Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the continued reporting of an account by XXXX that contains multiple, persistent inaccuracies across both Equifax and Experian. These discrepancies have negatively impacted my credit profile and violate my rights under the * * Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681i XXXX XXXX 

Despite previous attempts to resolve this issue directly with XXXX, the following inconsistencies remain : - The account is reported as opened in XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>XXXX XXXX XXXX yet documentation from XXXX confirms the loan was XXXX XXXX approved in XX/XX/year>XXXX XXXX XXXX 
- This raises a fundamental question : how can an account be reported before it was approved or originated? 
- Additional inconsistencies exist between the data reported to Equifax and Experian, including variations in payment history and account status. 

Due to the * * ongoing and uncorrected inconsistencies * *, I am formally requesting that this account be * * removed entirely * * from my credit report. Under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ), if information can not be verified or consistently maintained, it must be deleted. 

Please consider this letter a formal dispute. I have enclosed supporting documentation, including the original loan approval letter, to assist in your investigation. I expect a response within the XXXX period required by law. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

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 TILA XXXX Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
