Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MO
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I have tried several times to work with XXXX ( along with TransunionXXXX ) to remove inaccuracies within my credit report, and they have continuously refused to even investigate my claims. Each time, I recieve a bogus, auto-generated response - even though I am sending PROOF that the claim is valid. Please see their email response below : " We received a recent request regarding your credit information that does not appear to have been sent directly by you or to be authorized by you. As a precautionary measure, we have not taken any action on your alleged request. According to the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, " '' if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a national consumer credit reporting company is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the company directly of such dispute, the company shall reinvestigate free of charge. '' '' Therefore, you can dispute any inaccurate information directly with XXXX for free '' There is NO law that states a consumer can not use a third party, so using that as their excuse is irrelevant. In fact, the United States Congress has found the whole process so overwhelming that they afford consumers the right to use a third party on their behalf if the consumer so chooses. 
Even so, I have sent these letters myself now on 4 occasions ( XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023 ) .. the companies are ruining people 's lives and are not being held accountable. 

Thank you in advance for looking into these issues.

Complaint:
On ( XX/XX/2022 ) I sent a letter regarding inaccurate accounts, bankruptcies and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. feel like i'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

I filed the dispute with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  and the dispute was resolved ( and the charge refunded ) on XX/XX/XXXX. 
Sometime around XXXX of XXXX  ( can't find exact dates ) I started to received collections letters from XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding unpaid debt to XXXX. i told disputed the claim with them, and it was dropped. Then in the summer of XXXX, Amsher purchased this bogus debt and tried to collect. I disputed it with them as well, and they took it to the credit bureaus. I've already started disputes with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. They recommended reaching out to your organization to stop XXXX  from doing this further. Due to their fraudulent charges, my credit score has gone from over XXXX a year ago to just a XXXX. This is pretty nefarious.

Complaint:
This account is not mine. I have called them numerous times to demand validation of the said account and get it closed because I do not want to mess up my credit, but they give me the runaround every time and have never received any validation. I have disputed this but had no resolutions. I was defrauded and scammed. The account was not to be opened and not to be reported. I have requested numerous times for the account to be closed. They specifically failed to validate a debt as I requested, which is a Fair Credit Billing Act violation. I am seeking a reasonable resolution to this situation. Their lack of response for mutual negotiation or the validation of this account, has not been completed. This account is to be updated as disputed or to be deleted from the credit reporting agencies due to the damage to my character during this account dispute. The company has willfully neglected my requests and have caused continual damage to my finances. They violated the Fair Credit Billing Act, and Fair Credit Reporting Act for the purpose of causing harm. The XXXX  and XXXXl health is under attack by the XXXX of this companies ' actions.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I have an account with XXXX. 

I fell behind on this account. The company called me at work and at home. They harrassed me. I asked them finally to stop calling. 

I resumed paying this account in XXXX. I have made payments in XXXX and XXXX. 

In XXXX, I called the company. I spoke to a representative in the credit department at the company. I apologized for my loan being late. I told her that I was making regular payments. I asked the person if my credit report would be updated.. The person thanked me, said that she understood, and informed me that my report would be updated by the company to reflect the payments coming in. 

Instead, the company charged my loan off as a bad debt. I made another payment in XXXX and noticed no update to my report, until a review by me indentified the charge off. 

The company 's credit department refused to work with me. The explained that changing the report would be " dishonest '' even though I called them and started making payment again before the charge off. 

This is very bad business practice. I am asking for the company to change my report back to show that this account was behind, and that I am now making payments. The " charge-off '' should be removed from my credit report. As it stands, the only way I can rectify this matter now is to pay the loan in full which will cause me significant hardship. 

What is troubling is that I received two different responses. I was never told by the company when I phoned in XXXX that my debt would be charged off. I was thanked for resuming payments and for wanting to work this loan out. Now, when I call again, I am told something completely different. I accept responsibility for this. I made an attempt to resolve. That attempt was received. The company arbitrarily changed its stance and has taken a position now that has done me harm. 

I continue to make monthly payments to XXXX. My next payment is on XX/XX/XXXX.

State: MD
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Charged too much interest

Complaint:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau : I would like to submit a dispute against Citi Simplicity Card in the amount of {$1000.00}. Citi automatically issued special rate document on XX/XX/XXXX Annual Percentage Rate ( APR ). The document stated the APR was lowered to 0.00 % for purchases made through XX/XX/XXXX. The credit limit on the credit card was {$2000.00}. 

There was no revolving balance on this credit card as of XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX Citi charged a {$1000.00} fee with the entry Offer 04 Promotional APR Ended XX/XX/XXXX. I phoned Citi and they stated I made transactions against the credit card and this was a valid charge. 

I reviewed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ( FDIC ) 6500 Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 1026.54 Limitations on the imposition of finance charges, it states finance charges can only be imposed on unpaid balances as of the grace period. All of these transactions were paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX and there were no monthly charges during the timeframe revolved on this credit card. 

I am assuming the Citi fee in the amount of {$1000.00} applied to transaction charges placed on the credit card from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Citi stated : All purchases prior to XX/XX/XXXX were placed in the promotional interest rate, when this promotion ended, these purchases were transferred to the standard purchase segment. 

FDIC 6500 regulation states finance charges can only be imposed on unpaid balances as of the grace period. Can Citi go back and charge interest on purchases that did not revolve over the due date of the monthly statement?
