Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against several credit reporting agencies for what I believe to be violations of federal laws concerning the reporting and disclosure of my credit information. My concerns are based on violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Privacy Act of 1974, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act as well as 15 USC 1681 where the credit that is reporting should be 100 % accurate.

The credit bureaus are in violation because all three bureaus are not reporting the same information for one specific company.

1. Violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681a Exclusions : According to 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( 2 ) Exclusions ( A ) ( i ), credit reports should not contain information solely about transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. I have observed that my credit report contains detailed transaction history, which appears to be in violation of this provision. This inclusion of transaction history is not only contrary to the FCRA but also impinges on the accuracy and fairness of my credit report.

2. Violation of the Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 U.S.C. 552a ) : Under 5 U.S.C. 552a, no agency shall disclose any record contained in a system of records by any means of communication to any person or to another agency without prior written consent from the individual concerned. Specifically : Student Loans Reporting : My credit report contains information regarding my student loans that appears to be disclosed without my written consent. This disclosure is a potential violation of the Privacy Act unless it falls under specific exceptions such as routine uses or needs for the record by agency employees performing their duties. 
The law provides exceptions for disclosures, including : To officers or employees of the agency who need the record for their duties.

Required under Section 552 of this title.

Routine uses as defined under the Privacy Act.

Census or survey-related activities.

Statistical research or reporting records that are not individually identifiable.

3. Violation of 15 U.S.C. 6802 ( Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ) : Under 15 U.S.C. 6802, financial institutions are prohibited from disclosing nonpublic personal information to third parties without proper authorization. I have noticed collections on my credit report that appear to have been shared with third parties without my consent, thereby violating this statutory requirement. The unauthorized sharing of my information is a serious concern and warrants immediate review.

My account with XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX 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 ( 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 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX 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!
