Consumer complaint received 2023-08-23
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 — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Transunion, a consumer reporting agency, for their continued non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically in relation to their failure to address my identity theft report and subsequent identity theft information block request. This complaint is in reference to my previous complaint filed with the CFPB on XX/XX/2023, which was received and opened on XX/XX/2023. The reference number for that complaint is XXXX On XX/XX/2023, I submitted an identity theft report to Transunion, along with all necessary documentation, as required by law. This report was in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681c2, which mandates that a consumer reporting agency must block the reporting of information resulting from alleged identity theft within four business days of receiving appropriate proof of identity, an identity theft report, identification of the disputed information, and a statement by the consumer confirming the information 's inaccuracy. 

As of the current date, XX/XX/2023, it has been well over the four-day threshold, and TransUnion has failed to fulfill their legal obligation to block the disputed information from my consumer report. Furthermore, TransUnion has not provided any investigation details or indications on my consumer report that the alleged accounts are in dispute, as required by law.

This prolonged delay and the lack of cooperation from TransUnion have caused me significant stress and mental strain. I firmly believe that TransUnion is taking advantage of my situation and violating my consumer rights. The FCRA was enacted by Congress to safeguard consumers from the actions of private companies that neglect their duties and responsibilities. TransUnion 's failure to comply with the FCRA has not only caused undue hardship but also undermines the very purpose of this legislation. 

I have raised multiple complaints regarding TransUnion 's conduct to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and I implore you to take appropriate action against TransUnion for their blatant disregard of consumer rights and federal law. TransUnions actions, or lack thereof, have not only exposed their non-compliance but also demonstrated a lack of accountability for their role as a consumer reporting agency. 

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigates this matter thoroughly and holds TransUnion accountable for their actions. Immediate corrective measures are necessary to ensure that my consumer rights are protected, and that TransUnion fulfills its obligations under the FCRA without further delay. 

Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take swift and appropriate action to rectify this situation and ensure that TransUnion adheres to the laws that govern its operations.
