I recently reviewed my consumer report and I noticed that there were three late payments on my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX that I havent been late for. In addition to that, I have also noticed that several of my consumer rights have been violated in the midst of these late payments being added to my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as outlined in 15 USC 1681e ( b ), consumer reporting agencies are responsible for providing maximum accuracy when reporting consumer information, however my consumer report has several inaccuracies that I have attached below. In addition to that late payments are considered transactions due to the late fees that are associated with credit cards & according to 15 U.S. Code 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) consumer reports should not include information pertaining to any transactions or experiences between the consumer and the originator of the report. If this is the case, late payments that I am not responsible for should definitely not be reported on my consumer report! I am aware of several other consumer rights that have been violated and I am prepared to settle for civil liability damages that I have suffered as a result of your violations. Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that these payments were late. If proof can not be provided, I ask that any late payments associated with XXXX XXXX for the month of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX be updated to paid as agreed on time and NOT DELETED so the account can remain active. Thank You! Please see the attached screenshot to view the late payments and inaccuracies that I am disputing. Your cooperation in this matter is crucial to ensure the accuracy of my credit report and to safeguard my rights as a consumer under the FCRA. I appreciate your prompt attention to this dispute and look forward to a resolution in a timely manner.

Automotive Credit corp is showing an inaccurate balance owed of {$4000.00}. I disputed this inaccuracies with XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Automotive credit corp has verified and certified the furnished information is accurate. I then did my own investigation and determined that Automotive does not own this account anymore. They sold this account to XXXX and charged it off. As a result of that sale Automotive credit lawfully has to update my consumer report to {$0.00} balance. I owe no money to Automotive credit since they no longer have ownership of the account. The FCRA requires furnishers to furnish accurate infomation. The FCRA also requires Automotive credit to investigate disputes. I tried calling the listed number on my consumer report and they refuse to help me because they said they no longer hold the account. This inaccurate reporting is a violation of 15 USC 1681 also since they failed to complete their duty to update the consumer reporting agencies this is another violation and noncompliance with the FCRA. Also when i filed my dispute with the consumer reporting agencies and the dispute was forwarded to Automotive Credit they verified the inaccurate information instead of doing a reasonable investigation which is another violation of the FCRA.
