Complaint narrative:
Equifax is reporting an account on my credit report that does not belong to me. The company that appears to be stating that it is my account is XXXX XXXX XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX this company contacted me by mail stating I owed for an account in the amount of XXXX, they are reporting XXXX as of XX/XX/XXXX and start reporting this in XXXX when they never provided any proof the account is mine because I know it is not mine. Their amounts don't even match and I have not paid anything because it's not my account, yet is appears less on my report than when I spoke to them a few years ago. I wrote them a letter stating that it was not my account and that they needed to provide all and any documents for request for credit for the account. They were unable to provide and are in violation of XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ). It appears that this company then placed this account for reporting to XXXX in XXXX. I further requested documents from the company XXXX XXXX XXXX claims the original creditor is, XXXX and they could not provide. XXXX does not show this account on my report. Equifax must maintain correct information on my profile and remove inaccurate information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This account needs to be removed. If Equifax or the company that they have a paid relationship with for reporting can not provide me with the documents obtained to validate this account they are violating the law, 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ).

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
My account with Equifax was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 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 XXXX  days before the payment due date.

Equifax Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  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
