Complaint narrative:
I hope this note finds you well. I'm reaching out because I've noticed something weird with my credit report. For my account : Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX It's showing an inaccurate payment history, nothing is matching at all. There are many discrepancies and inconsistency across the reports and I have no actual verification that this is my actual account. 

Consumer Reporting Agencies are pretty important, right? I mean, you guys need to be on the ball with accuracy. This is why I'm reaching out to you directly - to clear this up. 

I'd be really grateful if you could check into this for me. Could you send me copies of the statements where it shows these late payments? If it turns out there's no proof of my payments being late, then it's only fair that these be updated to show that I've paid on time - because I did. 

I know mistakes can happen, but this mix-up with my payment history on this account isn't accurate. So, could you please help me out here and sort this out ASAP? 

Thanks a bunch for looking into this. I'm looking forward to getting my credit report fixed up right.
