Complaint narrative:
**Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting on My Credit Report** **Date : XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to dispute the inaccurate reporting of late payments on my credit report, specifically related to the credit account *XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with account number XXXX. Upon thorough review, I have identified discrepancies in the reporting, which are a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The late payments reported on the aforementioned account are inconsistent with my payment history. I would like to bring to your attention that, to the best of my knowledge and records, I have consistently paid this account on time and in accordance with the agreed-upon terms. 

It is my understanding that under **15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) **, my consumer report should not contain information solely related to transactions or experiences between the consumer ( myself ) and the party ( you ) making the report. Payment history and the associated late payments negatively affect my consumer report and are considered part of my transactions and experiences with your company.

Furthermore, I am requesting that you provide me, in writing, the reasonable procedures adopted by your company in compliance with **15 USC 1666b**, ensuring that my periodic statement is mailed to me ( the consumer ) no later than 21 days before the payment due date. Please also include all the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of Title 15.

**Reference to PAANL ( Paid As Agreed, Never Late ) : ** The terms of our agreement have always been adhered to, and the account in question should reflect a status of " Paid As Agreed, Never Late '' based on the timely payments made. It is crucial that my credit report accurately reflects my financial responsibility and commitment to meeting my payment obligations.

Therefore, I request that you provide documented proof supporting the claim of late payments on this account. This proof should include specific details such as dates, amounts, and any relevant information demonstrating that the payments were indeed late. In the absence of valid proof, I expect this information to be rectified promptly.

If, after a thorough investigation, you are unable to provide verifiable proof of late payments, I demand that the account be promptly updated to reflect its accurate status as " Paid As Agreed, Never Late. '' Per the FCRA, I request that you conduct a timely investigation and provide a written response within 30 days of receiving this dispute letter. Failure to meet this timeline will be considered a violation of the FCRA.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution that aligns with the legal obligations outlined by the FCRA. Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining the accuracy and fairness of my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX
