I have previously disputed Experian, Equifax and Transunion regarding multiple accounts that are inaccurate. As of today, I have not received any responses or proof that they are doing proper investigation with my dispute. They ignored my rights to obtain an accurate credit report.

My accounts 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 reported to be removed/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. 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!

Complaint narrative:
The company is willfully furnishing false, inconsistent, and misleading information on my credit report in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681, and Metro 2 reporting standards. The tradeline contains contradictory dates, account statuses, and payment histories across the credit reporting agencies, creating a materially inaccurate consumer file. I have made multiple written requests for verification in compliance with FCRA 607 ( b ) and 611, yet the company has failed to correct or validate the reporting. This ongoing inaccurate reporting is causing measurable harm to my creditworthiness and appears to be a deliberate act of negligent and/or willful noncompliance under FCRA 616 and 617, which entitles me to statutory, actual, and punitive damages.
