I am formally disputing and requesting the prompt removal of fraudulent account from my credit report. This dispute roots from a case of identity theft, for which I have filed a formal report in Federal Trade Commission and also filed a Police Report on my local police department. Additionally, I have reached out to the bank associated with the fraudulent account. The bank has accepted the identity theft report 's legitimacy and known a potential system glitch that has hindered access to the records. They have assured me of the prompt removal of the fraudulent account, which has been mistakenly existing on my report for over five years. But somehow, this fraudulent account is still existing in my report under your bureau and I'm curious what kind of confirmation process have you done. XXXX XXXX XXXX credit bureaus no longer reporting this fraudulent account since the submission of the required documents. Please delete this account once and for all : XXXX XXXX XXXX

Consumer complaint received 2024-02-05
Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (CA)

Over the past year I have noticed that every time I pay my credit card by mail I get dinged with a {$40.00} late fee. The few times that I made a payment by phone, the payment was fine, but I have had over XXXX late payments applied to my account due to Synchrony supposedly not receiving the payment on time. The past XXXX months I have had late fees applied to my account every month even though I have sent payments in 10 days prior to the due date. This past payment was brought to post office for direct mailing and i was told that the payment should not take 10 days to get from the XXXX XXXX to the XXXX XXXX. As of today XXXX Synchrony is claiming that they have not received my payment which was mailed on XX/XX/2024 and due on XX/XX/2024. My suspicion is that Synchrony is purposely delaying picking up the payments from their XXXX XXXX XXXX after due dates. I have no way to prove that they have received my payment unless I send XXXX certified mail which is costly and unnecessary. 
I don't appreciate being scammed by this bank or b being charged repeatedly for late payments when the payments were sent in a timely fashion. I am asking that all late fees for the last XXXX months be rescinded.
