I'm furious with how XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX are screwing up my credit report! Ive tried to fix these errors, but you keep ignoring me, which breaks the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681i.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a XXXX  ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the XXXX, 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 XXXX 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 XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a credit alert from Equifax that a new line of installment loan of {$300.00} was opened in my name and my credit score dropped by XXXX points as a result. Due to this information, I activated a credit fraud identity alert to all the credit reporting agencies and also put in a freeze in my credit report to ensure no unauthorized loan is opened in my name until this issue is sorted out. 
I later reported the issue to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about an unauthorized installment account that was opened in my name and that they should investigate and removed that account from my credit report since it is an unauthorized and fraudulent account. To my surprise, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX reported back to me through email that they have concluded their investigation and the account was reported correctly ( see attached ). 
I have issued another complaint to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX with more information but they still not willing to close this account and report back to the credit monitoring bureaus so that it can be taken off my credit score. 
Please kindly assist in this regard. Thanks
