Complaint narrative:
I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.
