XX/XX/XXXX called and requested payoff amount to payoff XX/XX/XXXX. Amount given and paid in full XX/XX/XXXX XXXX checked online to make sure payment posted and {$24.00} late fee assessed. Called customer service and explained I was never informed there would be a late fee if paid XX/XX/XXXX and obviously amount not added to payoff amount. Requested the late fee be waived. Rep said he would request waiver. 
XXXX checked online fee still not waived called back told takes 24-48 hours XXXX checked online again still not posted called again informed that it was approved but they are waiting for it to be posted can take up to 4 days XX/XX/XXXX checked online again still not posted called back was told it was approved and they had some kind of system update causing issues please be patient. 
XX/XX/XXXX called and checked again no changes. A lot of apologies but no assistance. 
Called a few more times given the same story it has been approved waiting for it to be posted internal issues because of update apologies and request for patience. 
XX/XX/XXXX checked online again still not posted call again and request satisfaction department, speak to woman who acknowledges approved waiver says it has not been posted but she would put in request for release since it was approved should receive a fax copy in 48 hours. Never received XX/XX/XXXX called to 2 separate departments and was told NO managers to talk to department who posts credit gone for the day but they would send an email to have it reviewed and expedited, but release would not be issued until credit posted. 
3 weeks I have waited 3 weeks of being given the run around, 3 weeks of no one fixing the problem and 3+ weeks of waiting for a satisfaction because they cant fix problems on their own system update.

I and no one else should be punished because of their internal problems. I can not get clear title without a release from them to sell my car. It is unacceptable, they make promises and dont follow through, I am worried they are gon na report this on my credit as past due when it is paid in full. I have read numerous complaints about them and their predatory, unethical and useless customer service practices. They want their money and will ruin your credit to get it but wont complete the process once they receive their money

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX 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 to be removed/updated. 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. 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!

I noticed three accounts from the XXXX XXXX on my credit report. The original creditor was XXXX. 
I wrote a letter to XXXX last winter and informed them that I had been a victim of fraud ; my now ex-husband sent his new girlfriend into grocery stores and wrote checks for food. I asked them to please work with me, as the bank has been doing until this goes to court. My certified letter was ignored and immediately the XXXX XXXX started reporting these accounts. 
When I was first made aware of the situation, I filed a fraud report with the credit reports and thought my files had been frozen until this can be resolved in court. 
I am protected under the FCRA from this being done to me with these accounts and have jumped through every hoop possible to get it resolved.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX SSN # : XXXX Email : XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Dear creditor, 30 days ago, I sent you a letter asking you to investigate the account listed below as I feel that your company is reporting inaccurate information. You have not responded within the allowed time frame by law, which is 30 days. Is there any reason why you have not responded? I have given you all the information that you need to investigate this matter. I'm not an expert in the law, but I do know the basics of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the FACTA ACT. 

Account : Reason : Instruction : Report Number : XXXX Account Name : ADS/Comenity/Victoria Account Number : XXXX XXXX Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Current Status : Open Status Updated : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Late Payments Reported : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX I am disputing the inaccurate reporting of late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX on my XXXX account ( Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX After speaking with a representative of ADS/Comenity on a recorded line, I was assured that these late payments would be corrected to reflect an " on-time '' status, yet this inaccurate data persists on my credit report. This ongoing false reporting directly violates 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that all information provided to credit bureaus must be accurate. It also infringes upon XXXX XXXX  compliance standards under the Consumer Data Industry Association ( CDIA ), particularly the guidelines for accurate reporting in Account Status ( Field 17 ) and Payment Rating ( Field 17A ), which must reflect the true state of the account as verified by the creditor. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1692e of the FDCPA prohibits any false, misleading, or deceptive practices in debt reporting, and the representatives misrepresentation of account status correction constitutes a violation of this regulation. Furthermore, UCC 1-201 ( 37 ) and UCC 2-715 address my rights to accurate financial reporting and entitle me to seek damages for the negative impact caused by such inaccuracies. I demand immediate correction of this account, with the late payments removed and the account updated to reflect a current, on-time payment history in compliance with XXXX XXXX standards. If not resolved within 30 days, I will pursue statutory damages for the financial and emotional harm caused by this non-compliance, including a claim for damages under FDCPA and UCC protections.

I don't want to file any complaints against your company, but I need your company to follow the law and either fix the inaccurate reporting or complete your investigation within the next 10 days. If the investigation is not complete within 10 days, I will file complaints with the attorney general office, the FTC and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. 

I await your response. 

sincerely, XXXX XXXX
