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

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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! Update the late payments from my consumer reports.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I hope everything is going well for you. This letter is being sent in response to the accounts that are listed below. That is reflected on my credit record, and it is having a significant impact on me. The fact that these accounts are showing up on my credit report is due to the fact that I am a victim of identity theft and that my information was hacked. The fact that these accounts are not mine and that I should not be responsible or accountable for something that was opened up without my knowledge is the primary reason why they are having such a significant impact on who I am. I have no doubt that you both would not be willing to pay for something that you are not familiar with, have not done any business with, and have not received any service from.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint due to multiple unauthorized hard inquiries that have been made on my credit report without my knowledge, consent, or permissible purpose, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Under FCRA Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), a hard inquiry may only be made if there is a legitimate permissible purpose, such as a credit application that I explicitly authorized. I have not applied for credit or authorized any of the following companies to access my credit report : These inquiries were not initiated or approved by me in any capacity. I have contacted the credit reporting agency ( [ Experian/Equifax/TransUnion ] ) to dispute these inquiries and demand their removal. However, no satisfactory resolution has been provided.

The continued reporting of these inquiries without proof of authorization is a violation of my rights as a consumer under the FCRA and potentially opens these companies and the credit bureaus to civil liability. Hard inquiries can lower my credit score and affect my ability to obtain credit therefore, this is not a trivial issue.
