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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I have had a XXXXXXXXSynchrony credit account for several years with an original credit limit of {$5000.00} ( I believe ).

Complaint narrative:
My account with EXPERIAN was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated.

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.

EXPERIAN 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!

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, a vehicle service agreement associated with an auto loan originating in XX/XX/XXXX was canceled. According to its terms, a pro-rated refund of approximately {$1000.00} to {$1100.00} was due. However, 98 days past confirmed cancellation, the refund was not applied to the loan balance. This error resulted from an internal mistake acknowledged by XXXX XXXX XXXX  when drafting the vehicle service contractthe lien-holder was mistakenly listed as " XXXX '' instead of " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Consequently, the loan balance remained artificially high, and a payment due for XX/XX/XXXX was erroneously reported as missed on all three major credit reporting agencies. 

The borrower contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX  by phone in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX to request an adjustment based on the refund. Despite assurances that the issue was being addressed, no resolution has been reached as of XX/XX/XXXX. A dispute was also submitted to the credit bureaus with full supporting documentation, yet the erroneous late payment remains on the credit report. 

Based on the following legal protections : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : 15 U.S.C. 1681i requires that credit bureaus investigate and correct any disputed inaccurate or incomplete data. 

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 mandates that furnishers, such as lenders, report accurate and complete information.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq. ( implemented by Regulation Z ) requires clear and accurate disclosure of loan terms. An inflated balance due to an unprocessed refund misrepresents the actual terms. 

Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices ( UDAAP ) : Enforced by the CFPB under the Consumer Financial Protection Act, UDAAP prohibits lenders from engaging in practices that mislead or harm consumers. Reporting an inflated balanceand requiring on-time payments on that erroneous portioncould be considered deceptive and unfair. 

Therefore, if a loan amount is inflated due to a refund for a canceled service was not processed correctly, the borrower is not liable for the erroneous balance. XXXX XXXX XXXX must correct the error by adjusting the loan balance, issuing the appropriate refund, and updating the credit reports to reflect accurate information. This negative mark has lowered the borrowers credit score and undermined their ability to secure favorable credit terms in the future. 

XXXX XXXX will has been notified of this complaint and has been dealing with the loan borrower for 98 days to fix their own internal mistake. All while the borrower has continued to pay accrued interest on the owed refund amount since XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX

Company response to consumer: Closed with monetary relief
