Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 XXXX 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. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX 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:
I am writing to file a complaint against Capital One and Credit Reporting Agencies ( CRAs ) XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX for violations of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, these entities have breached the following federal laws : 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) : Unauthorized access to my credit report. 15 USC 1681s-2 : Furnishing inaccurate information and failing to correct and update information. 15 USC 1681b ( 3 ) : Improper use of consumer reports for adverse actions without proper notification. 15 USC 1681a ( d ) 2 ( A ) ( i ) : Consumer reports do not include information solely about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Late payments and utilizations are considered transactions and experiences and should be deleted. Additionally, charge-off accounts should be excluded from my consumer report pursuant to IRS rules and guidelines, as they are considered ordinary income and income is not reported on consumer reports. These violations have negatively impacted my creditworthiness and financial stability. I urge the CFPB to investigate these infractions and ensure compliance with federal laws to protect consumers like myself. Additionally, credit scoring models like XXXX and XXXX are proprietary tools and algorithms used by lenders to assess creditworthiness and determine credit terms, but they are not factors outlined in the consumer report or governed by federal consumer protection laws, which take precedence over individual bank guidelines. I rely on the CFPB to enforce federal consumer protection laws and regulations ensuring the credit reporting practices, including those used by lenders adhere to established guidelines and do not override the protections afforded to consumers under federal law.

Complaint narrative:
My Experian credit report and only my experian credit report has had an incorrect and illegitimate XXXX XXXX account on my credit report since 2021. 

I have disputed the account already to XXXX XXXX, who refuses to actually listen or investigate the issue. I have also notified Experian and submitted multiple disputes and statements and even submitted attorney filed documents demanding they remove the illegitimate account from my credit report. But the company does absolutely nothing. They do not investigate, they do not provide updates, they do absolutely nothing with the factual evidence I provide them.

Re : Late Payment Removal for Account Ending in XXXX I am requesting that you permanently delete the 30, 60, 90 day late payment that you have furnished on my credit report for XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. Experiences between the consumer and the person making the report are excluded from consumer reports. May I also remind you that 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 under Consumer Credit Cost Disclosure is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

This late payment is ruining my credit standing, character, and general reputation, and is preventing me from making certain transactions that my family relies on to live and operate in the banking system. After you have deleted this late payment, please send me a letter confirming that it has been deleted from your files and deleted from any credit reporting agencies you have furnished the information to.
