Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX, Equifax and XXXX for their violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite my previous communication with them regarding inaccurate credit information, they have failed to take appropriate action to rectify the situation. 

I received a copy of my credit report which revealed the following errors : XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX Account XXXX : XXXX XXXX. XXXX Account Number : XXXX I carefully reviewed the FCRA, specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681, Congressional Findings and Statement of Purpose ( a ), which emphasizes the importance of accuracy and fairness in credit reporting. Accordingly, I requested the removal of the aforementioned items from my credit report, as they are not associated with me. Furthermore, I provided clear evidence supporting the inaccuracy of these entries. 

Despite my explicit request and the legal obligations outlined in the FCRA, XXXX, Equifax and XXXX has failed to conduct a proper investigation into these disputed items. They have neglected to recheck the accuracy of the entries with the respective creditors who reported them. As a result, these erroneous accounts remain on my credit report, damaging my creditworthiness and violating my consumer rights. 

According to 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ), XXXX, Equifax and XXXX is required to complete a reinvestigation within 30 days of receiving my dispute letter. However, they have disregarded this legal time frame and have not provided me with an updated copy of my credit report, as mandated by the FCRA. Furthermore, they have failed to comply with the requirement to send notices of corrections to anyone who received my credit report within the past six months. 

I kindly request your intervention in this matter to ensure that XXXX, Equifax and XXXX fulfills their obligations under the FCRA. I believe their actions constitute a violation of my consumer rights, and I seek appropriate remedial measures to rectify this situation. I request that a thorough investigation be conducted and appropriate action taken against XXXX, Equifax and XXXX for their noncompliance with the FCRA. 

Furthermore, I request that you provide guidance on how I can further protect my consumer rights and seek redress for the harm caused by XXXX, Equifax and XXXX 's actions. I believe that their negligence and failure to comply with the FCRA warrant severe consequences, as this affects not only my financial well-being but also my overall trust in the credit reporting system. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution. Thank you for your assistance in protecting consumer rights and ensuring fair and accurate credit reporting practices.

Complaint narrative:
My account with 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 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 XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX to be removed.

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. 


XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 XXXX and It was never provided.

I am writing once more to express my perplexity regarding your credit bureau 's handling of the investigation into the fraudulent accounts on my credit report. As you are aware, I have submitted the required FTC report to the Federal Trade Commission regarding these fraudulent accounts, and following this submission, XXXX and XXXX have removed these accounts from their records.I have also directly contacted the companies associated with these accounts, and they have confirmed the removal of the accounts. Therefore, I am puzzled as to why these accounts are still being reported by your bureau. It is imperative to recognize that as a credit bureau, you are legally mandated to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of your records. Failing to remove these fraudulent accounts not only violates this obligation but also exposes me to further harm.
