Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed. 


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.

EQUIFAX 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 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

State: IN

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 US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX Bank account [ XXXX ]. 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.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have been trying to lift/and or remove this security freeze for over a year now. Teletrack will not allow me to do so without a pin number, I asked them to provide me with a new pin number, since the original pin number they mailed to me was misplaced in the mail. They have ask me to mail in a copy of my ID, a proof of address/utility bill along with a completed form and cover letter stating I am requesting a new pin number. I sent in several requests with sufficient proof of my identity in writing and have spoken to several different people at Tele track over the last year. I have yet to receive a new pin number, and my consumer report remains frozen. I have been denied checking accounts and student loans, and consumer loans because banks are unable to get full access to my consumer reporting. This has caused me great anger and frustration. I am amazed by the lack of care and diligents regarding my consumer report, and the blatant mismanagement of my personal info and consumer reporting. This is against the law to not allow me to have access to my OWN personal information. Please fix the issue asap, and also remove the consumer freeze.
