Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My account with 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 in 60 days 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 date.

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

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I pulled a copy of my consumer report and notified your agency on XX/XX/year> about some items I disputed. XXXX was not taken into this matter as it has yet to be resolved in a manner that is FAIR and EQUITABLE to me, the consumer, per the Fair Credit Reporting Act regulations. I sent off my notice to your agency which included a Federal Trade Commision ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report as well as I filed a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). I delineated what violations your agency perpetrated under the FCRA, while notifying your agency that these items were reported without my explicit, written agreement. This results in identity theft, constituting a breach of the civil liability provisions of the FCRA, as previously communicated in the attached notice for your records. Your agency has clearly refused to follow the law and honor my previous request.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I made a purchase from XXXX 's website on XX/XX/2024. The agreement was for a 12 month equal payment plan. Td bank is attempting to charge me more per month than the contract agreement. I contacted XXXX and they have confirmed that I'm correct. She also emailed the contract showing that I was correct.The representative transferred me to TD Bank who is the party acting illegally. I explained the situation and they acted as if I was lying and after demanding to speak with a manager, she connected me to disputes. They also acted as if I was lying before filling a dispute. After 10 days or so I received a letter from TD Bank stating I'd have to pay what they say regardless of the contract. I tried to contact them on multiple occasions and they will not answer their phone.On one occasion, I've spent 3 hours waiting to speak with someone and over 2 on multiple occasions to no avail. Please stop this company from illegal activities so that no other consumers credit can be harmed.

Complaint narrative:
Midland Credit Management has unlawfully and illegally reporting derogatory information on my credit report without proper authorization for {$690.00}. I have never authorized or signed any legal contracts or applications with debt agency, nor have I provided them with any other form of identification that would permit them to legally report this information. Midland Credit Management has failed to provide a copy of any wet signed applications, which raises concerns about the legitimacy of their actions. This is not a credit transaction with this third-party debt agency and I will also be filing other federal and state complaints against Midland Credit Management XXXX I need proof of my identity also. I have not given them the authority to access or report any information related to me pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires a permissible purpose for such actions. Their failure to comply with these legal requirements has caused harm to my credit standing. I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure that the derogatory information is removed from my credit report.
