Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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!

Complaint narrative:
My repeated attempts to resolve the fraudulent, inaccurate, and misleading information appearing on my consumer report have been unsuccessful, leaving these damaging entries unresolved. These unauthorized items have severely impacted my financial well-being and personal life, creating ongoing stress and limiting my access to credit and other financial opportunities. As a victim of identity theft, I want to emphasize that I never authorized or consented to any association of this fraudulent information with my personal profile, and these entries do not reflect my actual financial history or behavior.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up complaint regarding Equifax 's continued reporting of inaccurate, unverifiable, and misleading information on my credit file in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ). Despite my previous disputes, the same problem remains unresolved. Equifax has repeatedly failed to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation or provide proper validation as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ).

Under FACTA Title I, Section 151, consumer reporting agencies are obligated to ensure that all reported data is accurate, complete, and properly verified. Moreover, 15 U.S.C. 6801 of the GLBA imposes a duty to safeguard the accuracy and confidentiality of consumer information, which includes preventing the dissemination of false or misleading data.

Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), codified at 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq., financial disclosures must be clear, complete, and accurate. The continued failure to correct and validate this disputed information constitutes a violation of my consumer rights and subjects Equifax to potential regulatory and civil liability.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role in gathering and assessing consumer credit information. However, they must exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy. The banking system relies on accurate and fair credit reporting, and when these reporting methods are unfair, it undermines public trust, which is vital for the system 's stability. I never gave my explicit, written consent for these agencies to report my information, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ). This violation has led to an alleged case of identity theft, breaching 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. The accounts in question are not related to any transactions made by me.

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act was created to ensure that laws and procedures are in place to protect consumers from abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices by debt collectors. In this case, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692f, which prohibits debt collectors from using unfair or unconscionable means to collect a debt. Specifically, they can not collect any amounts that arent explicitly authorized by the agreement or allowed by law. Additionally, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e, which prohibits the use of false, deceptive, or misleading representations in debt collection efforts. This includes using deceptive methods to collect a debt or gather consumer information. Moreover, they are forbidden from contacting consumers at inconvenient times or places, or engaging in behavior that harasses or abuses consumers.

In this case, the company has harassed me by claiming I owe a debt that I do not recognize as my responsibility. They have also contacted me at inconvenient times and places, in violation of the law.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
This is a formal dispute regarding multiple accounts on my credit report that contain significant inaccuracies. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and 1681i, you are required to report information with the maximum possible accuracy and to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information. 
Upon reviewing my credit files from XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion, I have identified numerous discrepancies across virtually all accounts reported between, XXXX, XXXX  and Transunion. ( All of the accounts are showing discrepancies in the dates of last activity. ) Some have incorrect balances, inconsistent payment histories, and contradictory account statuses. The same account can not legally report differently across the national consumer reporting agencies. This renders the information unreliable, incomplete, and in violation of the FCRA. 
Please be advised that simply transmitting my dispute electronically through the e-OSCAR system and accepting a superficial verified response from a furnisher does not satisfy your independent legal obligations under the FCRA. Courts have consistently held that consumer reporting agencies must go beyond parroting information from furnishers and must ensure the accuracy of the data they report. ( You are instructed to apply the Compliance Condition CodeCCC-8 CLAIMS INACCURATE INFORMATION ) Because these accounts are demonstrably inaccurate and unverifiable, I hereby demand their permanent deletion from my credit report under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ). If you are unable to provide competent evidence substantiating the accuracy of the disputed accounts, you are legally obligated to delete them. 
If you claim to have verified these items, I require : 1. A detailed description of your reinvestigation procedures ; The method used to verify the disputed accounts ; The name, address, and telephone number of each furnisher contacted ; and Copies of any documentation you relied upon to verify the information. 
Failure to comply with your statutory obligations and reliance on e-OSCAR automated parroting will constitute willful noncompliance under FCRA 1681n and 1681o, which entitles me to pursue legal remedies, including damages, attorneys fees, and costs. You have 30 days to complete your investigation or delete.
