Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: Hello I had an Auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corp. I paid the loan off in full as of XX/XX/XXXX. The account is not only still showing open but there has been no updates since XX/XX/XXXX on the payments made up until I paid the account off. XXXX payments made on time are not reflected on my XXXX XXXX Credit Report. That keeps your score low. Recently I have used your services because they were marking me late on payments that they should not have and 2x we had to deal with that. I'm starting to feel like this company keeps intentionally doing things to try and keep my credit score low. Also not sure if they did the same thing on XXXX
