Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date : XX/XX/year> Request for Removal of Inaccurate Collection Account from Credit Report I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of an inaccurate collection account from my credit report. The collection account in question pertains to XXXX XXXX, which was inaccurately reported as a debt of {$42000.00}. 

XXXX years ago, I applied for a consolidation loan with XXXX XXXX, and subsequently agreed to refinance my loan with another company that claimed to be affiliated with XXXX XXXX. Despite making monthly payments between the XXXX XXXX XXXX of each month as agreed, it has come to my attention that XXXX XXXX never received any of these payments. Upon discovering this discrepancy during a credit report review in XX/XX/year>, I promptly contacted XXXX XXXX to address the issue. 

After uncovering that the company I had been paying had not remitted any payments to XXXX XXXX, I immediately terminated my agreement with them and resumed direct payments to XXXX XXXX. I have consistently paid the monthly installment of {$550.00} to XXXX XXXX since then. 

The collection account resulting from this misunderstanding is unjustified and damaging to my credit report. I urge you to investigate this matter further and expeditiously remove the inaccurate collection entry attributed to XXXX XXXX. This collection account is a product of misrepresentation and fraud, and its presence on my credit report is misleading and harmful to my financial standing. 

I kindly request that you conduct a thorough review of this situation and take the necessary steps to rectify this error by promptly removing the inaccurate collection account from my credit report. Attached is the now terminated agreement with the financial institution who was to assume responsibility over the debt previously that cause this discrepancy. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the removal of this erroneous collection account from my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not.

The only reason I applied was because of the introductory offer.
