XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/year> Urgent Demand for Immediate Correction of Inaccurate Reporting : Upon reviewing my Consumer Reports, I was enraged to find egregious inaccuracies regarding alleged late payments on an account where I have ALWAYS made punctual payments. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Consumer Reporting Agencies are REQUIRED BY LAW to ensure the HIGHEST degree of accuracy in reporting consumer information. I have NEVER missed a payment on the following account : [ XXXX ], [ XXXX ]. 
I DEMAND an IMMEDIATE and THOROUGH investigation into these blatant discrepancies within FOUR DAYS, as mandated by the FCRA. You are REQUIRED to provide undeniable evidence, such as detailed account statements, substantiating the alleged lateness of these payments. FAILURE to furnish such proof within the specified 4-day timeframe will lead to my INSISTENCE that these payments be corrected to reflect their accurate, ON-TIME status, in rigorous adherence to FCRA Section 611, which mandates accuracy and completeness in consumer reports.

I have consistently met my payment obligations ON TIME and WILL NOT TOLERATE this unacceptable situation. RECTIFY THIS IMMEDIATELY.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion 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, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing 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 : I made my payments on time. The payments were due on the XXXX of each month, and both payments were submitted on the XXXX of the respective months. I have included bank statements and payment confirmations to verify that the payments were made before the due dates. 
There appears to have been an internal error by XXXX XXXX, where the payments were not correctly processed or credited to my account on time, leading to these inaccurate late payment reports. 
Additionally, no notification or communication was sent to inform me of a late payment, which further supports that the reported delinquency is in error.

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion 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

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report. The Credit Bureaus stated that my account was properly investigated but how is that possible if the open date is inaccurate, the date last active is inaccurate, and the date last reported is not accurate? This is grounds for removal, they also violated my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681 section 602 A. Which States, I have the right to privacy.
15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) Section States : no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information or any other adverse item of information, other than records of conviction more than seven years. 
Also, the Credit Bureaus took more than 30 days to complete my investigation here are my certified mail tracking # 's XXXX ; XXXX ; XXXX. 
I've also submitted a complaint with the Attorney General 's Office. These collection agencies have violated my rights.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a formal dispute letter to TransUnion via XXXXcertified mail ( tracking # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). My letter contained a request to investigate negative items on my credit report that are reporting with discrepancies and inaccurate information, including a bankruptcy that lacks essential details, and incorrect personal information. To ensure that my identity could be verified, I included the necessary documents, such as a copy of my government-issued ID, Social Security card , and proof of address, in compliance with the requirements set forth by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
Despite giving TransUnion the legally required time frame to respond to my request, I did not receive any response. This disregard for my dispute violates my consumer rights under the FCRA, which mandates that credit bureaus must conduct a reasonable investigation and provide a response when consumers dispute the completeness or accuracy of items on their credit reports. 
As my request has been ignored, I feel my rights as a consumer have been violated, and my efforts to rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report have been disregarded. Under the FCRA, credit bureaus are required to conduct investigations when consumers dispute negative items and ensure that all information is 100 % accurate.

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified item listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct. 

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat this item is being reported correctly? Who verified this item? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. 

Since you claim youve verified the items listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the companies directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof.

I want to try again to make paypal understand why i think there is something wrong in the process of the amount that they are sayin i owe. this is in regards to the case no. XXXX that you have closed but i wanted to add something else becasue i dont get why paypal honored a debt to XXXX if my bank rejected the payment everysingle time. Isn't paypal in the middle and only f the bank aproves the payments than paypal honors it to the third party. 

I am very confused and in disbelief with both XXXX  and paypal. XXXX for not having refund policies of something as expensive as a XXXX XXXX dollar domain which i though was for XXXX dollars. in whos mind can a simple domain... not a recognized brand or anthing like this can cost XXXX XXXX dollars. I called immediatley as soon as i realized my mistake, not even XXXX minutes had gone by. 

then i called PayPal and then since i dont have this amount of money my banck rejected the funds. now i have a debt with paypal, don't even have the domain from XXXX which i dont want either way but if i dont have the product how can i have the debt? Why did paypal honor this payment to godaddy if the bank rejected the payment every time? one uses paypal to use more security measures and not all the contrary. 

thank you for your understanding.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally submit a complaint against XXXX regarding numerous violations associated with my consumer auto loan. My experiences with XXXX have been marked by deceptive practices and factual inaccuracies that have significantly impacted my financial standing and overall confidence in their services. 

Background of the Complaint I had an auto loan with XXXX that was charged off several years ago. Since that time, I have received multiple refund checks from XXXX for payments made on my account. However, these checks were issued long after the loan was charged off, raising concerns about the handling and crediting of my payments during the life of the loan. 
Deceptive Practices and Unfactual Responses Lack of Access to Information : XXXX claims to have sent me documents regarding changes to my consumer loan ; however, they deceptively removed my online access. Despite my repeated requests, they failed to physically send me any documents, statements, or loan documents of any kind until after the loan was charged off. They only provided documents via XXXX, which I was barred from accessing. 

Contradictory Business Practices : XXXX has claimed that they refuse to conduct further business with me, yet I continue to receive requests to apply for new credit cards. This inconsistency raises serious doubts about their stated intentions and business practices. 

Refunds for Misapplied Payments : XXXX has sent me refunds related to my auto loan and credit cards, which they mishandled. They failed to properly apply payments, mishandled disputes, and did not honor the final results of their fraud investigations. The numerous refund checks I received years after closing my accounts indicate that XXXX was at fault, despite their accusations against me of improper actions. 

Request for Investigation Given the circumstances described above, I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate XXXX 's practices in managing my auto loan account. I believe that their actions may violate consumer protection laws and regulations designed to ensure fair and transparent lending practices. 

Conclusion I appreciate your attention to this matter and hope that your investigation will help ensure that XXXX adheres to the legal and ethical standards expected of financial institutions. If you require any additional information or documentation to support my complaint, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Thank you for your assistance in addressing this important issue.
