Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I have identified multiple errors that have adversely affected my credit score. These errors are not a true reflection of my credit history, and I believe they may have resulted from clerical mistakes, identity theft, or outdated information. I am requesting that these inaccuracies be promptly investigated and removed to ensure my credit report accurately reflects my financial responsibility. The incorrect information has caused undue harm to my credit score, which can affect my ability to secure credit and other financial opportunities. I trust that you will address this matter with the urgency it requires and make the necessary corrections.

I submitted a complaint to the Bureaus a XXXX ago, but sadly, the incorrect information on my report is still there. I haven't heard back from them, aside from your notification that the company has replied to my complaint. How can I trust that they have properly investigated the inaccuracies? What steps did they take to verify the accounts? This entire situation is extremely frustrating! Over XXXX days have passed since I filed my complaint, and the disputed accounts remain unchanged. If this persists, I may have to consider legal action due to the significant stress it has caused me. Additionally, I'm worried about the security of my personal information, especially after the data breach involving XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion.

Recently I was reviewing my credit report and I realized that I had a series of negative marks qualified as " late payments '' and that they are affecting my personal life and my growth as this negative mark prevents me from obtaining and building credit and to realize my dreams and has even brought me family problems The negative mark is XXXX : XXXX and is being reported by the XXXX transunion and XXXX respectively and are being violated a number of laws by doing this and also my rights as a consumer. 

To further substantiate the problem I attach the following Legal Grounds for Dispute According to FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) : Exclusions. Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term " consumer report '' does not include : ( i ) Reports that contain only information about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. 

This means that consumer transactions are excluded from consumer reports. FICO and/or any other risk score or algorithm used to calculate a consumers credit score is not part of what defines a " consumer report '' under the law. The legal definition of a consumer report is as follows : Consumer Report. The term " consumer report '' refers to any written, oral, or other communication of any information by a consumer reporting agency that relates to a consumers creditworthiness, credit standing, character, general reputation, or mode of living, and that is used or expected to be used in whole or in part as a factor to determine the consumer 's eligibility for : ( a ) credit or insurance for personal, family, or household purposes ; ( b ) employment purposes; or ( c ) any other purpose authorized under section 1681b of the title. 

FICO or any other credit scoring algorithm is not defined or included in this legal definition of a consumer report. Therefore, the report of transactions between the consumer ( myself ) and the entity ( XXXX  ) constitutes a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681a. 

Additionally, according to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, on the timing of payments : Timing of Payments Timing of Payments. A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures to ensure that each periodic statement, including the information required by Section 1637 ( b ), is sent or delivered to the consumer at least 21 days before the payment due date.

I recently reviewed my credit report and was surprised to discover several negative marks classified as " Late Payments ''. This is contradictory, as I have always made my payments on time. This situation is significantly affecting my ability to access credit, which has a direct impact on my personal and family life. According to the federal regulation 15 U.S.C. 1666b regarding the timing of payments, a creditor may not consider a payment to be late on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan unless it has established reasonable procedures to ensure that each periodic statement, including the information required by Section 1637 ( b ), is sent or delivered to the consumer at least 21 days before the payment is due. Given the above, the presence of these " Late Payment '' marks on my report appears to indicate a possible violation of that rule. Therefore, I believe that an immediate review and correction of this information is essential, as it affects my rights as a consumer and limits my access to credit opportunities.

This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B. According to this law, consumers have the right to dispute and seek correction of billing errors, which include inaccuracies in payment reporting.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

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.
