Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (VA)

My account has fraudulent charges. See attached spreadsheet for details. AAA Visa had a problem with the address confirmation and wasn't sending out alerts as I signed up for ( detail of them confirming this is also attached ). When I received a text from AAA Visa to confirm a charge I didn't recognize it and reported it as fraudulent on XX/XX/year>. I then logged onto my account and saw a total of 7 fraudulent charges which I also reported on the sme day. AAA Visa assured me that the charges would be reversed in 24 to 72 business days. They have not been reversed. I keep calling back and talking to a fraud specialist who tells me the same thing. Today I called again and the fraud agent told me that the earlier agents hadn't processed the reversals correctly. The company keeps giving me excuses as to why they aren't reversing the fraudulent charges. The company makes a promise that consumers will not be liable for fraudulent charges ( proof of which is also attached ).

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

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.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) 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. 


EQUIFAX 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I have a charged off account that appears on my credit report the issue is the same account is listed by two different creditors. The account is listed under XXXX XXXX and Pioneer credit. I opened the account with Pioneer credit. In XX/XX/XXXX The account was transferred over to XXXX XXXX. The account is now past due and instead of one company listing the debt both companies are listing the debt making it appear as if I owe two different companies. I have tried correcting this with no response. I only owe one of the companies for this listed debt. Under the FCRA my rights are being violated. I am requesting that either Pioneer credit or XXXX XXXX remove the debt until than I can not rightfully pay the debt because I do n't know which company it belongs to. Both companies are saying they own the debt. This has negatively impacted my credit in a huge way. I have been denied housing due to this.
