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 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. 

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!

I've noticed unfamiliar items on my credit report, suggesting potential identity theft as I haven't authorized these accounts. I've previously raised this concern, and now I urgently request the removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence is causing significant stress as they do not accurately reflect my financial history or management. Addressing this issue has been challenging, and if a resolution isn't reached, I'm prepared to seek legal recourse to safeguard my rights and resolve the matter. These inaccuracies are hindering my ability to achieve crucial financial milestones such as homeownership and providing for my family. I earnestly hope for a prompt resolution to this matter.

Upon reviewing my credit report on XXXX and Experian I notice that both companies are reporting not only inaccurate information. They are reporting two different things as well for a previous account that I had with XXXX XXXX. I have disputed this account with both companies previously and nothing has been done. This in fact is a violation of my consumer rights according to the FCRA. As a result I would like for the above mentioned companies to remove this account from my credit report IMMEDIATELY. 


I am really outraged that I have been going back and forth with the credit reporting agencies about this account for sometime. If nothing is done about this I will be forced to take legal actions and will exercise my consumer rights and file a lawsuit

On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote to the below creditors requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reported. To this date I have not received a response. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on their part to grant an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy. Your credit reporting agency has been reporting inaccurate and incomplete account information to my credit file. I am distressed that these referenced inaccurate accounts are on my credit profile. Your reporting agency has failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit information they report and may be liable under 15 U.S.C. 1692g validation of debt. Also, in Fisher v. Equifax Information Services LLC ( D. Ariz. 2018 ), your reporting agency may be liable for false reporting. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. While these third party collectors attempted to collect a debt that is not mine, they broke 15 U.S. Code 1692k - Civil liability. I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with your agency and the false reporting collectors for the purpose of filing a complaint to the FTC if the non-compliance continues. Like, Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D.Cal. Nov. 14,1995 ), the below false creditors will be liable for your willful non-compliance. Also, in Fisher v. Equifax Information Services LLC ( D. Ariz. 2018 ), they may be liable for false reporting. I need all my information my my credit profile to be 100 % accurate since im trying to apply for a house soon.

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties and I did not participate in any of it. More so they didn't follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which make this unfair practices. According to the FDCPA I'm entitled to XXXX dollars per violation and clearly they violated my rights. I also tried fixing this issue but nothing was fixed.

I am stressed and displeased that I see so many fraudulent accounts on my credit report. This is really damaging my credit worthiness. I am trying to buy a home for me and my family and this is not fair. I have tried several times to get these accounts removed. Let alone, my information was in an XXXX & Equifax breach some months ago so I thought you all would protect my consumer report. I do not feel that my information is being protected. This is a defamation to my character, and this is a federal law violation. According to, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) my consumer report fairness and privacy has been violated. I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also, it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher people 's information to 3rd party companies, so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can get sued for these damages. This is negatively affecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately.

I was sitting at home, working diligently and making my house payment on time as I have for the past 12 years. Nationstar Mortgage decided to tack on a " property inspection '' fee to make sure I still live here. I never authorized it, no clue why they charged me for it and am arguing with them about their random fees. Their response so far has been " well, it was {$13.00} this month, you are lucky it was n't {$300.00} ''. This has to be illegal. I asked them for written documentation where it says they can randomly assess my account funds ... ... ... they never sent that documentation and suddenly do not speak English very well. I have been on the phone almost every day with them and just get put on hold for hours.

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've learned that the creditor didn't provide the necessary 21-day notice along with a statement, which would have given me enough time to process payments and avoid late fees on these accounts. This mistake has caused a misrepresentation of the payment status, indicating a billing error by the creditor.

I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration concerning the multiple unsuccessful attempts to remove fraudulent items from my credit report. I believe that these inaccuracies are adversely affecting my creditworthiness, and despite persistent efforts on my part, the resolution of this matter remains elusive. 
I submitted formal disputes through your online dispute resolution platform, providing comprehensive details and supporting documentation to substantiate my claim for the removal of fraudulent items. Unfortunately, these submissions have not resulted in the desired corrections, and the fraudulent information persists on my credit report. 

The existence of these fraudulent items has had a severe impact on my ability to access credit, secure favorable interest rates, and engage in essential financial transactions. I have diligently followed the prescribed procedures, including contacting your customer service department on multiple occasions, yet the promised resolution has not materialized. 

I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting in maintaining the integrity of the financial system, and I am committed to resolving this matter promptly. However, the repeated failures to address my concerns have caused significant distress and hindered my financial well-being. 

In light of the above, I am requesting an immediate and thorough review of my case. I expect a comprehensive investigation into the fraudulent items on my credit report and the swift removal of any inaccuracies found. Furthermore, I request regular updates on the progress of this matter and a clear timeline for resolution. 

If decisive steps are not taken promptly to correct this situation, I will be compelled to escalate this complaint to regulatory authorities and explore legal avenues to uphold my rights as a consumer. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$340.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$340.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX.
