Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
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. 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.

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : [ XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency.

FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period. 
Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

1681i.

State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was informed by XXXX XXXX XXXX department customer service representative XXXX that the only way to receive updates or decisions regarding my appeal for my locked account is through the mobile app, by mail, or by visiting a branch. I was never informed of this requirement prior to or during the appeal process. My mobile app access was XXXX due to the account lock, and I was not advised that phone updates would not be available. This lack of disclosure prevented me from accessing timely notice of my appeal status. 

Additionally, when I asked about making my car loan payment, XXXX XXXX XXXX staff informed me that I could not pay by debit card and provided no written explanation for this restriction. I was not given any written policy or notice explaining why debit payment was not permitted, despite my account being restricted through no fault of my own. 

Finally, when XXXX XXXX previously justified taking my XXXX benefits, they relied on their internal Important Disclosures form. That disclosure language references XXXX  XXXX  benefits only in limited overdraft situations and does not authorize the XXXX or setoff of XXXX  XXXX benefits. Despite this, XXXX XXXX applied my XXXX  XXXX funds to a fraud claim I did not file or authorize, relying on internal disclosures rather than accessible notice or clear authority. Which I reviewed today.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccurate and misleading credit reporting by XXXX regarding a charged-off credit card account. The account is being reported with multiple internal inconsistencies, including being listed as both open and charged-off, reporting ongoing monthly derogatory payment history after charge-off despite no payment being due, and calculating utilization on a charged-off account. 

XXXX is also reporting contradictory data such as worst payment status : no info while simultaneously reporting charge-off and derogatory history. This indicates the information is neither accurate nor complete, and that no reasonable investigation was conducted. 

I have not received documentation supporting these reporting practices, nor an explanation for continued post-charge-off delinquency reporting. This reporting is materially misleading and damaging.

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a dispute to you regarding multiple inaccuracies on my credit report, including incorrect personal information ( name, addresses ) and multiple inaccurate account entries. Despite providing supporting documents, such as my driver 's license, proof of address, and social security card, you have failed to correct these errors. These inaccuracies impact my credit standing and violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires credit bureaus to ensure maximum possible accuracy. Additionally, some of these accounts may involve debts that should have been reported differently under 1099-C tax laws. I formally requested verification and removal of these items, but you have not taken appropriate action.
