XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX GA XXXX XXXX XXXX Date : XX/XX/2024 To : Credit Bureaus Re : Dispute of Late Payments on Account # [ XXXX XXXX  XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ] Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to dispute the late payment ( s ) reported on my credit file under the account referenced above. After reviewing my credit report, I have reason to believe that the reporting of these late payments is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable.

In accordance with Section 609 and Section 611 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am requesting that you investigate this matter thoroughly. Under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 )
( A ), I am entitled to receive a full disclosure of the information being reported and its sources. Furthermore, as per Section 611 ( a ), if this information can not be verified within the required timeframe, you are obligated to remove or correct it.

Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors must properly disclose information, and I believe there may be discrepancies in the manner these payments were reported.

I expect this matter to be resolved within 30 days, as stipulated by the FCRA.

Company: Bounce AI, Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow up to complaint XXXX Bounce AI in their response to this complaint advised that I still owed money to XXXX for other items purchased on the same day as the defective item. On XX/XX/year> I purchased four items from XXXX totalling {$1000.00}. At the time of purchase, I placed a down payment of {$270.00}, leaving a remaining balance of {$810.00}. This is somewhat reflected in the purchase agreement, but does not appear to be acknowledged fully. 

On XX/XX/year> a dispute over a broken item that lasted about thirty days was resolved with them refunding me {$520.00} for the television as was mentioned in the complaint response. This would leave a balance of {$280.00}.

In addition to the down payment, I made an additional payment on XX/XX/year> of {$67.00}, which would leave a balance of {$220.00}. So, if Bounce AI were to attempt to collect a debt that I owed, the amount that I owed would be incorrect. I requested a list of payments made and an original invoice from them, and they sent the same payment agreement that they provided in the first complaint. 

XXXX then further confused the process by refunding me a total of {$160.00} on XX/XX/year>. So again, even were this debt to be valid, Bounce AI is attempting to collect more than the amount owed. 

I did send XXXX notification that I was refusing to pay any further due to their poor customer service and it was my assumption then as it is now that the refund issued on XX/XX/year> closed the matter and that no further was owed. A year later I received notification that I still owed a balance on the account, and given that there was no other correspondence, I had forgot that I purchased other items. But I did advised that company of the same information I submitted here and in the previous complaint, and no further communication was attempted until the debt was sold to Bounce AI.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments that are reported on my credit file maintained by Experian. I believe these late payments are erroneous and do not accurately reflect my payment history.

Nature of the Complaint : Inaccurate Reporting : The late payments listed on my credit report are inaccurate. I have consistently made my payments on time, as I have been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts.

Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : The inaccurate reporting of these late payments violates my rights under the FCRA ( 15 USC 1666b ), as they misrepresent my creditworthiness.

Potential Violation of Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : The reporting of false late payments may also constitute a violation of the FDCPA, which protects consumers from misrepresentation regarding their accounts.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : I assert that the reporting practices violate the TILA, which mandates accurate reporting of credit information.

Additionally, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files.

I will escalate this matter to the CFPB, citing articles 616 and 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o ), which provide liability for willful and negligent noncompliance, respectively. These statutes allow for damages, including actual damages, attorneys fees, and possible civil penalties for failure to comply with the Act 's requirements.

The account is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, it says I made a purchase of {$120.00}, and it's marked under the education category. During those days, I was looking for courses to add some skills since I'm a XXXX. However, this website doesn't have the characteristics to help me add the skills I want. When calling Wells Fargo, I spoke with a girl who called me asking why my account was against ( calls are supposedly recorded ) ; she said it was very curious because what I was saying made sense. When communicating with another person on the phone, this person tells me that I used my digital card on the website. My question is : how is it possible that I used my digital card on a website that doesn't accept XXXX XXXX? It's very strange, and of course, after arguing ( it made no sense ), I requested a supervisor. He insists on the same thing and says that the bank already investigated. My big frustration is that I don't understand the type of investigation. They checked their systems that indicate I supposedly used my digital XXXX XXXX card, but the website doesn't accept these - no other response, no other apology. They insist that I used my XXXX XXXX or digital card ; for me, that's it, I don't know what other digital card they're referring to because they wouldn't even give me more details. They told me that's the resolution and nothing more. So I can say that Wells Fargo doesn't want to review this information more thoroughly, or perhaps the associated merchant and they have joint business dealings. I don't know what else to think.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately.

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity.

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.
