Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

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

Today XX/XX/XXXX, I have received an email from CapitalOne QuickSilver saying I missed XXXX payments with a total of {$32.00}. Since I had not used the card for a long time, I did not know there was a charge. So I logged into the app, then found out there was a charge on XX/XX/XXXX of {$16.00}. Because there is no alert from the app ( usually have ) and no email alert, I was not aware there was a charge. Then it kept accumulating late fees for XXXX and XXXX. That accumulated up to {$62.00}. I called CapitalOne and complained. 

First. I never made the charge, so that was a fraud case Second. I have not received ANY ALERT whatsoever in any form ( they used to do that ) and it accumulated all the late charges and the most important it will report to my credit bureau and hurt my credit score.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (NY)

Bank of America ( BofA ) called my business phone to offer a " Business Advantage Unlimited Cash Rewards '' credit card. During the phone call, which I was told was recorded, I asked BofA representative XXXX XXXX if I would be able to set up Auto-Payments online for this card to pay the full balance each month. XXXX XXXX told me that I could. After the card was issued, I found that I could not set up auto-payments for the full balance, only payments for a fixed amount. I contacted XXXX XXXX and she had to ask a colleague to confirm whether it was actually possible to set up such auto-payments. Ultimately she concluded that I could not do so, and that what she had told me about auto-payments was untruthful.

" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  XXXX - XXXX. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
