I am writing to formally dispute several items on my credit report that are inaccurate and have been reported in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically : Under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure the maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general if, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall XXXX XXXX ( i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

According to 15 USC 1666b it is a billing error. I did not receive a statement 21 days before the late payment error.

15 USC 1666b ( 4 ) ( 5 ) - The companys failure to provide statement within 21 days is a violation, please remove late payment ; statement shows positive balance instead of negative which is a billing error and therefore no payment was due ( how can I pay on a positive balance ) Pursuant to 15 USC 1681eb this account is in violation of maximum possible accuracy and 15 USC 1666b for violation of billing error
