Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of information contained in my consumer report issued by your agency. I recently obtained a copy of my consumer report and discovered that non-public information has been disclosed about me to a non-affiliated third party without my written consent. This practice is in direct violation of 15 USC 6802, which outlines obligations regarding the disclosure of personal information. 

Upon reviewing my consumer report, I noted that there are accounts, specifically XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Account Numbers XXXX and account number XXXX, Also Credit Inquiries XXXX XXXX  Inquiry XX/XX/2023 listed without my written consent. As per 15 USC 1681b - Permissible Purpose, I have not provided authorization for the reporting of this personal information. This lack of consent not only violates my privacy rights but also raises concerns about identity theft, as outlined in 18 USC 1028a. 

I want to bring to your attention that I have already filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission, and my reference number is XXXX. I expect this matter to be treated with the utmost urgency and seriousness. 

Furthermore, I was not provided with the option to opt out of the items being reported, as is my right under the law. I request that you provide proof of offering me the opportunity to opt out, as required by law. 

In accordance with 15 USC 1681c-2, I demand that the following accounts, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Numbers XXXX ( Account Type- Auto Loan ) and XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Account Numbers XXXX  ( Account Type -Credit Card ) and Credit Inquiries XXXX XXXX Inquiry Date XX/XX/2023, be removed from my consumer report immediately. I emphasize that my dispute is not with the creditor but with your reporting agency for not obtaining proper written consent and failing to provide an opt-out option. 

I expect these accounts to be removed within XXXX business days of receiving this letter, in compliance with the timeframes specified under 15 USC 1681c-2. Additionally, I request that your agency remove these accounts without invoking the method of verification, as the reporting was done without proper consent.

Failure to comply with this request may result in further legal action to protect my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I am confident that your agency will handle this matter promptly and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
