CFPB LATE PAYMENT There seems to be an error on my consumer report furnished by XXXX XXXX XXXX and Carmax auto Fianance. On my consumer report, there is a late payment reported which is causing me damage to me as a consumer and limiting my ability to extend credit. I allege that XXXX XXXX services and Carmax auto Fianance is willfully and knowingly furnishing inaccurate information and defaming my character as a form of extortion. According to 15 U.S. Code, A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan late for any purpose. According to 12 CFR Appendix B to Part 1022 I never received any the model notices stating that any negative information would be furnished to my consumer report.

Is XXXX XXXX services and Carmax auto Fianance attempting to cause some form of harassment to me and violate my right as a consumer purposely? I was never given a reasonable way to opt or limit sharing my creditworthiness according to their privacy policy. Payment defined under 15 U.S Code 78m Payment is define as commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals therefore what form of payment has XXXX XXXX XXXX and Carmax auto Fianance has been excepting for the last years of under the United States Code it is define as commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals? 
Is there a yield of the investment on the account due to me? Has the true nature and fitness of the agreement been provided to me?

I am demanding a response within an appropriate time of 5 business days to answer each concern I have raised in this complaint or I allege that there is a due yield of investment that has been misapplied as a billing error and shall be Returned back to me.

Complaint sub-issue: Trouble getting information about the card

On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to use the card which is managed by a government 3rd party organization called XXXX XXXX to get an XXXX and the charge was denied. When I contacted the financial institution to find out why the agent " XXXX '' told me that the purchase went above the limit and I'd have to contact the managing organization to raise the limit. 
I asked him could I transfer money from it, he said no. I asked him what can I do with the card and he mentioned they have full control. 
I asked him can I cancel the item. He repeated the question to me " Can you cancel it? '' and I said " did I studder? ". 
There was a long silence and after about 10 seconds I said ''just transfer me to your supervisor ''. At the same time I spoke, he spoke, saying " I've cancelled your card and now I'm transferring you ''. 
He immediately transferred me and the hold music started playing. 

When the supervisor " XXXX '' got on the phone I told her what happened and she said there was nothing she could do. Of course naturally after hearing this lack of empathy from her I lost my temper and I started yelling, and rightfully so. 
I never said to cancel the card, and did I studder means exactly that. 
It meant I didn't say anything else other than what was said and it was a simple question -- -- ->>>>>> " Can I cancel the card? ". 
I was simply finding out what I could do with the card. 
I asked question after question after question. This is not a misunderstanding. He did it out of anger and retaliation. 
Also when I hung up on 'XXXX  ' I called back and escalated it to the next chain in command which was 'XXXX ' and XXXX confirmed it's possible it was cancelled out of anger. 
I requested for a call back to find out what happened after they conducted the investigation for transparency. 
Nobody called. 
I've provided proof from my phone logs that I did call them and that the event did take place over my phone.
