I am writing to formally dispute certain adverse items on my credit report, which I believe are inaccurate and were made without my consent. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 1681b, a credit report can only be accessed under permissible purposes, and any inquiries that do not meet these criteria should be removed.

I did not authorize these inquiries, and they do not comply with the permissible purposes outlined in Section 1681b of the FCRA. Therefore, I request the immediate removal of ALL unauthorized hard inquiries from my credit report.

15 USC 6802 b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF THIS RIGHT!

Because of the mistakes on my credit report, I have been wrongfully denied credit recently for a home loan, which was highly embarrassing, has negatively impacted my lifestyle, as well as is now depleting my personal finances.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

I have sent an affidavit of truth referring to XXXX and have yet to receive remedy despite sending a proper remittance on XX/XX/2023 to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, North Carolina zip code XXXX. The bill was for about {$4100.00} and I have another for about {$1000.00} but this is fraud and I have pointed that out in my affidavit so I am confused as to why BANK OF AMERICA is attempting to cause me mental anguish. According to these regulations, under the terms in which I agreed to in good faith, I am a victim of deceptive acts. The bank sends me a statement rather than a bill and carefully orchestrated this to make me believe that I have an obligation to pay with my hard earned money when in fact I can have it taken from the security account

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 to be removed/updated.

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.

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!

Company: MOHELA (NY)

I had my student loans consolidated with Mohela to apply for the XXXX. I received paperwork from Mohela on XX/XX/XXXX saying my consolidation loan was disbursed. When I attempt to fill out the XXXX  application it says I have not made the required 120 payments and I cant complete the application. I know this is wrong, I have been a XXXX  since XXXX, and making payments the whole time. I need to contact someone at Mohela to fix my account so I complete the XXXX  application and the deadline is XX/XX/XXXX. I have tried to call multiple times, I have taken 2 1/2 days off of work in an attempt to get a hold of them. I am taking tomorrow off in an attempt to get a hold of them. In one of XXXX calls today my wait time was an estimated 72 minutes, after 98 minutes ( waiting to talk to someone ) my call was dropped. I have been trying to get a hold of Mohela to fix my account for a month. 

I have left a message at the help Center on Mohelas website asking for help. They have not responded. 

Thank you for any help you can provide, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with balance transfer
Company: U.S. BANCORP (CA)

I did a balance transfer to US bank credit card while back by a paying fee and received the XXXX percent interest offer which is scheduled to expire on XX/XX/XXXX. I never missed any payments and was on schedule to pay the balance off by the scheduled expiration date. However, during the most recent billing statement period I had to pay for something so I charged this very card {$2700.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and because I wanted to avoid paying high interest, I made payment of {$2700.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. This transaction occurred during same billing cycle period so I thought everything was fine. To my surprise, when I received the monthly statement, US bank credited the payment of {$2700.00} towards my balance transfer amount and charged me 20+ % interest fee on the purchase I made on XX/XX/XXXX. When I called the customer service at US bank, they told me any payments I make would go towards paying off any balance with lower interest rates first and there's nothing they can do about it. I think this is kind of unfair business practice because consumer should be given a choice to make payments towards balances from credit cards especially transaction occur within same billing cycle period and balance transfer offer wasn't expired. Hope you can resolve this issue and further create better a policy to protect consumers. Thank you.

As I know the creditor didn't notify me with a statement 21 days before, so there should be no late payments on this account.

The items below should all be updated to be paid as agreed upon in my consumer report.
