I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a late payment on my credit report by credit bureaus. The presence of this late payment inaccurately reflects my payment history, as I have consistently paid my bills on time. This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B. According to this law, consumers have the right to dispute and seek correction of billing errors, which include inaccuracies in payment reporting.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax XXXX a late payment reported by XXXX  XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Made on Time : According to my records, the payment in question was made on time. Attached, I have included my bank statements showing that the payment was processed and cleared before the due date. 
Clerical Error : It appears there may have been a clerical error in how the payment was recorded by the creditor. I have verified the payment confirmation from my online banking records, which shows the payment date and the amount, indicating the account was paid in full on time. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Truist Bank charged me ( 9 ) overdraft fees within a 2 day period {$36.00} a piece. They also charged me a transaction fee {$75.00}. In which I have never heard of before. These fees caused me to be in debt- {$550.00}. {$300.00} fees from the bank alone. This is clearly a violation of Electronic Fund transfer Act. I demand a refund of all illegal transactions.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (PA)

I am filing this complaint against CAPITAL ONE Financial Services regarding a serious billing error, mail fraud, and trust malfeasance related to my credit card account. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue directly with CAPITAL ONE, I have not received any response to my written dispute letters. On XX/XX/ 2024, I sent a formal letter to CAPITAL ONE disputing a credit balance error on my credit card statements dated XX/XX/2024 XX/XX/2024, in accordance with 15 USC 1666B ( 1 ). Despite my attempts to resolve this matter, CAPITAL ONE has failed to acknowledge or correct the error. Additionally, I have sent XXXX follow-up letters, most recently on XX/XX/2024, and have not received any response.CAPITAL ONE sent a DEMAND FOR PAYMENT OF DEBT letter to me via U.S. Mail , which I believe contains false and misleading statements designed to defraud me, in violation of 18 USC 1341 . I requested proof of the services performed and documentation to support their claim, but CAPITAL ONE has not provided any such proof. CAPITAL ONEs continued refusal to respond to my lawful billing dispute and its failure to produce the necessary documentation raises concerns of trust malfeasance. As a consumer, I relied on CAPITAL ONE to act in good faith and fulfill their obligations under federal law. Their inaction demonstrates a breach of trust and fiduciary responsibility, especially given the substantial financial implications.CAPITAL ONEs actions, or lack thereof, appear to violate multiple federal laws : 1. 15 USC 1666B ( 1 ) : The Fair Credit Billing Act requires creditors to acknowledge a billing dispute within 30 days and resolve the issue within two billing cycles ( but no more than 90 days ). CAPITAL ONE has failed to meet these obligations. 
2. 18 USC 1341 : CAPITAL ONE may have committed mail fraud by sending a fraudulent demand for payment through the U.S. Postal Service, which includes misleading information designed to collect an improper debt. 
3. 15 USC 1666d : I am not liable for the disputed amount during the investigation, yet CAPITAL ONE has not responded to my requests, and I am concerned about potential negative impacts on my credit. 
4. Trust Malfeasance : CAPITAL ONE has violated the trust relationship between creditor and consumer by not acting in good faith to resolve my dispute. Their failure to provide supporting documentation and their lack of communication further suggest intentional malfeasance.

I have attempted to find contact details for all three credit reporting agencies to send in secure documentation proving my change of name. All three purposely ensure no email addresses or fax numbers are available on their websites. They each require that I send physical copies unencrypted through the post to get my name changed. Given the poor handling of customer data in recent leaks surely something can be done to bring these companies into the XXXX century. I'm even happy to use a fax, if they so desperately need to relive the XXXX. I was there, it wasn't great. 

Our lives depend on good credit scores tracked by agencies we did not opt in to using. The very least they could do is make managing our data possible. Phone calls to the agencies lead to a phone menu loop. Clicking on " contact us '' pages lead to a menu loop ( even the links that say click here for email ). Digital document uploads mysteriously fail every despite being well under the file size limit and being a supported ( allegedly ) filed type. Somebody needs to give these animals a swift kick in the taint to get them back on track. Any help this office can provide would be appreciated.

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove any items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.
