Complaint narrative:
My submission is to urgently request your assistance regarding a 30 day late reporting credit entry that has recently appeared on my credit report by XXXX XXXX XXXX. This matter is of critical importance, as it has the potential to disrupt the business credit lines I rely on to rebuild and recover from the devastating fires in XXXX XXXX. 
In XXXX, as the fires were ravaging the XXXX XXXX area, where I live and work, I reached out to a XXXX  representative via phone and written correspondence to explain the fire situation happening in XXXX XXXX and the evacuation notices : both my home and business were significantly impacted by the recent fires. At that time, I was assured that my account would not be reported as late due to the disaster, and I was granted additional time to manage my payments. Following this communication, I did not receive any further calls or notifications from XXXX regarding my account status or any potential delinquency so I would not have suspected my account to be heading into delinquency. It was recently discovered that XXXXXXXX XXXX internal system did not match the phone number that reflected under my profile information which explained the issue with no phone calls. On XX/XX/year>, I received a credit monitoring alert notifying me of a XXXX point drop in my credit score. I immediately submitted full payment for all amounts due through XX/XX/year> and frantically made calls to XXXX to find out how this happened. Despite the daily efforts regarding this urgent matter, the late reporting remains on my credit report, which could severely jeopardize my ability to access the credit necessary to restore my business operations and continue my recovery efforts after the XXXX  fires. 
I kindly and urgently request your assistance in having this late reporting removed from my credit report as soon as possible. Your prompt attention to this matter is crucial, as it directly impacts my ability to rebuild my business and move forward from this challenging period. Thank you for your assistance.
