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

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX I'm writing to dispute a late payment and credit inquiries reported on my credit report for my former account with XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( Partial Account Number : XXXX ). The account is currently closed. 

A late payment was reported on XX/XX/XXXX, but this was due to an annual fee I wasnt aware of. As soon as I saw the charge, I paid it right awaybefore it reached 31 days past due. Ive always made my payments on time, and this one-time situation was resolved quickly. 

However, the late mark has remained on my credit report, and no updates have been made. Additionally, this incident led to three hard inquiries being added to my report, which I believe is excessive and damaging.

I respectfully request the following : That the late payment be reviewed and either corrected to reflect an on-time status or removed entirely if it was reported in error. 
That the related inquiries be removed from my report, as they were tied to a one-time issue that was addressed promptly. 
If you believe the late payment is accurate, please provide supporting documentation showing the charge date, due date, and when it was paid. If that can not be provided, I kindly ask that the late mark and related inquiries be removed. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
