Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXXXXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Incorrect Reporting Date : The payment reported as late for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX was made within the grace period and should not have been reported as 60 days late. 
Clerical Error : There appears to have been a clerical error where the payment was misapplied or not recorded accurately by XXXXXXXX XXXX. 

I provided substantial evidence in my dispute, including bank statements and payment confirmations showing that the payments were made on time and within the contractual grace period. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I placed an order for a XXXX XXXX XXXX and a XXXX XXXX, and it arrived on XX/XX/year>. Immediately upon opening the package I saw that I was shipped knock off merchandise, so I emailed the merchant and let them know that what I received was not what I ordered. They played clueless and asked me for pictures so I obliged and sent them photos of the shirt and the sweater to which I received a reply explaining that I could not get a refund because all their clothes are custom-made, I explained that it is illegal to knock off name brand clothes like XXXX and make custom-made clothing in their image. Which to me looked nothing like what was being advertised online and even when I was checking out, they showed photos of what I was supposed to be buying and I did not receive any cooperation from the merchant. They stop responding to me. They refused to give me a refund for the fraudulent merchandise that they sent me, I did report them to XXXX. I have reported them to the FTC as well, then I tried to do a charge back with the credit card company that I made the purchase with which was Goldman and Sachs an Apple Card. I submitted the receipt, which was the order that I was emailed that showed photos of what I thought I was buying. I submitted photos of what I received. I also submitted the emails back-and-forth between myself and the merchant and my dispute was denied. The amount that was being disputed was for {$100.00}. My complaint is for Goldman and Sachs Apple Card because they had ample proof that I was in fact scammed and they still ruled in favor of the fraudulent merchant so I am reporting them for not protecting me with this purchase.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my XXXX score. 

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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.
