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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 XXXX and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: LEXISNEXIS

Complaint narrative:
My Security Freeze PIN is XXXX. 
I have submitted online requests together with my Security Freeze PIN XXXX to permanently remove security freeze from my Lexis Nexis Risk Solutions file and from my XXXX file on the following separate dates : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I have received a Notice of Non-Renewal from XXXX XXXX, advising me as follows : We received notice of a security freeze or identity theft alert when seeking a required consumer report associated with you or others on your policy and are unable to renew this policy unless resolved. Contact LexisNexis Risk Solutions , Inc. at XXXX if you wish to address these items. Also, on XX/XX/XXXX in the evening, I have received replies from LexisNexis Risk Solutions and from XXXX to my earlier CFPB complaints, advising me that said organizations were not able to process my request for permanent security freeze removal because my PIN was not provided. The above issue clearly demonstrates that, despite my valid online requests to LexisNexis Risk Solutions on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, all of which included my Security Freeze PIN, the Security Freeze still hasnt been permanently removed from my LexisNexis Risk Solutions file as of XX/XX/XXXX in the evening, and hence, LexisNexis Risk Solutions online form for that purpose is indeed ineffective and doesnt at all do its job. Once again, my Security Freeze PIN is XXXX.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Bank of America XXXX charged off a credit account using my Social Security number ending in XXXX and reported the account as derogatory on my credit report. I was never properly notified of this charge-off, nor was I provided with a Form XXXX ( Cancellation of Debt ) as required by IRS regulations if the XXXX was indeed forgiven and submitted as taxable income. 

This raises XXXX major concerns : XXXX. Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) The charged-off account continues to be reported to the credit bureaus as an unpaid debt. If Bank of America wrote this off and submitted it to the IRS, continuing to report it as an active, delinquent account is inaccurate and misleading. 
XXXX. Potential tax fraud If the debt was canceled and reported to the IRS without issuing me a XXXX, this could affect my tax filings and constitutes a potential violation of federal tax law.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
TransUnion is currently reporting a late payment on the following account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$8700.00}. This derogatory remark is inaccurate and unverified. I have disputed this previously and TransUnion has failed to provide proof of a late payment, including full payment records or documentation with my acknowledgment. Under 15 USC 1681i, TransUnion is required to investigate and verify the legitimacy of any reported late payment when challenged. They have provided no tangible records to prove this derogatory mark is valid. This violates the requirement of maximum possible accuracy under 15 USC 1681e ( b ) and subjects TransUnion to liability under 15 USC 1681n.

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Against Equifax Inaccurate Credit Reporting and Failure to Remove Obsolete Late Payment To Whom It May Concern, I am filing this formal complaint against Equifax for failure to maintain accurate and up-to-date information on my credit report, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Upon reviewing my recent credit report from Equifax, I discovered multiple inaccuracies that are having a detrimental effect on my credit score : Four late payments have been reported on one of my accounts dated XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. I have verified through my records that these payments were made on time. I have attached supporting documentation to confirm my claim. 

Additionally, there is a 90-day late payment from XXXX that was previously disputed and marked for deletion. Despite this, the derogatory item remains on my credit file as of today. This is a violation of Equifaxs obligation to correct or remove outdated and inaccurate items within a reasonable time frame. 

These reporting errors are significantly and unfairly lowering my credit score, affecting my ability to secure financial products. I have made several attempts to resolve these issues directly with Equifax, to no avail. 

I am now requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau intervene and ensure that : Equifax fully investigates and removes the inaccurate late payment entries for the dates listed above ; The outdated XXXX 90-day late payment is permanently deleted from my credit report ; I receive written confirmation from Equifax once these actions have been completed. 

Thank you for your time and assistance in helping to resolve this matter. I appreciate your prompt attention. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
