Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (CA)

I maintain credit with American Express and pay my bill with them. I recently started a new business that I boot strapped and this resulted in multiple credit accounts being utilized ( it's why I have and build credit ).

One of my accounts with American Express reached about 75 % of the accounts credit limit. I received a threatening letter from American Express that if I didn't pay an extra {$1600.00} in 3 days they were going to review my account and possibly reduce my credit. 

I have maintained all required contractual obligations with American Express and I stated clearly to them that if you reduce my credit for any reason other than default, or multiple late payments that they are in breach of our contract. 

I will state again : My account is not delinquent. 
My account has not been delinquent. 
I have paid on time. 
I have paid all interest accrued on this account. 
No where in my contract does it state I have to maintain an amount below a threshold or have my credit reduced. 

Credit reduction will have an unnecessary impact on my credit and I will seek damages from American Express.

My account with XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. 


XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( 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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
