Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request. 

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

XX/XX/year> Dear CFPB, Subject : Demand for Immediate Correction of Erroneous Late Payment Reporting I am filing a formal complaint against TransUnion for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for account # XXXX with SECURITY FIN. Despite multiple requests for correction ( letters dated XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> ), no adjustments have been made to reflect the accurate status of my account, violating both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 
FCRA Violations : Under 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements at least 21 days before the payment due date. The late payment reporting on my account suggests a failure to comply with this requirement. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681i mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information in consumer files, which has not been upheld in my case. 
TILA Violations : The Truth in Lending Act emphasizes the necessity for accurate and timely disclosures to consumers. This inaccurate reporting of late payments has caused undue harm to my creditworthiness, negatively impacting my financial standing. 
Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) : This act reinforces the responsibility of creditors to provide timely statements to consumers, ensuring they are not penalized unfairly for issues such as delayed statements or erroneous reporting. 
Summary of Errors on Account : 60-Day Late Payment : Incorrectly reported as 60 days late in XXXX, despite my timely payment history. 
Account Status and Remarks : Inaccurately listed as " Closed '' and " Late 60 Days '' on XX/XX/year>, yet no corrections were made following my initial disputes. 
Dispute Status : Incorrectly reflected as " Account not disputed, '' even though Ive raised disputes on XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, which remain unresolved. 
Requested Resolution : I am formally requesting that the inaccurate late payment notation be removed from my credit report immediately, as it does not reflect my true payment history. Additionally, I request that TransUnion provide written confirmation of this correction within 30 days of receiving this letter. Should this issue remain unresolved, I am prepared to escalate the complaint, including potential legal action and further complaints with relevant agencies. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
