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/updated. 

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. 

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!

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding the failure of the XXXX major credit bureaus ( XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX ) to update and correct my personal information on my credit report, despite my numerous requests. 
Recently, I reviewed my credit report and discovered several discrepancies, including incorrect spellings of my name and multiple addresses listed, while I only have XXXX current address. In order to ensure the accuracy of my credit profile, I submitted formal requests for correction and updates to all three credit bureaus, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 ). 
Specifically, I requested the following updates to my credit profile : * Correct spelling of my name * Correct address * Removal of any other addresses listed on my credit report, as they are inaccurate, misleading & non-mailable address. 
To verify my identity and address, I included copies of my driver 's license to verify my address. 
Despite my thorough and compliant submissions, none of the credit bureaus have updated my information as requested. The discrepancies remain on my credit reports, which continue to reflect multiple incorrect addresses and the incorrect spelling of my name. This negligence on the part of the credit bureaus is not only a violation of my rights under 15 USC 1681, FCRA, GLBA, ECOA, PRIVACY ACT OF 1974 but it also jeopardizes the accuracy of my credit profile and impacts my creditworthiness. 
I am seeking your assistance to ensure that the credit bureaus take immediate action to rectify these inaccuracies. It is imperative that my credit reports reflect accurate and up-to-date information to maintain the integrity of my credit history.

Company: Guild Holdings Company (ID)

I called Guild Mortgage on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX to inquire about a pre-approval. I specifically told XXXX XXXX on the phone, after asking many questions that I was not ready to have an application processed for a loan as I was just starting to ask around. He told me that it would be a soft pull and so I gave him all my information he asked to do so.. not even 5 minutes later, I had a hard inquiry hit my credit score. XXXX XXXX went ahead and took it upon himself to run a hard pull on my credit and submit my application when I did not authorize him to do so. I want this removed from my credit score as I will not be using this company after they took it upon themselves to do this against my wishes. What do I need to do to get this removed. When he called me back I told him it hit my credit score and that he was only to do a soft pull and he said he was sorry but in order to get me loan options he had to run it but congrats you've been preapproved. Um NO! I've talked to several lenders and what he did was not right. They can do a soft pull and give me ideas of loans I qualify for and for how much. I do not trust this company and I would not either if I were you. What else is this guy going to be using my information for? I don't feel safe knowing he has all my personal information.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (ID)

I am obtaining legal help in this matter. After receiving Wells Fargo 's response to my complaint, I have no choice. The original case # is XXXX. 
Wells Fargo states that being as all of my balances have the same APR, any payment I make in excess of the minimum amount will be split among the balances. This IS NOT in the Agreement and Disclosure that they sent me, and it was NEVER in any disclosure or information on the paperwork when I used their " Supercheck '' offers. It was only in the current letter that they sent me. It was not disclosed initially until now. 
I have been paying extra each month to pay off the balance that is due the earliest. Their practice makes this impossible and is only in favor of their institution. It is not in the favor of the consumer, quite the opposite. Also, as I said it was not disclosed initially. Please see page 11, 2nd paragraph. which states : " Generally, we will apply your Minimum payment first to lower APR balances before balances with higher APR 's. Payments made in excess of the Minimum Payment will be applied to balances with higher APR 's first before balances with lower ones '' I'm sure there are many other people who find this peculiar and downright illegal. I hope to bring it to the light.

" 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 : XXXX - XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, "
