Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. 

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof.

I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Complaint narrative:
My account with the following company 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 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.

This company 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!

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX : I filed a claim on XX/XX/year>, for a total amount of {$5700.00} due to an unauthorized transaction/fraudulent activity on my account.

No additional communication has been received from the fraud department or claims team, leaving me in a state of uncertainty and financial XXXX 

Request for Resolution : I kindly request that a full review of my claim be conducted, including a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the fraudulent activity on my account. 

I request that a detailed explanation be provided as to why my claim was denied, including any evidence or reasons that led to this decision.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My bank card was cloned somehow and {$1200.00} was taken from my account on XXXX XXXX I had the card in my possession. Money was taken out XXXX different times at 2 different bank locations for {$200.00} ( XXXX xs ) and {$300.00} ( 2 xs ) XXXX caught the transaction and I was alerted and called my bank immediately to report fraudulent activity as I did not let anyone have my card or activate this myself. 
In the meantime my card was destroyed and a new card was mailed to me.

My claim was denied as they believe that I was the one who conducted the activity which is false. Im asking for help to get my money back. Cameras were never looked at to identify that it wasnt myself. Wanted to clear my name and prove that I wasnt the one pulling money out of my own account and then asking to be reimbursed. I would never think to do something like that. If there is anyway to get help on this matter I would greatly appreciate it. Im a hard working man and that money back ( which was mine to begin with ) would really come in handy.
