I am writing to formally address concerns regarding the reporting of late payments by [ insert the name of the creditor/financial institution ], which I believe may violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I request your intervention to ensure compliance with the appropriate regulations governing accurate and fair credit reporting.

Under the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ), creditors and financial institutions are legally required to report accurate and timely information to credit reporting agencies. According to the law : Accuracy of Information ( 1681s-2 ( a ) ) : Furnishers of credit information are required to report accurate information to credit reporting agencies. If inaccurate information is identified, it must be corrected promptly.

Duty to Correct and Update Information ( 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 2 ) ) : Furnishers must correct and update information when they become aware that previously provided information is inaccurate or incomplete.

Reasonable Investigation ( 1681s-2 ( b ) ) : When a consumer disputes the accuracy of reported information, creditors must conduct a reasonable investigation and provide corrections if inaccuracies are found. 
Based on my review, [ insert specific details about the late payment reporting, such as the dates and nature of the incorrect reporting ], I believe this information needs to be more accurate and align with the requirements outlined in the FCRA. This inaccurate reporting negatively impacts my creditworthiness and financial well-being. 

I request that the CFPB investigate this matter to ensure that [ creditor/financial institution ] complies with the FCRAs requirements. Specifically, I ask that they be directed to : Correct any inaccuracies in my credit report related to the late payment. 
Ensure all future reporting adheres strictly to FCRA standards. 
Provide written confirmation of the actions taken to correct these inaccuracies. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt assistance in upholding my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Ive been in communications with Experian about inaccurate personal information on my credit report.
