My account with those creditors 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 in those account 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

I've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary 21-day notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

Subject : Urgent Request to Rectify Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Dear Sir/Ma, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring your immediate attention to a serious matter regarding my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I believe that your current actions are in direct violation of several sections of the FCRA, as outlined below : Violation of 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A : The FCRA guarantees my right to privacy, and it is evident that your recent actions have infringed upon this right. Violation of 5 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : The FCRA clearly states that a consumer reporting agency must not furnish an account without my explicit written instruction. It has come to my attention that this provision has been disregarded. Violation of 15 U.S.C 1666B : The FCRA specifies that a creditor can not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. I have evidence indicating that you have incorrectly categorized a payment as late. Given the gravity of these violations, I hereby request your immediate attention and action to rectify this situation. I insist that you promptly remove the late payment and any associated negative reports from my account. Furthermore, I kindly request that you update my account in accordance with the provisions set forth in the FCRA. I trust that you understand the urgency and importance of addressing this matter without delay. Failure to comply with the FCRA may result in legal consequences, and I would prefer to resolve this matter amicably and swiftly. I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue and expect a written response from you confirming the necessary actions taken to remedy the violations mentioned above. I look forward to a favorable resolution and a restored credit profile that reflects my accurate financial standing. Thank you for your immediate attention to this urgent matter.

Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.
