Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: American First Finance, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request an update to my credit report regarding the reporting of late payment on my account wi Upon reviewing my credit report, I noticed that a late payment have been reported. However, according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors are prohibited from reporting payments as late when they have been made on time. I firmly believe that the reported late payments on my account were, in fact, made on time, and their erroneous reporting has adversely affected my credit score.

The impact of these incorrect late payment reports has been significant. My credit score has suffered, resulting in higher interest rates on loans and credit cards, and it has hindered my ability to secure favorable financial terms. This has caused undue financial stress and hardship.

Complaint narrative:
I am trying to update my name on the account as I recently went through a legal name change. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent over sensitive personal information to the fax number provided with no type of confirmation that it was received or that it was being worked on. Ive called various times since to ask for updates, its been a month and I either get hanged up on or get told to wait longer. Most of the representatives I am unable to understand due to the lack of English spoken which is usually not an issue but it gets a bit frustrating once I keep trying to explain that the documents have been sent and what else is needed to be able to have the information updated in a timely manner. I am very disappointed and unhappy with how Citi treats customers with very little respect.
