My records indicate that these payments were made on time, and the account has consistently been paid as agreed. Additionally, the following errors are present in the reporting of this account : High Balance : Discrepancies exist with {$730.00} reported by XXXX and Experian, and {$500.00} reported by XXXX. 
Last Verified : Differing dates reported, including XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX.
