Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 to be removed/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. 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!

Complaint narrative:
Re : NCA ACCOUNT NUMBER UNKNOWN Dear NCA ( NATIONAL CREDIT ADJ ), I am writing to formally demand that you cease all communication with me regarding the above-referenced account, effective immediately. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ), I request that you cease all collection activities, including but not limited to phone calls, letters, or any other forms of communication, concerning this account. 

In addition, this letter serves as a formal demand for you to immediately cease reporting this account to any credit reporting agencies. I believe this account to be the result of identity theft, which I have previously disputed. Attached is a copy of my identity theft report for your records. Since this account is fraudulent, it should not be reflected on my credit report, and I expect you to take immediate action to remove it. 

This letter does not serve as an acknowledgment of any debt or liability. I do not consent to any communication by phone, at my place of employment, or home regarding this matter. If you intend to take legal action, any further communications should be limited to written notice of such action as required by law.

Failure to comply with my request may result in further legal actions. 

I expect written confirmation within 30 days that you have ceased all communication and collection activities and that you have notified all credit reporting agencies to remove this account from my credit report. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

State: IL

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
