Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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.

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.

( CREDITOR NAME ) 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!

RE : Error in Reporting for Loan # XXXX for XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX We found an error in the credit reporting on our mortgage and submitted a dispute via Experian and XXXX. We uploaded appropriate documents to their websites, but then someone at XXXX XXXX responded to their inquiries that the information being reported to the bureaus was accurate. It is not. 

I then sent an email to your XXXX XXXX XXXX Servicing Help email address, and received a prompt email response. The case was escalated to the Servicing Help department, and an agent called me back on XX/XX/XXXX. Im a bit confused why an agent called, as he basically said that he understood there was an inaccuracy that was negatively impacting us, but then said I cant do anything about whats being reported to the Credit Bureau. I am hopeful that you can correct this error/inconsistency in reporting. 

We original mortgage was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, with an opening balance of {$200000.00}. 

We modified this mortgage, due to the pandemic, effective XX/XX/XXXX, with a balance of {$190000.00}. 

XXXX XXXX is reporting this mortgage to the credit bureaus with an opening date of XX/XX/XXXX, and with an opening balance of {$190000.00}. 

Obviously, XXXX XXXX is reporting the original opening date with the modified opening balance. This is NOT accurate... and that is a problem because the FICO algorithm includes a scoring that compares the opening date and opening amount to the amount that has been paid off. With XXXXXXXX XXXX current reporting of the earlier opening date and the later opening balance, the algorithm results in a score that implies it took us ten years to make one year 's worth of payments. This reporting is negatively impacting our credit scores due to the inconsistency. Either XXXX needs to report the original date and the original balance TOGETHER, or they need to report the modification date and the modified balance TOGETHER... but not this mix and match. 

Could you please intervene and ask XXXXXXXX XXXX to correct the records that are being reported to the credit bureaus to reflect the accurate information? The information needs to be corrected in the reporting for both XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding unauthorized accounts appearing on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to have these accounts removed, they persist, causing significant damage to my financial reputation and well-being. The accounts in question are in clear violation of 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes. It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

I see some items on my credit report that I dont know. It looks like someone might have stolen my identity because I didnt approve these accounts. Ive talked about this before, and now Im asking for these accounts to be taken off my report quickly. Having these accounts on my report is causing me stress. They dont show my real credit history or how I handle money, and its been hard dealing with this. If we cant fix this, Im ready to go to court to protect my rights and find a solution. These wrong items on my credit report are a big problem for me. Theyre stopping me from reaching important money goals, like buying a house and supporting my family. I hope we can fix this problem soon.

" 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. List all accounts : "

Re ; loan # XXXX Over the past years Nation Star assumed servicing of my home mortgage from XXXX ( XXXX ), who assumed it from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, who assumed it from XXXX who was the original bank on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. XXXX invited me to a loan mod out reach event in XXXX RI years ago when they serviced loan in which they identified mine as " preditory '' however were unable to help me after it was determined the " investors '' didnt participate in a program of relief for my product ...??? 
Over the years since XXXX no servicer has honored my adjustable rate rider terms which was to drop my rate annualy & calculated an inflated arrears amt since I fell behind in XXXX that year. This inflated balance has also effected numerous in house loan mod denials as it throws off ratios. Last month Nation Star falsely claimed {$350000.00} amount in arrears on my loan mortgage ( if determined to be valid ) is incorrect. At time I fell behind in XXXX XXXX my principal was around $ XXXX & now I 'm informed its $ XXXX along with this additional $ XXXX in arrears! 
In past servicers such as XXXX & your own co. had indicated the wrong interest rate at 6.75 % beyond XXXX XXXX. My rate was to be fixed for 5 years per my adjustable rate rider originally signed with XXXX. Effective XXXX XXXX it was to have adjusted to 3.75 %, 2.875 % on XXXX XXXX, 2.75 % XXXX XXXX, & 3 % XXXX XXXX. Bank XXXX acknowledged the XXXX rate adjustment in XXXX prior to XXXX servicing the loan. Sls had acknowledged the rate however it was not consistently correct on statements nor in calculations as with your co. Although they now finally indicate the correct rate is being applied currently ; I retained a CPA who can not substantiate a past even less recent aggregate amount. In the past I had an Attorney, a CPA, & myself requested a review of this matter as well as a corrected amortization schedule. I no longer can afford to pay an attorney & CPA to make sense of the aggregate as its a waste of time & the Bank is unable to provide adequate info nor substantiate past inflated amounts. 
Ive requested they rectify this issue & recalculate this aggregate as well as provide an amortization otherwise I 'm trying to secure a loan mod on an inflated erroneous amount. In past I 've been denied numerous loan mods for for reasons related to insufficient income or not enough disposable income ; which this inflated aggregate is effecting the ratios on. I was most recently denied a few days ago & once again am facing foreclosure. Please Help me & my family. " Thank You ''

My attorney XXXX XXXX sent Nationstar Mortgage a letter over a year ago demanding them to itemize everything from when I cured the default because they claim I still owe {$600.00} for leagal fees they claim they paid. I cured the default and the loan was assumed. My attorney XXXX XXXX said the amount I paid to cure the default included all fees and peneltys so he was curious as to why out of the blue I owe {$600.00}. XXXX XXXX sent Nationstar Mortgage a letter demanding they itemize and prove I owe the {$600.00}. It has been over a year since he sent that letter and Nationstar has not responded.

I hope this correspondence finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an anomaly in my credit report that requires urgent resolution. 

In XXXX and XXXX of XXXX, I experienced the unexpected occurrence of missed payments with XXXX XXXX XXXX, despite maintaining an unblemished record of timely payments over the course of five years. These isolated incidents were entirely uncharacteristic of my financial behavior and stemmed from a technical glitch within the banking system, which affected the scheduled auto-draft payments. 

As a diligent and responsible borrower, I had diligently ensured that all my payments were set up on auto draft to guarantee punctual and consistent fulfillment of my financial obligations. However, due to circumstances beyond my control, these two payments failed to process as intended, resulting in an inadvertent deviation from my otherwise exemplary payment history. 

Understanding the significant impact of these inaccuracies on my creditworthiness, particularly in the context of my current endeavor to purchase a home, I am earnestly seeking your assistance in rectifying this matter. It is imperative that these erroneous entries be promptly removed from my credit report to restore the accuracy of my credit profile and alleviate any adverse effects on my credit score. 

I am prepared to provide any necessary documentation or evidence to support my claim and facilitate the expeditious resolution of this issue. Your prompt attention to this matter and assistance in ensuring the integrity of my credit report would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you for your time and consideration. I eagerly await your response and the opportunity to address this discrepancy effectively.
