Complaint narrative:
Ive requested that these two accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX  on Experian be deleted for they are harming my profile with the negligence of inaccurate information being reported. Experian has failed to delete these two accounts that is reporting inaccurate. According to FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681 both XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX are reporting inaccurate payment history and Experian rebuttal was that the accounts were verified and accurate. Attached will be a letter requesting the verification of the information they are opposing to be accurate along with the payment history that both are. Also due to the response of Experian saying the account was verified and accurate they are in violation of FCRA 1681e for not ensuring that all information in my file is accurate and current.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION 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. 


XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION 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
