Closed my XXXX credit card account due to fraudulent charges and non usage of card in XXXX. I was informed by mail that my account was closed. I assumed it was done with, as I have not used that card and did not plan to activate any accounts with this company. 
Upon checking my credit score I noticed there was a late payment on a past due balance of over {$100.00}. Called XXXX  customer service and I was told there was a {$19.00} balance for a second user activation fee. I explained the situation and the agent knocked off the late fees. I have paid the account in full, I have never been late paying my credit cards. So this is frustrating that because of that issue my credit score took a hit. I asked why I was not sent a letter of the past due balance, he said it was sent to my email that is no longer in use. I would like to know why 3 months later Im still dealing with an account that hasnt fully closed and why its marked on my credit report as late. How did {$19.00} balloon into $ XXXX? I would like this account closed, I am not sure why I am still able to log into this account as of today XX/XX/23. When it should not even be active. I refuse to speak to another customer service agent as the information given to me does not explain why this an account that is almost impossible to close. I have not used this card in over a year. On my credit report it is marked as 30 days past due. Which makes absolutely no sense to me XXXX  months later.

Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 4-5 months.
