Complaint:
A closed account on my TransUnion credit file, XXXX XXXX, began reporting multiple incorrect late payments. After speaking to XXXX XXXX XXXX, they informed me that they had NOT reported any late payments since my account closed on XX/XX/2021. They then sent me a " payment delinquency statement '' that shows the pay dates of every payment. 

I immediately called TransUnion to dispute and was told to upload the document via the online dispute center. I could not do so, and called TransUnion for assistance in uploading my documents. Every-time I got on the phone with a technical rep, the line disconnected. I called multiple times in 2 days and the same thing kept happening. 

I want my credit report corrected and updated by REMOVING these late payments. Attached is the statement that was sent to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX with an updated payment status.

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the fraudulent items reported on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, specifically U.S.C. 1666b, I am challenging the accuracy of this information. The information appears as a result of identity theft. I have been a constant repeat victim of identity theft dating back to before 2018. It is documented, I have police reports and FTC reports along with other supporting documentation. This information was submitted and ignored and the items in question, which are surely not mine, still remain on my credit report. I am currently in the process of attempting to get a house and this is a huge problem/obstacle that needs a solution as soon as possible. I have sent multiple letters explaining this information and have not been able to get any assistance for months. This matter has been negatively affecting me for more than 6 months. My last letter was mailed earlier this month. 

I am requesting that XXXX, XXXX, Equifax, and any other relevant credit reporting agency re-investigate this matter and remove/block the inaccurate accounts along with the corresponding information from my credit reports. As stated in U.S.C. 1666b, I am entitled to have any incorrect or incomplete information corrected or deleted from my credit report as an victim of identity theft.
