Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX 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 in 60 days 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.

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!

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

To Whom it may concern, I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate late payment information reported on my XXXX account ( Account XXXX : XXXX ) in my credit report. After thoroughly reviewing the report, I have identified multiple discrepancies regarding the payment history, which appear to be inconsistent and inaccurate across different reporting dates. 

The discrepancies I have noticed are as follows : Date Last Payment : The dates listed across bureaus ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) do not match, leading to potential inaccuracies in payment status and account reporting. 
Payment Status and Account Balance : The account status is shown as Paid, indicating that the balance has been cleared, yet it continues to reflect a 120-day late payment history inaccurately. 
Last Reported Date : Various last reported dates ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ) create inconsistencies, further emphasizing that the account data may be inaccurately represented.

These discrepancies are not only confusing but may have a negative impact on my credit score and financial profile. I kindly request that you review the account information with XXXX to verify the payment status and delete any inaccurate or inconsistent late payment details from my credit report. 

Please update my records to reflect an accurate status for this account. I would appreciate it if you could complete this review and inform me of your findings within 30 days, as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Should you require any additional information or documentation to facilitate this process, feel free to contact me using the details provided above.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Additionally, the reporting of an account that has been marked as a charge-off with a balance of {$0.00} raises further questions about the legitimacy of this claim, suggesting a potential lack of adherence to required practices in debt collection and reporting.
