Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (VT)

My account with 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 60 days 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.

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 XXXX

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (NY)

Apparently XXXX XXXX ( synchrony bank ) has changed their terms of service in their credit card and are charging interest on interest accrued in the last billing cycle. I paid the billing statement in full on XX/XX/XXXX which was 2 days ahead of the billing due date then get a bill for {$2.00}. I did a live chat with them and this was the response. " We recently sent a Change in Terms in the mail, in your statement, or via your paperless statement with these changes. Please refer to the " Changes to When We Charge Interest '' section for any questions.

If you did not pay your balance in full in the prior billing cycle, interest will be calculated on your balance from the first day of the current billing cycle until we receive your payment in full, even if you pay your balance in full and on time and make no new charges in the current billing cycle. 
This interest, plus interest on that in-terest, will be reflected on your next billing statement. '' Charging interest on interest does not seem right when you pay the statement in full.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

On XX/XX/2021 Bank of America began deducting a fee of {$3.00} per month from my checking account for providing copies of checks written on this account. Neither I nor my wife ever requested or approved this service. I went to my bank and requested that this charge be discontinued and was told they could do nothing. I was told that I had to call the Bank of America service line to handle the problem. I began calling Bank of America on a regular basis and asked that the service be discontinued. I requested that I be given a refund equal to the service charges that I had incurred. Each service person to whom I spoke assured me that the deduction would be discontinued even though it might take up to 60 days. The {$3.00} deduction is still happening to this day. I need your assistance with this unlawful service charge.

Company: CBC Companies, Inc. (CA)

Innovis requires phone number verification during the login process to the online account, as shown in the attached document. I successfully requested the removal of many old phone numbers, leaving only phone number A, which is currently my secondary phone number. Consequently, when I log into my online account, only phone number A appears for verification. However, I would prefer to use my primary phone number B for authentication in addition.

Innovis instructed me to contact my lenders to update my information with phone number B. Regrettably, after reaching out to three credit card companies, one mortgage company, and one auto loan company, all of them informed me that they do not report phone numbers to credit bureaus. Only XXXX  XXXX XXXX, which reported my phone number A to Innovis, was an exception. Nevertheless, the associated credit card was closed years ago, and I am not inclined to open a new XXXX  XXXX XXXX Credit Card solely for this purpose ( please refer to the attached document ). 

Innovis further requested that I provide a phone bill and driver 's license to add phone number B. Consequently, I submitted all the required documents, including my social security card. Upon receiving my letter, Innovis removed phone number A from the system ; however, several even older phone numbers appeared ( as shown in the attached document ), while phone number B is currently under investigation.
