I entered a signed contract with a Loan Company after a loan matured and a balance remained. I have paid the amount before the due date for 3 months as agreed. However, the company reported to the Credit Bureau that I missed all three payments and am behind in payments, which is inaccurate. The contract does not state anything about being late as long as payments are made as required. Do I have any recourse against this company, especially given their history of similar behavior?

Sent a legal response letter to a party and kept the word version of the letter. Authenticity is questioned regarding the sent document, and now the party demands to see the original letter. Isn't our sworn affidavit that the word version is an exact copy of the letter sent, and when it was sent via USPS enough to qualify as admissible evidence, with no evidence to the contrary and the affiant being the only competent fact witness with first-hand knowledge?

I sent a relative $3700 for a new furnace three years ago. I'm not sure if the money was used for that. I received $100 and $500 cashiers checks two months later in the same envelope. I have tried to get payments since with no luck. At one point they changed their number and I found the new one through a relative. I'm in contact with the debtor at this point and they claim they sent $2000 a month ago but I didn't receive it and they never called to check that I received it or let me know they were sending it. I have no written agreement to prove I loaned the money. I do have a record of the cashier's check for $3700 and the payments of $100/$500 plus a conversation with her husband stating it was not his problem. Do I have a strong case for payment in small claims court?
