Company: TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Prior to my lease maturity date of XX/XX/year> ; I contacted Mazda multiple times to confirm all necessary procedures and avoid any delays, as I was scheduled to pick up my new XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 

During XXXX of these calls, a Mazda representative informed me that my XX/XX/XXXX payment, which I believed to be my final monthly payment for XXXX, was unnecessary since XXXX was my lease maturity month. Consequently, Mazda reimbursed me for that payment. 

I then requested a payoff letter for XXXX to facilitate the vehicle purchase. Mazda provided an official payoff letter stating a total amount due of approximately {$19000.00}. I again expressed concern about potentially returning the vehicle XXXX days after the maturity date. XXXX separate Mazda representatives assured me that as long as payment was received within XXXX  days of the maturity date, there would be no issues. XXXX submitted the payment to Mazda on XX/XX/XXXX, well within this XXXX window. 

Despite these assurances and XXXX 's timely payment of the exact amount specified in Mazda 's official payoff letter, Mazda is now claiming a shortfall and demanding additional payment from XXXX. This unresolved issue is negatively impacting my credit score. Mazda still retains the vehicle 's title, and I am being held accountable for an amount that was clearly a miscalculation on Mazda 's part.

This situation indicates a significant failure in Mazda 's internal communication and staff training. I find this completely unacceptable and demand an immediate resolution to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
These entries are incorrect and do not accurately reflect my actual payment history. I have made multiple attempts to get these discrepancies investigated and corrected, yet no meaningful action has been taken. Despite providing all necessary documentation and following up several times, these errors remain unresolved. This ongoing issue has caused financial stress and has taken a serious toll on my well-being. Dealing with these inaccurate entries has been frustrating and exhausting. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to a credit report that accurately represents my financial history. This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate action to update or remove these late payment entries, as failing to do so is a direct violation of my rights under federal law. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution as soon as possible.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX I contacted ProCollect regarding a {$4400.00} debt that I believe should be split between me and another leaseholder. I was calm and respectful while asking for a breakdown of the charges and if a settlement could be arranged since I could not afford the full balance. 

Instead of assisting me, the ProCollect representative became extremely rude, raised their voice, and hung up on me multiple times. I called back on XXXX different occasions and was treated the same way each time. I was never abusive or threateningjust asking questions about the debtbut they refused to let me speak and kept disconnecting the calls. 

This behavior was unprofessional, aggressive, and made it impossible for me to resolve the issue properly.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late.
