Complaint narrative:
Subject : Dispute of Credit Reporting Error XXXX XXXX Account To Whom It May Concern, I Will allow No Longer than 20 days for the Negative Remark to be Removed From My Consumer Report before Pursuing Legal Action. 

I am writing to file a formal dispute with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding a credit reporting error related to my XXXX XXXX account. The account is inaccurately reporting a balance of {$33.00} when, in fact, the account has a recorded balance of {$0.00} out of a {$1000.00} limit. This discrepancy is not only misleading but also fraudulent, and I am prepared to file an FTC report to support this claim if necessary. 

Account Information : Account Holder Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : [ Account Number ] Balance as Per Account : {$0.00} Credit Limit : {$1000.00} The credit reporting error in question pertains to my XXXX XXXX account. Despite the account reflecting a {$0.00} balance and being well below the credit limit, it is inexplicably reporting a balance of {$33.00}. This erroneous reporting has negatively impacted my credit score and financial standing. I have attached supporting documentation, including a screenshot of the account summary, to this dispute for your reference. 

I am deeply concerned about the fraudulent reporting of this account balance, which could potentially harm my creditworthiness. In light of this, I kindly request that the CFPB intervenes to facilitate the following resolution : 1. Immediate Correction of Reporting Error : XXXX XXXX must promptly correct the erroneous reporting of the account balance, ensuring it accurately reflects a {$0.00} balance as indicated in my account records. 

2. Cease Negative Reporting : XXXX XXXX should immediately cease any negative reporting associated with this account. Negative reporting, including delinquency or late payment indicators, should be removed. 

3. Confirmation of Corrected Reporting : XXXX XXXX must provide written confirmation to me within 30 days of receiving this dispute and resolution request, affirming that the account has been accurately reported with a {$0.00} balance and that any negative reporting has been removed. 

If necessary, I am prepared to file a report with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) to support my claim of fraudulent reporting. However, I hope to resolve this matter amicably and promptly through the CFPB 's intervention. 

I trust that the CFPB will investigate this issue and ensure that XXXX XXXX complies with the applicable regulations and guidelines governing accurate and fair credit reporting. I kindly request that you acknowledge the receipt of this complaint and keep me informed of any actions taken to address this matter. 


Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
