Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Request for Description of Investigation Process - Disputed Accounts on my Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to request a detailed description of the investigation process followed by your agency regarding the disputed accounts on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ), credit reporting agencies are obligated to provide a description of the investigation within 15 days of receiving a consumer 's dispute. 
I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed an account that was not reporting accurately. Specifically, there are late payments reported on the following account : Account Number : XXXX High Balance : TransUnion : {$150.00} ; XXXX : {$150.00} ; XXXX XXXX {$300.00} Last Verified : TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XXXX ; XXXX : N/A XXXX of Last Activity : TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX Date Reported XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX Date Opened XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed XXXX {$0.00} ( All Bureaus ) Account Rating : Open Account Description : Individual Credit Union Credit Card XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Payment History : Shows XXXX late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX ) and XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ( TransUnion and XXXX ). 
Upon careful review, I have identified several errors and discrepancies in the reporting of this account, including : XXXX XXXX : TransUnion and XXXX report {$150.00}, while XXXX reports {$300.00}. 
Last Verified Date : TransUnion reports XX/XX/XXXX, but XXXX and XXXX have no data for this field. 
Date of Last Activity : TransUnion reports XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX : All bureaus report {$0.00}, yet there are inconsistencies in other account details. 
Disputed Status : TransUnion and XXXX indicate " Account not disputed, '' while XXXX lists it as " Account disputed. '' XXXX XXXX : TransUnion and XXXX report {$150.00}, but XXXX reports {$300.00}. 
To the best of my knowledge and records, I have consistently paid this account on time, in accordance with the agreed-upon terms. I had previously disputed this account, and despite my evidence and requests, the information has not been corrected. This marks the second dispute for this account, yet nothing has changed since the first one.

It is my understanding that per 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), my consumer report should not contain information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer ( myself ) and the person making the report. The reported late payments neg
atively impact my creditworthiness and do not accurately reflect my payment history.

Furthermore, I am requesting that you provide, in writing, the reasonable procedures [ according to 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ] that you have adopted to ensure that each periodic statement is mailed to me ( the consumer ) not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Include also all the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of Title 15.

Reference to PAANL ( Paid As Agreed Never Late ) : The terms of our agreement have always been adhered to, and the account in question should reflect a status of " Paid As Agreed Never Late '' based on the timely payments made. It is imperative that my credit report accurately represents my financial responsibility and commitment to meeting payment obligations. 
I hereby request that you provide documented proof supporting the claim of late payments on this account. This proof should include specific details such as dates, amounts, and any relevant communication indicating that the payments were indeed late. In the absence of valid proof, I expect the credit reporting to be rectified promptly.

If, after a thorough investigation, you are unable to provide verifiable proof of late payments, I demand that the account be promptly updated to reflect its accurate status as " Paid As Agreed Never Late. '' Per the FCRA, I request that you conduct a timely investigation and provide a written response within 30 days from the receipt of this dispute letter. Failure to adhere to this timeline will be considered a violation of the FCRA. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution that aligns with the legal obligations outlined by the FCRA. Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining the accuracy and fairness of my credit report. 
Thank you for your understanding and prompt action. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
