I just recieved an update on my XXXX XXXX  dispute about an icorrect reporting on my payment history. XX/XX/XXXX was 30 days late which was not correct i showed bank statements i was on time. XX/XX/XXXX also showed 30 days late which was also incorrect. i showed bank statements. 

I just recieved this updated report from equifax. They corrected XX/XX/XXXX payment as paid on time. But now they made XXXX XXXX 60 days late. How is that possible? this is absurd. This deserves a court case review by a judge. They also changed XX/XX/XXXX from 30 days late to 60 days late. How is this possibke. This is foul reporting and incorrect. This is deliberately breaking the law. I will reprt this to my attorney. I have patiently provided documents to prove my case and i get disrespected by this garbage reprting to hinder my life and my families. 

I am reproviding bank statement showing XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  payment was made on time. it was withdrawn XX/XX/XXXX. I am showing my latest equifax reporting the update being incorrect for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/year> Complaint Overview : I am submitting this complaint due to inaccurate and misleading information being reported on my credit report by XXXX XXXX Equifax XXXX XXXX XXXX Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with the credit bureau, the inaccuracies remain, and I am seeking the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus assistance in investigating and correcting these errors. 
Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX Key Issues : Late Payments Misreported as Income : Several late payments on my open accounts have been incorrectly reported as income on my credit report. According to 26 U.S.C. 61 ( a ), income refers to gains or profits such as wages, dividends, or other sources. Late payments are not taxable income, and therefore reporting them as such is inaccurate.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), creditors and credit bureaus are required to report information accurately. The classification of late payments as income violates federal law. 
Closed Accounts Incorrectly Reported as Charged-Off : Certain closed accounts are being inaccurately reported as charged-off, despite having been resolved. These accounts should be updated to reflect a status of paid as agreed.

Under 28 U.S.C. 3201 ( e ) and 31 C.F.R. 285.12, debts classified as Certificates of Indebtedness should not continue to be reported negatively once resolved. The current reporting is not in compliance with these statutes. 
Specific Actions Requested : Immediate removal of late payments that are incorrectly classified as income from my credit report, while keeping the open accounts active and positive.

Update of closed accounts currently reported as charged-off to reflect " paid as agreed '' with a positive status, as required by federal law. 
Attempts to Resolve the Issue : I have previously contacted XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax to dispute these items and requested verification of the information as per the Fair Credit Reporting Act. However, the credit bureau has failed to correct these inaccuracies or provide adequate verification of the information in question. I am now seeking the CFPB 's assistance in holding the credit bureau accountable and ensuring that they follow federal guidelines. 

Relevant Laws Cited in My Dispute : 26 U.S.C. 61 ( a ) Income does not include late payments or delinquent debts.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) Furnishers of credit information must ensure the accuracy of reported data. 
28 U.S.C. 3201 ( e ) Guidelines for debts classified as Certificates of Indebtedness.

31 C.F.R. 285.12 Restrictions on how settled government debts should be reported.
