Consumer Narrative
I have reached out to Equifax on XXXX separate occasions to remove and delete an inaccurate account that is reporting on my credit report. Both times their investigation results have come back as " verified as accurate '' for the account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX acct # XXXX for {$3800.00}. They have never confirmed where this information has been verified as accurate. When reviewing the XXXX other reporting agencies ( XXXX and XXXX ), they have the same account listed with a late payment, however none of those dates match. XXXX has it listed as the late payment in XX/XX/2018. XXXX has it listed as late in XX/XX/2018. I have attached those reporting agency results below as well. Because they have not furnished accurate information, I have requested this account be removed. They have failed to do so. As a result, my credit score is impacted negatively.
