XX/XX/year> Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payments on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments reported on my credit file maintained by Experian. These late payments are erroneous and do not accurately reflect my payment history for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Complaint Details Inaccurate Reporting : The late payments listed on my credit report are inaccurate. I have consistently made my payments on time, as I have been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts. This account should reflect a record of timely payments. 
Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : The inaccurate reporting of these late payments violates my rights under the FCRA ( 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ), as it misrepresents my creditworthiness.

Potential Violation of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : The reporting of an incorrect late payment may also constitute a violation of the FDCPA, which protects consumers from misrepresentation regarding their accounts.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : I assert that these reporting practices violate the TILA, which mandates accurate reporting of credit information.

Additionally, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports to ensure maximum accuracy. Under articles 616 and 617 of the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o ), willful and negligent noncompliance could result in civil liability, including actual damages, attorneys fees, and potential punitive damages. 
Discrepancies in Payment History The discrepancies in reporting by each bureau are as follows : XXXX : Incorrectly reports XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX late payments in XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/year>, along with an additional XXXX late in XX/XX/year>. These entries are inaccurate, as all payments were made on time. 
Experian : Similarly shows late payments with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX notations in XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/year>, as well as a XXXX late in XX/XX/year>, despite timely payments. 
XXXX : Reflects inaccurate late payment statuses of 30 days in February 2024, 60 days in XX/XX/year>, and 90 days in XX/XX/year>, along with an additional XXXX late entry in XX/XX/year>. All of these entries are incorrect, as I have paid on time. 
These entries have unjustly affected my creditworthiness by misrepresenting my payment history. 
Requested Resolution I request that Experian conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and remove the inaccurate late payments from my credit report. I ask that all such entries be updated to reflect my true payment history of 100 % on-time payments.

I expect to receive written documentation confirming the removal of these entries within 30 days of this complaint submission. Failure to resolve this issue may lead to further action to protect my rights as a consumer.
