Complaint narrative:
My account with the company and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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 in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed 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. 

This company never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 

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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed several inaccuracies regarding late payment reporting for my account APPLE CARD/GS BANK USA XXXX Specifically XXXX there are late payments reported for the following months : - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I believe these late payments are inaccurately reported. According to my records, all payments were made on time. 

Could you please provide proof of these late payments, specifically canceled checks showing the date each payment was processed? I must emphasize that records of transactions alone are not sufficient proof of late payment ; what is required is evidence demonstrating that the payment was indeed processed late. 

Furthermore, to maintain a positive relationship, I am open to resolving this matter through a goodwill adjustment to remove the late payment reporting. This adjustment would greatly assist in correcting my credit report and maintaining my financial health. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), all information reported to credit bureaus must be accurate and verifiable. If you can not provide the requested proof, please remove these inaccuracies from my credit report. 

Thank you for taking the time to look into this matter. Please let me know when you've received this letter and the actions taken to correct my account. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am requesting immediate action from the CFPB to ensure that TransUnion complies with its legal obligations. Specifically, I am seeking : An immediate investigation into the fraudulent account and its removal from my credit report.
