Complaint:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' Equifax and XXXX and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer.

'' Which has not occurred in my case. Also these credit reporting agencies know it is illegal to report transaction history as well as utilization per 15 USC 1681i where it states " a report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; meaning between myself and the institution I have dealings with not these third party companies.

Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
Re : credit card number ending XXXX I was advised multiple times since XX/XX/2023 ( the date of my last payment ) that late charges prior to that payment would be waived if I made the payment in full ( approx {$63.00} ), which I did in XX/XX/2023. In XXXX, when I saw that, not only the old late fees were not waived as promised, but new late fees were added to my account, I called again and spoke to a customer service rep in length, and was once again promised that all late fees would be removed and my account should have XXXX balance. In XXXX when that did not happen, I started working with XXXX who represented herself as a supervisor. We had multiple conversations from late XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. During that time XXXX stated repeatedly that she would try to get it resolved, apologized for the delay in communication, and asked me to be patient. In the meantime, more late fees were added to my account ( and some interest ). I wrote to XXXX on XX/XX/2023 via XXXX Mail to formally dispute the balance, and refused to pay. XXXX now reported my account to the credit bureau as " Dilinquent '', and never replied to my written correspondence. 

This is a classic case of " Junk Fee '' charged by the credit card issuer.

Complaint:
I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ).

[ Describe the specific inaccuracies on your credit report. Include any incorrect transactions, erroneous account details, or other errors. ] According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors. 

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion. 

Based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation. 

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX This updated letter includes the additional law you provided, reinforcing your dispute based on relevant statutes.
