Complaint narrative:
" I am addressing the issue with regarding the noncompliance. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance. This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs. This underscores the importance of addressing and rectifying this matter promptly and responsibly.

Complaint narrative:
Account XXXX  XXXX Midland Funding Formal Complaint of Improper Handling of Notarized Documents, Consumer Rights Violations, and Request for Immediate Removal of Tradeline Dear Midland Funding, I am writing to formally address your recent claim that the notarized documentation I submitted regarding the debt in question " does not appear authentic. '' This response is both unfounded and in violation of my consumer rights under federal law. 

A notary public has officially authenticated the documentation, which makes it legally binding. Therefore, your agency has no legal right or authority to question the authenticity of properly notarized documents unless you have substantial legal evidence to prove otherwise. Your arbitrary dismissal of these documents is not only inappropriate but also in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Consumer Rights Violations : Improper Disregard of Notarized Documentation : The 15 U.S.C. 1692e of the FDCPA prohibits collection agencies from using any false or misleading representations in their attempts to collect debts. Dismissing legally authenticated documents without a valid reason constitutes a violation of this provision. 

Failure to Validate Debt : Under 15 U.S.C. 1692g, upon a dispute, a debt collector is required to validate the debt and provide accurate documentation. Rejecting my valid, notarized documents without proper cause fails to meet this standard of validation and is a violation of my rights as a consumer. 

Credit Bureau Responsibilities : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX I must remind you that the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) holds you responsible for reporting accurate information to the credit bureaus. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i, during an investigation into a disputed account, credit bureaus must not report inaccurate or unverifiable information. As such, I am formally requesting that you immediately remove the tradeline related to this account from my credit report while this claim is under investigation, as the account is currently disputed and should not be reported in a way that could harm my credit. 

Failure to comply with these legal obligations would constitute a further violation of my rights, and I reserve the right to take legal action to pursue damages for reporting inaccurate or misleading information on my credit report.

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 rul
e 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY. 

The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system. 

I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions
