Complaint narrative:
My accounts 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 to be removed/updated. 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. 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!

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding unauthorized and inaccurate information reported on my credit reports. I am a victim of identity theft and severe misreporting, resulting in fraudulent accounts, incorrect addresses, and unauthorized hard inquiries appearing across all three major credit bureaus. I did not authorize any of these entries, and they are causing substantial harm to my credit standing and personal well-being. Below are the specific items I am disputing : Account : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX High Balance : {$1600.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Status : Chargeoff Issue : I did not open this account and was unaware of its existence until I reviewed my credit report. I have never held or used any credit card under XXXX XXXX with this account number. This account was opened and used fraudulently by an unknown party without my knowledge or consent. 
Law : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, a consumer has the right to block the reporting of any information that is a result of identity theft. Also, under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), the credit bureaus are required to remove fraudulent accounts from my report upon proper identification and dispute. 
Story : I am a victim of identity theft. I never applied for any credit with XXXX XXXX  in XXXX, nor did I authorize anyone to do so on my behalf. I was not made aware of this fraudulent activity until I saw the charge-off on my credit report. I have faced severe consequences including denials for new credit, emotional stress, and financial hardship. This fraudulent charge-off is damaging my financial credibility and should be removed immediately from all three credit bureaus. I have never had any interaction or correspondence with XXXX, nor did I ever receive statements, cards, or bills. I respectfully demand this fraudulent item be permanently removed from my credit profile. 

Conclusion : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and related consumer protection laws, I am requesting the immediate investigation and permanent deletion of all inaccurate, fraudulent, and unauthorized items listed above. These items are false, damaging, and were added to my credit report without lawful purpose or consent. I respectfully request that the CFPB take urgent action to hold the reporting agencies and furnishers accountable for these violations. I am attaching this complaint along with supporting documents and plan to report the matter to the FTC and local authorities.

Complaint narrative:
Issue : Incorrect information on my credit report Company : XXXX XXXX ( Collection Agency ) Servicing for : XXXX at XXXX Apartments Account Number : XXXX Filed Against : XXXX XXXX and the relevant credit bureau ( s ) : TransUnion, Equifax Complaint Summary : I am filing this complaint because a collection account from XXXX XXXX, relating to an alleged debt from XXXX at XXXX XXXX, is being inaccurately reported on my credit report. The account appears on TransUnion and Equifax as a collection with a balance of {$7200.00}, with no supporting documentation, no payment history, and no date of last activity. 

I formally disputed this item through the credit bureaus under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 611 ). The account is currently listed as Consumer Disputes Reinvestigation in Progress, yet I have not received any verification of the debt from the collector or the credit bureaus.

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA 809 ), I requested validation of this debt, including : A signed lease agreement or contract An itemized statement showing how the {$7200.00} was calculated Proof that XXXX XXXX is authorized to collect this debt As of today, I have received no such documents. The amount appears to be inflated, and there is no record of any attempt to notify me before reporting to the credit bureaus, which may also violate FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) regarding accurate furnishing of information. 

This is causing substantial harm to my credit profile and ability to secure housing or credit. 

Desired Resolution : Immediately delete the unverified and inaccurate collection from my credit reports ( TransUnion and Equifax ) Provide full validation documentation for this alleged debt ( signed lease, breakdown of charges, etc. ) Ensure XXXX XXXX and the credit bureaus comply with the FCRA and FDCPA

Company: Carter-Young, Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I informed XXXX XXXX at XXXX ( managed by XXXX ) by phone that I would not be moving into the apartment I had applied for. Despite notifying them of my cancellation before the lease term began and never receiving the keys, moving in, or occupying the unit, they continued to charge me as if I had taken possession. 

I later discovered that this debt was reported to the credit bureaus and sent to a third-party collection agency ( Carter Young ) . I submitted a financial move-out dispute form to XXXX explaining that I never moved in, but they denied my dispute. Their staff stated that because the account was already in collections, they could not make any adjustments. 

I am disputing this debt because I never occupied the apartment, and I communicated my cancellation well before the lease term started. I am requesting that this collection be removed from my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Subject : Identity Theft Dispute Request for Deletion of Fraudulent Account ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute a fraudulent account reported on my Equifax credit report XXXX XXXX XXXX, Account XXXX XXXXXXXX as a result of identity theft. I have never opened, authorized, or had any affiliation with this account, and it is damaging my credit profile unjustly.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, I am exercising my right to request the blocking and removal of this account due to identity theft. Additionally, the Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act ( 18 U.S. Code 1028 ) classifies such unauthorized use of personally identifiable information as a federal offense. 
Enclosed with this letter, you will find the following documentation to support my claim : A copy of a government-issued ID A copy of a recent utility bill A completed FTC Identity Theft Report Please conduct a prompt investigation and permanently delete the XXXX XXXX XXXX account from my credit file. As mandated under FCRA 1681i, you must complete this investigation within 30 calendar days and notify me of the results. If you determine the account was, in fact, a result of identity theft, it must be blocked from my report under FCRA 1681c-2 ( a ).

Furthermore, please ensure that no further reporting of this account is made by Equifax or any third-party data furnishers. Should Equifax fail to comply, I reserve the right to file complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and consider further legal action. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I expect a written response confirming the removal of the fraudulent account.
