I am writing to humbly request a goodwill adjustment to remove late payment records from my XXXX XXXX credit card account. I deeply value my relationship with your company and appreciate the credit opportunities you have provided me. 

I take full responsibility for the late payments reported on my account. Over the past few years, I encountered unexpected financial hardships that temporarily affected my ability to make timely payments. These difficulties included being a single parent and taking care of a household alone. However, despite these challenges, I have since worked diligently to improve my financial situation. 

The following payments were reported as late : XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX Since overcoming my financial difficulties, I have made significant strides in managing my finances more responsibly. I have remained committed to making timely payments and improving my overall credit profile. Given my efforts and my positive relationship with your institution, I kindly request that you consider removing the late payment records from my credit report as a goodwill gesture. 

I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting and appreciate your consideration in this matter. This adjustment would greatly assist me in achieving my financial goals, including improving my credit score and securing future financial stability. I genuinely value my relationship with Comenity Bank and look forward to continuing it on a positive note. 

If you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at XXXX and XXXX. Thank you for your time and consideration. I appreciate your help and look forward to your response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Even after multiple submissions, the credit bureaus have failed to provide any response, confirm an investigation, or correct the disputed information. This lack of action clearly violates the FCRA, which requires credit bureaus to investigate disputes and respond within 30 days.

Complaint narrative:
My account with TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 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 XXXX  days before the payment due date.

TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams.
