XX/XX/year>, I received a notification that my credit score had decreased by more than XXXX points. When I looked into it, the only possible explanation was that XXXX had reported several Department of Education XXXX loan accounts closed, and that I had missed XXXX payments on those loans. 

Under Department of Education rules, loan servicers are not supposed to report missing payments or other information that could negatively affect a borrower 's credit during the special " on-ramp '' period that lasts until XX/XX/year>. More info here : XXXX XXXX XXXX Additionally, the communications I received from XXXX were inaccurate, and emotionally distressing. Around the same time I received alerts to my credit report, I saw that I had messages in my inbox on the XXXX site. I had more than XXXX messages with the subject line " Congratulations! Your loans are paid in full. '' In the message was a congratulatory letter that said my balance was now {$0.00}, and my loans were paid off. 

For a moment, I thought my loans were paid. I had begun my application for public service loan forgiveness, and it's hard to keep up with all the changes to the loan program. It was only when I logged into the XXXX website that I learned I had a new loan servicer, XXXX. I never received any email or message from XXXX, the Department of Ed, or my new servicer, that my loans had been transferred. If I hadn't investigated further, I could have easily taken XXXX at their word and defaulted on my loans. Not to mention, sending people a letter that their loans are paid off, when they're just being transferred is incredibly cruel, especially when there is so much confusion right now around loan forgiveness.

My account with XXXXXXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH capital XXXX 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 in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, AND 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. 

XXXXXXXX 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!

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a late payment on my credit report by credit bureaus. The presence of this late payment inaccurately reflects my payment history, as I have consistently paid my bills on time. This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B. According to this law, consumers have the right to dispute and seek correction of billing errors, which include inaccuracies in payment reporting.

" 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.

I am writing to dispute the information on my credit report regarding account number XXXX with XXXX XXXX. Upon reviewing my credit report, I noticed that this account reflects a repossession, which occurred but each month the balance on the loan is falsely being reported as " late '' and the balance goes up. It is impossible for me to be late on payments on a vehicle I no longer have a monthly car payment for I would like to inform you that the repossession of the vehicle associated with this account was a result of being homeless and unemployed at the time. Unfortunately, due to my circumstances, I faced challenges in maintaining the payments on the loan, ultimately resulting in the repossession of the vehicle. Since the repossession, I have managed to stabilize my situation and have taken steps to address my financial difficulties. However, the repossession has left a significant impact on my credit report, hindering my ability to secure housing and employment. I kindly request that you provide me with a letter confirming the repossession and subsequent sale of the vehicle. This letter is crucial for my records and may be needed for future reference. Furthermore, I request that XXXX XXXX remove this account from my credit report immediately. The repossession has already had a detrimental effect on my credit score, and removing this negative account would greatly assist in my efforts to rebuild my financial standing. Please provide written confirmation once the account has been removed from my credit report. Additionally, I request that all correspondence regarding this matter be conducted in writing. 

I have reached out to XXXX XXXX many times requesting the the repossession and sale of my XXXX XXXX of which they refuse to give me and continue to falsely report late payments on my account when the car was repossessed in XXXX of 2021 Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

The items listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with 3 credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me.
