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

Complaint:
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ). XXXX XXXX account number : XXXX. I demand you remove these entries immediately. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act you are illegally reporting this account. Once the debt is charged off it becomes income to the consumer which is illegal to be reported. 
I will be filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protections Bureau., ( 1. ) ( a ) DUTY OF FURNISHERS OF INFORMATION TO PROVIDE ACCURATE INFORMATION ( 1 ) PROHIBITION ( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

( 2. ) Topic No. 431 Canceled Debt Is It Taxable or Not? 
After a debt is canceled, the creditor may send you a Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt showing the amount of cancellation of debt and the date of cancellation, among other things. If you received a Form 1099-C showing incorrect information, contact the creditor to make corrections. For example, if the creditor is continuing to try to collect the debt after sending you a Form 1099-C, the creditor may not have canceled the debt and, as a result, you may not have income from a canceled debt. You should verify with the creditor your specific situation. Your responsibility to report the taxable amount of canceled debt as income on your tax return for the year when the cancellation occurs doesn't change whether or not you receive a correct Form 1099-C. 

The IRS considers this income and should not be reported

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: MI
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX 2017 I contacted Citizens bank and waited on the phone over 30 minutes to attempt to resolve this issue with them directly. I have gone out of town and there was an auto payment on my account that over drafted my account. The payment was in the amount of {$160.00} and Citizens bank charged me an excessive amount of {$160.00} in fees for this amount. I have never heard of any bank charging this. I have numerous accounts with this company and I now feel very concerned to be leaving my money in this account. When I spoke with a supervisor she refused to do anything but waive {$30.00} of the fees. I asked to speak to someone above her and she told me no one is above her. I asked her if the she owns the company? She said she does not but I am not allowed to speak to anyone else. I demanded to speak to someone else as I did not feel comfortable with her. She told me that I can write a letter about it to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX rhoad island XXXX. I asked her what her full name or badge ID was in which again she refused to give me. All I know is that her name is XXXX and she is a manager in account support department. I should be able to speak to someone professional about my account and not treated this way when I have all of my checking and savings numerous accounts with this company. I never wanted this account to begin with I was constantly pressured any time I would go to the bank to make a personal account there because they wanted to meet there quota for the month. I have even gone in to try to cancel the account because they charge a monthly service fee and they wo n't allow me to and try to talk me out of it and say just set up one deposit into there every month to eliminate this fee. There are many other banks in this area that will not charge these fees and I would rather use them. In addition to this I told XXXX I do not want to be charged excessive fees I want to close the account. She refused to close the account. She told me she will not close it I have a balance. I told her to take it out of my other account and close all of them I do n't want their services in which she still refused to do so. I do not feel my money is safe with this company and I feel they are predatory bankers based on my experiences with them.

I have XXXX hard inquiries for XX/XX/XXXXon my Equifax credit report. Only XXXX of them belong to me : 1. XXXX 's XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and 2. XXXX XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 

For the other XXXX inquiries I did NOT sign a credit application or otherwise complete any authorization to review my credit. The Equifax rep in XXXX (??? ) said I must contact each company and resolve this on my own. My lawyer said the Equifax fraud department, who I asked to speak with, should handle this since they are responsible for confirming everything they put on my credit report. 

Can you please help me get this straightened out? 

Thank you.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
On six separate occasions, both in writing and online through CFPB I have tried to get a derogatory remark that is not mine removed from my credit report. It is removed temporarily and then allowed to be posted again under different names, each time being harder and harder to contact the debt collection agency that is breaking the law with this  reporting. On XX/XX/2020 the original creditor to the debt in question, XXXX XXXX, verified in writing to my physical address that the account was NOT mine. Despite this and numerous complaints the debt collectors have continuously placed the account on my report. When a credit reporting agency has removed it, they've altered the name of the business holding the debt and reissued it as new under the different holding name. Besides being illegal this has made applying for a home mortgage impossible because I can't guarantee a new debt collection for {$780.00} which is not mine, as verified by the original creditor, won't randomly show up on my credit reports despite being removed on 4 separate occasions prior to this. This last time XXXX  has allowed the debt collection agency to again post this collections account, which has been verified as not belonging to me, but also allowed them to have a fake name " Collection '' as the original creditor and debt holder. Neither of which is accurate.
