Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

duty pursuant to the FCRA, it is TRANSUNIONs to be reporting correct and accurate information on my credit report and file, however they are NOT. TRANSUNION is reporting 1 inaccurate late payment for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account now closed. This includes a 30 day late payment posted in XX/XX/2021. This is incorrect and supposed to be reported as PAID AS AGREED. Furthermore, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), a consumer report does NOT contain information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. A late payment constitutes a transaction. With that said, the reporting of the inaccurate late payments results in TRANSUNION violating my federally protected consumer rights. To add to this, I did NOT give TRANSUNION written instruction/permission to furnish this inaccurate late payment on my consumer report and file, violating 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). It is clear that TRANSUNION has violated my federally protected consumer rights under the FCRA and the inaccurate reporting is causing me and my reputation severe harm and discrimination.
