This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

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.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX  XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment was made on time as confirmed by the bank statement attached. 
There seems to have been a clerical error in reporting the payment. 
Additionally, there is no record of any outstanding balance or missed payment based on my financial documentation. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

I was charged by a company called XXXX XXXX multiple times unauthorized. I contacted XXXX first to resolve the issue directly, and no resolve was as made. I called Bank Of America and started a fraud dispute process with screenshots, and attachments showing I tried to directly resolve with XXXX and my claim has been denied three times. I had done business with XXXX before and it was a non issue, until the week of XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. I had redeemed multiple times from them before and never had issues but on these weeks they would deposit money into the account and then either take it back or post new fraudulent charges. On one week being the week of XX/XX/XXXX I was not able to get screenshots for but I had about XXXX in my account, XXXX deposited a little over XXXX in my account and it showed my balance at close to XXXX I cant remember the exact amount. In the morning that had changed to XXXX meaning I was charged while my phone was away. The following week same thing happened. I had about XXXX in my account and they deposited about XXXX in my account and I have screenshots for that one where it shows the amount deposited and my balance at close to XXXX and in the morning it went down to XXXX again and with no new charges. I sent an email to the support team with screenshots and explaining that this has been an issue for two weeks. They sent an email back telling me to wait and see if the deposit cleared because the bank might be holding it. I sent an email back telling them I would wait but had this issue the previous week and am still missing that money. After that I got no response back and next time I checked my account was banned with no access to my points or supposed purchases I made. I sent Bank Of America all this information and they denied my claim. This most recent time I got a letter from Bank of America that XXXX XXXX sent showing the charges but the billing address does not match my card. I asked the Bank representative if the charge should have gone through and they told me no if the billing address doesnt match. This case is still ongoing. I will attach all screenshots I have sent to Bank Of America

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.
