I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account though your company claims to have verified this. 
Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. 

As in XXXX XXXX TransUnion, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the XXXX in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

My account with ( CREDITOR NAME ) 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 in those account to be removed.

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.

( CREDITOR NAME ) Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. 
It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. 
I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

I am writing to file a complaint against TransUnion for their failure to properly address my disputes regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. 
On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a dispute letter to TransUnion via USPS certified mail ( tracking # XXXX ) requesting an investigation into inaccurate items on my report. In addition, I disputed incorrect personal information listed on my credit report. To help TransUnion verify my identity and address, I included a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and a recent bill with my current address. 
I received a response from TransUnion dated XX/XX/year>, stating : We recently received a request that included your information, but it didn't appear that you or a properly authorized third party sent it to us. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously, so we won't process requests unless they come directly from you or an authorized third party. 
Subsequently, I sent another dispute letter on XX/XX/year>, because a direct dispute letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX, an account listed on my credit report, was returned to me as undeliverable, making this an unverifiable account. I demanded that TransUnion remove this account. However, I received the same response from TransUnion dated XX/XX/year>, reiterating : We recently received a request that included your information, but it didn't appear that you or a properly authorized third party sent it to us. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously, so we won't process requests unless they come directly from you or an authorized third party. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information in a consumer 's file at a credit bureau is disputed by the consumer, the bureau must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. 
It appears that TransUnion has violated my consumer rights by not conducting a reasonable investigation upon receipt of my disputes, which they are required to do in accordance with the FCRA. 
I am including copies of my dispute letters sent to TransUnion along with TransUnions responses as proof.

It is important to note that making a threat of legal action without the intent to follow through is unlawful. Please understand that I am fully committed to pursuing legal action against your company. Despite my repeated requests for you to investigate and correct the inaccuracies in my credit report, you have consistently failed to do so. 
According to my understanding of the law, you are obligated to investigate and address every request for correction of erroneous information. Your continued disregard for my previous requests is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which provides legal recourse for consumers and imposes penalties and liabilities on consumer reporting agencies and information providers for non-compliance. 

As previously mentioned, this is my final request for you to comply with the FCRA. Should you fail to conduct a thorough investigation of the disputed accounts following this request, I will have no choice but to initiate legal proceedings against your company in my local jurisdiction. You will then be required to come here to defend your actions.
