Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (NJ)

I have an XXXX XXXX credit card that had a credit limit of XXXX. I make my payments on time and today I received a letter that they decreased my credit limit to XXXX, ( My balance is XXXX ) and XXXX to use. They have done this to me on another account I never used, it was a XXXX account with a {$250.00} limit. and a XXXX   XXXX card, that I paid off and hadn't used in a few months. The credit limit was XXXX and they lowered it to {$100.00}, again another ding. I never used the XXXX XXXX card and they lowered the limit to XXXX. So it had an impact on my credit report. This new XXXX XXXX decrease will also affect my report. They told me it had something to do with something in their contract that they can lower the limit at any time, based on my credit report. The report they are using is from XXXX. It's already XXXX and my credit score was less when I first received these cards years ago than it is now. However, 4 other cards that I never used, they closed them, and that did not ding my credit report. How do they get away with this? 

Why am I know getting penalized for patronizing a store and paying my bill on time? I spoke to a " Credit Supervisor of  XXXX. His name was XXXX ID # XXXX. I asked for the name of the Chairman of the Board but he refused to give me that information. What kills me is that they report it to the credit bureaus with absolutely no reason for the decrease. What are my options to alleviate this, I think I only have three XXXX  cards left the others issuing banks alert me if I haven't used a card they will close the account ; that is fair! I understand that and it's not a negative on my report. I can understand not giving me an increase but to decrease it, hurts my credit.

Hello I recently reviewed my consumer report and I noticed that there were two late payments on my account with XXXX XXXX open XX/XX/XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  open XX/XX/XXXX that I havent been late for. In addition to that, I have also noticed that several of my consumer rights have been violated in the midst of these late payments being added to my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as outlined in 15 USC 1681e ( b ), consumer reporting agencies are responsible for providing maximum accuracy when reporting consumer information, however my consumer report has several inaccuracies that I have attached below. In addition to that late payments are considered transactions due to the late fees that are associated with credit cards & according to 15 U.S. Code 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) consumer reports should not include information pertaining to any transactions or experiences between the consumer and the originator of the report. If this is the case, late payments that I am not responsible for should definitely not be reported on my consumer report! I am aware of several other consumer rights that have been violated and I am prepared to settle for civil liability damages that I have suffered as a result of your violations. Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that these payments were late. If proof can not be provided, I ask that any late payments associated with XXXX XXXX for the months of XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for the months of XXXX XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX for the month of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX be updated to paid as agreed on time and NOT DELETED so the account can remain active.

Your cooperation in this matter is crucial to ensure the accuracy of my credit report and to safeguard my rights as a consumer under the FCRA.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

On XX/XX/2018 as a perspective funding source for XXXX XXXX for a personal loan I had requested, XXXX XXXX requested and received a credit report on my person ( XXXX XXXX ) from Trans Union. Trans Union reported to XXXX XXXX  that my credit score was XXXX. When I pulled my report from XXXX XXXX shortly after seeing this information I then checked my score and it showed XXXX, I immediately informed XXXX XXXX that the score given to XXXX XXXX was erroneous. 

Fortunately the persons handling my loan documents took that data in consideration. But you can believe that the amount of interest I was offered on my load is much higher.
