My accounts 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 to be removed/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.

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!

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX XXXX Code XXXX ) says ( XXXX ) 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 ( XXXX ) 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 {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them

I noticed some unfamiliar items on my credit report, which suggests that my identity may have been stolen since I did not authorize these accounts. I've raised this issue before, and I'm now requesting the prompt removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence is causing me significant stress and does not accurately reflect my credit history or financial behavior. If we can not resolve this, I am prepared to pursue legal action to protect my rights and find a solution. These inaccuracies are severely hindering my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as buying a home and supporting my family. I hope we can address this issue soon.

To Whom It May Concern, Upon reviewing my credit report, I have identified several billing errors that constitute violations of 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ). Specifically, the creditor has failed to comply with the requirement that payments on an open-end consumer credit plan must not be considered late unless each periodic statement is mailed or delivered no later than 21 days before the payment due date. Additionally, there has been a failure to accurately reflect payments or credits issued to me and a computation or similar accounting error on the creditors statement. Since I was not notified 21 days before the payment due date, any reported late payments on this account are incorrect. I request that you provide solid proof from the creditors bank account showing that I did not make the payment and that it was marked late, as this indicates a billing error. The items in question must be updated to " paid as agreed '' on my consumer report. 

XXXX - XXXX This account is PAID on time and PAID as agreed! This is a violation of 15 U.S. CODE 1666B. It was never late, so delete this 30-day late remark from the payment history as follows : Late 30 days in XX/XX/XXXX Late 30 days in XXXX XXXX XXXX USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) - Permissible Purposes ( a ) In general, subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) in written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Again, remove this 30-day incorrect late remark and update it to " paid as agreed, '' or DELETE it entirely from my report. 

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I believe this is incorrect and should be removed by the provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ( CARES ) Act of 2020. According to the XXXXARES Act, during the COVID-19 pandemic, creditors were required to report accounts in a manner that did not adversely affect consumers who were granted forbearance or other relief due to pandemic-related hardships. The account in question is reported as late, despite my eligibility for such relief under the CARES Act. Remove these incorrect late 30 and 60 days from my report!

Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (FL)

On Monday XX/XX/2022 my husband and I requested ( via telephone ) an XXXX transfer of funds from our Ally Bank JOINT on-line savings account to our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account. We provided the Ally Bank all information required, as we had a XXXX XXXX representative on the other line helping us. We were told that this would take a few days. By Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX morning, no funds had been transferred. We again called Ally and requested that they wire transfer the funds, as we were now frustrated and willing to pay {$20.00} for a wire transfer. We were told by the Ally representative that a wire transfer must be initiated on line. At approximately XXXX XXXX  on Thursday XX/XX/XXXX, we completed the on-line wire request form and I received a confirmation e-mail at XXXX XXXX  from Ally Bank XXXX We were told that a representative from Ally would call us to confirm the transfer. We stayed home all Thursday afternoon waiting to receive this call. No call. No wire transfer. Friday was a bank holiday, so Monday morning we called Ally, waiting on hold for almost half an hour. Were were told that the wire transfer department was closed and there was nothing we could do until they opened. The representative, XXXX, would not give a message to the wire transfer department to call us back, as we did not want to wait on hold again. We then tried an on-line chat. Chats with XXXX and XXXX did not resolve this issue. However, XXXX told us that we needed to call back and ask for the Loss Prevention Department. Another phone call back to Ally ( they only have one number, so no direct line to Loss Prevention or Wire Transfer Departments ). XXXX at Ally informed us that Loss Prevention would call us, that we could not initiate the call to them ( XXXX was WRONG ). Ally 's wire information states that wire transfers must be reviewed by them by XXXX XXXX  in order to go out that day. At XXXX XXXX  I received a call from Ally ( while I was shopping at XXXX ). They asked many questions, mostly about the receiving account at XXXX, information that I had already submitted via their on line wire transfer form. As I did not have that information handy ( at XXXX ), my husband had to call XXXX and have them tell us the information while we held our two phones together on speaker phone ( IN THE MIDDLE OF XXXX WHERE ANYONE COULD HAVE HEARD THIS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION!!! ) so the Ally representative could be satisfied. It is now XXXX XXXX  EST and the wire transfer has not yet gone. We started this process over a week ago. This is our money. It does not belong to Ally. I think that Ally Bank needs to be fined or punished for keeping a customers money long after they have requested it. In addition, the {$20.00} wire transfer fee should be reimbursed to us.

I did not authorize this inquiry, nor did I initiate any transaction with your company that would justify this inquiry. Therefore, this inquiry is in violation of the FCRA. The presence of this unauthorized inquiry on my credit report is negatively affecting my XXXX XXXX and could potentially impact my financial opportunities. 

I request that you immediately investigate this unauthorized inquiry and provide me with documentation or proof of my authorization.
