Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA
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:
Beginning XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, and subsequently on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I mailed notarized and certified handwritten letters to the 3 Credit Bureaus. Requesting verifiable proof of the following accounts on my credit reports. Acct # XXXX, reported by XXXX XXXX, unverified late payment. Another Acct # XXXX, reported by XXXX XXXX, unverified late payment, and Acct # XXXX, reported by XXXX, unverified late payment. For 3 months now I have been disputing these items. However, they have failed to provide me with ANY physical documentation or verifiable proof that I requested under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Nor the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).  Otherwise, anyone could electronically respond with a fraudulent account resulting in an inaccurate credit reporting. 

XXXX and Transunion continues to violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act, failing to provide the verifiable proof I am requesting. Instead, they ask that I submit another dispute only to stall and delay for another 30 days to only reply that the inaccurate information was verified. XXXX however, will not even respond. I called XXXX and they informed me that they were responding through email with the results of their investigation. The problem with this is that I 've never given them an email or corresponded with them through email. So who knows where they are sending my personal information. Even after bringing this to their attention and asking that they only contact me through mail, they continue to communicate through emails that I am not even aware of. I 'm requesting XXXX XXXX and TransUnion to promptly remove the inaccurate and derogatory information on my credit report under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) of the FCRA since after almost 90 days, they have been unable to provide me any verifiable proof. 

For example, on my credit report, XXXX shows that I am current on all payments and one month later I am 90 days late? Yet, the credit bureaus have done nothing to help resolve these issues. Instead, they have been using third party electronic systems to send an automatic response that things like this are verified. 

Due to their neglect and unwillingness to resolve this matter, I have suffered financially by not being able to obtain credit, and has caused strain on my relationship with financial institutions and mental anguish. I am requesting a settlement of {$1000.00} for each of the accounts that each Bureau has reported deliberately and incorrectly and that they immediately removing and correcting all items within my credit report that they have not veried through physical verification and method of verification in accordance to the FCRA.
