XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX  XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Date Error : My payments for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were made on time. I have provided bank statements and payment confirmation receipts which clearly show that the payment was processed before the due date, but the creditor erroneously marked it as late. 
Technical System Failure : Upon reviewing my account activity, I identified that there was a technical issue with XXXX  XXXX 's payment processing system during that period. This error delayed the application of my payment, though it was sent on time, as confirmed by the confirmation number I received after submitting the payment. 
Clerical Mistake by the Creditor : In addition, it seems that XXXX XXXX applied my payments to the wrong account, causing a delay in crediting my account on time. I have documentation showing that this mistake was recognized internally by XXXX XXXX customer service. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

My account with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 in XXXX AND XXXX 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 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I was shocked this morning when I found inaccurate accounts on my credit report, and I have no idea why theyre there. I check my report regularly, but this time, out of nowhere, there were mistakes. I even refreshed my browser, thinking it was a glitch, but the wrong accounts didnt go away. I really hope the documents I sent are reviewed thoroughly so I can stop worrying about this once and for all.

This morning, I was completely taken aback when I found inaccurate accounts listed on my credit report, and I have no idea why this is happening. I routinely check my credit report, but today there were errors that seemingly appeared out of nowhere. I even tried refreshing my browser, hoping it was just a glitch, but the accounts remained. I am beyond frustrated and am requesting that the documents I've submitted be thoroughly reviewed so I can finally stop worrying about this issue.

The credit bureau said that the account name and account number had been thoroughly investigated ; however, how is that possible if the open date, last active date, and last reported date are all off? This is grounds for elimination. My rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 were also infringed upon.

A consumer reporting agency can not provide an account without my explicit consent, according to the law.

I haven't granted these accounts written consent to appear on my credit report as well.

I always make my payments on time. Im certain of that. What confuses me is why this company is showing me as late on some months. According to USC 1666b, any billing mistakes should be fixed, and my account should be marked as paid on time.

Re : Late Payment Dispute under the CARES Act, FCRA, and TILA Account Number : XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX  Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX BANK for reporting inaccurate information related to a late payment on my credit report. This information does not reflect the protections provided under the CARES Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 

CARES Act During the national emergency caused by the XXXX pandemic, I was approved for a financial relief program offered by XXXX XXXX. Under the XXXX XXXX, my account should have been reported in a favorable status while participating in the relief program. However, my credit report shows a late payment, which violates this law. 

Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Under the FCRA, creditors and credit reporting agencies are required to report accurate information. The incorrect reporting of a late payment on my account is unfairly damaging my credit history. I request that the CFPB investigate this inaccurate information and remove this late payment from my credit report. 

Truth in Lending Act ( XXXX ) Additionally, under the TILA, creditors are obligated to provide clear and accurate terms and communicate any changes to loan terms. I was not properly informed by XXXX BANK about how the relief program would impact my credit report, which is a violation of my rights under TILA. 

Request For these reasons, I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure that the inaccurately reported late payment is removed from my credit report. I am attaching relevant documentation that supports my participation in the financial relief program and demonstrates that this late payment was incorrectly reported. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that the necessary steps will be taken to rectify this situation in accordance with applicable laws. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

My credit report has items that have resulted from fraud which I never benefitted from. 
This is a defamation of my character and is incredibly insulting, my rights are being violated which is absolutely distressing. This is already reported to the Federal Trade Commission but it still appears on my report, what a disappointment, the very thing that exists to protect people like me yet nothing is resolved.
