Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (AZ)

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX 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/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. 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!

The account listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with XXXX credit reporting agencies. This account were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the account removed from my file.

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are handled
Company: Immediate Credit Recovery (OH)

I received a Notice of Proposed Wage Garnishment dated XXXX XXXX, 2016. The letter indicates that I have 30 days to request hearing and/or agree to a voluntary payment arrangement equal to XXXX % of my " disposable income ''. In an effort to avoid garnishment on XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Immediate Credit Recovery, the current servicer of the loan. I spoke with an agent, XXXX at extension XXXX. Initially I was advised that my loan did not qualify for rehabilitation. I inquired why I was eligible two months prior but not eligible now, she double checked and determined that the loan was eligible for rehabilitation. She proceeded to capture financial information ( gross pay less taxes, insurance and expenses ) and calculated a potential monthly payment amount, contingent on confirmation of the financial information provided. The proposed plan amount {$920.00}, my calculated disposable income is $ XXXX/month. I was also provided an option to settle the balance for approx. $ XXXX however am unable to settle the balance. On XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to XXXX to confirm how the proposed rehab/plan amount was calculated, she indicated that it is based on XXXX % of my AGI. She also indicated that there was another repayment plan which takes expenses into account, she referred to this as a " reasonable and affordable calculator '' however again, is not based on XXXX % of my disposable income as indicated in the letter. I asked XXXX to clarify that the option which was written in the letter, 15 % of disposable income, is not an option for repayment - she confirmed. On XXXX/XXXX/2016, I called the Dept. of Ed and spoke with someone in customer service who referred me back to Immediate Credit Recovery, Special Assistance Unit, explaining my concerns and requesting a call back. I called again on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and left message. To date, I have not received a response to either message and indicated in both that I am attempting to respond timely to avoid garnishment as indicated in the letter, action is required by XXXX. My concern is that the letter is clear, I have an option to avoid garnishment and by agreeing to repay XXXX % of my disposable income. I wish to repay XXXX % of my disposable income however Immediate Credit Recovery is not providing this as an option and is non-responsive to escalated calls. Either the US Department of Education has provided false, misleading or deceptive information in the letter dated XXXX XXXX or Immediate Credit Recovery is unwilling to honor the option written in the same communication to pursue wage garnishment which is abusive and/or deceptive.

In order to make our next mortgage payment on XXXX/XXXX/16 ... .. 
we need to get a 'hardship loan ' from my wife 's corporate XXXX account. 
Management of the XXXX account have agreed our emergency 'hardship loan ' can be paid immediately supporting documentation is received from our mortgage company, which is Wells Fargo Mortgage.The XXXX management tells us " XXXX rules require some kind of statement that if payment is not received by such and such date foreclosure proceedings will begin. 
Can be a simple letter in company letterhead from a loan officer, but need that to release funds. '' We will be in foreclosure if we do not make the payment on XXXX XXXX, but the only people stopping us from making the payment on time is Wells Fargo. Despite asking them on the phone for written confirmation, as required above, and holding for conversations with XXXX departments, they all refused to send us the required notice which represents the true state of the loan. 
So Wells will not cooperate to send us a timely notice to enable us to pay the mortgage, and will then claim we did not pay the mortgage and try to foreclose and take our home. 
This is unfair at best, entrapment if this is not immediately taken care by overnight mail to our home of XXXX years.At XXXX years old and after very serious illness, we expect better from Wells Fargo bank.

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding Equifaxs refusal to grant me access to my My Equifax account despite my multiple attempts to verify my identity and comply with their requests. 
Over the past several months, I have sent all required documentation to verify my identity on multiple occasions. This documentation has been sent via certified mail, which has proven to be both time-consuming and costly for me. Despite having proof of delivery, Equifax continues to claim they have not received the information. 
This ongoing issue has caused significant frustration, as I have followed every protocol they have requested, yet I still do not have access to my account. I am concerned about the lack of response and transparency from Equifax, especially considering the sensitive nature of my personal information. 
I am seeking your assistance to resolve this matter, as I am unsure what further steps I can take to gain access to my account and address any potential errors in my credit file. 
Please let me know if any additional information is needed to assist with this inquiry. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
