Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that XXXX closed both of my accounts because they stated I was in default. Neither account has ever been 30 days late. Due to financial issues, I have fallen a bit behind but I always made the payment before 30 days. I have never missed a payment. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I went on XXXX 's website to attempt to make a payment to avoid any 30 day lates. XXXX was reporting that there were no payments due on either account. Please see attached picture. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX  reported my credit card as a charge off. Once again, I have never been 30 days late with XXXX. For the past 3 months, I have been making the payments around 28 days late but NEVER 30 days late. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX charged off the account and reported the inaccurate negative information to XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion. Their actions were improper. On XX/XX/XXXX, the account was only 28 days behind. When I logged in to make an additional payment on XX/XX/XXXX, the account was no longer listed on the website because they had discharged it. Payments are due on the XXXX of each month. There is no record of this account ever being 30 days late nor have they reported it late.
