Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NC)

Consumer Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/year> Complaint Overview : I am submitting this complaint due to inaccurate and misleading information being reported on my credit report by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TransUnion XXXX Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with the credit bureau, the inaccuracies remain, and I am seeking the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus assistance in investigating and correcting these errors. 
Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX Key Issues : Late Payments Misreported as Income : Several late payments on my open accounts have been incorrectly reported as income on my credit report. According to 26 U.S.C. 61 ( a ), income refers to gains or profits such as wages, dividends, or other sources. Late payments are not taxable income, and therefore reporting them as such is inaccurate.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), creditors and credit bureaus are required to report information accurately. The classification of late payments as income violates federal law.

Closed Accounts Incorrectly Reported as Charged-Off : Certain closed accounts are being inaccurately reported as charged-off, despite having been resolved. These accounts should be updated to reflect a status of paid as agreed.

Under 28 U.S.C. 3201 ( e ) and 31 C.F.R. 285.12, debts classified as Certificates of Indebtedness should not continue to be reported negatively once resolved. The current reporting is not in compliance with these statutes. 
Specific Actions Requested : Immediate removal of late payments that are incorrectly classified as income from my credit report, while keeping the open accounts active and positive. 
Update of closed accounts currently reported as charged-off to reflect " paid as agreed '' with a positive status, as required by federal law. 
Attempts to Resolve the Issue : I have previously contacted XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX to dispute these items and requested verification of the information as per the Fair Credit Reporting Act. However, the credit bureau has failed to correct these inaccuracies or provide adequate verification of the information in question. I am now seeking the CFPB 's assistance in holding the credit bureau accountable and ensuring that they follow federal guidelines. 

Relevant Laws Cited in My Dispute : 26 U.S.C. 61 ( a ) Income does not include late payments or delinquent debts.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) Furnishers of credit information must ensure the accuracy of reported data.

28 U.S.C. 3201 ( e ) Guidelines for debts classified as Certificates of Indebtedness.

31 C.F.R. 285.12 Restrictions on how settled government debts should be reported.

I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

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!
