Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I'm writing out of desperation. 

I'm a XXXX XXXX  XXXX customer, and have been using their credit card to pay off a balance transfer. I had set up automatic payment so that {$800.00} gets deducted every month. However, for whatever reason, this feature was turned off without my knowledge, and as a result my credit card balance went unpaid for one payment cycle. I didn't sign-in to my bank account because I assumed it was on auto pilot. 

It's weird thaXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX didn't notify immediately but instead waited XXXX so that they can charge me late fees. It wasn't until a week ago that I received a notice from them about the outstanding balance. I immediately called XXXX and they re-set up automatic billing ( which still doesn't show up when I log into my online account ). However, the damage has been done as my credit score went from a 727 to a 620. If they had notified me immediately after the first payment was missed, this would never have happened. It is irresponsible of them to wait until late fees have been added and the late payment has been reported to the credit bureau to contact me, especially given that I have never in my 20 years of being a banking customer missed a payment. 

I've always had excellent credit, have NEVER missed a payment in my life, so this is truly a major blow for my financial situation as I'm about to look for an apartment in the XXXX area but with a 620 score, I won't qualify for housing and am looking at the possibility of being homeless. I'm trying to rectify this situation and would appreciate your help. XXXX XXXX XXXX needs to be held accountable for what they did. 

I would like your help in removing the late payment from my credit report. 

From what I can see, they purposefully disabled my auto-pay, did not notify me that the payment didn't go through so that they can charge me late fees. In my 20 years of being a bank customer with many different banks including XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, etc. I have never encountered anything like this. However, I suspect XXXX is doing this to a lot of customers to generate additional revenue in fees. They need to be investigated and stopped. This is how regular, financially responsible people like myself can go from financially stable to destitute and homeless. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. I hope you can help me get this situation sorted out and hold XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX accountable.

My MERRILL+ Visa Signature card was used to set the autopay, but I don't know why it doesn't apply this time, and BOA charges me {$0.00} interest on XX/XX/XXXX even though I paid the statement balance as soon as I notice this problem.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
All my accounts say " in good standing '', " paid ; never late '' ; only have one open credit card. Worked to pay off all credit except for my one active credit card. Shouldn't that be good for my credit? Instead Experian has just lowered my FICO score from good to fair. Why? Can Experian not count? I had better scores when I had too much credit and bad spending practices. Their reporting practices are unfair. Are they trying to say that too much credit is good? So who are they really helping- the consumer or the companies that want you to owe them money? Paying off your accounts is the responsible thing ; atleast that is what I was taught. But instead, I am rewarded with lower FICO scores so that makes it look like I am a bad credit risk when in actuality, I am really good at paying off my financial responsibilities. You should investigate the credit reporting activities of Experian, especially unfair FICO scores.
