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

My account with TransUnion was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 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.

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 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

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

I have previously disputed with XXXX, XXXX and Equifax regarding several accounts which I found inaccurate. Up to date, I have received no response nor proof that they are doing proper investigation with my dispute. They ignored my rights to obtain an accurate credit report. They are non compliant with the FCRA. These erroneous reports badly hurt my credibility.

I want to dispute these accounts because it was affecting my credit report, it was caused by Identity Theft. I did not make these charges. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. These accounts were taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, these accounts shouldn't be in my report. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

Subject : XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Bureau 's Failure to Conduct Reinvestigation for Account with XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a critical issue with the reinvestigation process on my credit report as mandated by the regulations outlined in 15 USC 1666 ( b ) and 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ) ( i ). The credit bureau has failed to remove a late payment from my account with XXXX XXXX despite the necessary steps being taken on my part to rectify this incorrect information. 
I recently disputed the presence of a late payment on my XXXX XXXX account ( Account # XXXX ), which has been negatively impacting my credit history. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I have the right to an accurate and fair credit report. After my dispute, the credit bureau was obligated to conduct a reinvestigation into the matter and ensure that any inaccuracies are promptly corrected. 
Despite the statutory obligation, the credit bureau has failed to carry out a proper reinvestigation and correct the inaccurate information on my credit report. This negligence has not only affected my credit score but also compromised my financial well-being. 
I request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter urgently and ensure that the credit bureau and XXXX XXXX comply with the regulations stipulated under the law. I am seeking prompt action to rectify this error and restore the accuracy of my credit report. 
Attached to this letter are supporting documents relevant to my case, including copies of correspondence with the credit bureau and XXXX XXXX. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution. 
Thank you for your prompt assistance in this regard.
