The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$XXXX} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I previously sent a letter asking for the documentation you used to verify these late payments, such as a transactional history, since what's reporting is not in line with any of my records and I know for certain that what's reporting is incorrect and inaccurate. Late payments affect my scores by a great deal, for sure you know that. How would you feel if the late payments reporting are not true but it keeps on weighing down your scores. SEE ATTACHED.

My account with DEPT OF ED/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 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. 

DEPT OF EDXXXX AND XXXX XXXX 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 XXXX and It was never provided. 

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

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 XXXX, 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 XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

The credit bureau, ( XXXXTransUnion ) has allowed an account from XXXX XXXX XXXX to be reported without properly verifying its accuracy. This account has no identifiable account number, is misrepresented as Original Creditor, and was illegally re-aged. Despite disputing this with the bureau, it has remained on my report, resulting in a significant credit score drop. This violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires credit bureaus to ensure the accuracy and completeness of reported information. I am seeking the immediate removal of this inaccurate account and for the bureau to enforce proper verification standards moving forward.

Issue: Taking/threatening an illegal action — Threatened to sue on too old debt
Company: Hameroff Law Group, P.C. (AZ)

Hameroff Law Firm, in XXXX, Arizona sued me for a debt less than XXXX dollars for collection. Before the lawsuit, they would call me at all hours of the day, leaving horrible messages and the few times I spoke to them, they left me in a state of panic. I explained the current circumstances at the time and how I could pay but they would not accept it, they wanted all the money at one time and immediately. Communication with them was absolutely terrifying and I was afraid to even answer the phone. 

Hameroff sued me, I went to the courthouse but it would cost me additional money to answer, money I did not have. I left messages to the company but they did not return my calls. 

I began working with XXXX to help restructure my debt and even they had a difficult time establishing any kind of worthwhile communication. Hammeroff, treated them the same way they were treating me. 

Eventually, they got a judgment against me and garnished my wages for close to {$300.00} dollars every two weeks - that is the equivalent of half my paycheck. 

The debt could have been paid in one payment, but rather, they penalized me with close to {$1200.00} in fees for a debt that was less than {$300.00} dollars. 

Hameroff Law Firm, made it impossible for me to reply in court, make arrangements for payment or work with me - rather it was abusive phone calls, threats and harassment. 

Thank you.

Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of XXXX XXXX. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The XXXX  of my XXXX  was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission XXXX XXXX affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case. 


Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company (MD)

RE : Dispute XX/XX/year>, ( 30 Day late Payment Reporting ) I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address an issue that has arisen with my credit report concerning my mortgage payment. I would like to formally clarify that I have never missed a mortgage payment. My mortgage payment of XXXX was paid and cashed on XX/XX/year>. I believe this entry on my credit report does not accurately reflect my payment history and could potentially impact my creditworthiness unjustly. My bank records clearly demonstrate that my mortgage payments have been made consistently and on time. Furthermore, Freedom Mortgage processed my payment promptly, cashing the check on the scheduled due date. During the month of XXXX, I was not informed of an escrow shortage, no call, no email, no communication from freedom Mortgage. This is a pure example of payment misattribution and a violation of fair credit reporting. I want to assure you of my commitment to fulfilling my financial obligations. I kindly request that you consider this information and review my credit report considering my consistent payment history. If necessary, I am more than willing to provide any relevant documentation to support my claim, I have the cashed mortgage payments for every month. Freedom mortgage automated recording still to his day informs me no payment is due and that Im not due until the next month which in now XXXX. This unfair reporting caused a huge drop in my credit score during the exact moment I was trying to purchase a home. Due to this inaccurate reporting, I will not be able to pay the mortgage with the high interest rate caused by this situation my credit score dropped XXXX points. I am a hard working minority trying to provide a better life for my family. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your understanding and support.
