Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter asking for the documentation you used to verify these late payments, such as a transactional history, since what's reporting is not in line with any of my records and I know for certain that what's reporting is incorrect and inaccurate. Late payments affect my scores by a great deal, for sure you know that. How would you feel if the late payments reporting are not true but it keeps on weighing down your scores. SEE ATTACHED.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the accuracy of a charge-off listed on my credit report under the account # [ Account Number ]. I have received a 1099-C form for this account, indicating that the debt was canceled. According to the Internal Revenue Code ( IRC ) 6050P, a 1099-C form is issued when a creditor cancels a debt of {$600.00} or more. This means the debt has been legally forgiven and should no longer be reported as a charge-off.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 ( a ), I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. As the debt has been canceled and a 1099-C form has been issued, the reporting of this charge-off is both inaccurate and misleading.

I request that you conduct a reinvestigation of this matter under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and remove the charge-off from my credit report. If the information can not be verified, it must be deleted from my credit file according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ).

Please provide me with written confirmation that this item has been corrected and removed. If you are unable to verify the accuracy of this information, it must be deleted from my credit report as required by law.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your respons

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX EXPERIAN 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 to be updated.

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 EXPERIAN 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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section XXXX ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

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. ''

Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Texas repossession laws state the vehicle can not be sold within 10 days, the car was taken on XX/XX/XXXX in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend when calls couldn't be made to make a payment and when account was removed from the app, taken from repo lot on XX/XX/XXXX, sold on XX/XX/XXXX all without a notice of intent provided. I was told it was sent on through certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX, Today is XX/XX/XXXX and I still have not received anything. The Deficiency and surplus letter were not provided to be after the sale, and I was told on XX/XX/XXXX it was mailed out through certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX. Again, I have not received either of the two and I called and stated that on a recorded line. They would have confirmation that I received it through tracking, or it gets returned to sender according to the post office. The vehicle sold for XXXX and that amount was applied on XXXX, leaving a remainder of XXXX. Why was I asked to pay XXXX in full by the XXXX XXXX XXXX auction lot to receive my car. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, last 6 of XXXX # XXXX. I was only offered one solution by the charge off department, and that was to do a sales hold of XXXX, XXXX dollars, a max of two times. That was only offered after it was at the auction and that just prolongs the hold. I believe there was never an attempt to collect past due, they cut corners to get the car back. I have documentation from the credit bureaus stating the XXXX past due reported was 90 days. If they do not report correctly, how I am to trust this? The bridgecrestXXXX XXXX company doesn't state this, and I spoke with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Compliance specialist at bridgecrest on a recorded line on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, she stated the account was charged off at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX due to being 126 days past due, then I was told Text and emails are a courtesy, and a phone call is the most accurate way to communicate. The app is where customers pay, and should have the most up to date, real time info, unless they are trying to hide something. This has impacted my family greatly ; I am unable to get to and from work without my vehicle and obtaining a vehicle with the false information on my credit is hindering me from getting another vehicle. They keep reporting on this account even though it was charged off on XX/XX/XXXX. I made a complaint earlier last month and they attempted to update the info but it's still incorrect.

Complaint narrative:
Direct Express is refusing to allow me access to my money due to a error on their part. 

Last week I had to verify my identity by sending them my ID and answering questions.. upon unlocking my account... ( during the same phone call that I verified my identity ) I updated my information. ( Phone number, email & address ) The representative told me my information had been updated and I could use it to access my account next time i call. 

This week my account went back in the fraud department due to my error of keying in the wrong information during a call. Once transferred me to the representative ( fraud department ) I gave them the information that I updated the last time I verified my identity. 
They said wrong information you have to send us your ID.

I let them know that it was the right information and there's a system error and I wa n't to have my last phone call when I verified my identity reviewed because I updated my information during that call as well.

They're refusing to review the call. And refusing to check the system for errors. And refusing to allow me access to my XXXX payment from the federal government. Due to their error I'm currently homeless sleeping outside, without the proper weather gear in XXXX and I felt like I was XXXX XXXX XXXX last night it was so cold. This is literally a life or death situation. 

I have done everything right on my part I should not be restricted from accessing my funds. That's illegal to do that. I'm headed to the federal courthouse to file a lawsuit against them. This is not the first time they have done this.

Complaint narrative:
DELTA MANAGEMENT GROUP and XXXX XXXX XXXX This debt collector has engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices in violation of the FDCPA. They reported an account that I neither agreed to nor signed a contract for. A valid legal contract requires the consent and signature of both parties, and I had no involvement in this agreement. Furthermore, they failed to follow the proper five-step validation procedure, further constituting unfair practices. Under the FDCPA, I am entitled to {$1000.00} per violation, and my rights have clearly been violated. I am requesting that this company immediately remove this account from all three major credit reporting agencies and compensate me for these violations. If this is not resolved, I will forward this matter to my litigation attorney.
