A charge that appears on a periodic statement associated with an extension of credit (e.g., credit card) that

  • was not authorized by the cardholder or the cardholders' designee,
    is not properly identified

A billing error can also be caused by a creditor's failure to credit a payment or other credit to an account as well as accounting and clerical errors.
