My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

RE : You Violated The United States Code Law 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b Permissible purposes of consumer reports I never gave you any written consent to report anything on my consumer report.

As a consumer by law these accounts on this letter must be deleted immediately or i will seek monetary damages in small claims court in my city and state. Also we already involved and sent this letter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Attorney Generals Office, Better Business Bureau, and Federal Trade Commission.

1. Under penalty of perjury I swear this account is false and misleading XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Please remove it from my credit report. 




I am aware that you have been sending out form letters in response to many of the disputes and challenges that consumers have submitted, regardless of the specific information that they have provided. This is ILLEGAL, as each dispute and challenge must be addressed INDIVIDUALLY and on its own merits. My letters were created by software thats created for everyone.

If you dont process my letters, you are VIOLATING 15 U.S. Code 5 1681. Keep in mind, you are not allowed to delay processing letters from consumers based on the assumption that help from a third party, may be available. This is NOT a legal exception. 

I am the AUTHOR of any letters you receive with my name on them. Either I or my advisors wrote them with my FULL KNOWLEDGE and CONSENT. I am aware that there is no law that says you need to provide a POWER OF ATTORNEY in order to delay processing letters from a consumer. IF YOU DO NOT PROCESS MY LETTERS IN A TIMELY MANNER, I WILL consider it to be an INTENTIONAL disregard for my rights.

This credit reporting agency deleted the address that was my actual current address and left a XXXX XXXX XXXX on my address which is in fact not the accurate address I told them to keep.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company (FL)

On the prior complaint Freedom Mortgage claimed to payoff my pass due amount of {$21000.00} funds with XXXX funds received. I believed the XX/XX/22 response when my account balance was lower on my credit report, but 2 months later- I'm led to believe it never happened. I never received the canceled VA standalone in amount of {$21000.00}, nor evidence they corrected my account as they stated. Instead, it appears they sent this balance to a collection agency called XXXX XXXX XXXX and the {$21000.00} that XXXX sent to payoff my past due balance and previously showed as " unapplied funds '' on my XXXX mortgage statement, apparently is now missing funds. Please investigate this mortgage company for fraud. They continue to be involved in illegal activities to hurt Veteran homeowners like myself. They have sent my personal information to a company who should not have my information. I will be contacting an attorney next if this is not corrected. This is aggravating my XXXX.
