Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Pa, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TransUnion XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CO XXXX Subject : Request for Immediate Removal of Late Payments from Credit Report Pursuant to Consumer Law To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to request the immediate removal of late payments from my credit report in accordance with consumer law, specifically 15 U.S. Code 1666b, 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( 2 ) ( I ), and 15 U.S. Code 6802. Upon reviewing my credit report, I have identified late payments that are inaccurately reported and must be removed promptly to avoid further harm to my creditworthiness. 

I request the removal of the following late payments : XXXX XXXX I assert that these late payments are inaccurately reported and violate my rights under consumer protection laws for the following reasons : 1. Violation of Consumer Law : Consumer protection laws, including 15 U.S. Code 1666b, safeguard consumers from unfair credit reporting practices. The reporting of inaccurate late payments on my credit report constitutes a violation of these laws.

2. Accuracy Requirement : According to 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( 2 ) ( I ), consumer reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy of the information they report. The inclusion of inaccurate late payments on my credit report fails to meet this requirement.

3. Privacy Protection : 15 U.S. Code 6802 aims to protect consumers ' privacy rights by ensuring the accuracy and confidentiality of their personal information. The reporting of inaccurate late payments compromises my privacy rights and must be rectified immediately. 

I demand that you take immediate action to remove the inaccurate late payments from my credit report and provide me with written confirmation of their removal within 10 business days of receipt of this letter. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Should you require any further information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me at the address or phone number provided above. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

I moved in XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX and moved out XX/XX/XXXX. 
My security deposit transmittal is stating I moved out XX/XX/XXXX yet a charge for 2 months rent for insufficient notice- as if I broke the lease. 
No, I did not give a 60 day notice I wouldnt be signing the lease I was unaware being this was my first apartment. 
But there is no where on the lease stating I would be charged 2 months rent for not giving a notice. 
It shows that I would be charged XXXX for not giving a notice. 
By the time I noticed the extreme charge was incorrect it was already on collections and the company now cant do anything about it.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 60 days 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. 


XXXXXXXX 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 XXXX
