Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022 i received a derogatory mark on my credit report from XXXX, XXXX and transunion regarding a late payment from a XXXX account.

I then mailed out a letter on XX/XX/2022 and XX/XX/2022 to both the lender and reporting agencies letting them know they were in violation of my consumer rights. They've only updated the account since then and no further action was taken place.
