Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX
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: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I have been disputing the inaccuracies on my credit report XX/XX/2022 and I am still having the same issues. This is hindering my opportunity of homeownership. I'd asked the credit bureaus to " investigate every piece of information '' on my accounts I have listed below. According to the FRCA the term " investigative consumer report '' means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. I have asked respectfully that Id be provided with proof of the disputed item specifically any contact note, court document, or any instrument having my signature. They have failed to do this as expected, according to the law, the items would be deleted within 30 days, but this has been ongoing since XX/XX/2022. The credit bureaus stated my account was verified but how is that possible if they did not do a proper investigation according to the law. This was the response after several dispute letters were sent and ignored. I recently accessed a new credit report and found the same and similar discrepancies which means every piece of information on these accounts are still not 100 % accurate according to the FRCA 15 USC 1681 everything must be 100 % accurate. I have the credit report still showing inaccuracies.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: OH
Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
My XXXX statement period ended XX/XX/2023, the balance was reported to the credit bureaus on XX/XX/2023, per the information on my credit report. This is the same for every month prior. I paid the full statement amount on the card, over {$6000.00}, on XX/XX/2023. I knew this would not be reported to the bureaus until the statement period ended, which was XX/XX/2023. The card was also converted from a Comenity MasterCard to a Bread Financial American Express on XX/XX/2023. Bread Financial says this has had no bearing on the delayed credit reporting. They also stated they sent the reports to the bureaus on XX/XX/2023 as they do every month. This is inaccurate. The credit bureaus have not received this report. My most recent credit reporting seems to be lost between Comenity and Bread in their recent acquisition or conversion. They are required by FCRA to report my account accurately and timely, which they are not. Their response was to wait 45 days and see if it posts. This is unacceptable.

Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Sent card you never applied for

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX my wife and I attended a vacation timeshare presentation by XXXX in exchange for a free XXXX night stay at XXXX of their properties. 

We declined to purchase the timeshare options provided. They indicated they'd need our social security numbers to put us " into the system '' to get our gifts, and also to allow them to show us better deals ( to attempt to get us to change our mind ). I provided by social security number verbally and the employee punched my info into their XXXX. They left to their office and upon returning noted that we had excellent credit. Not having expected my credit to be pulled I inquired if this was a hard pull because I didn't want a credit inquiry on my record. They said no. They presented financing options which we declined. We signed one paper indicating that we declined all their offers and left. 

The next day I got an alert on my credit monitoring that said there was an inquiry. It turns out they did a hard pull without my authorization. 

A few days later I got another alert that a credit card from XXXX XXXX Comenity with a {$5000.00} credit line was opened in my name. I did not authorize any credit to be opened in my name. 

I contacted the company and they indicated there was nothing they could do. I was told that if I dispute the reports with the credit reporting agencies, XXXX will simply decline to respond. This should " resolve '' the issue because they will drop off of our report. They said this is their standard practice at the advice of their lawyer because they receive many such disputes on a regular basis. 

I asked for a copy of the documents with which I supposedly authorized this credit pull and credit account. They said they could not provide such a document. 

I have already disputed the inquiry ( with one agency ) as well as the account ( with all three ). The agency that has the inquiry has responded and indicated that because the pull did occur they can not remove it from my credit. However since this inquiry was made without my authorization it was in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. ( In addition to this complaint I intend to pursue statutory damages under that act. ) The fact that they receive disputes regularly indicates they are knowingly continuing to perpetrate this fraud. Simply declining to respond to credit reporting agency disputes is not a satisfactory resolution.

Complaint:
I have been disputing this account with the credit bureaus and they have not provided any validation for this account. 

I know that all they do when disputing anything is send data over to a company who sends a data file back. THAT IS NOT VERIFYING THAT ITS MY DEBT! I've looked up this company and it has numerous complaints about the same thing, incorrect reporting. I also noticed that CFPB has a lawsuit against XXXX XXXX. On page 9 of the filing it says File No. 201 -CFPB-0022 Sellers Disclaim the Availability of Documentation to Evidence the Debt they Sold to XXXX XXXX. Sellers typically have not provided XXXX with any Consumer-level documentation about most individual Debts, such as account statements, records of payments, and the underlying contracts signed by the Consumers. Instead, if desired, XXXX has had to order these documents from sellers, often at an additional cost to XXXX. So, if this is the case, then XXXX XXXX has no PROOF nor signature of my debt as I asked them to prove via certified mail. Which means that both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX are falsely reporting on my credit file.

Sub-issue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Complaint:
My account was overdrawn on XX/XX/2021 so I went to deposit money to take care of the negative balance after my work day. I made the deposit to my account around XXXX mountain time and then the following day I was hit with a NSF fee. I didn't care too much about it, but after figuring out I made the deposit before the cut off time I was a little perplexed. On XX/XX/2021 I contact BMO Harris around XXXX XXXX to get an explanation of why I was changed a fee, but the rep glossed over my question and asked, " why do you think you need the fee refunded? '' I was a little confused about the question so I asked her to repeat herself and sure enough she asked the same question and doubled down on asking me questions that were not related to my inquiry. I was put on hold, rep came back and negotiated a 50 % refund because of my account history. I told the rep I've never had a ODF or NSF fee before so she decided to pick at my spending habits. 

My issue is, if my cash deposit was before the cut off time I shouldn't have been charged a NSF fee because I funding the account. Furthermore, I shouldn't be patronized by some bank rep about my beliefs on getting a refund, etc.
