State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX 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 60 days 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. 


XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX 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 XXXX

Complaint narrative:
" 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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. ''

Complaint narrative:
My finalized dispute has Confirmation Number XXXX, submitted XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX are still being included on my Equifax report with balances, although the balances transferred to a new loan servicer ( XXXX ) at the beginning of XXXX. The other two credit bureaus correctly updated balance information for these loan holders, but Equifax presents both XXXX and XXXX with balances -- displaying XXXX as much in student loans. Equifax closed the dispute on this after only updating XXXX info to show balances as *current, * but not {$0.00}. Once the dispute was closed by Equifax, I called XXXX to ask about the situation from their end ( months ago ). A XXXX rep confirmed the loan balances are {$0.00}, and encouraged me to submit an easily accessed XXXX XXXX letter showing loan balances are {$0.00} ( which letter had been included in my filing of the dispute with Equifax ). The XXXX rep was also able to tell me Equifax had contacted them, but not what was discussed. This latter makes the situation more confusing, as Equifax still didn't remove the XXXX loan balances. The whole situation is now further complicated by the fact that my Equifax credit report is no longer accessible, and has not been accessible for months ( which is why I'm now filing this complaint ). I called Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX to try to restore my report, but the agent I spoke with was not able to help and deflected from concern about the report being unaccessible ( though she couldn't access it, either ). She recommended waiting -- said that maybe the problem was a momentary glitch which would resolve on its own. I did wait -- nearly two months, now. My Equifax report is still not available, as of now. I just called Equifax again, and the agent I spoke with told me to call back later because their entire system is currently down. These experiences make me question whether Equifax remains a viable business. Can you please find out what is going on with Equifax, and please help with this situation?
