Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
" 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 on my XXXX XXXX  XXXX - XXXX, XXXX XXXX - XXXX. 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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have a new vehicle financed with XXXX XXXX. I wanted to re-finance my vehicle and requested pay off quote from XXXX XXXX ; my financial institution for re-finance assured me that my re-finance would be approved. I understand that I did not make payment because I did not want to get pay-off letters again n again. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested Pay off letter and submitted it to XXXX XXXX XXXX for re-finance. Refinancing institution was backed up on the loan processing, so they requested new pay off letter on XXXX XXXX. 
I let XXXX know about my current situation, If they clearly told me that my account would be reported late ; I could have paid all amount on that date but I was not aware, I assumed that re-financing would be done sooner. I also emailed XXXX XXXX before my account was 45 days past due. Nobody stated to me that 45 days late reporting can not be stopped and it would be done automatically. 
I spoke with XXXX XXXX -Customer representative on XXXX XXXX and requested to not send my account for credit reporting as I am refinancing and also at the verge of buying new house. He advised me to pay at least {$500.00} to cover penalties and pay rest of amount until end of XXXX to avoid credit impact. I have recording of that call with me that I requested that my re-financing is taking a while and if it would not be done, then I will pay all amount I owe before end of XXXX. 
I paid {$500.00} and rest of payment for {$1200.00} is done on XXXX XXXX ( as promised ) but I see that even before end of XXXX, XXXX already reported 60 days late for my experian report. 
In my two years of auto loan financing, my all payments were on time and it only happened this time while waiting for re-finance. As my re-financing consumed lot of my time and I am at the brim of closing house for Escrow, I do not want additional inquiry or late payment on my account. so I have decided to continue my auto loan with XXXX XXXX for the time being.
