Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

Last month I called XXXX XXXX to get an extension to XX/XX/XXXX due to me taking money from my retirement on the XXXX and money would be processed into my bank account by XX/XX/XXXX. They granted me an extension and told me that was he longest they could grant and I told them that was the date I was asking the extension for. I asked for an extension only because due to my prior tenant nonpayment of rent and damaging my home in Florida and me being stationed in Illinois I have been paying the mortgage in Florida since XXXX and the bills in florida on top of my rent here and bills here in Illinois. I needed help because I dont not have it at that time but I told them I would have it XX/XX/XXXX and was granted that extension. They dont even wait past XX/XX/XXXX. They were untrue of helping me and still did the late payment. Not long after XX/XX/XXXX which was the date I paid it on I received a late payment on my credit bureaus. If I had known this I wouldve agreed to the arrangement. This unfair and doesnt abide by the FCRA regulations. I just needed a few days extension until I received my money and they granted me the extension but still ended up putting a late payment on my credit reports. Please review the call I made to them last month when I was told my extension was granted. This late payment took XXXX points off of my credit bureaus that I am trying to repair due to having to maintain both locations until I can get my home fully repaired and rented out again. I have more money going out than coming in and trying to repair it has been costing me on top of paying for two locations. Im XXXX  and having bad credit can get me kicked out and I am close to retirement. They have continued to be unfair and not honest. Also one late payment was removed last year and now I have two late payments on my credit again.

I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

My account with this company 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 MONTHS REPORTING LATE 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.

After receiving a copy of my Transunion credit report, I noticed a few unauthorized credit inquiries that are reporting on my credit report. After many attempts of removing these unverifiable inquiries, they remain on my credit report. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), the credit bureau in question, Transunion, is required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts that are posted on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for their reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. 

I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract accompanied with my signature ) that Transunion has on file for the accounts listed below. Failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified inquiries must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, the account list below must be removed. 

I demand the following accounts be verified or removed immediately.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a payment f {$1000.00} to my XXXX XXXX account. In XXXX, they were still reporting my previously held balance of {$2000.00} to the credit bureaus. I called them and asked them when they would report the correct balance and they said after the close date on XX/XX/XXXX. I filed a dispute with the credit bureaus and they corrected the balance. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, they changed the report and returned it to the XX/XX/XXXX balance of {$2000.00}. I have not used my card at all and my balance only decreased since my XX/XX/XXXX payment, it has not increased. I filed another dispute, uploading the payment history and true date balance and the the score was corrected within 5 days. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX has once again returned my balance report to {$2000.00} with the credit bureaus. That has not been my balance for 46 days and 2 billing cycles. As of today, my balance with XXXX is {$840.00}. 
Their fraudulent reporting has caused me irreparable harm as I am in the process of moving and due to the yo-yo in my credit score and repeated false balance reports, I am unable to obtain a mortgage and could be homeless by the end of the year. I have been a loyal customer and have never missed a single payment. It is unethical that they in poor practice to falsely report consumer debt and payment information.
