Complaint narrative:
My account with ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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 reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed.

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 XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have a credit account showing on my credit report from Bank of America. This account is erroneous. I have disputed this account multiple times with the credit bureaus. Each attempt was unsuccessful. I contacted Bank of America by means of phone calls and written communication multiple times in an attempt to correct this incorrect mark. I had requested detailed information in writing to show how this could have ended up in my name. I had received nothing from the creditor nor any assistance at all. 

This erroneous account has negatively impacted my credit score, effecting my financial standing and overall well-being. I am trying to buy a home and this incorrect information is causing my family great distress. 

Due to Bank of America or the credit bureaus willingness to assist with this problem, I am requesting an investigation by CFPB. I feel this is a grave violation of my rights.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Dispute of Late Payment and Request for Correction To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute a late payment that has been reported on my account as follows : Account Number : XXXX I believe this late payment is being reported incorrectly and I am requesting that it be promptly corrected. My dispute is based on the following points : Legal Basis for Dispute According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 603, a consumer report should contain information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Late payments, being transactions, should accurately reflect the actual timing of payment and not include erroneous late payment notations that misrepresent my payment history. 
Nonpublic Information and Violation My nonpublic information, which includes the timing of payments, must be accurately reported by the creditor. Failure to do so constitutes a violation of the FCRA and negatively impacts my creditworthiness and financial reputation.

Timing of Payments ( 15 U.S. Code 1666b ) Under 15 U.S. Code 1666b, a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose if the payment is received by the creditor in accordance with the creditor 's payment instructions. 
Request for Correction Given the inaccuracies and the legal requirements for accurate credit reporting, I request the following actions be taken immediately : Correct the payment history on my account to accurately reflect the timely nature of my payments. 
Remove any late payment notations from my credit report associated with this account. 
Provide written confirmation that these corrections have been made. 
Please investigate this matter and rectify the situation promptly. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I expect this dispute to be investigated and resolved within 30 days of your receipt of this letter. Additionally, I request written confirmation of the corrections and an updated copy of my credit report reflecting these changes. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response and resolution. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

MY BMW REFERENCE NUMBER : XXXX After my lease ended on my BMW, I purchased my BMW XXXX from BMW Financial on the XXXX XX/XX/XXXX for {$25000.00} They sent through the Bill Of Sale , and the certificate, and also included a letter, an affidavit of correction. They had had incorrectly inputted the mileage. On the Title it says XXXX miles, instead of what was correct, XXXX ( someone had written 7 instead of 1 ). 

When I tried to sell it in XX/XX/XXXX, I was offered {$22000.00} ( the mileage at this time was XXXX ). When I showed them the title, and they saw it read XXXX, they dropped the price to {$15000.00}, in spite of the affidavit of correction. 

I booked in time in at the XXXX to get the new mileage officially recorded for a new Certificate of Title at the first available date : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX said it can not expedite and it would take two months. 
I have visited the XXXX three times to no avail since to see if they can get it sent through quicker : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX As of XX/XX/XXXX, I still do not have the title.
