Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 those account 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 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX and Experian for their failure to properly investigate and address my identity theft dispute in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Background : Identity Theft Incident : I have been a victim of identity theft, which has resulted in several fraudulent accounts and incorrect information appearing on my credit reports with XXXX and Experian. 

Reporting and Documentation : Following the guidance provided by the credit bureaus, I filed the appropriate identity theft report with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ). I also submitted an affidavit of dispute, along with three forms of identification to both XXXX and Experian. 

Non-Compliance by XXXX and Experian : Despite my adherence to all necessary procedures, XXXX has responded with a letter stating that my disputes do not appear to be from me, which is both incorrect and unlawful. I have made multiple attempts to rectify this situation by providing all requested documentation, including my FTC report and a sworn affidavit. However, both XXXX and Experian have failed to open a proper investigation into my claims and rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Fraudulent Account XXXX : One of the fraudulent accounts that I am disputing is with XXXX, account number XXXX, with an amount of {$480.00}. 

Violations : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Violations : XXXX and Experian are in violation of FCRA provisions, which mandate that credit reporting agencies must conduct a thorough investigation upon receiving a dispute along with appropriate identity theft documentation. 

Failure to Conduct a Proper Investigation : By dismissing my dispute and failing to open a proper investigation, XXXX and Experian are neglecting their legal obligations under FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), which requires a reasonable investigation of disputed information.

State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
" 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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Complaint narrative:
I learned of a collection debt from XXXX XXXX in Texas, on XX/XX/year> through a collection agency ( LVNV Funding LLC ). XXXX XXXX filed a collection claim against me, for an energy /utility debt in Texas XXXX a state I have never lived in. This is a case of identity theft, as my social security number and name were utilized to open this account. I have reported XXXX XXXX  and XXXX to the XXXX. I reported XXXX XXXX to the FTC because this involved stolen social security number. XXXX XXXX informed me they requested XXXX to stop the collection process, but as of today this has not been done. XXXX will send me an affidavit to dispute this within the collection agency. 

However, there are many red flags in dealing with XXXX XXXX, and I failed to include this additional information in my FTC complaint. My FTC complaint was general but I need to disclose information XXXX XXXX requested from me, that to me is very suspect-especially considering this transaction involved identity theft. XXXX XXXX representative, XXXX XXXX, informed his supervisor stated I needed to send in the following documents to dispute this charge ; police report ( which sounds reasonable ), a copy of my driver 's license, and a copy of my mortgage deed. The last two documents make me feel extremely uncomfortable. This is such sensitive information when already dealing with identity theft-it makes me question whether this energy company is committing fraud against me? 

I called several collection agencies to get their expert opinion on collection processes, and asked if it was a normal or typical practice to ask consumers for copies of drivers licenses and mortgage deeds. Not one collection agency has ever heard of this practice? 

The agency 's name : XXXX XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX, XXXX XXXX
