State: MO

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with 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 XXXX  2022 and XXXX  2022 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 XXXX  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 XXXX  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

Complaint narrative:
When i received my XX/XX/XXXX statment, I noticed a late fee. I called customer served and asked if it were possible to remove the charge ( {$20.00} ) since it was an oversite on my part, and that in all the years that I had the account, I had never missed a payment. The gentlemen put me on hold and came back and said, yes he could remove the charge as a onetime exception. I was appreciated and what the balance would be after the charge was removed and it was {$40.00} and made that payment. WHen I received my XXXX statment, I saw that the charge had not been removed. I called and they refused to credit the amount and but offered me {$15.00} credit. I refused XXXX accept that because that is not what I was told - I asked to speak with a supervisor who would not offer the full credit that was promised. I received my XXXX statment and now I have a late fee opn my late fee. I sent a letter on XX/XX/XXXX explaining that. on XX/XX/XXXX they sent me a letter requesting that I call to resolve the issue. I did, and again went around and around, until a so called Supervisor agreed to make that credit on XX/XX/XXXX I have since received another stated with a {$42.00} balance. The bank reported this to the credit bureau on XX/XX/XXXX and my credito score dropped XXXX points!!!!! I ddid not have a XXXX credit score because i was in the practice of arguing over {$5.00} - it is the principal of the matter. This is sheer harrassment by this bank and beyong unprofessional.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: CBC Companies, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Stuart-Lippman and Associates, Inc
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint to formally request the removal of a collection account from my credit report, which has been placed by Stuart-Lippman and Associates , Inc . The basis of my complaint is that Stuart-Lippman and Associates , Inc is not licensed and bonded to collect debts in the state of Georgia, where I reside.

According to Georgia state law, debt collectors must be properly licensed and bonded to engage in debt collection activities. Stuart-Lippman and Associates , Inc has failed to meet this requirement. As such, any attempt by them to collect a debt from me is unlawful and in violation of state regulations. 

I did not authorize Stuart-Lippman and Associates , Inc to use my personal information for debt collection purposes. Their lack of proper licensing and bonding further compounds the illegality of their actions. Moreover, their failure to respond to my cease and desist letter underscores their disregard for consumer rights and legal obligations.
