I wish to underscore that the inclusion of inaccurately reported late payment remarks on my accounts not only raises significant concerns but also represents a blatant violation of the regulations delineated in the 15 USC 1666. This statute, an integral component of the Fair Credit Billing Act, specifically aims to safeguard consumers against unjust billing practices and mandates the accurate reporting of payment histories. Each payment associated with these accounts has been diligently and promptly rendered within the specified timeframes. Therefore, any deviation from this precise reporting not only undermines my financial integrity but also contravenes the legal protections enshrined within this statute. It is imperative to promptly rectify this situation to ensure compliance with the law and uphold the rights of consumers.

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 am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

I am writing to dispute the delinquency of payments on my account. I woke up this morning, XX/XX/2023 to a XXXX hit to my credit score over a charge of {$120.00} that I am just now finding out has been assessed to me since XXXX. I spoke to a representative at XXXX that claimed they had sent me letters to indicate my balance that was due to two parking tickets that had been assessed directly to my car. I have never had a ticket assessed directly to my car in XXXX years of leasing, so this is new to me as well. 


XXXX also claimed they had called me twice since XXXX to let me know but could not leave a voicemail due to regulatory laws in my state. If they couldnt leave a voicemail and I have not actually been receiving collection notices, how am I to know that I owe money that would ultimately result in such a significant penalty? Also, the account shows my balance is only 18 days overdue, so if these charges have been assessed since XXXX, wouldnt it show a longer delinquency? 


Nevertheless I have since been paying my car balance down regularly with no actual communications to me that I had been delinquent. 


I have attached proof from my bank account and with XXXX XXXX that I have been paying down the balance of my lease monthly at the beginning of every month and have been in good standing this entire time. I also am hoping that my overall good standing with my credit/finances can be taken into consideration at this time. I have never been late with a credit card payment, student loan payment in XXXX years, I have leased 4 different cars with XXXX and have never missed a payment there either. 


I believe this has been a miscommunication over a seemingly small amount of money that I would have paid had I been properly notified of the charges. I have attached payment of the outstanding bill as well. I have worked my entire adult life to maintain a good credit score in hopes to buy a house, and I am hoping this small issue does not set me back and this hit to my credit score can be removed and my original credit score can be restored.

Thank you so much for hearing my dispute. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
