Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 rep
orting 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:
I was contacted via phone about a balance I owed for {$120.00} and I let them know I was waiting for my check to come to pay that balance and the upcoming payment. During this time I am literally in the hospital with a sick child for an XXXX XXXX and shes hospitalized. They continued to try and get in contact with me so someone they have reached out to someone that I personally know. Once called I was told that clearly they asked was I XXXX XXXX ( female ) and hes said no but he knows who I am and he being male. Instead of saying they were trying to reach me for business matter or anything professionally without disclosing my private information or protecting my consumer rights she ( the bank person ) decided it would be ok to tell him that she needs me to pay my balance on my vehicle that I was behind on. Im behind {$120.00} and I was clear when I spoke to the previous person it would be paid. This is beyond ridiculous, embarrassing, and violated my rights as a consumer! This person isnt even close enough to me to have known or should know my private matters ESPECIALLY when I have rights. I would like the resolution to be monetary compensation because Im sure if this was done to me shes doing this to other people! Again, my child is in a XXXX and I have to worry about someone calling me to tell me they know my personal business that I didnt give the rights to disclose with ANYONE.

Complaint narrative:
According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), the term " consumer report '' explicitly excludes any report that contains information solely about transactions or experiences between the consumer ( myself ) and the person or company making the report. This legal provision implies that the specific details of our direct transactions, such as payments, account activities, or any similar experiences, should not be reported to credit reporting agencies as part of a " consumer report. '' However, it has come to my attention that such information has been included in my credit report. This inclusion appears to contradict the exclusion specified by the FCRA, which could lead to inaccuracies and potential harm to my credit profile.
