Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. 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. 


XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION 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

State: MA

Complaint narrative:
Dear FCOSir/Madam ; There are 2 alleged accounts under my report of over {$8800.00} that i'm not aware of. I am disputing the alleged debt reported by your company. This account is fraudulent, as I have no prior relationship or contract with either the original creditor or your company. 
The reporting of this account violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). To verify the legitimacy of this claim and your authority to collect, please provide : XXXX. Proof of Authorization under 15 U.S.C. 1692e and 1692f. 
XXXX. Legal Basis for attempting to collect this debt, including applicable statutes. 
XXXX. Proof of Authorization to Operate in my state. 
XXXX. Evidence of Alleged Debt, including any contract or agreement bearing my signature. 
XXXX. Full Account History, detailing all charges, fees, and payments. 
Your lack of documentation would constitute a violation of FDCPA 1692d, 1692e, 1692g ( b ), and 1692f. Therefore, I demand the immediate removal of this account from my credit records.

Per the doctrine of estoppel by silence ( Engelhart v. Gravens, Mo. 281 S.W. 715, 719 ), as I have not acknowledged any debt, I presume none exists. Failure to provide evidence within 30 days will confirm this accounts invalidity. I expect a written response confirming its removal from my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The late payment in question is reported by EQUIFAX for the period of XX/XX/year>. I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments that are reported on my credit file maintained by EQUIFAX. I believe these late payments are erroneous and do not accurately reflect my payment history. 

Nature of the Complaint : 1. 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.

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

3. Potential Violation of Fair Debt Collections 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.

4. 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.

Furthermore, under the FCRA, articles 616 and 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o ) outline the civil liability for willful and negligent noncompliance, respectively. These provisions provide for damages, including actual damages, attorneys fees, and possible punitive damages, for failure to comply with the Act 's requirements.
