Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding unauthorized accounts appearing on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to have these accounts removed, they persist, causing significant damage to my financial reputation and well-being. The accounts in question are in clear violation of 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes. It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IL)

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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 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 that are reported 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, XXXX 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I am utterly disappointed right now, you complete disregard your own stated timeline. In your memo dated, it's explicitly stated that the results of the investigation would be provided to me within 30 days. That deadline has come and gone without a single word from them regarding the status or findings. 

This lack of follow-through and blatant failure to uphold their commitment is unacceptable. You are the bureau and you have ample time to conduct your work and there is no justified reason for this excessive delay in sharing conclusions. In your memo built an expectation that I relied upon, and your inaction represents a breach of that assurance.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.
