In XXXX XXXX I became unable to pay my mortgage due to the Pandemic and completed a forbearance application. I also had to file a federal court case against both XXXX and XXXX for breach of contract, Respa Violations, Negligence, and etc. 

I have disputed the inaccurate reporting of my payment history with XXXX, Experian, XXXX and XXXX, yet these inaccuracies still remail and continue to cause me and my family great financial hardship. 

XXXX are in direct violation of the FCRA and CFPB regulations as they are knowingly reporting inaccurate and inconsistent information about my payment History. I am also attaching a letter received from XXXX confirming Respa violations and misapplication of my payments received and wrongful payment history reported. 

For example, XXXX and XXXX show me as current in XXXX of XXXX ( which I was ) However, Experian is reporting me as XXXX delinquent for XXXX of XXXX. XXXX is also wrongfully holding a check from my home insurance company to finish the repair of my home as they said that I was not current on my mortgage which I was and I am attaching the letter to prove so. 

Also in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX XXXX and Experian show me as 30 days delinquent and XXXX is reporting me as 60 days delinquent on each occurence. 

Lastly, when I applied for the forebearance, per the Cares Act, XXXX should have not been reporting negative items to the credit bureaus. 

I am under so much stress and financial strain and these negative marks are affecting my ability to get funds to help me take care of my family in my time of need. 

I have disputed these inaccuracies on several occasions with XXXX XXXX Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. I kindly ask that these negative marks be removed immediately from my credit reports.

Subject : Formal Complaint to Remove Late Payment from Credit Report I am writing in response to your recent communication dated XX/XX/year> regarding my previous dispute. Despite your assertion that everything is accurate, I must insist that the information in question remains incorrect, and there is a clear violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) As per Section 611 of the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), I am exercising my right to dispute the accuracy of this information. I request that you investigate this matter and remove the incorrect late payment entry from my credit report.

FCRA Section 623 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ) Additionally, according to Section 623 of the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ), information furnishers are required to provide accurate information. The creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX, has failed to meet this obligation by reporting a late payment that did not occur. Therefore, I request that you promptly contact AMERICAN XXXXXXXX XXXX to verify this information and correct my credit report accordingly. It is your legal duty to verify this information with the original creditors and delete or correct any unverifiable information within the 30-day timeframe. However, since it has been over 30 days since my initial request and no corrections have been made, I am giving you a final deadline of 15 days to resolve this matter.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NY)

A Capital One card was opened in my name in XXXX of XXXX. It was never reported to my credit and it bypassed my credit monitoring. I found out when I received a letter in XX/XX/XXXX that I was past due. Capital one has received multiple documents from me proving my own identity and showing charges, bank accounts, phone numbers and email addresses that are not mine yet they continue to say I am responsible for the amount owed, as well as now have reported it to the credit bureau after over a year which caused my credit to drop significantly. It was added only after the account was closed back in XXXX.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I was offered a business credit card for my XXXX, with a {$25000.00} limit. Upon using the card in early XXXX, I noticed a major increase in credit utilization and a drastic drop in my personal credit score, from XXXX to the XXXX. 

Furious, I contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX to inquire why this business credit card was being reported on my personal credit report. I was not a personal guarantor for this account, and as such, it should not appear on my personal credit file. Despite my efforts to resolve the matter, no corrective action has been taken as of XX/XX/XXXX. 

This error has severely damaged my business as a real estate investor, preventing me from making new property purchases and forcing me to accept higher interest rates. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), business accounts should not impact personal credit unless specific terms, such as personal guarantees, apply. I request the immediate removal of this account from my personal credit report, as it is negatively affecting my personal and business financial standing.

My account with EXPERIAN was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. 


EXPERIAN 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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

I hope you're doing well. I've run into a bit of a problem. While going through my credit report, I noticed some things that don't seem quite right, and it appears my identity have been stolen online. My nephew, who's studying XXXX XXXX, helped me out by finding a way to check if my XXXX emails were involved in this breach. To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these accounts. It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about and take immediate actions.
