Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX : Subject : Request for Immediate Reporting of Payments and Addressing Reporting Discrepancies I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my concern regarding the current reporting practices of my account. Specifically, I have observed a disparity in the timeliness of reporting payments to credit bureaus for payments made on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. It has come to my attention that payments, especially those made to bring my account current, are not being reported promptly. In contrast, delinquencies are reported immediately. This inconsistency is unfair and detrimental to my credit standing. I request that all payments, including those made to bring my account current, be reported to the credit bureaus immediately upon receipt. Accurate and timely reporting is crucial to ensure a fair reflection of my creditworthiness. I would like to request that this current payment information be updated and furnished to all three credit bureaus immediately. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your immediate action to rectify this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

My account with XXXX XXXX  XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX 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.

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 in XXXX 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. 


XXXX 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.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Upon conducting a recent investigation of my credit report, I discovered unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items that your agency has failed to ensure are reported accurately. This discovery has caused me severe distress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it is mandatory that all information on my credit report is 100 % accurate ( 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) ). The current reporting of these accounts is in violation of this requirement. I am attaching copies of all previous dispute letters sent regarding these inaccuracies for your reference. 

I request that your agency promptly investigates these discrepancies and takes necessary actions to ensure that my credit report reflects only accurate and verified information. If your agency can not substantiate the accuracy of these items, I demand their immediate removal from my credit history.
