Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Last XXXX I made a charge to my childrens place card ( through commenity ). I paid it in full in XXXX. I somehow accrued a {$2.00} interest fee for the following month. I had no idea I had this charge because I paid the balance. Im signed up for paperless billing but never received an email. Never received a phone call either. I went to use my card like I do every XXXX to keep it active and it wouldnt go through. Thats when I called and found out that they have been charging me late fees every month with no emails, no phone calls, no letters in the mail. I also have no access to online banking ( Im assuming bc the account is closed? ) when I called they said my balance was {$230.00} and I set up a payment plan. But I also asked for documentation of the plan and also documentation of the proof that they sent me paperless statements saying I owed them. Again, I received NOTHING. They told me that they do not call for small balances and they dont settle balances. They also said they dont send any documentation of payment plans. It reads scam to me. And how are they legally allowed to do all this with out informing me at all?! I had NO CLUE. And not to mention affecting my credit over a {$2.00} balance that I had no idea that posted AFTER I paid my balance in full. Yes, I should be responsible for the {$2.00} and maybe a small fee but {$230.00} and countless credit reports, is extreme. This can not be ok.

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted accounts, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. 
As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Experian ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. 


EQUIFAX 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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
