Late Payment Dispute Letter – Creditor Rebuttal Under 15 U.S.C. § 1666b and § 1637(b)
This legally precise letter is written for direct submission to the original creditor—challenging their right to report a late payment by invoking federal billing law under the Truth in Lending Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Under 15 U.S.C. § 1666b, no creditor can legally mark a payment as late unless they can prove that all required billing disclosures under 15 U.S.C. § 1637(b) were mailed or delivered at least 21 days before the due date.
This rebuttal letter demands that proof—or else the reporting must be removed.
