" After reviewing my consumer report, I noticed that there was still late payment on my consumer report which have never been late because the creditor failed to provide any proof or evidence so this needs to be corrected immediately to paid as agreed and never late. This account is related to a transaction and experience that falls under the EXCLUSION section of the FCRA 's definitions, rules of construction section. It was also reported without my written consent and therefore is a result of identity theft ( as defined by the Federal Trade Commission ), and the account SHALL be Corrected. This account is not related to any transaction authorized by me, the consumer as I did not give written instructions to your agency to report this, which is a violation of the permissible purpose section of the FCRA, which holds your agency name liable for damages of at least {$1000.00} per the civil liability section for willful non-compliance. Please CORRECT this item from my consumer report! According to15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports The Law clearly states : ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I clearly did not give your agency written authorization or written instructions to report this information. Your agency is conspiring with these creditors against me in committing aggravated identity theft and I have sustained defamation of my character, just to name a couple damages should this matter escalate to court. 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures- ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general if, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall -- i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX XXXX 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. 


EQUIFAX 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

Ive noticed several unfamiliar items on my credit report that suggest my identity may have been stolen, as I did not authorize these accounts. I've raised this issue before, and Im now requesting the prompt removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence is causing me significant stress, as they misrepresent my true credit history and financial behavior. This situation has been challenging to navigate. If we can not resolve this issue quickly, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek a solution. These inaccuracies are hindering my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as buying a house and supporting my family. I hope we can address this matter swiftly.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Lakeview, stating that my monthly payment was increasing from {$1500.00} to {$2100.00} per month. Every year that they have service my account, they have managed to increase my monthly payment. This year they said it was because my homeowners insurance was increasing by {$270.00} per month. They said it is their policy to pay the full amount up front and then charge the customer double the amount of the increase each month, to pay them back and pay for the following year. This is very clearly just an attempt to XXXX up the price of the monthly mortgage payment, so that their customers can't make the payment and will default on their mortgage. So, I changed insurance companies, to one that is more reasonable and decided to pay the insurance monthly myself, rather than via escrow, where I would have to pay double each month. I informed the insurance company that I would make the payment and setup an automatic withdrawal for payment. Then, I contacted Lakeview to update my insurance and inform them that I would not be paying by escrow any longer. They told me that the choice to pay m y own insurance is not up to me and that they decide if I am allowed to do that. They said they would get back to me within 5 business days with their decision. Then, this morning, I received a notification from my insurance company, XXXX, that my homeowners insurance had been switched to escrow. So, I called them and asked how it had changed. They stated that Lakeview had contacted them and told them that I requested it to be changed, which is a complete and total lie. I literally spend 30 minutes on the phone with them yesterday, telling them that I absolutely did not want to do that. Is it legal for them to do that? To lie to my insurance company, and make policy changes that I have repeatedly stated that I absolutely do not want?

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, Capital One checking debited my account for XXXX for payment of my mortgage as has been done for years. ACH is not available even though the payment goes to another bank, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). The check was never sent. I received a past due and late fee by mail on or about XX/XX/XXXX. Inquiry with Capital One by phone revealed the check was still outstanding and I received no notice from them. They refunded the amount they improperly debited on XX/XX/XXXX and paid me for the late fee. A replacement payment was initiated through the same system, Capitol ONe 's website, on XX/XX/XXXX. I criticized their system for not alerting anyone that such a large check was outstanding for weeks. Yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, after seeing no change in my mortgage balance ( An interim payment for the same amount was properly processed ) for the month of XXXX, Capital One informed the same mistake had happened again. My account debited 10 days ago for funds that were never sent. No alert was given to anyone about the outstanding check, and no refund has yet been issued. As of now, they have " opened a claim. '' They have still reduced my balance for thousands in a high-interest rate environment and have no intention of improving their system.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
