My card was used unauthorized to book a hotel not even in my name. two charges for {$760.00} & {$200.00}. my claim was denied in less than 24 hours. another claim i filed was an XXXX XXXX transfer, i was scammed out of {$610.00} & never received an update to provide more information or anything. claim was denied within only 48 hours. thats a lot of money for me to have just lost out on and its upsetting, the proper investigation wasnt even conducted. there wasnt even an attempt to provide provisional credit, just flat out denied my disputes when these are VALID cases. Uploading proof that the hotel sent me that my card was used to purchase on a website not with my name. The {$610.00} charge was a scam as well

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the reporting of charge-offs on multiple accounts in my credit report dated XX/XX/year>. I recently made payments on these accounts in XX/XX/year>, but my report does not reflect these updates. Given these discrepancies, I am requesting the deletion of the charge-off status on the following accounts : Accounts in Question : XXXX  XXXX Account Number ( Masked ) : XXXX Balance : {$11000.00} Pay Status : Charge-off XXXX  XXXX Account Number ( Masked ) : XXXX Balance : {$1500.00} Pay Status : Charge-off XXXX  XXXX Account Number ( Masked ) : XXXX Balance : {$1200.00} Pay Status : Charge-off JPMCB Card Services Account Number ( Masked ) : XXXX Balance : {$1900.00} Pay Status : Charge-off Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Section 623 ( a ) ( 2 ), creditors are required to furnish accurate and updated information to the credit reporting agencies. The failure to reflect my recent payments on these accounts violates this requirement, resulting in incomplete and misleading information on my report. 

In light of these inaccuracies, I am requesting the deletion of the charge-off statuses on these accounts to prevent further negative impact on my credit history. I expect a response within 30 days regarding the results of your investigation, as mandated by FCRA guidelines. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

XXXX reported my payment as late back in XXXX of 2023. I called immediately as I had not received a single notice of the payment delinquency despite it being over 30 days late. They claimed that I was under paperless billing, but received no communication from them regarding this delinquency. 

After speaking with the agent and looking into things further, they confirmed that they had the incorrect personal information including my home address, which is what I had initially had my statements being sent to. They claimed that they don't send any correspondence regarding late payments, which the attached email proves incorrect. Before this I had never had payment history issues with XXXX.

I previously sent a letter asking for the documentation you used to verify these late payments, such as a transactional history, since what's reporting is not in line with any of my records and I know for certain that what's reporting is incorrect and inaccurate. Late payments affect my scores by a great deal, for sure you know that. How would you feel if the late payments reporting are not true but it keeps on weighing down your scores.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Date : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX, PA, XXXX,, XXXX : XXXX D.O.B : XX/XX/XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I am disturbed that you continue to list a dismissed ( filed ) bankruptcy as confirmed. I am aware that you receive your information from a third-party verification system known as a pacer system. This system is sometimes inaccurate because of the limitations of providing a complete Social Security number. Although it is your policy to keep reporting bankruptcy that is filed, dismissed, or adjudicated for 10 years, the Fair Credit Reporting Act mentions nothing in Section 1681c relating to bankruptcy about dismissals or filings. The law clearly states from " date of adjudication '' or date of " order for relief. '' Any case, civil or otherwise, which is dismissed, no longer exists in the eyes of the law, and a case filed may never have been adjudicated. You have no right to maintain information which the government has deemed non-existent. It is only fair that in accordance with section 1681 ( a ) ( S ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act you delete this from my credit report and send me an updated copy.

Considering it does not require an investigation, I would appreciate your response within two weeks from the date you receive this letter. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, all three credit bureaus have different information that is not accurate

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 in 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 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

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!
