Consumer complaint received 2024-06-24 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  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 me 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 dateXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  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

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  XXXX. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
For the last 6 months i have been trying to remove negative items from my credit report so that i can buy a house for my family.. i have constantly been givin the run around or stall letters regarding to my requests or i have gotten communication saying that the accounts are verified and accurate but when i look at my accounts they are still reporting inaccurate ( violation of 1681e ( b ) ( b ) ) and when asked about the method of verification under 1692g i do not get any communication i have attached all of my letters sent over the past 6 months with the accounts as well - XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Violation of section 807 15 usc 1692e false or misleading representations. The account is fraudulent and inaccurate. There is no payment history reported. You have a responsibility to report complete and accurate information. If this you can not report a complete payment history then you are reporting inaccurate information. There is also no date of last payment being reported therefore this is incomplete reporting on your end. 

- XXXX XXXX Account Number : I was never been 30 days late on this account and always paid on time this is reporting inaccurately. Update the payment status to paid as agreed. Remove this account for inaccurate reporting because the date of last payment is mising. Since you have of not reported the date of last payment is messes up two things. 

First it shows does not help indicate when this account was actually charged off and secondly it manipulates the statue of limitations as I can not tell when this account is supposed to fall off. This means that you were never given the true date of first delinquency and this is causing me stress being reported.
