Complaint narrative:
I checked my credit on XXXX to for the first time see that my account was closed. 
I went into my verified email XXXX and did not find ANY indication or notification that this was completed. 

I spoke to XXXX XXXX a XXXX in the accounts team, he did not give me an employee ID number- but he gave his last name, he said that what more than likely happened is that someone used my information to close it and that all he could do is put a note on the backend of the account which I told him was completely unacceptable. 

I received NO notification that this was closed by email nor mail and then when I call to tell them that i did NOT authorize this, they hit me with the we can only reinstate within XXXX hours of it closing ' which passed - they told me this was closed on the XX/XX/24. 

I spoke to another manager, XXXX ( wouldn't provide last name ) - just told me that they don't need authorization of both card holders to close the account ... but the first agent said that they need both primary card holders authorization to close the account. 

They stated that there was ability to file this as fraud .... 
I need help this is terrible! 

XXXX also advised that there is an internal system called the Adverse Action where they can file disputes but they told me that it was DOWN right now. That is was unavailable, can not use at the moment... but i could call back in XXXX hours and use it? She told me that this wasn't an available option? She then HUNG up on me.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : The payment was made on time. My records show that the payment was submitted in XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, well before the due date. I have attached bank statements and payment confirmation receipts as evidence of this timely payment. 
Additionally, I did not receive any prior notice or warning of a delinquency, further suggesting that there was an error in processing or crediting my payment. 
This inaccurate late payment entry has resulted in unjust negative consequences on my credit score, affecting my ability to secure favorable credit terms.

Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I went to the teller. He came back and said that my card declined & their machine was down and to go to the ATM. When I got to the ATM my account was in the negative. I called the bank they said it was a pending transaction and I waived my right to have it stopped. The bank withdrawal went through anyway. All they said I could do is wait for my dispute to be finished.
