Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CT)

This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ).

Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ). 
Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b. 

I demand that the following items be deleted immediately from my credit report :

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

I am writing to formally demand immediate action regarding your improper handling of my account, specifically related to the vehicle loan tied to XXXX XXXX and account number ending in XXXX. As evidenced by the enclosed IRS Form 1099-C, dated XX/XX/XXXX, my debt in the amount of {$38000.00} was legally discharged on that date. Despite this discharge, XXXX XXXX has continued to collect payments from me and has also reported this account as charged off and delinquent on my credit report since XX/XX/XXXX. 

Violations : Failure to Recognize Debt Discharge : Under federal law, once a debt is discharged, creditors are prohibited from taking any further action to collect the debt. XXXX XXXX continued collection efforts, following the discharge documented in the 1099-C, violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and U.S. Bankruptcy Code ( 11 U.S. Code 524 ), which both protect consumers from creditor collection attempts on discharged debts. 

Repossession and Sale of the Vehicle : XXXX XXXX repossessed the vehicle despite the discharge of the loan. You then sold the vehicle and retained all proceeds from the sale, which is an additional violation of my rights. Since the loan was legally discharged, any collection activityincluding repossessionwas illegal. I am entitled to recover the total amount of payments made after the discharge, as well as the proceeds from the sale of the vehicle. 

False Credit Reporting : Despite the debt cancellation, XXXX XXXX has continued to report the account as " charged off '' and delinquent, causing significant damage to my credit report. This is in clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that creditors furnish accurate information to credit reporting agencies. XXXX XXXX continued false reporting has caused significant harm to my financial reputation, including denied credit applications, increased interest rates, and emotional distress for over three years.

Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

Please review the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.
