Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2024 Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payments on XXXX Account Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments reported on my credit file by the credit reporting agencies XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. I believe these late payments are erroneous and do not accurately reflect my payment history, as I have consistently made payments on time. 
Nature of the Complaint Inaccurate Reporting : The late payments for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2024 on Equifax and for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2024 on XXXX and XXXX are inaccurate. 
My records clearly show that I was enrolled in autopay, ensuring timely payments. 
Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : The reporting of these late payments violates my rights under 15 USC 1666 ( b ) as they misrepresent my creditworthiness. 
Potential Violation of Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : The false reporting of these late payments may also constitute a violation of the FDCPA, which prohibits misrepresentation of account status. 
Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : These reporting practices are in violation of the TILA, which requires accurate reporting of credit obligations.

Under the FCRA, sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 mandate that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of consumer files. Articles 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o further outline civil liability for willful and negligent noncompliance with these provisions. 
Summary of Account Details and Errors The XXXX account shows consistent discrepancies across all three credit bureaus. 
XXXX : Late payments inaccurately reported for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2024 as 30, 60, and 90 days late. 
XXXX : Late payments inaccurately reported for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2024 as 30, 60, and 90 days late. 
Equifax : Late payments inaccurately reported for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2024 as 30, 60, and 90 days late. 
These errors directly contradict my payment history and enrollment in autopay. 
Requested Resolution I request that the inaccurate late payments be removed from my credit report with XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax. These entries do not reflect my true payment history, as my account was enrolled in autopay. I expect a thorough investigation and the correction of these errors within 30 days of receiving this complaint, as required by law. 
Please confirm in writing the removal of these entries. Failure to resolve this issue may lead to further action to protect my rights under the FCRA, FDCPA, and TILA.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.
