" 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. ''

My account with this company is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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 MONTHS REPORTING LATE 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 XXXX XXXX  before the payment due date.

This company never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX XXXX 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 am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (WA)

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.

Ive been in communications with ( TransUnion, XXXX or XXXX ) about inaccurate personal information on my credit report.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CO)

In me and my husbands attempt to secure a mortgage authorization letter, I worked with a lender beginning on XX/XX/2020. On 5 occasions, 1 original applications and the 4 follow-up applications, the lender received notification from the credit bureaus ( Experian, XXXX  and XXXX  ) with the messages that our credit are frozen and not available as show at the bottom of this communication. XXXX notifications came across our cell phones on the 5 times which we responded to the request to allow access to our lender. 
I've tried numerous times over the last 5 weeks to resolve this with the credit bureaus which is impossible as no agents are available through the XXXX to assist - especially with Experian. We have probably 12 different numbers that we have tried with the 3 bureaus.

Working on-line with our 3 credit bureau accounts for my husband and myself, we see that there is no credit freeze on all accounts, and no fraud-alerts on 2 bureaus ( XXXX  and XXXX  ). Experian doesn't allow fraud alert removals on-line. It was our thought process over all these weeks to remove all freeze and fraud alerts so facilitate the lenders ability to get to our credit data. We intend to put the freezes and fraud alerts back on the our 3 credit bureaus account when our lender successfully pulls the credit report data.

This has left us exposed to fraud which is usually available through the credit bureaus in the meantime. 

We can't get anyone to help us with the 3 bureaus to even understand what the problems is. I sent registered letters to the 3 credit bureaus on XX/XX/2020 to ask them to remove all freezes. 

We are at a loss of how to get our credit information made available to our lender which is hampering our ability put an offer on a home.
