Consumer complaint received 2023-08-16
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

I am emotionally frustrated and disappointed to lodge this formal complaint against the credit reporting agency. Despite my numerous disputes dated [ INSERT THE DATE OF DISPUTES ], XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion have callously disregarded my previous requests. Their failure to uphold reasonable procedures to ensure the utmost accuracy, as mandated by 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), in the credit reports they publish is deeply disheartening. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681i, it is clearly stated that XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX are obliged to conclude the investigation within 30 days from the date they received my dispute and provide a response. However, to my immense frustration, I have not received any response, nor have they taken the necessary steps to address the inaccuracies present in my credit report. 
I've also included the dispute letters that I sent for your reference. I'd like to point out the urgency of the situation and demand that the inaccurate information on my credit report be removed. This demand is based on the violation of both 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i. I am disappointed that the credit rating agencies in question have not reacted quickly to my complaints. It is worrying and aggravating the situation in question that such a lack of urgency has not been addressed. In addition, the information they have provided is not merely incorrect but also misleading. This error of reporting is a significant and material mistake on the part of them. 
According to 15 US Code 1681a ( 4 ), consumer reporting agencies must respect my right to privacy but clearly, my right to privacy as a consumer has been violated by you publicly reporting this information when I never gave your organization permission to report my information.

This is very frustrating. Experian is not properly investigating my credit.

Experian is ignoring my rights and letting outsiders access my personal information each month and is harming my reputation! They are fake verifying me with old addresses I never lived at. They are not properly investigating.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (FL)

The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Need information about your loan balance or loan terms
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc. ()

The balance on my account is incorrect. I have emailed Aidvantage about this issue but I have not heard back from them in three weeks. 

I used to have an account with XXXX before my account got switched over to Aidvantage. Before the switch, I paid off all the interest and paid {$1400.00} towards my principle balance. On XX/XX/ I noticed that interest had accrued on my account of {$220.00}. Which shouldn't have happened, because the COVID forbearance period was still in effect. I brought this up to XXXX and they said that there was an issue with updating accounts and that it would be handled. Towards the end of XX/XX/2023, my account was transfered to Aidvantage with the accrued interest. I emailed Aidvantage on XX/XX/XXXX and was told to allow up to 90 days for all the information to update. Fast forward to XXXX XXXX XXXX I have emailed my situation to Aidvantage but have yet to hear back from them after three weeks. Before this random accrued interest appeared on my account, and before the loan service switch, my principal balance was at {$29000.00} with {$0.00} in accrued interest- this is what should be my current balance... but now my account states that my balance is at {$29000.00}. I did happen to notice that my payment history from when I was making payments to XXXX has not been transfered over to my account ( at least, I am unable to see it ). But before my account was switched, I was able to take screenshots of my payment history and the randomly accrued interest which I would be happy to share. 

As we all know, payments resume this XX/XX/2023. I would like for this issue to be resolved so it doesn't become a more complicated and bigger mess to untangle.

My account with 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 60 days 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.

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!

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent.

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.
