Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated.

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.

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!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the student loan reported under my name due to material changes in the federal student loan administration following the executive order issued by President Trump to abolish the U.S department of Education. This unprecedented action has created substantial uncertainty regarding the legitimacy, ownership, and enforceability of student loan debts that were previously under the purview of the Department of Education. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX  Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. { 1681, you are legally required to report only accurate and verifiable information. Given the federal dissolution of the agency responsible for these loans, the chain of custody, legal authority, and servicing legitimacy of these accounts are in question. There is no verified entity authorized to validate, collect or report this debts.

Legal Basis for immediate deletion 1. Lack of credible Verification- with the dissolution of the Department of Education , there is no legally valid entity that can verify the accuracy, ownershi
p, or collection rights of these loans.

2. Material change In Federal Oversight- the entity responsible for these loans no longer exists, rendering past reporting structures invalid.

3. Potential violations of the FCRA- Reporting unverifiable debts is a direct violation of 15 U.S.C { 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S.C. { 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ).

I am demanding the immediate deletion of these accounts from my credit report. If these accounts are not removed, I will escalate this matter with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). The Federal Trade ( FTC ), and initiate legal proceedings as necessary to enforce my rights under federal law. 
Please provide me with a written response confirming the removal of these accounts within 30 days as required by law. Failure to comply will result in further action.

I am writing to address a matter of non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 609 by the credit bureaus. I submitted a complaint to the credit bureaus regarding inaccuracies in my credit report, as per FCRA guidelines. According to the FCRA, the credit bureaus are legally obligated to respond within 30 days of submission. However, it has now been more than 30 days since my complaint was filed, and I have not received any response from the credit bureaus. As per FCRA rules, this failure to respond within the stipulated timeframe warrants the removal of the disputed negative items from my credit report. I kindly request that the credit bureaus address this issue promptly and take the necessary steps to rectify my credit report in accordance with FCRAregulations. Attached you will also find my ID as proofofmyidentity and my Proof of Address.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint because Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian ( or its reporting partners ) is displaying false credit information on my credit report. Specifically, they are listing a trust account or trust-related financial asset as if it is a personal financial asset or liability of mine. 

I am only the beneficiary of the trust. I am not the trustee, I have no legal control, and I do not own the assets. Therefore, it is misleading and inaccurate for this account to be reflected as part of my personal credit report. 

This misreporting is harmful. It has caused me to be denied financial assistance, and it affects my credit score unfairly. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I have the right to a credit report that is accurate and free from misleading or unverifiable information.

I have already contacted the credit reporting agencies directly to dispute this. However, the issue has not yet been corrected. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure that the credit reporting agencies and XXXX XXXX are accurately reporting my information and not violating my consumer rights. 

Thank you for your time and assistance. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: Prosper Marketplace, Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Prosper Marketplace , Inc., regarding their false and damaging credit reporting, negligent communication, and improper classification of my account as being in default.

I entered a settlement agreement with Prosper and have made every agreed-upon payment on time with only one exception a single missed payment in XX/XX/year> that occurred due to Prospers own previous erroneous reporting and a lack of communication. 

Timeline of Events : XX/XX/year> : All three credit bureaus reported Prosper flagged my loan as 60 Days Past Due. 

I immediately filed a dispute with TransUnion, which was resolved in my favor. 

I contacted Prosper. On XX/XX/XXXX, they emailed : Please give 3060 days for the credit bureaus to update and reflect this change Logging into my Prosper account that day, I saw : Loan # XXXX LATE, 106 days past due. 

This reinforced my belief that the dispute was unresolved, and I did not make a payment while waiting. 

Meanwhile, due to a technical issue with my calendar ( set to repeat payments on the XXXX of each month ) and XXXX only having 28 days, I did not receive a reminder to pay Prosper that month. 

Despite resuming payment in XXXX and making every other payment on time, XXXX has now : Marked the account in default; Reported it as derogatory to credit agencies ; Damaged my XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX that I can no longer proceed with a home refinance pre-approval the purpose of which was to pay off this very loan. 

Additionally, no notice of the missed payment was ever sent by XXXX, and their website displays no entry for XXXX at all, whereas all other months show either XXXX or Failed. 

This sequence of events is a direct result of XXXX XXXX XXXX credit reporting ; Delayed and unclear responses ; Lack of notice regarding the missed payment ; Inaccurate and incomplete online account information. 

I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and assist in : Reversing the default designation ; Removing the derogatory report ; XXXX XXXX to restore the settlement agreement terms ; Preventing further harm to my creditworthiness.
