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

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX 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 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 XXXX  days before the payment due date. 


XXXX XXXX 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 XXXX  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 have previously paid this debt twice but I failed to keep documentation. I once again have received another attempt. I believe I am a victim of an attempted scam. I did request documentation the first two times but eventually was unable to reach any resolution so it was just {$150.00} or so and I paid it ( twice now ). I think as long as I pay them they just wait six months and then start again.

I trust this correspondence finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a troubling discrepancy within my credit report concerning late payments associated with my accounts. Upon meticulous review of my report, I have identified instances where late payments have been inaccurately recorded, adversely affecting my credit standing. Upon contacting the companies linked to these accounts, they acknowledged a fault on their part. They have committed to rectifying the error by updating and amending my accounts to accurately reflect my payment history. They attributed these inaccuracies to a system glitch that led to the erroneous reporting of late payments. It is perplexing to me that while other credit bureaus have already rectified the status of these accounts, your bureau continues to report these late payments. This disparity in reporting raises doubts regarding the verification protocols employed by your bureau to ensure the precision of reported information.
