Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Was Made on Time : According to my bank records, the payment was made before the due date. I have attached payment confirmation and bank statements for your reference. 
Clerical Error in Reporting : There seems to be an inconsistency in the payment date reported versus the actual payment date. My records show no outstanding payments during the reported period. 
Account Closed Before the Reported Late Payment : This account was closed and paid in full prior to the date the late payment was recorded. Documents showing the closure and final balance are attached.

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Re : Dispute of Charge-Off Account under the CARES Act, FCRA, and TILA Account Number : XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX for inaccurately reporting a charge-off account on my credit report. This action is inconsistent with the protections established under the CARES Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ).

CARES Act During the national emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, I applied for and was approved for a financial relief program provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX . Under the CARES Act, creditors were required to provide payment deferrals or modifications and report the accounts in a favorable status while participating in these programs. Despite complying with the terms of the program, my account was marked as charge-off, which is a violation of this law.

Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) According to the FCRA, creditors and credit reporting agencies are required to report accurate information. Reporting my account as charge-off is incorrect and unfairly damaging my credit history. I am requesting the CFPBs intervention to ensure that this error is properly investigated and that the charge-off status is removed from my credit report.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to provide clear and accurate information regarding credit terms and any modifications to them. I was not properly informed by XXXX XXXX XXXX about how the relief program would impact my account or how the status of the account would be reported to the credit bureaus. This lack of transparency is a violation of my rights under TILA.

Request Therefore, I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and require XXXX XXXX XXXX to remove the charge-off status from my credit report, as the information is inaccurate. I am attaching supporting documents that show I was part of a financial relief program and that this charge-off classification is incorrect.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and trust that you will take the necessary actions to rectify this situation, protecting my rights as a consumer. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''
