My account is in good standing. However, there are two late payments noted on my account : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. After these incidents in XXXX and XXXX, I spoke to XXXX XXXX directly about legitimate reasons for why they should remove the late fees. Such late fees were removed at that time and the merchant also agreed to correct the remarks on my credit report.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to inform you of a severe and urgent issue regarding the compromise of my Social Security number, which has made me a victim of a data breach and identity theft. I have already contacted the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and filed an official FTC Report, which is enclosed with this correspondence. I am demanding that you, as a credit reporting agency, immediately block and remove all fraudulent information from my credit report as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ( c ) ( a ). This statute mandates that you act within 4 business days of receiving my complaint. It is outrageous that the following items remain on my credit report, despite this clear requirement : XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX - Misleading False Reporting This account is negligently and inaccurately reporting failing to comply with 15 USC 1692 ( g ) - The information in the article above has never been certified to meet reporting standards, the data provided is not always accurate, complete, or updated, I demand that any wrong, incomplete, or unsupported material be update as agreed this payment history.

My account with those 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

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent.

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.

There are XXXX student loan accounts for my Daughter that i was a co-signer on. Both of these account were in collection. The agency that serviced these accounts was XXXX and they had written off both accounts in XXXX XXXX. Fast Forward on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX XXXX ( XXXX bank ) was settled in full thru XXXX Bank. The XXXX loan on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX XXXX was settled in full thru XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX offices who was contracted by XXXX XXXX XXXX contracted by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to service their accounts. Since this this time I have been trying to get these XXXX accounts reported correctly on our credit reports. Thru numerous disputes dateing back a year or more i can say that this is a disaster. XXXX claims they have nothing to do with these accounts since they wrote them off in XXXX of XXXX yet they are the ones that have done the reporting and who the credit agencies contact for the dispute. XXXX has done another wonderful thing and that is they have XXXX account number for both of those accounts, which is the account number for the XXXX loan, but the XXXX loan is also under that account number But the actual account number is different. Now XXXX and XXXX have sent XXXX letters that these accounts are settled in full, but on our credit reports they are reporting that the Accounts are in collection with a balance due and a balance past due. XXXX even has gone as far as on the XXXX ( XXXX ) of reporting balance XXXX, Payment received XXXX past due XXXX status in collection.Nothing like mixing the XXXX accounts together. I have sent hours i mean hours on the phone with the credit agencies particular XXXX ( because on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX they finally were reporting correctly ... and changed back to reporting incorrectly on XXXX ). All the hours of phone calls and conversations to the credit agencies and to XXXX they absolutely refuse to report these accounts as settled in full. XXXX says they are reporting correctly and the credit agencies tell me they only report what is sent to them and do not have the power to change it. I have also have been told the proof of settled in full is not acceptable because the account numbers do n't match on the XXXX. As i said XXXX did a wonderful thing by listing both accounts under XXXX account number. And They wo n't Rectify that. I know these accounts were in collection and circumstances at the time led to the accounts going to collection. But when the circumstance changed, i made agreements and paid these off. I have worked hard to build my credit back up and my daughter is building hers, that without these XXXX accounts being reported correctly she ca n't buy a home, our insurance rates are higher etc ... We need help and XXXX and the credit agencies refuse to correct this. Your our last resort.

The debt in question is from XXXX XXXX. I was sued by the debt collector and the law firm started garnishing my wages on XX/XX/18. They contacted my employer without my consent and might have used a third party to obtain my employment history. Never did I mention to them where I work. I called on XX/XX/18 to follow up on this matter but they never did provide the information I requested. 25 % of my wages are being withheld and they have refused to compromise with me on any outside settlement and payment plans.

Company: ResidentCollect, Inc. (TX)

I 've been communicating with the XXXX of XXXX manager, XXXX regarding a debt they 've originally noted to be XXXX and I challenged the amount. They then reduced it to XXXX and I challenged that amount as well. I never owed any of these amounts, and they 've since re-aged the debt and are submitting XXXX debts to the bureaus. XXXX of the debts are listed under the Apartment XXXX and the other under Resident Collect. The manager at apartment gave me the number to XXXX XXXX at the Collection agency who she had spoken to that very day regarding my file and suggested I speak to her myself. XXXX XXXX was extremely rude to me. She cut me off before i finished my concern. She said she would transfer me to someone else and when i told her that i preferred speaking to her because she was familiar with my case, she told me since i didnt want to write down the number, she would just transfer me and hung up. When I attempted to reach her several times after that on the same day, she transferred call to another area. When they picked up I asked for XXXX XXXX 's supervisor and the lady questioned me why I wanted to know that, said she would n't give it to me and hung up. I called again several times and they just kept putting me on hold or transferring the call. I finally left a message for XXXX XXXX and to this day, I 've still not gotten a return call. They were rude, disrespectful, did n't offer me any assistance at all. I am trying to buy a house and it is critical that I get this straightened out as it can possibly cause me to lose my chances of purchasing a home. They never gave me proper documentation that said there were damages I did n't make. I did n't leave the apartment in the state they noted. 
I am losing something far greater than they are trying to collect. I 'm working extremly hard to get my credit up to standards to purchase a home and have attempted on so many occasions to resolve and to be so close and can not get any assistance or even a return phone call is totally unacceptable. They could care less if I resolve the issue or not. They are reporting me XXXX and its hurting my credit beyond words as the debt reported on both are high numbers. I can not fix anything without any communication with them. My hands are tied and its extremely stressful. The lack of respect totally affected my health to the point where it triggered a XXXX and my XXXX. These are supposed to be professionals. Something should be done with these collection companies that treat you as though you 're nothing and does n't think respect and professionalism is needed.
