Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Request for Removal of Late Payment Record Dear XXXX, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request the removal of a late payment entry associated with my account XXXX under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, creditors have an obligation to report accurate information to credit reporting agencies. I believe that the late payments were reported on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX does not accurately reflect my payment history, and therefore violates this provision. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1666b and 15 U.S. Code 1681i, I have the right to dispute any inaccuracies and to have them investigated. I request that you review my payment history and consider removing the late payment from my credit report. 

I have always valued my relationship with XXXX and have made all my payments on time, except for this instance, which I believe that the late payments were a result of an issue with the account being transferred and miscommunication between lenders, which should not have resulted in a delinquency being recorded. Also, I had provided documentation to resolve the transfer issues with XXXX prior to the reporting of these payments. 

I kindly ask that you provide me with a response to this request within 30 days. Should you find that the information reported is incorrect, I would appreciate your assistance in correcting it with the credit reporting agencies. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I have identified multiple errors that have adversely affected my credit score. These errors are not a true reflection of my credit history, and I believe they may have resulted from clerical mistakes, identity theft, or outdated information. I am requesting that these inaccuracies be promptly investigated and removed to ensure my credit report accurately reflects my financial responsibility. The incorrect information has caused undue harm to my credit score, which can affect my ability to secure credit and other financial opportunities. I trust that you will address this matter with the urgency it requires and make the necessary corrections.

Complaint narrative:
This now marks 200+ days with no dispute results. Company was supposed to submit online response the XXXX. They closed dispute with no remarks. This was after they were told they only had 15 days due to failure 30 days ago and they gave themselves 30 + 15 and still failed to resolve issues. Company lack of care has resulted in failure to apply for auto credit due to failures to investigate.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Request for Removal of Late Payment Record Dear DEPTEDXXXX, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request the removal of a late payment entry associated with my account XXXX under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

I believe that the late payments were reported on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. does not accurately reflect my payment history, and therefore violates this provision. 


Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1666b and 15 U.S. Code 1681i, I have the right to dispute any inaccuracies and to have them investigated. I request that you review my payment history and consider removing the late payment from my credit report. I have always valued my relationship with DEPTEDXXXX and have made all my payments on time, except for this instance, which I have identified several factors that suggest an error in the reporting process : Account Transfer and Miscommunication : The account was transferred and there was a delay in processing the transfer. Any late payments that were reported during this period should not have occurred as I was under the impression that the account was in transition, which can be confirmed through payment records. 
Payment Processing Delays : There may have been a miscommunication between XXXX and the servicer during the transition. I had initiated payments during the normal billing cycle, which are reflected in my transaction history prior to the account transfer. This delay should not have resulted in a 120-day late payment.

System Error in Reporting : I had already raised a dispute, which was marked as resolved. However, the 120-day late payment still remains inaccurately on my credit report with TransUnion, indicating that the dispute was not appropriately resolved.

I kindly ask that you provide me with a response to this request within 30 days. Should you find that the information reported is incorrect, I would appreciate your assistance in correcting it with the credit reporting agencies. 


Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Systematic Error in Reporting : Despite the account being closed and transferred, the late payment was still reported for several months. This reporting error persisted even though no payments were missed, and all balances were settled before the transfer. 
I kindly ask that you provide me with a response to this request within 30 days. Should you find that the information reported is incorrect, I would appreciate your assistance in correcting it with the credit reporting agencies.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I sent a formal letter to XXXX XXXX requesting validation of a debt as per federal law 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of Debts. As of today, several months have passed, and I have not received any validation from XXXX XXXX. 
This failure to provide debt validation within the required 30-day period, as mandated by law, is not only non-compliant but also illegal.

Given that XXXX XXXX did not validate this debt within the legally required timeframe, I hereby demand that Experian immediately remove this wrongfully reported account from my credit report.
