Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX 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 in those account 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. 


XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
After mailing Equifax a dispute letter a few months back I asked them to verify the information that I listed and believed was reporting to my consumer report without the proper verification process. I asked them to provide to me any documents that may verify the validity of the information which includes any signed agreements, contracts, or receipts. In pursuance of 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ( 5 ), Equifax must remove any information that's inaccurate or unverifiable in which them not providing the proper documentation but continue to report this information is a violation. I understand that it is their duty to be in compliance with the laws that they agreed to abide by. How can you report any account without the proper documentation but respond " verified ''? The creditors that's reporting this information never had the consent to call me numerous times about a debt that they never sent me any proof of documentations to me. I have no knowledge of who they or how they obtained my personal information without my consent. I have a right of privacy in which I believe was violated. Also they are reporting multiple personal information inaccuracies which may confuse anyone or institution that I may have dealings with in the future. They are reporting multiple addresses that I currently don't live at. My credit is being negatively impacted by the negative information that's being reported but without proper validation. Violations I believe that was committed by Equifax and the creditors : 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports, 15 U.S. Code 1681 - Congressional findings and statement of purpose, 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures, 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information, 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy, 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communication in connection with debt collection

Complaint narrative:
I requested my annual credit report recently and found on my report a collections from XXXX XXXX for the amount of {$280.00}. I immediately contacted them as I have not had any service with them since XXXX. I asked for confirmation of any agreement or proof of debt. The first representative said I didn't have any balance pending and wasn't sure what was going on. I provided my personal information including my social security, my address and no information was found I was transferred to another representative and she also didn't understand what was going on. She directed me contact the collection agency. I called Bull city Financial and they wanted me to provide my personal information before they could give me any detail. Although I didn't provide that information they wanted me to go ahead and just pay the amount due. I asked for proof of debt and they were going around in circles requesting again my personal information like my social security. 
I again contacted XXXX XXXX and I received similar responses, they don't know where its coming from but also wont agree to remove from my credit. I'm exhausted and overwhelmed that such companies have the legal authorization to add things to my credit without any validation of debt.
