Consumer Narrative

Re : Dispute of Late Payment Inquiries on Credit Report for Account : COMENITYBANK/VICTORIA, XXXX Dear Comenity Bank Representative, I am reaching out to address a matter of significant concern regarding inaccuracies on my credit report, specifically relating to late payment inquiries associated with my account : COMENITYBANK/VICTORIA, XXXX. These inaccuracies do not accurately reflect my credit history and have unjustly impacted my credit score. I am compelled to request their immediate rectification in accordance with federal regulations. Upon reviewing my credit report, I identified late payment inquiries for this account that are erroneously reported. These inaccuracies stem from a billing error because my payments were never late. Consequently, I urge you to expeditiously remove these inaccuracies from my credit report to rectify the harm inflicted on my financial reputation. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), codified at 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., empowers consumers to dispute any inaccuracies on their credit reports. Under the FCRA, both credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) and furnishers of information, such as your entity, are mandated to ensure the accuracy and completeness of all reported information ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Moreover, the FCRA obligates CRAs and information furnishers to conduct a thorough investigation of disputes and to delete or correct any inaccuracies within a reasonable timeframe, not exceeding 30 days ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ). Non-compliance with these provisions may result in liability for damages, including attorney 's fees ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ). Additionally, the FCRA prohibits the reporting of outdated information. Specifically, it mandates the removal of any adverse information, including late payments, that predates the seven-year threshold, measured from the date of the initial delinquency ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) ). In light of the above, I formally request the immediate removal of the disputed late payment inquiries for the above-referenced account from my credit report. I also expect written confirmation of this removal within 10 days of your receipt of this letter. Failure to address this dispute promptly will compel me to take further action, including but not limited to, monitoring my credit report closely and seeking legal remedies as afforded by the FCRA. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect your cooperation in resolving this dispute in a manner that upholds the integrity of my credit report and complies with the FCRA. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX Statutes Cited : 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ( Duty of furnishers of information to ensure accuracy and completeness ) 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ) 15 U.S.C. 1681n ( Civil liability for willful noncompliance ) 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) ( Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports )
