This letter serves as an official notice of your non-compliance or negligence with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and outlines the corrective actions required to rectify this issue promptly.

Complaint narrative:
I have had numerous problems for the three years I have had these accounts and they are constantly harassing me and my son and make it very inconvenient to continue a business business relationship. I use my credit card that has a secured {$400.00} limit. I overpay my balance 3 to 5 times a month. And I use it for everything. I am constantly being blocked or fraud alerts are out on almost every time we use our cards. I spent over XXXX on my card this year and have been a loyal customer for over three years. But I have never been offered to upgrade and was ignored twice when I asked to raise my credit limit. Then I was told to overpay my amount due and it should let me raise the available credit. This worked and I used my card for a rental car which I have been in a rental car for the last five months from XXXX rental cars. They made a mistake on my last rental and now they won't fix the problem. I have been impacted on my credit report and denied credit because of this error for the last three months. I have. Proof of there error fromt he papers they sent me denied my claim and took the money back again. This is very stressful and just want the money I am due and will be satisfied.

Complaint narrative:
I have always made my payments on time, and I am certain of this. What I am not sure about is why this company is reporting me as late in certain months, which should not be happening. According to USC 1666b, any billing errors should be corrected, or they will owe me {$1000.00} for each account reporting inaccurately.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX, XXXX, & Equifax continue to report incorrect information listed on the account XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX. There are several late payments listed that are different from each consumer agency. Neither consumer agency provided evidence that supports their claim and I do not care who is right and who is wrong I do know reasonable efforts must be made to investigate the accuracy of all information. 

XXXX is reporting late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX + XX/XX/XXXX XXXX is reporting late payment for XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX to XXXX of XXXX Equifax is reporting late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX + XX/XX/XXXX. 

This account can not report this way and each consumer agency failed to provide accuracy which has caused me harm. I would like the evidence that they obtained to prove this information is correct. 

( 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.

( b ) Grace period If an open end consumer credit plan provides a time period within which an obligor may repay any portion of the credit extended without incurring an additional finance charge, such additional finance charge may not be imposed with respect to such portion of the credit extended for the billing cycle of which such period is a part, unless a statement which includes the amount upon which the finance charge for the period is based was mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the date specified in the statement by which payment must be made in order to avoid imposition of that finance charge.
