Complaint narrative:
My account with those creditors 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 those account 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.

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!

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Company: Unifin Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I received XXXX text messages on the following dates : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX It stated the following each time, all from the same phone number XXXX : This is Unifin a debt collector Contact us about ref # XXXX @ XXXX or https : XXXX ChargesMayApply Reply STOP to stop texts I did not click any links. Instead, I typed in the URL. It asked me to provide the reference number and last XXXX digits of my XXXX, which gave me an error. Then it alternatively asked for my full name ( error ). I decided that if there was a real debt settlement issue, they would contact me again. 

The second time, I ignored the message. The third time, I called them at the XXXX number provided. They asked for the reference number, which I gave them. Then they stated the collection was tied to a name that is not mine or my husbands, so they said they had the wrong person on file. 

It didnt hit me until after I hung up that my first assumption that it was a scam was likely true. Nothing has happened yet. All of our credit accounts have been closed and we are in a debt management program. XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX have all been notified that we are in a DMP. 

Just playing it safe in reporting this potential scam. I should have listened to my gut, but Im particularly anxious about resolving debt these days so it clouded my judgement.
