XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Late Payment : XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : The payment reported as late as XX/XX/XXXX was made on time, as evidenced by my bank statements and payment confirmations. Despite providing this information in my initial dispute, the error has not been corrected. 
Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), section 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ), creditors are required to provide clear and accurate information regarding the terms of the credit. If the late payment reported does not align with the terms initially agreed upon, it warrants removal.

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (TX)

I have the XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit card. I'm suppose to get reward points for payments and purchases. I haven't received reward points on the last 3 statements. I think it's because I stopped making purchases on the card in XX/XX/year> because I'm working to pay the card off. I should still be getting reward points for the payments I have made. I have called about this issue 3 times. I was told on two different occasions that there was a glitch and the last time I called in the agent hung up on me because I couldn't get my card number fast enough. He could have found my account by using my phone number or getting the last 4 of my SSN. It's not a lot of money but it's reward points I have earned.

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

In or around XX/XX/XXXX I was convinced to sign up for XXXX. Back in XXXX was when the " XXXX XXXX '' were the new " Craze ''. I can not fully remember the name of the college, however it was a no name one that I signed up for. I went through he whole process of completing the XXXX XXXX loans for school and was approved. The government then sent a check to the school for my Classes/ Degree. I was then sent books for my classes and a class schedule. About a week or 2 after the classes started and I attended about 15 minutes of 1 class. I then realized that this was not for me. I am a visual learner. I need to be there in person, see things right there and be able to ask questions. Again in XXXX, the online learning was NOT what it is today. There was no XXXX or XXXX. There was no way to ask questions in class. I then dropped out of the program and requested that all of the funds be given back to the government, as I did not want to be responsible for loans that I did not use. In addition I sent all of the books back. Then about 7 years later, {$4700.00} worth of debt appears on my credit report. I have disputed this with Trans Union, XXXX and XXXX on MULTIPLE occasions. Also, back in XXXX following XXXX when they were offering the " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' I completed a 47 page application to forgive my loans. Due to the fact that they were NOT MINE. I NEVER attended this school and I should NOT have to pay for something I did not use. There was a point in time, where the loans seemed like they were getting smaller and going away. Yet, shortly thereafter they assessed ALL of the money back to my credit report. This debt has been held over my head for 20 years now. It has hindered my ability to get a vehicle, buy a home, even get a credit card. I have tried to take every step that I could to rid myself of this debt and it seems that no matter what I do, they never make any actual changes. The school that cashed this check should be responsible for giving the government back their money. I would understand IF I took the classes, got a degree, etc. then YES, I would expect to pay this debt. However, as I mentioned I NEVER attended any classes ( except for maybe 10 minutes ). I returned all of the books and told the school to give them back their money. I can not be held responsible for this. Maybe 15 years ago, companies could get away with shady doings of this kind. But it is XXXX and there is no way that you can legally make a person responsible for something they did not do.

I applied for a Capital One Secured Credit Card and paid {$1000.00} for the card. 

As I charged the card, I would make a payment. Im not sure why this was causing issues but initially they flagged my card and I had to go through an investigation. I told them I was simply paying the card of as I used it. They released to hold in the card but then just recently closed me account only citing that I was not using the card as agreed. Im not sure why paying the card off as I made charges and was violating any type of credit card agreement.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Termination fees or other problem when ending the lease early
Company: HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA (PR)

My lease with XXXX XXXX terminated in XX/XX/2017. I turned the vehicle in on XX/XX/2017. The remaining 2 payments were made. There was to be a termination fee charged if I did not lease another Hyundai within 30 days. We moved to XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2017 and my intention was to lease a Hyundai immediately. As you may be aware, hurricane Maria struck XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2017. It was physically IMPOSSIBLE for me to lease another vehicle within 30 days. Dealerships were closed, power was out for months, etc., etc.. XXXX XXXX was notified of the situation and they just did not care. They insisted I pay the fee. I refused based on the circumstances. I filed a formal complaint with XXXX XXXX ( # XXXX ). Hyundai basically said the hurricane was not their fault and they would never waive the fee. My credit score went from being in the 830-850 range all of my life to the low 700 's. I feel at best they should have shown some compassion and waived the fee and at worst they should not have attempted to ruin my perfect credit.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with additional products or services purchased with the loan
Company: LOBEL FINANCIAL CORPORATION (OR)

I have been asking my lender for a pay off letter for the last 2-3 months in order to sell my car to a dealership. The first time I asked was at the end of XX/XX/2023. I asked if they could email me a pay off letter. They asked why I would want that. And I said I want to sell my car and I need a pay off letter stating how much I owe on my loan. They said okay, we'll mail a letter because they are not allowed to email that kind of information. I gave them my address to send it to and never received anything. I called again in the beginning of XX/XX/2023. I asked again for the pay off letter and once again they asked what do I need a pay off letter for. I explained to them I want to sell my car, please send me a pay off letter. They updated my address and supposedly sent the letter. It is now the end of XX/XX/2023 I called them once again. I asked if they sent the letter and they said we are showing you requested it. I told them it's been almost two months and I have not received anything. I asked if they can email me it. Once again they said no. I asked to talk to a manager or supervisor the person said why, I said let me just talk to your supervisor or manager and they told me that there is no manager or supervisor in.

Also my dealer ship had called on my behalf requesting the pay off letter and one person did say they can email it, but of course only the account holder ( myself ) has to request it. But every time I ask for an email, or just mail, or request to talk to a manager or supervisor they just say no.

I could have sold my car two months ago, but they won't send me a pay off letter. It's starting to feel like they don't want me to sell my car and keep paying there interest rate.

recently reviewed my Consumer Reports and noticed that I had a late payment reporting from XXXX when in fact I was NEVER late on that account. Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report Consumer information to the best of their ability with Maximum Accuracy. I have NEVER been late for the account ( Creditor : XXXX # XXXX ). Please investigate and provide Proof with statements showing that this payment was late. If proof can't be provided I demand this payment be updated to ON TIME as it should be as I was NEVER late!!! 

Also, When looking at this account, I noticed that the Open Date, High Credit, Last Reported Dates and Last Active Dates, as well as Dates of Last Payment all vary between the 3 bureaus ( XXXX, Transunion and XXXX ). -- See attachment with above circled in red... 

In short, under 15 USC Section1681e ( b ) ( b ) Accuracy of Report Whenever a Consumer Reporting Agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

I know that under 15USC 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall ( i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation Thanks for your help in this matter!!!
