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: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I'm just wondering what's happening with accounts I disputed on the XXXX of XXXX. I still have not received any paperwork back. I know it takes 30 days and the credit bureaus are on the other side of the country from where I'm at, but I figured 40 days should be enough. I also read that if I dispute again while my first dispute is active it will just extend the investigation time. Its day 40 so I figured I might as well file this complaint now instead of sending another dispute which will delay my investigations more.

Complaint:
XXXX FORMELY XXXX XXXX The last past payment reported on my consumer report with this account is incorrect. 

Ive notified Transunion of this via : certified mail. 

( Attached ) Circling the inaccuracies. They have ignored my dispute changing nothing. 

( Note : this is my XXXX dispute ) I have attached my credit report, it shows a last payment of XX/XX/XXXX. That is incorrect. 

In fact, the accounts historical trended data shows a last payment made XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ) How could there be two LAST payments? 

This is reflecting an incorrect month and year the account would remove from my report. 

As the FCRA states I ask that this account is complete, timely and accurate if it is reporting to my consumer report. If not, remove it in completely.
