My request is straightforward : I am asking that my UCC-1 financial transactions be added to my credit profile, in the same manner as any public record trade line reported by a credit bureau or data furnisher. 

I do not understand the basis for your indication of possible fraudulent activity, as there is nothing fraudulent in the information I have provided. Please explain what specifically raised this concern and why it affects the simple addition of my UCC-1 filings as public records to my report. 

To reiterate, I am asking for my UCC-1 filings, which are public records, to be treated as credit transactions and displayed on my profile, as would be done for any other trade line. This is not a dispute, but a request for the inclusion of accurate, relevant information. 

Please confirm receipt of this letter and inform me of any additional steps required to fulfill my request. I appreciate your attention to this matter.

My account withXXXX XXXX XXXX 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.

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. 

XXXX  XXXX XXXX  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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
