XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( PoXXXX XXXX ) XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX Hi XXXX, Thanks for you for providing that information! we apologize for any negative impact to your credit score. 

I'd love to provide you with more details! 

Could you please tell me if you applied for a loan with us? 

An account is considered XXXX when there is an outstanding balance on the account that is more than XXXX days past due. Unfortunately, even if the account is fully repaid after this, it's still considered XXXX to the credit bureaus. Your account will be updated to reflect that it is " XXXX ''. However, the XXXX status is unable to be removed. 

As a lender reporting to XXXX and XXXX, were required to report all information accurately and consistently in accordance with the policies of those bureaus. Were not able to offer pay-for-delete options or otherwise delete accurate information from our reporting. 

If you believe the negative effects to your credit score are due to incorrect reporting, please file a dispute claim with XXXX and XXXX. Both of these credit bureaus offer dispute services for free. We want to do right by our customers and are happy to amend reports that are found to be in error. 

Let us know if you have any other questions, we're here to help.

Click here to check out our Help Center XXXX | XXXX | XXXX | XXXX | XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to dispute the accuracy of the reporting related to my account with XXXX XXXX. The record inaccurately reflects a XXXX  status in XX/XX/XXXX, which does not align with the accounts historical information. 

The account history shows it was XXXX days late in XX/XX/XXXX, advanced to XXXX days late in XXXX, XXXX days late in XXXX, and finally XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have not made any payments, nor has there been any account activity to justify a renewed XXXX status in XX/XX/XXXX. 

I request a thorough investigation into this matter, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires accurate and fair credit reporting. The re-reporting of a XXXX for this account seems incorrect and potentially violates the stipulations for credit reporting accuracy and fairness. 

I anticipate your prompt response and resolution to this issue, in compliance with the FCRA guidelines. Please update me in writing about the findings and actions taken to rectify this matter. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this important issue.
