Complaint narrative:
This COMPLAINT serves as a formal follow-up to my previous complaint submitted last month regarding inaccurate and damaging information being reported on my credit file. I am requesting your immediate assistance in launching a formal investigation into the reporting of a late payment that I categorically deny. 
I have never been late on the account ( s ) in question. I have always made my payments on time and have maintained a responsible credit history. The inclusion of any late payment ( s ) on my credit report is inaccurate and a clear reporting error, either by your agency or the original creditor. 

This inaccurate information is causing me significant distress and has already resulted in a wrongful denial of credit, which was not only financially damaging but personally embarrassing. As you are no doubt aware, credit bureaus are legally obligated to ensure the accuracy of consumer data under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

ACCOUNT : XXXX  XXXX * * * * {$100.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/year>. 

Under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( a ) : ( XXXX ) The banking system depends on accurate and fair credit reporting. Errors disrupt system efficiency and damage consumer trust. 
( XXXX ) Consumer reporting agencies have a critical duty to properly assemble and evaluate information on consumers. 

Given that the reported late payment is erroneous, I am formally requesting that : A full reinvestigation of this item be conducted in accordance with the FCRA. 
The inaccurate late payment entry be permanently removed from my credit report. 
My credit file be updated to reflect my accurate payment history. 
Please consider this a formal dispute under the FCRA. I respectfully request that you provide written confirmation once this error has been investigatedandremoved.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB Officer, I am submitting this formal complaint against Equifax for reporting inaccurate, unverifiable, and misleading information on my credit report in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite my dispute efforts, Equifax has failed to meet its legal obligations under FCRA Sections XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ( b ), resulting in ongoing damage to my creditworthiness. 

Below are the accounts in question : XXXX  Account # XXXX * * * * * * * * * * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Status : Late Payment * * XXXX  Account # XXXX * * * * * * * * * * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Status : Late Payment * * Both of these student loan accounts have {$0.00} balances and are closed. However, Equifax continues to report derogatory late payment history without providing any valid documentation to support the accuracy of this negative reporting. This practice is deceptive, harmful, and violates FCRA XXXX XXXX ( b ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure maximum possible accuracy of the data they report. 

XXXX  Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Status : Negative Item * * This account is listed with a XXXX balance but is still negatively impacting my credit file. I requested full verification including documentation from the original creditor, which was never provided. If the balance is paid and closed, the negative status should not remain. Continued reporting of this item without proper validation violates FCRA Sections XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) and XXXX. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account # XXXX * * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$3900.00} Status : Collection * * XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$390.00} Status : Collection * * XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX * * * * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$5200.00} Status : Collection * * These collection accounts are being reported without legal validation. I have not received any signed contract, billing history, or original creditor documentation that proves I owe these debts. Equifax has failed to perform a reasonable reinvestigation as required by FCRA XXXX XXXX and has not supplied the source or method of verification under Section XXXX ( a ). 

Equifaxs continued reporting of these unverifiable and misleading accounts, despite dispute requests, demonstrates a lack of compliance with the FCRA and disregard for the harm caused to consumers. These accounts are damaging my credit and impairing my financial standing without proper basis. 

I request that the CFPB investigate Equifaxs noncompliant handling of my disputes and compel them to delete any account they can not fully verify with legally sufficient documentation. 

I am attaching supporting documentation for your review, including dispute letters and my credit report excerpts.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint because there is inaccurate and/or unverifiable information being reported on my credit report by a consumer reporting agency. I recently obtained a copy of my credit report and fo

und one or more accounts that either do not belong to me, are reported inaccurately, or have already been paid in full. I submitted a written dispute directly to the credit reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically citing violations of 1681e ( b ) for failing to ensure maximum accuracy, and 1681i for not conducting a reasonable reinvestigation within the 30-day timeframe. 

Despite my demand, the inaccurate information remains on my report, and I have not received sufficient verification or documentation ( such as a signed contract or complete payment history ) to justify the continued reporting of the disputed account. I believe this reflects willful non-compliance with the FCRA and is causing me harm.
