I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days.

On XX/XX/19, I wanted to pay off my credit card balance. I logged into my account and paid off my full account balance of {$630.00} that was due on XX/XX/XXXX. Despite paying my balance down to, XXXX  I got a bill stating I owed {$3.00} intrest. How does one accrue interest on a XXXX  balance on a card that's closed? 

Furthermore, Macy 's has been reporting this {$3.00} balance as late on my credit and now it's reported as charged of as bad debt. I've called Customer Service several times to try and resolve this issue, but I've been unsuccessful. My last call was yesterday ( XX/XX/19 ) and the customer Service representative offered to waive the {$3.00} balance, but not to update the wrong information they reported to my credit file. My request to speak with a supervisor was denied. I was told no supervisor was available and the representative said she had to disconnect the call.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX  and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 XXXX and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
