" 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 each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

I have XXXX account with XXXX that had XXXX purchases for XXXX to be paid on different days with XXXX. I was recently unemployed-Laid off from my job, I spoke to a representative at XXXX  and advised him that I obtained a job and I was going to pay on the loans when I received my first paycheck on XX/XX/2023 and could not make my payments for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX until then. I eventually paid XXXX of the purchases and brought the account to current on XX/XX/2023 and paid the other XXXX purchases to current on XX/XX/2023. However, XXXX reported to credit reporting bureaus on XX/XX/2023 that I owed on all XXXX of these purchases and listed this as XXXX different loans on my credit and bought my credit score down XXXX points. I received no good credit when I was paying Affirm on time, however, when I got behind 90 days, they reported the account XXXX times as XXXX different negative entries instead of just reporting to my credit for XXXX total accumulative balance of all XXXX purchases. They just destroyed 20 years of building good credit over XXXX small increments of XXXX purchases for XXXX bad account. I can't believe the credit bureaus allowed this and I feel this has violated the fair credit reporting act. And the amounts they reported do not even match what was owed. XXXX of the purchases was paid before they even reported it XXXX times. If anything, there should only have been XXXX reporting for XXXX loans. The XXXX credit bureaus are a for-profit company and is allowing companies like XXXX to destroy people lives and XXXX XXXX by allowing them to list XXXX XXXX account XXXX times. This has to be illegal, and I will be seeking legal action because I believe XXXX violated my fair credit rights. I want these entries removed off my credit and my score back to current status. This XXXX company took my credit down from good to poor after 15 years of building when they know how difficult it is for XXXX Americans to gain a good XXXX XXXX with all the systematic laws against us to keep our credit poor to pay high interest rates. This would not have happened to someone else of another race. This was done intentionally to destroy my credit worthiness at such an financially hardship point in my life. The account wasn't even past due 120 days which is the time listed that they will report to credit bureaus through a third part collection agency. XXXX violated FCRA and I seeking resolution asap.

My account with XXXX XXXX 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.

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. 


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 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

Consumer complaint received 2019-08-06
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (NJ)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I participated in a balance transfer promotion offered by my Chase credit card, in the amount of {$7300.00}. This balance was to be interest-free until XX/XX/XXXX, separate from any other purchase balances I incurred thereafter. 

Over the course of the subsequent cycle, I separately had purchases and matching returns at XXXX and XXXX XXXX in substantial amounts. Specifically, in the XX/XX/XXXX statement, I had {$5300.00} in return credits from these merchants, that should have been matched up to net against prior posted charges from these merchants XXXX which would have been part of my current balance at that time ). 

However, it appears that Chase has chosen to disregard the already posted charges from these merchants, because they were not yet included in a *closing-statement* balance, and regard the credits from these same merchants as " payments '', which when applied to the *prior* statement balance, was considered an excess payment and therefore a reduction of my promotional balance. When the now un-netted charge from these merchants was left without its corresponding credit on the closing statement, the result is a ballooning of my " purchase '' balance, subject to a 18.24 % rate, despite the fact that I made no or minimal net purchases ( I typically do not carry a balance, outside of the promotional balance ). 

As of the current statement, the balances in these 2 categories have essentially reversed, I now have a purchase balance of {$7200.00}, and a promotional balance of just {$1300.00}, again, despite the fact that I did not make net purchases in anywhere near that magnitude in the cycle, nor did I make net payments of several XXXX dollars. 

In a simple case, if Chase 's behavior is permitted to stand, if I have {$10000.00} in non-interest accruing promotional balance, but buy and and return an item for {$5000.00} *within* a given billing period, the merchant 's credit will immediately deduct from the promotional balance as an " over-payment '' based on the last closing statement balance, and by the next statement, I will have a promotional balance of {$5000.00} and a purchase balance ( accruing at 18 % ) of {$5000.00}. Essentially, a purchase and return need to occur in different billing cycles to *not* reduce a promotional balance. 

I find this absurd, deceptive, and likely a purposeful attempt to circumvent the spirit of the Credit CARD Act of 2009. A purchase and matching credit from a merchant is not a " payment '', and separating them in this way to opaquely increase the bank 's fees, when clearly I intended to keep my promotional balance untouched ( I had taken out the promotional balance just 2 months prior with 10 months in the interest-free term remaining ), is outrageous and hopefully subject to sanction by the CFPB. 

Many thanks for your time and attention. 

Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!
