I am requesting that the negative credit report items reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) be removed from Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. I will show that these negative occurrences were unintentional, the debt was paid immediately after it was identified, and should be removed from my credit history. I am in the process of applying for a mortgage and my credit score is 70-100 points lower than it should be due to mistake beyond my control and I am being negatively impacted by this mistake. My wife and I have been dedicated XXXX customers since XX/XX/XXXX, and have purchased or leased 13 vehicles and have never been late with a single payment during this period of time. In fact, as my credit history shows, I have been diligent to pay all debts as reflected by my credit score around 800 before these recent negative incidents occurred. 

CREDIT REPORT In late XX/XX/XXXX, my credit report was pulled for a mortgage application and normally I have a credit score of approximately 800 on all three credit bureaus. It was shocking to see that two delinquencies were shown from XXXX, one a 30-day delinquency and a second for a 60-day delinquency for a bill I had paid immediately after I received a bill. 

I immediately called XXXX about the two incidents reported and they said it was related to a late payment for {$370.00} for the cars disposition fee ( {$350.00} ) plus taxes ( {$21.00} ) which I had paid on XX/XX/XXXX. I explained to the XXXX representative in XX/XX/XXXX that I had paid the bill immediately upon finding out about the bill in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I told the XXXX representative that I just found out about the disposition fee bill ( delivered by mail ) and will pay it immediately. I asked the XXXX representative why it shows Account Past Due Settlement Offer Enclosed if this is the first invoice Ive received. The XXXX representative told me that this was the fourth letter sent. I told him that is not true and had never received any letters prior. The XXXX representative in XX/XX/XXXX said that the item would not be a negative report on my credit if this bill was paid right immediately, which I did.. 


HISTORY OF INCIDENT ( 30 & 60-day late payment ) In XX/XX/XXXX, I turned in my XXXX XXXX XXXX leased through XXXX to a non-XXXX car dealership. I had made all 36 payments of my 36-month lease and had turned in the car two weeks prior to the end of the lease date. 

I asked the dealership what happens next since they would not pay for the disposition fee and the salesperson told me that they will return the car to XXXX as a courtesy before the end of lease date, XXXX will inspect the car for damages, and at some point may send you a bill for the disposition fee and the cost of damages that may be over the damages allowed by the lease contract. I knew the car had no damages and this would not be an issue. He did not know how long that process would take and some period of time may pass before I am notified. 

It should be noted that in XX/XX/XXXX ( mid-lease ), I moved from XXXX, FL to XXXX, FL and notified XXXX of this move. 

According to XXXX during my XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX conversations, both representatives commented that four ( 4 ) letters have been sent as follows : 1.XX/XX/XXXX certified letter signature required end of lease statement ; 2. XX/XX/XXXX monthly statement with past due notice ; 3. XX/XX/XXXX monthly statement with past due notice in red letters with credit warning. 
4. Letter dated XX/XX/XXXX Account Past Due Settlement Offer Enclosed. This is the ONLY letter I received and immediately paid the bill upon receipt. 

As I told both representative during the XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX conversations, I did not receive the first three letter correspondences. I asked which address was it sent to since I had moved in mid-lease. They claimed it was sent to my current XXXX, FL address. Because the first correspondence was a certified letter, signature required, I asked who signed for the letter and the XXXX representatives said there was no record of a signature. My wife and I live alone, so no one else could have signed for the letter as evidenced by the fact the XXXX has no signature on file of a letter received. 

The XX/XX/XXXX XXXX representative mentioned that several automatic ( robo ) calls were placed to my cell and I mentioned that I block all robo calls on my cell phone due to the significant number of robo calls I receive. I asked why XXXX didnt email me and they said that was not typically done. I mentioned that I get a significant amount of email from XXXX weekly yet I never received an email about this payment due or the end of lease statement. 

I had also expressed concern to the XXXX representative that non-delivery is a possibility given my move and correspondence could have went to my old address ( and not forwarded ) or that since I live in a condominium/townhome community, I dont have a dedicated mailbox in front of my house, but rather a mailbox bank of 100 boxes/slots. Frequently I receive my neighbors mail and vice versa but I can not move their mail to their slot since its locked, I would have to manually deliver it to them. Further, a large percentage of my neighbors are snowbirds and dont live here during the summer and if my mail was delivered to the wrong address, it may be months before they manually deliver it to me.
