Complaint narrative:
Request for Removal of Inaccurate Late Payments from Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of inaccurate late payments listed on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1666 ( b ), and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am entitled to have accurate information reported on my credit file. The late payments in question are inaccurately reported on my credit file and do not reflect my payment history accurately. I assert that I have never been late on any payments, as I have always been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts. The fact that a bill may have been sent to my address does not constitute proof of a late payment. The reporting of these inaccurate late payments violates my rights under the FCRA, as they do not reflect my true creditworthiness. Additionally, the reporting of false late payments may constitute a violation of the FDCPA, as it misrepresents the status\ of my accounts : BANK OF AMERICA , numberXXXX XXXX, the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) requires accurate reporting of credit information to ensure consumers are treated fairly and have access to credit based on accurate data. I demand that all late payments currently reported on my credit file be updated to reflect 100 % on-time payments, as per my true payment history. Failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under the FCRA and other consumer protection laws. I request that you investigate this matter promptly and provide me with written documentation of the removal of these inaccurate late payments from my credit report within 30 days

Complaint narrative:
My account XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 in XXXX AND XXXX 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 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
