Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NC)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX Bank account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Due to your violations, I will take legal action and submit a complaint for small claims for default judgment, which allows up to {$1000.00} per violation. I am requesting an ALLEGED DEBT to be VALIDATED, pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) validation of debt section, 15 USC 1692g. I also demand a request for accounting of this alleged debt, pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, UCC Article 9-210. Therefore, I demand validation and verification of the alleged debt. Furthermore, it is imperative that you notify XXXX and XXXX to delete this information from my credit report immediately. The account in question is detailed and Unauthorized Accounts include the following : XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX In addition, I am requesting for a copy of the 1099-C filed for the charged-off debt. XXXX XXXX  XXXX must provide this to me, as the consumer, or you will be neglecting to comply with FEDERAL law. This leaves me no choice but to assume that you have neglected to comply with FEDERAL law by not filing a 1099-C as mandated. Consequently, I am compelled to inform you that I will report XXXX XXXX  XXXX to the IRS for potential tax fraud using Form 3949-A if prompt action is not taken. As per IRS regulations, a canceled debt of {$600.00} or more necessitates the filing of a 1099-C form by federal or government agencies, or applicable financial entities. Failure to comply with this requirement constitutes tax fraud, a serious offense that I will not hesitate to report to the IRS. It is essential to understand that a canceled debt is considered ordinary income by the IRS. Consequently, any failure to file a 1099-C form, or any attempt to conceal such actions, constitutes inaccurate reporting. Income is not to be included on a credit report, and any such inclusion violates consumer laws and regulations. Your company 's actions are in clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681s-2, which outlines the responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. Under this statute, it is prohibited to furnish inaccurate information knowingly or with reasonable cause to believe it is inaccurate. It is imperative that you take immediate steps to rectify this situation by deleting the inaccurate information from all consumer reporting agencies. Failure to comply will result in legal action being pursued, including holding XXXX XXXX  XXXX accountable for willful noncompliance under 15 USC 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). This statute stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with FCRA requirements may be liable for damages sustained by the consumer. I urge you to act swiftly and cease reporting this item to avoid further complications. Kindly delete this off my report immediately.

I am filing a complaint against Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX for failing to respond to credit disputes filed over 30 days ago. Despite multiple efforts to address inaccuracies, I have not received any acknowledgment, investigation results, or updates regarding the disputes. These inaccuracies involve the XXXX account and an erroneous bankruptcy reference, which have not been properly verified or corrected. 

Equifax removed the XXXX tradeline after my dispute through CFPB XXXX # XXXX, but XXXX and XXXX failed to address or resolve the issues. The continued reporting of these inaccurate items has severely impacted my credit score, resulting in denials of credit and ongoing financial harm.

My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 to be updated.

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. 


XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION 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 XXXX and It was never provided. 


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


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
