Complaint narrative:
On ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ) you received my dispute regarding some transactions and late payments that you and ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) furnished to my consumer report. When I disputed these exclusions using the FCRA I received a response from you ( XXXX, Experian ) stating that the account was verified!!! 

I am not sure why you responded with Verified as I did not ask for verification of anything! The law clearly states that ; ( 2 ) Exclusions.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; how can you validate a dispute regarding information that is excluded from the consumer report? The law says transactions are not apart of my consumer report! So how can you validate a late payment?

Further more lets take a look at 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.

You have no proof that this alleged transaction was late.

I am requesting all information pursuant to Rule 1002 on 15 USC 1666b and the procedure that was used to authenticate accuracy.

What reasonable procedure that you adopted designed to ensure that each periodic statement including information required by section 1637b was mailed or delivered to the consumer no later than 21 days before the pay
ment due date?

The only way for you to validate a late payment is to ensure that 15 USC 1666b was done in compliance METRO2 compliance and FCRA compliance!! to the specifications of the law 15 USC 1666b! Furthermore, this process must be certified by an agent that the information is accurate.

I am requesting the Certification of accuracy and the agent/s that were involved in the certification process, that certified that the information is complete and accurate. 
Failure to provide this information clearly admits that proper steps and certification were not taken in compliance with law 15 USC 1666b, and you ( XXXX, Experian ) have fraudulently verified an account without a reasonable procedure as required by law. 
For any creditor to treat a payment as late you must prove that : 1 ) The information required under 15 USC 1637 ( b ) of this title was mailed out or delivered 21 Days before the payment due date please provide the proof that this information was mailed out or delivered 21 days before the statement date.

2 ) 15 USC 1637 ( b ) is very specific on all required information needed or that must be mailed or delivered to the consumer! 
You have 10 days to send me all the required information. 
{ XXXX, Experian } your reply to my dispute is Verified, have you verified what the requirements are for a creditor to treat a payment as late? The fact that you verified the information means that you are in possession of the information that was sent or mailed 21 Days before the statement date, and you are in possession of a copy of all information from 15 USC 1637 ( b ) and the Certified mail tracking number that proved the delivery of said information for you to verify this item as late! I am requesting a copy of the information pursuant 15 USC 1637 ( b ) and the tracking number that was used to prove delivery of said information to me the consumer 21 days before my statement date regarding this account.

15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ( 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 the 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.
