Comenity deleting late payments

There was a thread on the topic from years ago, but I'll make a new one for some recent data points.

 

I tried the secure message board and received this reply today:

 

I am with Comenity Capital Bank, which handles your credit card account. I'm here to help with your account needs. Thank you for contacting us. We reported your account to the National Credit Bureaus because your payments fell past due. Please be informed that we have already sent a letter to your mailing address regarding your concern on 06/15/2022. Please refer the letter for more information. Thank you for taking the time to reach out, and have a great day.

 

Has anyone else got success from twitter, fb, or other means for getting late payments removed?

I emailed everyone under the sun with no luck.  Finally had success with BBB (Better Business Bureau) Complaint.

 

Good Luck!  Comenity is ruthless!!

I would have not reported to the BBB. You are asking for a goodwill. They did nothing wrong. 

Thank you for the wealth of knowledge I have learned from these forums. I am logging off as of November 9, 2022. I wish everyone great success.

Re: Comenity deleting late payments

Technically it was a legitimate compaint.  I have excellent payment history.  I paid off account without realizing that the annual fee had posted in the previous statement, so i had $2.00 in residual interest that went delinquent.

Re: Comenity deleting late payments

Good news fellow MyFico-ers! I reached out to comenity a couple weeks ago because to my HORROR I got a 30 day late payment for my Children's Place card. I was under the impression that it was on autopay but it was NOT! I took a chance and called their 1800 number and spoke to a representative that transfered me to a manager who was able to update their records to show that month as CURRENT.

 

A few days later I got the corresponding letter for this change for my records that states that 4 credit bureaus will be updated: Equifax, Transunion, Experian and Innovis Data removing the 30 day late payment.

 

Just a background on my particular case: I have never had a late payment since I opened my first account with them about 6+ years ago and I have more than 5 accounts with them. The representative mentioned that there cannot be another late payment for the next year and a half or they will not be able to help me. So it seems like they are credit friendly. Good luck to all!
