Consumer complaint received 2025-01-08 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint to express my deep disappointment and frustration regarding your company 's lack of response to the compelling evidence I provided through an FTC XXXX.I specifically want to address my most recent communication on XX/XX/year>. In that correspondence, I requested EQUIFAX to conduct an investigation to authenticate a disputed account. I highlighted that this account potentially contained inaccuracies and should not be on my consumer report. While an " investigation '' was carried out, I must bring attention to a significant issue that has arisen. I received a letter stating that the creditor confirmed the accuracy of the accounts.It seems improbable that this creditor, managing millions of accounts across various bureaus, would take the time to verify this specific account unless prompted by EQUIFAX. I strongly believe that EQUIFAX employed delaying tactics against me in processing this investigation. Let me be clear : such behavior not only constitutes a stalling tactic but also violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by neglecting to address my dispute request. The initial request for investigation was solely initiated by me, with valid reasons to believe inaccuracies existed on my credit report and without involvement from any third-party agency. It appears EQUIFAX intentionally disregarded my request for a thorough investigation.Therefore, this complaint serves as a formal notice demanding EQUIFAX to provide a detailed outline of your verification procedures within 30 days for the specified accounts below. Failure to comply will leave me no option but to pursue legal action against your company. Please investigate and remove it from my credit report.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act the creditors XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Truist Bank have violated my rights under 15 USC 1681 section 602 states that I have the right to privacy.

15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 also states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

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 {$XXXX} 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.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Electronic communications — Frequent or repeated messages
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against a credit card debt collector who has repeatedly sent me emails regarding a debt that has been reported on my credit for over four years. Due to their failure to properly communicate my rights, particularly my right to dispute the debt, I was not made aware of the option to dispute this claim until now. This lack of clear communication is a direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically sections prohibiting harassment, misleading practices, and failure to provide proper notice of dispute rights. Additionally, this situation may violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as the debt was reported without providing adequate opportunity for dispute or verification. As a result, I feel my financial rights have been severely violated. I request immediate action to resolve this matter and ensure that my rights are protected moving forward.

My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated.

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.

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!
