After sending out multiple letters attempting to receive a response and have the information on my credit report updated correctly, I am being ignored and not given any correspondence from the bureau. I understand they have 30 days to complete their investigation and as of yet I have not received information in the mail and also I have not had the items changed to the correct status. I am very distressed and in need of some correspondence. I sent letters on XX/XX/20 and after not receiving any results I followed up with an additional letter XX/XX/20. It is now XXXX and I have heard nothing. I will be sending out another letter to attempt to have these erroneous items addressed and hope to receive a response and corrections. I will also attach the letter I am sending today. Thank you.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (TN)

I purchased TV service from XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, for {$74.00} per month. The service was to include their 250 channels plus XXXX XXXX. I paid the install fee with Citicard of XXXX XXXX, SD. No other charges were authorized. I paid the monthly charges with another credit card which had no association with Citicard. In XX/XX/XXXX I found that XXXX had blacked out 55 % of the 250 channels, but had received no reduction in charges. Since I was not under a contract, on XX/XX/XXXX, I cancelled the XXXX service. XXXX claimed that I owed an early termination fee of {$320.00}. I advised them that I had not agreed to a contract, nor had I signed a contract. In fact, I had never seen their contract. I refused to pay the charges. Because I did not trust XXXX, I telephoned the bank that had been paying my monthly charges, and instructed them to decline any further charges from XXXX. They complied. However, XXXX found in their records where I had paid installation charges from Citicard. They filed the charge with Citicard, who initially paid the charge. When I learned of the deception, I informed Citicard of the forged contract that XXXX had created and instructed Citicard not to pay the XXXX charge. Citicard then reversed the payment to XXXX and purportedly began a half-done investigation. Without talking to me, Citicard decided to pay XXXX, even though I provided Citicard proof that XXXX had forged my signature on the supposed contract. Since then, Citicard has tried to collect the XXXX charge from me. This is how Citicard treats customers who has been doing business with them for 22 years, paying every statement in full and on time.

I hope you're doing well. I've run into a bit of a problem. While going through my credit report, I noticed some things that don't seem quite right, and it appears my identity have been stolen online. My nephew, who's studying XXXX XXXX, helped me out by finding a way to check if my XXXX emails were involved in this breach. To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these accounts. It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.

My accounts 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 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!

Second Dispute of Unauthorized Late Payment Reporting for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ** Dear TransUnion, I am writing to formally dispute the late payment entries on my consumer credit report regarding the account XXXX XXXX ( Account # : XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute regarding two late payments recorded for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, which I can confirm were both paid on time. Unfortunately, despite my request, your agency has failed to provide the necessary documentation to support these claims. Your response of no change needed is unsatisfactory and a clear failure to comply with my lawful request.

In accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b, I am again requesting the following documentation : The periodic statement for each alleged late payment.

The tracking number proving that each periodic statement was delivered to me at least 21 days before the respective payment due date. 
As previously stated, I expect this documentation to be provided as part of your investigation into the accuracy of this information. TransUnion has failed to comply with my initial request, which was in full compliance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I have also filed a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), case # XXXX, regarding this issue. 

This letter serves as a second attempt to resolve this matter and demands that you conduct a full and thorough investigation into the accuracy of these late payment entries. In accordance with Section 611 of the FCRA, your agency is required to ensure that the information in my credit report is accurate and complete to the maximum possible extent.

Additionally, the reporting of this information appears to violate 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) as it was done without my written permission. I request a copy of the written authorization bearing my wet signature that allowed this reporting.

Furthermore, I affirm that I did not authorize the reporting of this information to your agency. Therefore, under Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRA, I demand a thorough investigation and written confirmation that you have completed this investigation, including the names of the entities you contacted to verify the accuracy of this information.
