Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Capital One, I am writing to express my disagreement with the inaccurate information provided in your recent letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, regarding my account with Capital One. It has come to my attention that the information being reported on my credit reports is still not accurate, specifically regarding the dates and payments associated with the account. 



Firstly, I would like to reiterate that I personally closed this account in XXXX of XXXX and made payments due to financial reasons. However, I am currently unable to access my Capital One account and retrieve any of my old records. Despite this, I have noticed that Capital One has been reporting late payments on my credit reports when this account was closed. When I contacted Capital One in XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that there was a balance of {$250.00} I believe that this balance is less than {$400.00}, taking into consideration any late fees or interest that may have been added. I also send verification forms to be filled out by your company on XX/XX/XXXX, and I never received them back for verified of the correct debt. 



Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that the last payment recorded on your file is incorrect. the last payment was made in XX/XX/XXXX. I kindly request that you update this information accordingly you still were falsely updating an account that was closed by me not by your company. 



Additionally, I would like to draw your attention to the statute of limitations on debt in the state of Pennsylvania by law as per my understanding, the statute of limitations for unsecured loans, oral contracts, open-end accounts, revolving credit, promissory notes, and written contracts such as credit cards, medical bills, personal loans, etc., is four years. The last usually runs from the last payment made on the account, which was in XX/XX/XXXX, not XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore, if this account is indeed past the seven-year mark, as it is now XXXX, Not up 7 up to 10 years I kindly request that this old debt be deleted from all three credit bureaus as well Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could provide me with more comprehensive proof of payment history and records attached to the account, rather than just a letterhead with dates, just because you provide a letter head doesn't mean your company information is correct or valid. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will promptly address these concerns and rectify the inaccuracies on my account. I look forward to receiving a response from you soon. 



Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
