Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (LA)

My account with ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX 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 in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) 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. 


( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 1002 and It was never provided.

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

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc (CA)

I booked a hotel stay in XXXX XXXX Nevada through a company called XXXX, ( confirmation # XXXX ). They had a promotion/offer indicating that I could use a XXXX  credit card by the loan company Affirm, which offers installment loans or book now and pay later financial services. Because I already had Affirm I decided to utilize this XXXX  credit card option to secure my Hotel reservation for my birthday weekend, at the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The stay was from Fri, XX/XX/XXXX - Sun, XX/XX/XXXX When I arrived at the property ready to check in, the front desk agent told me that this XXXX  credit card provided by XXXX and Affirm ( credit card ended in XXXX. Exp XX/XX/XXXX ) was not a valid form of payment, because it was a XXXX  card and the property only accepted physical cards. So right there and then the front desk agent cancelled the original booking with XXXX. She then immediately rebooked my stay using my own physical debit card ending in XXXX. Exp XX/XX/XXXX and it was on that card that all charges for my stay were processed. I went on with the weekend and that was that. The full amount loaned by Affirm on the XXXX credit card was {$600.00}, which the hotel property in XXXX XXXX refunded back to XXXX as it was not a usable or valid form of payment A few months went by and I saw a charge on my Affirm profile and it's from XXXX charging me {$110.00} for the hotel stay at the XXXX, which was a wrong charge. Now at this point The Affirm XXXX  Credit Card was charging me {$130.00} with fees and has sent me to collections! Even though according to the XXXX XXXX, they had refunded the full {$600.00} back to the Affirm Card. 

I went back and forth with both XXXX and Affirm. I have tried for months to resolve this with Affirm and XXXX I have submitted proof of all sorts, even the invoice from the XXXX XXXX indicating where only my personal card was charged and not the XXXX  Credit Card from Affirm, which was never an acceptable form of payment at the property. Yet, Affirm continued with their negligence and sent me to collections. This has negatively affected my credit score. The culprit here is Affirm and XXXX, none of these financial companies are taking the responsibility for this financial exploitation. 

I believe that Affirm needs to clear my credit and remove that charge from account because it is not valid. 

Thank you

I do not agree with the reporting of this collection agency. They claim to have sent a verification letter but have not. Also, they claim the date of opening to be 2019 which is not accurate as I did not have XXXX  in 2019. I would like this claim to be investigated thoroughly and for this debt to be verified with the credit bureau as the credit bureaus has never verified this debt. I deny any type of ownership towards this as well as the statue of limitations that a debt can be reported.

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''

Company: Cedars Business Services, LLC (DC)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from Cedars Business Services ( see attached file ) attempting to collect a debt of {$14.00} that the e-mail claimed is from XXXX -- a car rental service that I used in DC that has not done business in Washington XXXX DC for more than a year. I received similar emails from Cedars on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ( today ). 

I have my records from XXXX, and I see no charge for {$14.00} and no unpaid charges. Their internal reference number is unique to this charge, I presume, but the account number does not correspond to my XXXX account. 

I spoke with the company this evening using the number provided in their emails ( XXXX ). They placed me on hold to find the records of the charge, and when the representative returned, he said that they would need more time and would email the proof of the charge to me within 7-10 business days.
