Complaint:
15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX, TransUnion, XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been validated, lets be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. XXXX, TransUnion, XXXX and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer report are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211. Application For Award Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

Complaint:
I applied for a line of credit with Greensky Financing while my house was under construction through one of their vendors, a heating and cooling company named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was told that I was approved for a line of credit from the office manager with Triple A, but no documentation was given. Before the work was completed XXXX XXXX wanted payment for services, and wanted to use the line of credit with Greensky. I told XXXX XXXX that I wasn't planning on using the line of credit to pay for their services, and had not received a final bill because the work was not complete. About a month and a half later I received an invoice in the mail from Greensky for {$14000.00}. I immediately contacted Greensky about the invoice, and was told that I had authorized a transaction for {$14000.00}. After several phone calls with a rep from Greensky I finally received a copy of my " signed '' authorization letter. This was the first time I had seen this document. I had not signed it, and it was forged. It was forged so badly that my name was misspelled. After telling Greensky this document had been forged I was told that XXXX XXXX was no longer a vendor with Greensky, but I was still liable for the {$14000.00} because I had voice authorized the transaction. I had never agreed to this, and the only thing that I had said was that I was aware that I had been approved.

I just became aware of the multiple cases of fraud against Greensky Financing that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau brought against them.

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
The problem is with Equifax. The other two credit Bureaus are ok. Equifax shows NO current credit activity for over 2 years. Most accounts are over 30 years old. My score does not change since there is nothing active. I have contacted them and talked with them on three recorded calls and 3 registered letters including a 60 page summary with copies of reports. Six weeks ago, my attorney sent them a letter. Still NO response. They say there is nothing wrong with my report but it is obvious from a glance that the computer portal is not operational either by FRAUD or Neglect. 

I have attached a copy of the letter sent by my attorney with reference. 

They provide an essential service to the consumer. This kind of neglect should not be tolerated. PLEASE help, I have no other means to get them to respond and fix the problem.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: MA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
TD Card Services has recently changed their online payment process for cardholders so that when you go to pay, the options that show are " minimum payment '' ( which is what they are sneakily trying to get more people to only pay ), " current balance '' ( also sneakily trying to get people to select this so they are paid more than actually due at that time and can invest extra and make more money on consumers ' $ ) or " other amount '' - where you then have to type in the amount. Conspicuously missing now is the option that was always there and is always on every credit card, which is the " statement balance ''. 

This is VERY deceptive and misleading. It is also ANNOYING because now in order to pay the amount that is actually DUE you have to go find what that amount is by viewing a statement balance, remembering that amount, and entering it into the " other amount '' option. Many people will simply pay the full or minimum, neither of which are the best option for the consumer. This was clearly an intentional choice- i spoke to a representative who explained that was one of the updates they made recently. This is deceptive practice and should not be permitted. They should be REQUIRED to give payment option that shows your statement balance. Please let me know if CFPB can do anything about this.
