Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

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


XXXX XXXX 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 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!

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I have a credit card with Chase and that account currently has 2 " promotional rates '' applied to my balance, one is 18.49 % and the other is 1.99 %. I've been making an effort to get the higher interest rate balance lowered, so I recently made a large payment in addition to my minimum payment amount and the company applied {$680.00} to my lower interest balance that month when my minimum payment for that month was only {$370.00}. When I called to find out why, they said that because it was done in two payments ( my minimum payment autopay on XX/XX/year> + an additional one time manual payment of {$6500.00} on XX/XX/year> ) they can apply the minimum payment amount to my lower interest rate for each payment. This is not my understanding of how the CARD Act works, although I'm not a lawyer. 

The case # with Chase is XXXX. 

I would be willing to provide my credit card statements, but it is unclear if attaching them below is secure and my full account number and other sensitive information is on the statements. However, I will happily provide them if you wish to provide a secure way to do so.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
