The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : [ XXXX ] Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX  ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency. 
FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information. 
TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period.

Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.
