Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXXXXXX : I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information reported on my credit report by XXXX XXXX. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 611, I am requesting an immediate investigation and correction of this collections account. If the information can not be verified, it must be deleted promptly. I am disputing the validity of this debt in its entirety. The collections account in question is reported by XXXX XXXX and appears on my credit report with the following details : reported on XX/XX/XXXX, with a balance of {$460.00}. The account is listed as " Closed '' with a status of " In Collections/Charge-off. '' The account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, and closed on XX/XX/XXXX. The remarks include " Charged off as bad debt '' and " Canceled by credit grantor. '' I believe this information is inaccurate for several reasons. First, I have not received any documentation or validation of this debt from XXXX XXXXXXXX, as required by FCRA Section 809 ( b ) ( Validation of Debts ). According to the FCRA, all items on my credit report must be accurate and verifiable. Second, there is a discrepancy in the reported balance and credit limit. The balance of {$460.00} is shown as 156 % of my accounts limit, which is not accurate or reasonable. Additionally, the account shows a past-due amount of {$460.00}, which does not align with my records. The presence of this incorrect collections account and charge-off status is negatively impacting my creditworthiness. Under FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), furnishers of information are required to report accurate information. Therefore, I am requesting that you review all recent statements and payment records associated with this collections account, including the most recent credit report. The balance, account status, and remarks appear to be incorrect. If the information can not be substantiated, it must be removed from my credit report immediately. Please send me the results of your investigation at your earliest convenience. Additionally, if the investigation shows that the account is incorrect, please provide me with a revised copy of my credit report reflecting the corrected information. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX Mortgage XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH capital XXXX and 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 reported in those account to be removed. 

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. 


XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
