Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because I recently reviewed a copy of my credit report and identified a fraudulent account. This account is not mine and has been reported without my authorization. 

Fraudulent accounts on my credit report violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Specifically : FCRA Section 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) requires that credit reporting agencies block information resulting from identity theft within four business days of receiving proper documentation.

FDCPA Section 807 ( 15 U.S.C. 1692e ) prohibits the use of false or misleading information in debt collection, including the reporting of fraudulent accounts.

This fraudulent account has negatively impacted my credit score and financial standing.

Complaint narrative:
My account 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.

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!

Few minutes later I checked my emails she didn't send it called her back and she promised to send in XXXX min XXXX later I called her back stating I didn't receive yet. She promised again. After XXXX hours we received her emails my wife and I without the attached documents... later she would apologize about that and said ... see the attached shot screenshot. 
The problem is they waste time maybe because the rate lock will expire on XX/XX/XXXX and they will increase everything. That's not fair. Finally she said we will wait for XXXX XXXX to return on Monday. The question is : why she called me today? And why she didn't send the attached documents for us to fill out and send her back in order to closes next Tuesday? I think she doesn't have anything anymore to ask me as we already submitted everything they asked at least XXXX times. She told about the contract again and XXXX... it's too much
