Consumer complaint received 2018-02-07
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent letters to XXXX, XXXX and Transunion disputing the bankruptcies appearing on my credit reports. 

I never received a response from the bureaus from the disputes so I resent the disputes again 1XX/XX/XXXX. 

I then received response from the bureau stating that they have verified the information as accurate. 
XX/XX/XXXX I sent letters to XXXX, XXXX and Transunion regarding the bankruptcies appearing on my credit reports.

T

hese letters explained that I went to the Bankruptcy Court and was told that the Bankruptcy Court is not reporting the bankruptcies to the bureaus as it is not part of their practice. The letters I sent asked for the " Source '' that was providing this information to the bureaus since it was in fact NOT the court as they stated in my credit reports. My credit reports stated that the court was the data furnisher when it was in fact NOT the data furnisher since the court does not furnish information. 

This request was made in accordance with the FCRA, Section 609 a ( 2 ).

XXXX deleted the bankruptices and Transunion deleted one of the bankruptcies. XXXX  did not delete the bankruptcies and stated that they had verified the information as accurate but failed to provide me wit the " Source '' of the information as required by the FCRA, Section 609 a ( 2 ). 

Transunion stated that they had verified the information as accurate for one of the bankruptcies but failed to provide me wit the " Source '' of the information as required by the FCRA, Section 609 a ( 2 ). 

XX/XX/XXXX I therefore sent FINAL letters to XXXX and Transunion regarding the bankruptcies appearing on my credit reports. 

Again, These letters explained that I went to the Bankruptcy Court and was told that the Bankruptcy Court is not reporting the bankruptcies to the bureaus as it is not part of their practice.

The letters I sent asked for the " Source '' that was providing this information to the bureaus since it was in fact NOT the court as they stated in my credit reports. My credit reports stated that the court was the data furnisher when it was in fact NOT the data furnisher since the court does not furnish information. 

This request was made in accordance with the FCRA, Section 609 a ( 2 ). 

I am at my wits end here because they are clearly violating the law and DONT CARE. 
If the Court is not reporting this information to the bureaus then WHO IS and how do they have a legal right to do so? 
It is CLEAR that the court is not reporting any information to the credit bureaus. 
Are the credit bureaus placing this information on the credit reports at their own discretion? 
It is my understanding that only " creditors '' or " credit grantors '' can report information to the credit bureaus. 
This is my final step before taking legal action so I hope the CFPB can take action with the seemingly illegal practices.
