Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Complaint narrative:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Complaint narrative:
Im writing to file a formal complaint against Experian a consumer reporting agencyfor their failure to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and rectify a violation regarding the reinsertion of previously delited material into my credit report. I sent a letter to Experian notifying them of the reinsertion of XXXX XXXX XXXX into my credit report without proper certification of accuracy and notification to me, as mandated by FCRA Section 611 ( B ). Despite waiting for 35 days after sending the letter, XXXX has failed to remove the reinserted account from my credit report, continuing to violate FCRA regulations.| Experian actions have caused significant inconvenience and potential harm to my credit profile, impacting my ability to access fair credit terms and financial opportunities. Despite my efforts to resolve this matter directly with Experian they have neglected to take appropriate action, demonstrating a lack of accountability and compliance with federal consumer protection laws.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Also, I was never disclosed of ALL three of my Opt-Out disclosures which states a financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party under 15 U.S. Code 6802 unless all three disclosures were satisfied but they were not.

Complaint narrative:
Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX I was just looking at my credit report and found some errors relating to my payment history on some accounts. I have outlined the following incorrect late payments. Please fix these errors immediately and remove the late payments. If you are unable to do so, then remove the entire account since it is being reported inaccurately. 

Account Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Reason : Incorrect late payment Instruction : The payment history is incorrect. 

Late payments from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX were all on time. Clearly you have some faulty systems, because there should be NO late payments showing here. As in, ZERO late payments. So why are you reporting it incorrectly? Inaccurate late payments like this are not only embarrassing, but they are preventing me from obtaining credit that I'm trying to apply for. I've already been in talks with some experts who have informed me that there are laws to ensure that credit bureaus only report accurate credit information. 

It is evident that the inclusion of this inaccurate information is a mistake on either your part or the reporting creditor 's part or both. I take this very seriously and I'm not going to stop contacting you until you remove this wrong information. Due to the damaging effects of such negative inaccurate information I must insist that this is done swiftly. If it isn't done fast, I'm going to have to research what legal options are available to me against both you and the creditor. 

Regards,

The info in my credit reports is wrong, making it hard for me to get new credit. When I apply for credit, the errors confuse lenders and paint the wrong picture of my creditworthiness. 

These mistakes seriously harm my financial reputation. So, I formally ask for them to be corrected and removed from my reports. It's crucial that my credit file shows my real financial status for fair assessments by lenders.

I have been in contact with Marcus Goldman Sachs since XX/XX/2024 - today XX/XX/2024 regarding getting my account unlocked ( which they just locked out of the blue one day for unknown reasons ). I have called at least four times each month and they keep telling me they will send me an Affidavit of Identity for me to fill out, get notarized and send back to remedy the problem, yet as of this date still haven't sent it. They also keep saying they will call me back to help me with this issue and haven't done that either. I am unable to access my money in order to pay my bills and it has put me in a very bad position.
