Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally notify you of a serious issue regarding my credit report and to seek your assistance. I have been a victim of identity theft, and as a result, fraudulent accounts have been opened in my name with JPMCB ( Chase ). Despite providing XXXX with documentation from Chase confirming that these accounts are not mine, XXXX has refused to remove the fraudulent accounts from my credit report. 

The accounts in question are as follows : JPMCB ( Chase ) Account Number : [ insert account number, if known ] Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information on their credit report. XXXXXXXX XXXX and XXXX refusal to remove these fraudulent accounts, despite the evidence provided, constitutes a violation of this requirement. 

XXXX 's and XXXX actions have caused significant harm to my credit standing and have prevented me from accessing credit and financial services. Moreover, their failure to comply with XXXX XXXX compliance guidelines, which are their own industry standards for accurate credit reporting, further exacerbates the issue. 

Given that Chase has already confirmed that these accounts are not mine, I am requesting the following actions from Chase : Reaffirm the invalidity of these accounts and communicate directly with XXXX AND XXXX to ensure the immediate removal of the fraudulent JPMCB ( Chase ) accounts from my credit report. 
Provide assurance that these accounts will not reappear on my credit file in the future. 
Assist in ensuring that all negative information related to these accounts is removed from my credit reports. 
As a victim of identity theft and a concerned consumer, I am deeply troubled by XXXX 's and XXXX  failure to comply with their legal obligations and protect my financial information. I urge Chase to take swift and decisive action to rectify this situation. 

I have attached copies of the relevant documentation from Chase, including any correspondence that confirms the fraudulent nature of the accounts. Please confirm receipt of this letter and provide me with updates on the actions taken to resolve this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue. I trust that Chase will act promptly to assist me in resolving this matter.

I HAVE A 7 YEAR FRAUD ALERT AND CREDIT FREEZE ON ALL XXXX CREDIT REPORTS. THE INACCURATE NAME AND MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS BELONGING TO THAT NAME CONTINUE TO POPULATE ON MY CREDIT REPORTS. I have never been associated with that name. My credit file has been merged due to identity theft dating back to XXXX. My credit file has been in the Special Handling Department of XXXX  as well as Transunion and XXXX due to accounts being reported to my credit report with account owners that have a similar name. The account is reporting a late payment also that has prevented me from moving and I am facing homelessness. I'VE NEVER HAD A XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ACCOUNT. XXXXXXXX XXXX customer service and supervisors have not aided in resolving this issue. 

I filed a dispute with all 3 credit bureaus in XXXX. Transunion is the only credit bureau still reporting the fraudulent names, addresses and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  account. 

I mailed transunion : Dispute, Drivers license, Social security card, Birth certificate, Police report, FTC report, and Utility bills. Transunion sent a follow up letter requesting the same exact information I had already sent via priority mail. I resent the same documentation AGAIN in XXXX certified mail. The tracking number shows it was delivered. Transunion still decisions my case as the debt being valid even after claiming not receiving my documents that I sent TWICE and receiving correspondence from them stating they cant block and delete the fraud unless I send required documents, which I have done. 

I submitted ANOTHER dispute to Transunion in XXXX via XXXX and I uploaded all required documents. I have yet to get a response on the dispute. Please review it and remove the fraudulent information from my report as this is affecting my life and I can not find a place to live due to this.

As a consumer, I am made aware that 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. With this being said, please show proof where my periodic statement was sent regarding one late payments. If a periodic statement can not be sent showing where these late payments occurred, please do your due diligence to update these one late payments. They are only affecting my financial reputation but also causing financial harm to myself.
