The CEO Method is a powerful strategy for removing late payments from your credit report. As the owner of a credit repair business for nearly 20 years, I've helped thousands of clients successfully clean up their reports—and I have a story to share.
If you've been struggling with negative marks dragging down your score, this approach could help you take control of your credit once and for all.
One Late Payment, One Big Problem
Mark had always paid his bills on time. But one simple mistake changed everything.
A single late payment showed up on his credit report, and his credit score dropped by 57 points.
📉 Before the late payment: 725
🚨 After the late payment: 668
Mark was shocked. He had set up autopay, but for some reason, the payment didn’t go through. He called his bank, then his credit card company—but they refused to remove the late mark.
That one mistake put him in a tough spot.
❌ His mortgage pre-approval was at risk.
❌ His credit card interest rate increased.
❌ He lost access to a high-limit card he was planning to use.
Frustrated, Mark tried disputing it with the credit bureaus. But his dispute was denied.
He was out of options—until he found a method that actually worked.

Most people don’t realize that a single late payment can drop a good credit score by 50+ points.
Why? Because payment history makes up 35% of your credit score—the largest factor in FICO scoring.
💡 Here’s the real problem: Even if you catch up and pay the balance, the late payment can stay on your report for up to 7 years.

How to Remove Late Payments Using the CEO Method
Mark had already tried disputing the late payment with the credit bureaus—but that approach rarely works. Why? Because credit bureaus often rely on automated systems that simply verify the information with the creditor instead of conducting a thorough investigation.
Instead, we used a proven three-step process designed to remove late payments legally and effectively.
Here’s how it works:
📌 Step 1: Challenge the Creditor’s Reporting Accuracy
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), creditors must report information with 100% accuracy.
So we forced the credit card company to verify the details of Mark’s late payment.
We requested:
✅ A full payment history statement
✅ Proof of autopay failure & transaction logs
✅ Their official internal late payment policy
📌 Step 2: Escalate the Case to Decision-Makers
When the creditor responded, we found a discrepancy. The billing cycle didn’t match their stated due dates.
We escalated Mark’s case beyond customer service to the department responsible for credit reporting corrections.
📌 Key fact: Many companies have internal policies allowing them to remove a late payment if it's challenged properly.
📌 Step 3: Overturn the Late Payment
Once we presented the documentation error, the creditor agreed to remove the late payment as a courtesy.
🔥 Within 30 days, Mark’s credit score rebounded by 52 points. We’ve used the CEO Method to help thousands of clients successfully remove late payments and improve their
💡 Your Turn: If you've been hit with a late payment that you believe is unfair or incorrect, don’t just accept it. With the right approach, you can challenge and remove it legally.
Here’s the official late payment removal letter:
The Aftermath: Credit Score Restored & Loan Approved
✅ Final credit score: 720 (and climbing!). We didn't just get Mark back to where he was; we set him up for even greater financial opportunities.
✅ Mortgage pre-approval secured. Those extra points made all the difference, allowing Mark to secure his dream home without paying a premium.
✅ Lower credit card interest rate restored. Not only did his score recover, but he also avoided unnecessary interest charges, a direct result of the removed late payment.
🚀 Mark went from feeling stuck and frustrated to being back on track.
He was even ahead of the game—all because he used the right method to challenge his late payment.
The "CEO Method" wasn't just about fixing a mistake; it was about reclaiming his financial future and opening doors he thought were closed.
