My account with XXXX XXXX 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. 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.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''

Complaint narrative:
I opened a Bank of America account on XX/XX/year> I deposited {$30.00} into the bank account the following day. After that, I continue to deposit funds into the account over the course of XXXX days then I was locked out of the day I went to withdraw funds I could not withdraw any funds, then reached out to call and find out the reasoning behind me not being able to use my funds and then they announce that there was a closure and that they would not be able to provide specific reasoning to my closure. Besides, I had application and they couldnt verify my identity, but I have had no problem with any credit cards or anything verifying my identity as they couldve just requested a ID or Social Security or whatever forms of identity they needed instead of closing the account then when I proposed that I can just bring that they said still said that they are closing the account and need to figure out a closure date. This puts me in a really grave situation as I needed access to my funds today.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against Experian for violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputed negative items on my credit report, including inaccurate information regarding bankruptcy. Additionally, I have not received any response from Experian following the dispute letter I mailed to them. 
On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a dispute letter to Experian via certified mail, requesting an investigation into inaccurate negative items on my credit report. I specifically asked for the following information regarding how Experian verified the accuracy of the disputed items : The Date Experian Contacted the Creditor : I requested the specific date on which Experian initiated contact with the creditor and the furnisher of the bankruptcy. 
XXXX XXXX for the Creditor : I asked Experian to provide the complete contact information for the creditor, including their business name, address, and any available phone numbers. 
Name of the Person Who Verified the Item : I requested the full name of the individual at the creditors end who verified the accuracy of the disputed information. 
Method of Communication Used to XXXX XXXX : I requested details on how Experian communicated with the creditor ( e.g., phone, email, mail ) to verify the accuracy of the disputed items. 
Confirmation on Whether the Creditor Provided XXXX, Address, and Date of Birth : I asked whether the creditor provided any sensitive personal information such as my Social Security Number, address, or date of birth to verify the disputed items. 
Despite providing all necessary documents to verify my identity ( including my government-issued ID, Social Security XXXX XXXX and proof of address ), I have not received any response from Experian. Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are legally required to investigate and respond to consumer disputes within a reasonable time frame, typically within XXXX days. Experian 's failure to provide any response and conduct a reasonable investigation into my dispute is a clear violation of my rights under the FCRA.
