Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

I am writing to bring to your attention an issue regarding the reporting of a late payment account on my credit report, which I believe may be in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 USC 1681. According to the FCRA, by law I have the right to challenge any inaccurate information on my credit report.

15 U.S.C. Sec 1681i ( a ) states that if you can not provide proof then the account must be deleted especially when it is inaccurate. I am requesting that this CREDIT UNION 1 account gets deleted. Ive contacted the three major bureaus to investigate every piece of information on the account listed below and I still have not had a proper investigation launched. In addition, in accordance with the FCRA CREDIT UNION 1 has violated my rights : 1. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A, states I have the right to privacy : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions 2. Per, " 15 USC 1681 A and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 7 ) A- Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, ( I ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer.

I did not give written permission to have these accounts furnished on my report. According to the FCRA 15 USC 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate. Once again, I am demanding a correction to my credit report by this item being deleted and removed from my credit report.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (NC)

Chase has been involved in numerous attempts to withhold funds that are rightfully owed. 
When I logged into my credit account, a different address was showing. I find this odd because all the letters claiming to be from the executive office come to the right address. I believe the letters that I've been receiving are fraudulent. I have attached an image of what address I saw when I logged in. 

Please note Chase recently denied a dispute to my card from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. All the proof had been there. I also showed proof of the company agreeing they would send a refund by XXXX. I didn't trust a refund by XXXX, so my request was to have it reissued to my card. 

Chase denied the dispute with all that information. When I filled a North Carolina Department of Justice complaint against the company the company agreed to issue the refund back to my card. 

I say this to say that I'm aware Chase is illegally denying funds and allowing culprits to escape without accountability.

The calls stopped for a few days. I started receiving calls from a different phone and it turned out to be the same collection agency. On XX/XX/year>, I spoke to a different representative and informed them I spoke with someone from their agency on XX/XX/year> and requested a debt validation letter be sent to me. They said it was sent via email. I informed them again, I haven't received any letters from them via email and to please send the letter to my physical address. They agreed and that ended the conversation. I have not received any letters from the collection via email or US mail as of this complaint. The first representative stated they sent it via email on XX/XX/year>, however, the collection was reported to the credit agencies on XX/XX/year> prior to my request for verification of the debt.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IL)

My account with 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 the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eXXXX. 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 in months that are reported late 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 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

I noticed a late payment on my credit report that was 30 days late, which I never intended to escalate to that point. I have been unemployed for quite some time, homeless without a car, a place to live, or food to eat, and I have asked for help in every way I could without success. I explained in the late payment letter that if this Goodwill Courtesy is not granted, I will be unable to obtain a place, a job, or a car, and I am familiar with credit reporting because I previously worked in the industry. However, I have never paid late, and my income has been below the poverty level of the State of Florida, only receive income under the table until I can receive stable employment and I've been on my own since I was XXXX, and I have been in and out of several group homes. I was evicted from my home and had my car repossessed due to a lack of income. I request that this late payment be removed from the attached credit report as well as from the other two ( if it has not already been reported ). I have not had steady employment since XX/XX/year>, and I've been looking for work. My only source of income is food stamps, which barely cover my basic needs. I have been denied unemployment benefits, no help from anyone, and all of the resources I contacted require me to be employed.
