Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX Payment was late, and was reported to credit agencies. 
- I wrote to XXXX about this. Unfortunately, I was out of the Country. The auto payment was canceled because of a fraud warning from my bank. When I returned I made all payments necessary. This was the only time I was late and when I spoke with customer service they said the notice of being late was returned via mail. As this was the first time their policy stated that If I wrote in to this group the late notice would be dropped. It was not. 
XX/XX/XXXX Collection/charge off - This is possible the MOST frustrating event of all. Another driver struck my vehicle and totaled it. The insurance company paid for nearly all of the remaining balance. The unpaid off amount was suppose to be paid by the GAP insurance I had purchased, however they were dragging their feet. I had placed several calls to XXXX  letting them know where we were in the process and CONTINUED making my monthly payments so that I would not receive a late charge. During one of the calls I made to XXXX I was told that payments would not help the total needed to be paid. I asked for two weeks to either get GAP to make a payment or I would. Despite XXXX saying that I would be fine to wait two weeks they reported this to the credit agency. I made a full payment om XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$2300.00} with a confirmation number of XXXX. Gap insurance has also made a payment since then. I have not been reimbursed for anything and at last check XXXX says I still owe money.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
I applied for a Bank of America Checking Account and was not approved immediately. I had to call them to verify my ID because of a Fraud Alert from the XXXX XXXX XXXX. They ( Bank of America ) checked my credit report BEFORE approving me for the XXXX XXXX. I ordered checks through their online banking portal, and a few days later, I was contacted by Bank of America about fraudulent charges. Turns out, they stemmed from the checks and accessories I ordered FROM THEM. I then tried to get a savings account to connect to my BoFA Checking account on XX/XX/2021. At XXXX, I transferred money from my online accounts into Bank of America XXXX thinking it's best to have one reputable bank ( XXXX! ) By XXXX onXXXX I could no longer access online banking, use my debit card or even contact them as they had already closed. When I spoke to a representative on the phone the next day I was told my account was closed as a " Business Decision '' and I am not entitled to anything more than that. Not only that, they will not release my balance ( over {$1000.00} ) until AFTER XXXX XXXX, and a check would not reach me until 7-15 days after that. I only had this account for about 5 weeks, and they are holding my money XXXX for over 2 months! 
I did nothing with this account aside from use my debit card with XXXX, for purchases and to make deposits. I should have been notified if I broke any rules, I should be able to withdraw ALL of my funds NOW, not in 2 months after they charge me tons of fees and terminate all access to my account. I can not even check my transactions or balance as I enrolled in paperless statements. I can not access online banking, so how can I keep track on my money? This is just unethical and they shouldn't have approved me for an account if they were going to close it 3 weeks later. I see thousands of the same complaints and I don't know what I did wrong, aside from sending money with XXXX to people who may have had a bad history with them. Not fair, because I had NO problems with them. They just closed my account after I put all of my money into it from a few online only accounts. Oh, and I applied for a savings account, how dare I?! 
I want my money back asap. Please help me

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 she filed a number of disputes with the credit agencies, regarding incorrect items on my report. They respond, claiming that the items have been investigated and find that they are in the companys favor. They are unable or unwilling to prove to me what has been submitted as proof of a thorough investigation. 

It has come to the point that I, myself, have had to do several investigations, in order to prove that these items are reporting illegally and incorrectly on my credit report. 

This should not be the case. At all!!!! They should prove that the company is in the right, and show me how they came to this conclusion. 

I have submitted proof of correct contracts, I have submitted medical coverage proof, and yet, the illegal Items are STILL reporting!!!!! Why is the burden of proof now on me, the consumer??

There was not any notification at all. No dunning letter. The credit reporting agency did not send me a notice that this is being reinserted after years of being removed. This is not my debt and I want it removed right away.

Complaint:
I have attempted to disput e an issue with XXXX XXXX. I have sent a letter of validation with cease and desist to them back in XXXX and disputing with each of the credit companies. FIRST AND FOREMOST XXXX DID NOT PROVIDE ME THE INFORMATION THEY ARE REQUIRED TO DO SO BY LAW. The only provided me a print off of a statement and no contract or any other details as they are required to do Pursuant to Haddad v. Alexander, Zelmanski, Danner & Fioritto, PLLC, 13-2026, 2014 WL 3440174 ( 6th Cir. July 16, 2014 ), and 15 USC 1692g ( b ), you are required to cease and desist from collecting upon the debt ( including contacting a debtors credit ) until you properly validate and verify the debt amount. Do you have the right person? Please do not look at my credit or report anything to my credit reports as I dispute I owe this debt amount to you and that dispute should be stated on my credit report. 
Instead what they did was look at my credit report, updated with different information that they have not been clear about, did not put a statement on my credit report as requested and never sent me the contract the original contract for the loan. I have been requesting this for XXXX years. The credit reporting companies also did not follow for a credit reporting. This is my last opportunity that I am giving them before I file a lawsuit. I will force them into arbitration as well all of them if necessary. I want the original contract I want the laws followed.
