XXXX XXXX Acct XXXX XX/XX/2022 30 days According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, consumers are entitled to receive notice of negative information being reported to a credit bureau before it is included in their credit report. In this case, I have not received any such notice, and the inclusion of these late payments on my credit report is a clear violation of my rights under this statute. I am formally requesting the following actions : 1. Immediate investigation into the lack of notice for the reported late payments. 2. Verification of compliance with 15 U.S.C. 1666b by the entities reporting this information. 3. removal of the late payments from my credit report. 

I expect a thorough and prompt resolution to this matter to ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and to prevent any undue harm to my creditworthiness. Please provide confirmation of the initiation of the investigation and an estimated timeline for resolution. Additionally, I request a free copy of my updated credit report upon the completion of the investigation. Your immediate attention to this issue is appreciated. Failure to address this matter within a reasonable timeframe may compel me to pursue legal remedies to protect my rights under federal law.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer.

My account with all the companies that I included on the document 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 the months that I was 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.

I had a procedure at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I received a balance bill from the XXXX center, at which time I called their billing department to better understand why I was receiving a balance bill. I was instructed to contact my primary and secondary insurance companies as my secondary didn't pay to cover the balance billed, {$1500.00}. After contacting both insurance companies, being told that my secondary insurance would not cover the balance, I wrote to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX to notify them that secondary would not cover, and the balance billing was a financial hardship, and asked them to accept the {$3500.00} they were paid. 

I received no response from the billing department after sending the written letter. I assumed that they accept my request to accept insurance as full payment due to the financial hardship. 

I found out months later that they had sent me to collections, without any written response from them at all. How does a billing department receive such a letter, after having spoken with you twice before, and not offer you the courtesy to figure out some sort of payment plan with them, but nothing! Shameful! 

Be aware of the way they handle their billing. Be sure they run your insurance against payable expected to ensure you will not have a balance bill. Also, don't assume they will respond to any written letters, as they never did for me.
