Complaint:
I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment concerning the ongoing issues I have been facing while trying to correct late open accounts, and removed or correct the late closed accounts, and late open accounts on my credit report with Credit Bureaus. These inaccuracies have been causing significant distress and financial hardship, and despite my multiple attempts, the situation remains unresolved. I believe it is essential to provide an overview of the numerous attempts I have made : I first noticed the late open accounts, late closed accounts on my credit report and promptly contacted Credit Bureaus. I explained the situation and submitted the required documentation. I was assured that the issue would be corrected promptly. After not receiving any updates or resolutions, I followed up on the status of my case. I was informed that my case was under review, and I would be contacted shortly. To my dismay, I had still not received any updates or resolutions. I made another inquiry and was told that my case had been escalated, and I should expect a resolution within a specific timeframe. The timeframe for resolution passed, and I had yet to receive any communication or see any progress in correcting the late open accounts, late closed accounts, and charge-offs. I contacted Credit Bureaus again, only to be told that my case was still under investigation, with no further information provided. This cycle has continued without any meaningful progress, despite my providing all necessary documentation and complying with Credit Bureau 's requests. The presence of these inaccuracies on my credit report is significantly impacting my financial and personal well-being. I request the following : Immediate and effective action to correct the late open accounts, and remove the late closed accounts on my credit report. Clear communication regarding the status of my case and the steps being taken to rectify the issue. A formal written acknowledgment of the correction of these inaccuracies. Compensation for any financial losses or damages incurred as a result of these inaccuracies. I am asking for your assistance to correct or removed the following accounts : XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} - Please check the Payment History and Status information on this account and adjust accordingly. 
XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} - The number of late payments is incorrect. I never missed a payment. Please adjust immediately.
