Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

My account with this XXXX XXXX is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in XX/XX/year> to be removed They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

This company never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Upon reviewing my updates, the incorrect information was still found in my reports which I believe has been taken care of due to the written appeals I sent. The last letter sent to the 3 Credit Bureaus was XX/XX/2022, but no response was ever received from them to date. Thus, their action has violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i, which states that continued reports of the unverified information without any proof provided, within the time allowed by law, is not authorized.

I am rejecting this response because : The Credit Bureau recent response to my complaint regarding inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Despite my numerous attempts to dispute these erroneous accounts and rectify the situation, XXXX has failed to adequately address and resolve the issues at hand. 

Over the past several months, I have repeatedly contacted The Credit Bureau, providing detailed information and supporting documentation to demonstrate the inaccuracies present in my credit report. Unfortunately, each attempt has been met with insufficient action and a lack of proper investigation into the matters I raised. This ongoing negligence has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness and has had adverse effects on my financial well-being. 

I am now seeking the intervention and assistance of the CFPB to help resolve these persistent issues. The Credit Bureau failure to correct these inaccuracies and conduct a thorough investigation is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, they have breached my consumer rights to a fair and accurate credit report by not fulfilling their obligation to investigate disputes properly and correct any errors. 

The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate disputed information and make corrections if inaccuracies are found. 
The Credit Bureau continuous disregard for this responsibility has not only violated my rights but has also perpetuated the damages being done to me as a consumer. 

I trust that the CFPB will take appropriate action to ensure that The Credit Bureau adheres to the FCRAs requirements and conducts a comprehensive review of my disputes. I am seeking a resolution that includes the correction of all inaccuracies on my credit report and a guarantee that my consumer rights will be respected moving forward.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding an invalid medical debt that has been reported on my credit report. Despite my efforts to resolve this issue with the debt collector, I have not received adequate verification of the debt, and I believe it is not mine. Below are the details of my complaint : Name : Lockhart Morris and Montgomery Address : N/A Phone Number : N/a Debt Details : Medical Debt Amount : {$930.00} Date of Alleged Debt : XX/XX/XXXX Account Number : N/A Description of the Issue : On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notification from Lockhart that a medical debt had been added to my credit report. However, I have no knowledge of this debt and have not received any services from the medical provider in question. 

I contacted the debt collector on XX/XX/XXXX to dispute the debt and requested verification of the debt and proof of my identity in relation to it. To date, I have not received any satisfactory evidence that this debt belongs to me. 

As per 15 U.S. Code 1681i, I am entitled to a thorough investigation and verification of the disputed information. The lack of proper evidence provided by the debt collector leads me to believe that this debt is not mine/ fraudulent

I am curious as to how you verified this information and would like to receive physical documentation to support this erroneous information on my report. Ive been a victim of identity theft so there is no way you were able to verify anything. FCRA states information reporting has to be 100 % verifiable and 100 % accurate otherwise the information must be removed under federal law. Your company has been reporting unverifiable and inaccurate information on my credit report which has damaged my credit. I intend to litigate if this information is not DELETED from my report. Please do not " update '' or " verify this information again without doing a due diligence investigation. I am requesting to be provided with the written contract & physical documentation to support the information that is being reported on my credit report via USPS mail. Screenshots will not suffice. Send my actual signature on a contract. As this debt is Not mine. I am asking for this verification because my credit score is important to me, and after learning of my identity being compromised I believe it is being unjustly degraded as a result of this unfortunate error. I would therefore request that you please do no send me a template letter in response to this request. I am in the process of planning a legal case, so I will need specific answers to the specific questions asked of you in this letter. I have faith that your establishment will do the right thing and truly investigate this matter and if you do not have proof the debt is valid which you will not because of identity theft then please DELETE the information. I expect to receive a response within 15 days of receipt of this letter, or I will expect to see the items in question permanently expunged from my record.
