XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Delinquency Reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( Account No. XXXX ) Dear Credit Bureau Representative, This letter is a formal dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. concerning the XXXX XXXX XXXX  account listed above. This account is currently reporting late payments that are factually impossible and therefore inaccurate under federal law. 

Documented Inaccuracies 1. Delinquency History ( XX/XX/XXXX Days Late ) TransUnion & Equifax : XXXX ( mathematically impossible ) Experian : XXXX ( mathematically impossible ) It is impossible to be reported XXXX or XXXX  days late without first being properly reported XXXX and XXXX  days late in sequential order. This contradictory reporting demonstrates clear factual inaccuracy in violation of FCRA standards. 
I have never been late on this account and demand it be updated to reflect Pays As Agreed with 100 % on-time payment history.
