Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I recently discovered that my creditor failed to provide the required XXXX notice before the payment due date, along with the statement that outlines my balance and due amount. This notice period is critical because it ensures that I have adequate time to review my statement, arrange for payment, and avoid any late fees. 

Due to this oversight, I was not given sufficient time to make my payment on time. As a result, the creditor charged me late fees, and it now appears as though I did not pay my bill when, in fact, I was not given the opportunity to do so within the proper timeframe. This situation arose due to the creditor 's failure to follow the proper notification procedures, and it is their mistake that has caused this issue. 

I expect that, given this error, the creditor will rectify the situation by waiving any associated late fees and adjusting my payment record to reflect that this delay was due to their non-compliance with the XXXX notice requirement, not my negligence.

The mortgage on my residence has been serviced by XXXX XXXX  since XX/XX/XXXX. Since that time, all payments have been made on time, and there has been no default of the loan. 

On XX/XX/XXXX the comaker on my mortgage filed a XXXX  XXXX bankruptcy case. Payments have continued to be paid on time. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  generated a letter that I received advising that negative information was provided to the credit reporting agencies. Within the next month, each of the credit reporting agencies reported that my mortgage was paid and there was no longer a balance due for the account. This was far from the actual facts. I have contacted XXXX and was directed to a representative that handled accounts that were involved in a bankruptcy. I was advised the even though I was not involved in the bankruptcy that the account for their purposes was coded as in bankruptcy. Furthermore, I inquired about having accurate information reported to the credit bureau agencies with regard to the credit report. Additionally, I was advised that they would not report updated information until a time that the comaker on the loan had completed their payment plan. The mortgage is not XXXX of the accounts that is being paid within the XXXX  XXXX plan. 

After that time, I filed disputes with each of the credit bureau agencies concerning the information reported by XXXX Bank. After the investigation by XXXX XXXX, they deleted the account from the bureau. I called XXXX XXXX and the representative advised they could not help, and I would need to have XXXX XXXX  report information to have the account listed on my bureau. Equifax conducted a review of my dispute, but at the end of the investigation did not update any information. The same was the case with XXXX. 

By XXXX XXXX  not reporting information on my mortgage to the credit reporting agencies, this has resulted in my credit score decreasing by approximately XXXX points.

We took delivery of our new vehicle in the dark and in a thunderstorm, late in the evening after spending hours at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on the date of purchase. When we first saw our vehicle in the daylight the next morning, we made several startling discoveries including a damaged front bumper, a large dead beetle wedged into the firewall and a torn window sticker stuffed into the glovebox with all of the federal disclosures and EPA disclosures missing. We immediately requested a reprint of the original window sticker along with all federal and EPA disclosures. When we finally received those disclosures almost two months later on XX/XX/2017, we also discovered proof of {$2600.00} in undisclosed charges tacked onto the price of our vehicle for add-ons that were never installed, including window tint. That missing window sticker that shows the MSRP inflated {$2600.00} to {$42000.00} is also attached.

Additionally, when we compared the attached Buyers Order Agreement pages printed at XXXX XXXX. on XX/XX/2017, we noticed that the rebate listed was only {$5000.00}. This is in direct contradiction to the attached E-mail message that we received from XXXX XXXX at XXXX earlier that same day, XX/XX/2017, at XXXX XXXX. promising Triple Savings {$8400.00}. This is the E-mail from XXXX XXXX that lured us into its dealership. In addition to overcharging us {$2600.00} for items that were never installed, XXXX XXXX failed to provide us {$3400.00} in promised savings that were used as inducement for purchase. XXXX XXXX owes us {$6100.00}
