Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
A one time late payment was reported on my credit report recently. I was making payments for over five ( 5 ) years and this was the first late payment reported. There was only a remaining balance of {$2300.00} roughly. I didn't realized the car payment had matured and thought I had time to make the payment. Dealing with COVID, working less hours and my daugther returning to college I managed to keep up with the payments, sometimes late, but never to late to be reported. Shortly after my credit score dropped by over 100 points I gathered the funds to pay the loan off on XX/XX/year>. I am humbly asking for assistance in having this late payment remove from my credit report. 
Thank you for your king assistance with this matter. 

Best regfards, XXXX XXXX

I never received my e-statement, yet I've received all of my statements and receipts from them for the past XXXX XXXX years and I received the late payment notice at the same email address as everything else. 

Upon logging into my account the statement shows a due date of XX/XX/28. The bill was paid in full, as soon as I received the notice, on XX/XX/XXXX. That makes my payment XXXX days late NOT XXXX days late as their agent told me repeatedly.

Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
They failed to send any loan repayment documents or information. At the 30 day mark, I was forced to call and tell them to send the loan information. When making the first payment, I found they had charged a late fee. I spoke with the people who answered as service reps. They agreed to waive the late fee then continued to charge late fees for the first months payment over the next nine months. They collected nine false late fees on that months payment. Several phone calls later, they simply refused to stop the late fees. I then asked if they would move the first months payment to the end of the loan and was told they would. They could then collect five years interest on that payment and would stop the late fees being assessed as result of their incompetence and failure to deliver the loan repayment documents. They stopped assessing additional late fees but kept the nine late fees on the account. Every single payment over five years was made in full on time.

Two months after making every payment in full on time over five years, including nine false late fees, and paying the last of these false late fees two weeks ahead of the due date, I discovered they assessed another late fee ten days after the previous payment was made and falsely reported the last payment as late to the credit bureaus kicking my credit score down XXXX points. 

This group is shockingly unethical and employs illegal practices. Their website payment portal is completely wrong by hundreds of dollars. It does not state principal paid, interest paid nor does it show late fees. Again, three layers of management refused to correct any of their errors. They are a disgusting display of negligent employees with no ability to discern ethical or correct accounting practices.
