My accounts 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 to be removed/updated.

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 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!

On XX/XX/year>, complaint XXXX XXXX, I submitted a request to TransUnion, explicitly asking them to produce proof of authorization for several inquiries made on my credit report. I emphasized that I did not provide authorization for these inquiries and demanded that TransUnion provide evidence demonstrating that I had indeed permitted for these companies to access my credit report. 

TransUnion, as the credit reporting agency responsible for maintaining accurate and up-to-date credit information, is obligated under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to ensure that any inquiries on my credit report are lawful and authorized. According to the FCRA, it is the responsibility of the credit reporting agency, in this case, TransUnion, to obtain proof of authorization from the companies that made the inquiries, not from the consumer. 

Despite my clear request and legal rights under the FCRA, TransUnion failed to produce the required proof of authorization within the mandated XXXX period. Instead, they merely acknowledged receipt of my complaint and initiated a review process, delaying the resolution of the issue. 

TransUnion 's failure to provide the requested proof of authorization within the specified timeframe constitutes a violation of the FCRA. The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies promptly investigate and address consumer disputes, including providing proof of authorization for inquiries, within XXXX days of receiving a request. By neglecting to fulfill this obligation, TransUnion has infringed upon my rights as a consumer and violated federal law.
