Complaint narrative:
I submitted a dispute to you regarding multiple inaccuracies on my credit report, including incorrect personal information ( name, addresses ) and multiple inaccurate account entries. Despite providing supporting documents, such as my driver 's license, proof of address, and social security card, you have failed to correct these errors. These inaccuracies impact my credit standing and violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires credit bureaus to ensure maximum possible accuracy. Additionally, some of these accounts may involve debts that should have been reported differently under 1099-C tax laws. I formally requested verification and removal of these items, but you have not taken appropriate action.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts 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 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!

Upon reviewing my credit report in preparation for purchasing a home, I was surprised to find this collection account. In XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX major credit reporting agencies enacted new policies regarding medical debt reporting. Under these changes, no medical collection under {$500.00} may be reported, and for debts exceeding this threshold, a minimum of XXXX year must pass from the time of delinquency before they are eligible to appear on a consumer credit report. Furthermore, as of XX/XX/XXXX, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finalized changes to Regulation V.

Complaint narrative:
Experian and Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit R Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian and Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian and Equifax has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian and Equifax inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
