Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

The credit bureaus keep disrespecting the laws. I showed them multiple times of how they are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) the credit bureaus have to modify or delete accounts that are not reporting accurately According to 15 USC 1681b ( 1 ) the credit bureaus dont have no written premission According to 15 USC 1681 I have the right to privacy According to 15 USC 1681s-2 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. 
( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate. 

I can go on about how they keep undermining the law. 

The credit bureaus have no respect for the laws. 

Someone needs to hold them accountable for this

This letter is a formal complaint that Transunion has been reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit information on my Credit Report. I understand that mistakes happen but your inaccurate information could cost me in higher interest rates and I have enough expenses as it is. I have previously disputed this item with you Reference number : XXXX XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy- Filed date XX/XX/2022 and in response TransUnion verified the item as accurate, stating that they have verified the information with the court. I contacted the court and their response is enclosed. It is clear they do not report to you or any credit bureau for that matter, therefore your original response verifying the item with the court was either an error or a lie. Either way, the reporting requirements do not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681I ) and the information must be deleted immediately.

Attached is the letter from the court. the COURT does not verify with THIRD PARTY AGENCIES or CREDIT BUREAUS.

I have contacted XXXX and several creditors that obtained my credit report without authorization, and demanded to see any legit authorization from me. No one has provided any proof, not the creditors, not the credit reporting agency. XXXX, XXXX and XXXX should request to see proof that proper authorization was obtained to request credit reports. They admit that no documentation is required to obtain credit reports. This practice is fraudulent, illegal.

If you require further assistance or wish to provide additional documentation during the research process, reply to this email or contact us. 

Sincerely, Federal Student Aid I have not heard ANYTHING and I've called FSA and Aidvantage, my loan servicer, multiple times and no one has any information. I have also uploaded and emailed 31 bank statements showing the payments made that I'd requested a refund for in the amount referenced below - copy from my complaint case to FSA. 

I was refunded the amount of money I'd paid towards my student loans after the IDR adjustment date ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 

However, prior to this reimbursement, I tried calling my servicer 10-20 times starting XX/XX/XXXX asking what I need to do to get refunded for payments made during the Covid payment pause, etc. and/or what amount I'd be refunded. I NEVER rec 'd any answers, no one was EVER able to help me nor tell me the refund amount. I have phone records of all calls to the servicer. I was not refunded {$7500.00} for the payments I made between XX/XX/XXXX ( after the covid pause started ) and XX/XX/XXXX via XXXX payments - the majority of the {$59.00} weekly. I do have all receipts if you need proof. Please research, thank you - really appreciate it - and call me at XXXX.

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (WA)

Overview : I am member of Costco and have their Citi Card. 
I am writing about what I feel is a deceptive " Flex Payment Plan '' offered by CitiBank ' s Costco Visa Card which basically guarantees that people will end up paying interest on their non-flex items due to lack of clarify in Citi 's banks billings and on individual members ' account pages on the citi.com site. I contacted Citi about it and was told that they have received many calls from Costco customers due to the lack of clarity and transparency of this program. They did take my complaint.

I tried to call Costco about this as they are the ones who have the relationship with Citi to use their name on the Citi card. I am unable to discover a way to contact Costco about this despite the fact I have been a member since XXXX. 
I am asking that you help Citi Costco Card members get clarity on the amount of payments they need to make monthly to avoid interest payments accruing on their Flex and non-Flex balances due. I am also asking you contact Costco who has a contract with Citi company. I do not believe it fits Costco 's vendor ethics policy to allow Citi to treat their customers in such a deceptive manner. 
Note : I regularly pay my account in full every month, however, I was interested in this no interest " Flex '' manner to spread my high dollar travel item over XXXX months in addition to paying my regular non-flex monthly charges. 

Situation : In @ XXXX of XXXX, Citi started to offer a Flex payment plan for high dollar purchases. 
A choice was given about how long a period a person wished to have to pay their Flex item in full. I chose the 3 month program for payment in full of my high dollar purchase with no interest for the travel item on my XXXX bill of {$6300.00}. However, my XXXX bill did not reflect the Flex Plan amount for the XXXX payment. 
I went to the Citi.com site for my account and it stated I could either pay my account in full of {$7000.00} or a payment of @ {$100.00} which recognized my Flex amount. However, my math said I should pay XXXX of my {$6300.00} ( {$2100.00} ) plus my non-Flex amount of {$680.00} for a total of {$2800.00} to avoid any interest. I called Citi.com and confirmed this with a representative who was very helpful and said he had multiple calls from people confused about what payment to make to avoid interest. I feel that the average person ( I have a XXXX ) would end up paying interest they never intended due to Citibank 's deceptive billing practices.
