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

My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with 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 XX/XX/2024 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 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

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

Costco Citibank Visa quickly accepted my dispute against a Hotel Reservation Company going by XXXX, a subsidiary of XXXX and owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX since XXXX. This online website mirrored the actual hotel 's website and made an effort to hide its 3rd party status. I was looking to compare prices and terms. Believing I was on the XXXX XXXX XXXX website, I entered the price evaluation algorithm on the first page of this 3rd party website. It appeared to be the same price evaluation software I was familiar with using to evaluate the full cost of leasing an auto, buying an airline ticket, and discovering the real cost of a hotel room. Believing I was on the XXXX XXXX XXXX website, I signed up using my credit card information hoping to get a discount as a member. It was XX/XX/XXXX, and I entered my desired calendar dates for XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX days ). I chose a room with a king bed, and a price of $ XXXX popped up. Great Price! I still wanted to know the terms ( refundability ), taxes, and fees. I was still in the price evaluation algorithm, and the only way I could move forward in assessing this information was to click on a button that read, " Make a Reservation. '' I did not want to waste my time and effort, so I clicked on it. Immediately, I was billed {$260000.00} and told the details would be an emailed receipt. I called the hotel, and they told me they were sorry that I had used a 3rd party vendor to make the reservation, and according to their contact phone number, it was XXXX. I went to my email and discovered they lied about the price. there was close to {$700.00} in undisclosed taxes and fees, and only then did they inform me that the purchase was non-refundable. In effect, I was misinformed about price, taxes, fees, and terms. Citibank decided in their favor after a long dispute process by informing me that the vendor " says they don't owe me anything. '' Every dispute agent I talked with on the phone expressed great concern for me and knew what had happened was WRONG! I asked Citibank if they have another process besides disputes to protect their consumers when their customers have been clearly defrauded. They said there was nothing they could do. I know they XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX went into effect on XX/XX/XXXX. So far it seems that no federal agency has set up an enforcement mechanism for this law. After trying to negotiate directly with XXXX and XXXX, I was refunded {$2400.00}. They did not negotiate they unilaterally decided to charge me for one night after I " no showed. '' I canceled my reservations through this 3rd party vendor within 3 hours of being illegally tricked into making it and 30 days prior to my actual reservation date on XX/XX/XXXX.

The info in my credit reports is wrong, making it hard for me to get new credit. When I apply for credit, the errors confuse lenders and paint the wrong picture of my creditworthiness. 

These mistakes seriously harm my financial reputation. So, I formally ask for them to be corrected and removed from my reports. It's crucial that my credit file shows my real financial status for fair assessments by lenders.

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (IL)

On XX/XX/2019 CitiCards closed my credit card that I've had for over 13 years without warning or notification. 

I called and spoke with their customer service team and they let me know that since I hadn't used the card for two years their policy is close the card. 

They would only let me reapply by running my credit again to open a new card, but they gave me no reassurance that it would be the exact same account number. 

It made no sense to me why they couldn't accommodate my request to just reopen the same card.

I informed them of the issue & provided them with the required documents to remove the items via FCRA Section 605b.

I am writing to express my continued frustration and concern regarding the presence of late open accounts on my credit report. Despite my initial dispute and the provision of supporting documentation, these late open accounts persist, negatively affecting my creditworthiness. This letter serves as my second attempt to request the correction of these inaccuracies. The presence of these late open accounts not only violates the FCRA but also undermines my ability to access credit, secure loans, and make sound financial decisions. I kindly request that your agency conducts a thorough and comprehensive reinvestigation into these late open accounts, reviewing the documentation I have previously provided and any new information that may be relevant. It is imperative that you take immediate action to correct these errors and ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my payment history. Furthermore, I expect your agency to notify all the credit reporting agencies to which you have disseminated this erroneous information, as required by law, to prevent the continued spread of these inaccuracies. Please consider the significance of this issue and its impact on my financial wellbeing.

I am formally writing this dispute to address XXXX XXXX  companys response to my request for investigation. 

As it stands, you have failed to consider all relevant information provided to you per 15 USC 1681s-2 ( 8 ) ( E ) ( ii ) Duty of person after receiving notice of dispute. I concluded this reason based on this companys response to my notice of dispute through the CFPB portal. I was very clear about the issues connected to the account this company has furnished with consumer reporting agencies. 

If this account is accurate as you say, then who is going to correct the inaccuracies that are connected to XXXX XXXX XXXX that I am currently seeing? 

Surely, the consumer reporting agencies will not do it because THIS company is giving them the green light to keep the account as it is, uncorrected. 

Id. at XXXX ; see also XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX  ) ( defining verify as [ t ] o prove to be true ; to confirm or establish the truth or truthfulness of ; to authenticate ). 

As seen on the highlighted consumer disclosure report that has come directly from XXXX that I provided to you as my proof of claim, there are currently ND ( No data ) notations being reported, a random 90-day late payment and 180-day late payment notation that is shown in my consumer report. I will not allow this misinformation to ruin the integrity of my consumer report. 

This response is not the same complaint. The nature of the complaint is completely different. This is a demand for deletion as remedy for failure to comply with the FCRA

The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.
