Two payments were made the month XX/XX/year>. One on XX/XX/year> and the other on XX/XX/year> for the entire balance. However payment, didnt post to my credit card until XX/XX/year>, causing the 30 day late. Please see attached highlighted payment history. from my bank transaction list.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I got a Credit card offer from Zales XXXX  years ago when I went to the store to buy my wedding rings. They sold me the Idea that I will get XXXX months promotion deal if I purchase XXXX dollars ( installments payment ). I made every single payment monthly and at the en of the period they found the way to state I didnt pay my promotional offer on time., and charged me {$2000.00} of interest. 

They said I had to pay the promotion before the credit card cut day. I called and spoke with XXXX people on the bank and they just said there is nothi they can do as per I called more than 3 day after XX/XX/XXXX. ( Day that my credit supposed to cut and I supposed to have XXXX day to pay ) they insisted that for promotion I dont have those XXXX  days and had to pay on the XXXX. Thing that do not happened to me before and I really have use this kind of promotions with other stores/banks. 

I think that this is a mala praxis and they are stealing money from the consumer as per they do not inform the consumers of the difference in the way they should pay Comenity Bank for this promotions. 

Nobody would take a CC promotional offer if will not be paid as a Credit card., and also if a consumer have a good history of credit and made the whole XXXX payments on time, how come they just get charged XXXX dollar if there is not a misunderstanding! 

Bank refused to do anything to solve this issue even after a complaint every were including XXXX 

Im not the only one who has been complaining about this issue and this bank should be investigated as per they do this and more things like this to the clients. 

I dont think I have to pay {$2000.00} just because they are not doing business correctly and they are abusing of the consumer

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against this agency for consistently reporting inaccurate information on my credit report, despite my repeated efforts to dispute and rectify the errors. 

This blatant disregard for my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) has caused significant financial and emotional distress, and I kindly request your intervention to resolve this matter appropriately. 

I submitted a dispute regarding multiple inaccuracies on my credit report. According to the FCRA, the agency is obligated to conduct a reasonable investigation into the disputed information within 30 days. However, despite this requirement, They failed to conduct a proper investigation and instead verified the inaccurate information without providing any valid evidence. This violation of my FCRA rights has resulted in ongoing damage to my creditworthiness and has hindered my ability to secure favorable lending terms. 

I kindly request that the CFPB instruct this agency to conduct a thorough and reasonable investigation into the disputed information and provide me with a written response within the stipulated time frame. Additionally, I request that the inaccurate information be promptly removed from my credit report due to my rights being violated and sending multiple disputes in the past with no resolution.
