit profile, but its also a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires that all information reported be accurate and only associated with the correct consumer. This account fails both of those standards.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing several inaccuracies currently appearing on my credit report, specifically unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate or approve. These entries represent a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly 15 U.S. Code 1681i, which requires a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates that information reported must be accurate to the maximum extent possible. In addition, I am disputing a potentially misreported late payment. According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, creditors must allow at least 21 days between the statement date and the payment due date before classifying a payment as late. Based on my records, this standard may not have been met, or the payment was submitted on time and inaccurately reported as delinquent.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of a XXXX collection currently being reported on my credit file. Upon recently reviewing my credit reports, I was shocked to find this account is still listed despite having been fully paid. It was my understanding that upon payment, XXXX would remove the tradeline from my credit report. However, this collection remains, inaccurately reflecting a negative status and negatively impacting my credit profile. As a result, I have been unable to secure credit and it is jeopardizing my ability to obtain approval for a home loan.

I am requesting that XXXX immediately remove the collection from my credit reports.
