My account withthose creditors was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in those account to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified item listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this item? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. 

Since you claim youve verified the items listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the company directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THIS ITEM? I believe you have not verified this item based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Subject : Dispute of Unauthorized Credit Inquiries To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute several unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

After reviewing my recent credit report, I have identified the following inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize : Disputed Inquiry : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX Basis for Dispute Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) states that I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information on my credit report. I request that you investigate these unauthorized inquiries and remove them from my credit report.

Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) grants me the right to access all information in my file, including the inquiries made. After reviewing this information, I firmly believe that the inquiries listed above should not be on my report.

Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) defines the permissible purposes for obtaining credit reports. I did not give my consent for these inquiries to be made, and I can not find a permissible purpose under this section that justifies their presence on my report.

Request I request an immediate investigation into the listed inquiries. If it is determined that these inquiries were made without my authorization or in error, I ask that they be removed from my credit report. I also request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once the necessary corrections have been made.

Enclosed is a copy of my identification to verify my identity.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Please confirm receipt of this letter and keep me informed of the progress of your investigation.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NY)

I have contacted capital one previously to fix this issue because their representative made a critical mistake by processing my payment INCORRECTLY. They called me and alerted me they were closing my account due to reasons unbeknownst to me and I paid my account right then and there in XXXX, however their negligent employee put in the computer only XXXX causing my account to go into delinquent status. I mean lets talk about what REALLY happened since Capital One did not state this FACT and error in their letters they wrote to these credit companies!! 

. Instead of properly admitting this occurrence, ( which was recorded over call ) they wrote a letter stating no mistakes were found but they still asked the bureaus to update my report which is bullsh*t and not taking accountability for the NEGLIGENCE on their end.. This is extremely conflicting seeing as how correct info must be reported BY LAW. 

Fast forward to today XXXX is the only bureau falsely reporting this negative and incorrect information. I spoke to XXXX of XXXX XXXXXXXX today name XXXX who told me these delinquent payments dont matter because this account is closed but this is a LIE from the pits of XXXX because I am homeless and getting denied apartments for this delinquency so Ill definitely be contacting a lawyer about that. 

Not only that but she transferred me to a supervisor XXXX who denies receiving these letters from Capital one and rudely hung up the phone on me when I tried to ask for his name and was not helpful at all. Luckily I remembered his name because the first rep stated it. XXXX filing another report so capital one can PROMPTLY and CORRECTLY use the proper language so these delinquencies can be updated to PAID ON TIME because it was!!! 
It is unacceptable to say they are no errors found when CLEARLY they know the horrible mistake they made but if they want to sit and play like they dont know there are definitely attorneys for that because I know this is highly illegal. 


The conversation I had with them about their rep INCORRECTLY processing my payment is also on a recorded call so they cant try to lie their way out of this one. AGAIN.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint for Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments reported on my credit file maintained by TransUnion. These entries do not reflect my true payment history and misrepresent my creditworthiness. 
Nature of the Complaint : Inaccurate Reporting : The late payments listed on my credit report for my XXXX XXXX account ( # XXXX ) are inaccurate. I have been consistently enrolled in autopay and have made my payments on time. 
Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : The inaccurate reporting violates the FCRA ( 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ), which mandates accurate and fair reporting of consumer credit information. 
Potential Violation of Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : Reporting false late payments may also violate the FDCPA, protecting consumers from account misrepresentation. 
Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : I assert that these reporting practices violate TILA provisions requiring accuracy in reporting credit information. 
The FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate information and ensure the accuracy of consumer file information. Furthermore, the FCRA articles 616 and 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o ) provide for civil liability for willful or negligent noncompliance, including damages for failure to adhere to Act requirements. 
Requested Resolution : I request that TransUnion conduct a thorough investigation and remove the inaccurate late payments from my credit report. I ask that these entries reflect my true record of on-time payments. I expect written confirmation of the removal of these entries within 30 days of this complaint. 
Summary of Errors and Discrepancies in Account Reporting The following discrepancies have been identified in the reporting of 30-day late payments for my XXXX XXXXXXXX account across the three credit bureaus. These reported late payments are inaccurate, as I have consistently made on-time payments due to enrollment in autopay. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
These discrepancies violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as they misrepresent my payment history and creditworthiness. I am requesting that each bureau correct these inaccuracies and update my account to reflect my actual, on-time payment history. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
