Company: HANCOCK WHITNEY BANK
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
This company has outdated systems that misinform the consumer of what their account balances actually are as well as kick payments back with no reason why. Ive gone into the bank on serval occasions to be told someone would contact me and no one never will. Ive looked online and this is an ongoing problem with this institution.This banks makes it next to impossible to service accounts within their bank. I have all these improprieties documented. 
XXXX. When you login to pay your bill the companys system states no payment is due making you think its already been paid in hopes of collecting late fees. 
2.You schedule auto pay and get a confirmation page stating its confirmed the company doesnt take the auto pay out. Ive made 3 payments in one month because of this companies lack of up to date abilities.

3. This may not be illegal but it is certainly not good customer service. When you setup autopay You are only able to pay the minimum payment or the entire balance payoff. This is a reckless banking institution and because of their callous actions my credit has been ruined for a {$10.00} payment they said was already paid. And failed to correct the problem after they were informed of it.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and 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 reported in 60 days to be removed.

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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports 8
