Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to formally dispute multiple inaccurate and unauthorized items that are currently appearing on my credit report. These include an address that does not belong to me, a late payment on a paid account, a questionable charge-off, and several hard inquiries made without my knowledge or consent. These entries are in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and they are causing measurable harm to my creditworthiness. I am requesting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to assist in ensuring a full reinvestigation and appropriate resolution of these violations. 
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$610.00} Late Payment Law Issue : FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Furnishers must provide accurate info Story : I dispute the late payment being reported on this account. I was facing verified financial hardship during the mentioned period and was in communication with the creditor for assistance. This reporting lacks full context and hurts my creditworthiness. 
XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} Chargeoff * * Law Issue : FCRA 1681i Inaccurate or unverifiable accounts must be deleted Story : This charge-off status is misleading since the balance is {$0.00}, and the account was resolved. Reporting a charge-off with zero balance harms my credit unjustly and appears punitive. 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$7400.00} Collection * * Law Issue : FDCPA 807 and FCRA 1681b ( a ) ( 3 ) Story : This collection account was never notified to me nor validated before reporting. I never received a statement of rights, and the debt may not even be mine.

Pursuant to my rights under FCRA 611 ( a ), I am requesting that the credit reporting agencies and data furnishers involved provide documented proof of accuracy, validity, and permissible purpose for each item listed in this complaint. If no such verification is provided within the required timeframe, I am requesting immediate removal of the disputed items from my credit report. These entries are materially inaccurate and are being reported in violation of federal law. I respectfully ask the CFPB to take appropriate action to ensure compliance and accountability, and to help restore the integrity of my consumer credit file. Please confirm receipt of this complaint and provide me with the results of any actions taken.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts 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/updated. 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. 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!

On XX/XX/2025 I submitted all required identity theft documentation in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c2 It has now been over 4 business days since receipt of that documentation, yet the collections remains on my credit file.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint regarding Chase Bank and the handling of my XXXX  card account. 

In [ insert month/year ], I was placed on what I was told was a payment plan with Chase to XXXX my outstanding balance. I was proactive and called XXXX to confirm my account status and to ensure I was complying with the agreement. Chase accepted my payments during this time, and I was actively trying to settle the debt in good faith. 

However, despite my consistent efforts and communication, Chase closed my account before the XXXX period I was told I had. I was later informed that I was never on an actual payment plan but instead on something referred to as a payment arrangmentwhich was never explained to me at the time. 

This miscommunication led to significant financial and legal stress, including a lawsuit from XXXX attorneys. I believe I was misled and that Chase acted in bad faith by accepting my payments while planning to close the account anyway. 

I respectfully request that this situation be reviewed. I am willing to cooperate fully to provide additional details if necessary. 

Thank you for your time and attention.
