Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/year> Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Was Submitted On Time : My payments were submitted before the due date, as indicated by my bank statements and payment confirmations, which show that the payment was processed well in advance of the due date. There is no valid reason for this payment to be recorded as late. 
System Error at XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX experienced a system error during the payment processing period, which delayed the application of my payment. This error was acknowledged by their customer service team, and I have attached email correspondence from XXXX XXXX confirming this issue. 
Inconsistent Reporting Across Credit Bureaus : The late payment was reported by all three bureaus, but the dates and details vary across the reports, creating inconsistencies. This suggests that an error occurred in transmitting the payment information, as my payment history should be uniform and accurate across all credit bureaus. I have attached copies of the discrepancies in my credit reports for reference. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Using my BestBuy Credit Card I made a repair appointment with Best Buy at XXXX XX/XX/year>... .I then canceled the appointment 1 hour later on the same day at XXXX XX/XX/year>. 

I have written confirmation of the cancellation from the merchant. 

No service was provided. I received no benefit. 

BestBuy + BestBuy Credit card are not removing the charges of {$52.00} Even if per BestBuy Credit Card 's own letter ( attached ) the charges are supposed to be removed while in dispute ... these charges have yet to be removed from my account. 

BestBuy/BestBuy Credit card seem to be in cahoots and acting as the same entity.

This morning, I was completely blindsided by inaccurate accounts showing up on my credit report, and I cant figure out how it happened. I regularly check my report, but this time, errors appeared from nowhere. I thought maybe it was a browser issue and refreshed the page, but it wasnt. The incorrect accounts stayed there. Im requesting that the documents Ive submitted be reviewed thoroughly so I can stop worrying about this.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, 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 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, XXXX 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
