My account with XXXXXXXX XXXX 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 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. 

XXXXXXXX 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!

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: PNC Bank N.A. (MI)

My account was fraudulently charged multiple times for months by non-existent foreign companies. I unfortunately didn't pay close enough attention and it took me a while to realize how much. Some transactions were months old but some had just occurred. Because I didn't report it when it first started happening they refuse to help me. The charges are several per day and in some instances there were as many as 5 in a day for the exact same amount to 5 different companies. It was obviously fraud but PNC Bank won't help me and in fact have charged me over {$1000.00} in fees this year. They are profiting of their inability to keep my funds safe and there seems to be nothing I can do about it.

The company reported my account delinquent in XX/XX/23 but I was never delinquent.

They charged me a late fee and I was not late. I spoke to XXXX XXXX  and they have refused to solve the problem. 

This has been an ongoing concern with this credit card company. Theyre being malicious and reporting incorrect account information

information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. 

As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Equifax, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc (TX)

I was scammed. I called who I thought was XXXX support to dispute a {$17.00} dollar charge on my account. I was then told I had been scammed through my other XXXX payment accounts that I do get tipped on at work. They had sent me the XXXX XXXX XXXX payments as you see in my statements. They had me screen share with them so they could see me navigate through my XXXX XXXX XXXX to help with my security. I was then instructed to deposit it into my banking account, where they had me send XXXX to my best friend have her send it it back to me. I did so then started to question on if this was for my benefit. So I had told them to take it back and that I dont want to be scammed because I have nothing worth taking. He then informed me that in order to take it back I needed to buy some to XXXX then have the confirmation sent to him so they could revive the funds back. As sending that high of payments for me was flagged. And additional {$500.00} charge was then used to send to a business associates account. 
My bank has been notified and said this needs to be resolved with both XXXX payments apps customers support. They have the remaining XXXX places on a pending charge on my account. They are needing a form of written to consent to release the rest back to PayPal. Ive had to opened a whole new account with the same bank and was even advised to file a police report. 

I was also told by XXXX XXXX that all XXXX  transactions are final and can not be reversed. 
My biggest fear is having to pay back the money that was lost to PayPal. 
I have numbers and evidence on my phone than Im more than willing to share to get this issues resolved. Thank you for your time.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Aldous & Associates, PLLC (TX)

I received a call from Aldous & Associates back in XXXX, XXXX, they left a cryptic message about a debt. I decided to call back. Only THEN did I receive a reference number for their debt collection. I did not receive any written communication about this debt prior to this phone call. ( Where is their proof? ) I later filed a dispute and mailed them a certified copy on XX/XX/2024. 

It is now XX/XX/XXXX, and I had to call them for an update. The debt collector didn't respond to my dispute letter within five days. And I have not received verification of the debt ( i.e., a copy of any contract or agreement that shows I agreed to pay the debt, or a statement that the debt is within the statute of limitations and can be legally enforced ).
