I previously sent a letter asking for the documentation you used to verify these late payments, such as a transactional history, since what's reporting is not in line with any of my records and I know for certain that what's reporting is incorrect and inaccurate. Late payments affect my scores by a great deal, for sure you know that. How would you feel if the late payments reporting are not true but it keeps on weighing down your scores. SEE ATTACHED.

" 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 contacted Transunion early XXXX to ask what I needed to submit to get my name changed/ corrected. I mailed them a judge signed court order granting my name and gender marker change. I sent that along with a copy of my government issued ID and social security card and a letter informing them of what the documents were for and what needed to be done. I then received a letter addressed to a name that wasnt even my prior name ( more like a nickname to my old name ) attached to my new name. I find this intentional with malice intent. I am suing them for negligent misrepresentation, civil tort, infliction of emotional distress, XXXX and XXXX XXXX

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.

I am formally disputing the recent update to my credit report on XX/XX/scrub> 2024, regarding the XXXX XXXX account and requesting a re-investigation of all reported details. First, I dispute the balance of {$2300.00}, which exceeds the original credit limit of {$2000.00}. This reporting is both inaccurate and misleading, as it reflects a utilization rate of 117 %, despite the account being charged off. Under FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), credit reporting agencies must ensure maximum possible accuracy, and this discrepancy should be corrected or removed. Additionally, I challenge XXXX XXXX XXXX status as the creditor. I do not acknowledge this debt, and I request proof of XXXX XXXX legal right to report this debt, specifically a valid contractual agreement containing my full signature that establishes my obligation to repay the debt. Without such documentation, this reporting violates FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ), which mandates that only accurate and verifiable information can be furnished by a creditor. 
Furthermore, I request verification that XXXX XXXX is still the legal owner of the debt. If this debt has been transferred or sold, XXXX XXXX should not be reporting it, in accordance with FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ). I also dispute the current payment status, marked as In Collections/Charge-off with a past due amount of {$2300.00}, since this account was closed and charged off on XX/XX/scrub> 2024. No additional payments should be marked as past due, making this reporting inaccurate under FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i. Moreover, the worst payment status is incomplete, violating FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681c, and should be corrected or removed. Lastly, I dispute the remarks stating " Charged off as bad debt ; Dispute resolved, '' as I do not agree with the resolution of my prior dispute. These remarks are misleading and should be removed, as per FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2. I request a thorough re-investigation of all the account details, including the balance, creditor status, payment status, and remarks. I ask that all inaccuracies be corrected or removed from my credit report. Please provide written confirmation of the results of your investigation and a valid contractual agreement containing my full signature to substantiate this debt.
