My accounts 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 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 1002 and It was never provided. 

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

My data was stolen in XXXX different security breaches- XXXX from my bank XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the other from Equifaxs Data Breach. As a result when I looked at my report on XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX I noticed an account I never opened from something called XXXX XXXX. I disputed this account and even filed an identity theft report with the FTC regarding this, Equifax says the account is valid. When Ive called XXXX XXXX  they say they cant assist me because I dont know any of the security questions and the number on file does not match mine, Ive told them its not my account but they do not care. I even mailed a copy of the Identity Theft report and everything to Equifaxs dispute mailing po box last week, but today they said their review is complete and they decided its my account. On the Equifax page it said if I need to make a complaint to come here so thats what Im doing, please help.
