XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion 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 Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by 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 within the XXXX grace period : My payment for XX/XX/XXXX was made on time, which falls within XXXX 's standard XXXX grace period. Therefore, the account should not have been reported as XXXX days late. 
Clerical error by XXXX : Upon reviewing my account, I identified that my payment, which was made on time, was incorrectly marked as late due to an internal clerical error by XXXX. This error led to an inaccurate XXXX late payment report. 
Evidence provided : I have attached bank statements and payment confirmations showing that the payment was made on time. This documentation demonstrates that no delinquency occurred. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion 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

I reviewed my consumer reports and noticed that I had two late payments on an account that I was never late for. The consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum accuracy. I have never been late on payments for this account. I have included a screenshot inside this complaint in on dates of XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that these payments were late. If proof can't be provided I demand these payments to be updated to paid as agreed on time as they should be due to the fact I was never late. Thanks! Please see screenshot attached.

Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.

Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (TX)

I began receiving notices of a credit card opened with a balance Synchrony Bank, the credit arm used by PayPal Credit at some time late XXXX. The " credit card statements '' were being to sent to my father 's address in XXXX Texas despite my not living there for years and in fact I was living in XXXX XXXX, CA at the time. My father ignored the statements thinking they were phishing fraud statements trying to extract payment from me. My first knowledge of this fraudelent account actually being opened and this being a case of stolen identity was upon moving back to Texas, again not at the original address but in fact in XXXX XXXX, Texas in XX/XX/XXXX. My father had moved from the old address and started receiving late notices from XXXX Bank and PayPal Credit. He started keeping the notices as of XX/XX/XXXX. 

As the attached documents notes : the account ending XXXX was opened ( not by me ) on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I reported the fraud and this account was closed yet reopened by Synchrony into another account ending XXXX after their " fraud department " concluded the investigation and the fraud claim was denied. This despite never providing any proof of me opening this account, in XX/XX/XXXX. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, Synchrony closed the account ending XXXX with a balance of {$7200.00} after non-payment and the account was charged off. Again, nothing was provided to me to substantiate the account was opened by my nor a detailed listing of the charges. 
I did not know what had happened and after seeing my credit going from XXXX to XXXX sometime in late XXXX, I again called both PayPal Credit and Synchrony only to get the same response, that a fraud claim was opened and subsequently denied after " investigation '' by Syncrhony basically by calling PayPal Credit to affirm that the account was mine despite this being a fraudelent claim from the very beginning. 
I followed up with Synchrony and again they denied the fraud claim after opening another investigation with no proof of their claim other than apparently calling PayPal Credit again to verify their own fraudelent claim! 
I called Synchrony Fraud Department again and got no answers and if fact they would not disclose anything about the investigation and were asking " me '' to verify information to verify that I was who I was purporting to be by asking questions I did not feel comfortable answering. 
SInce this time, I filed a Identify Theft Report with the FTC on XX/XX/XXXX. I work quite a bit and am getting married along with other family issues so this is something I need to get resolved to clear my credit.

I am writing once again regarding the inaccurate information on my credit report related to incorrectly reported late payments on my credit card account XXXX Bank XXXX # XXXX. Despite my previous letters dated XXXX XX/XX/year> and XXXX XX/XX/year>, I have not received confirmation of the correction, nor have I observed any changes in my credit report. 

XXXX. XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX. XXXX According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, you are obligated to correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of the information contained in consumer files. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1666b requires creditors to send periodic statements with the necessary information at least 21 days before the payment due date. Non-compliance with this regulation has resulted in the appearance of late payments on my credit report, adversely affecting my XXXX XXXX. 

Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), section 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) outlines clear disclosure requirements for creditors to ensure that consumers receive adequate information regarding their payment obligations. Non-compliance with these provisions can result in inaccurate and harmful reporting for the consumer. 

This is my final request for a reinvestigation and correction of the inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report.
