Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ)

I am writing to dispute an unauthorized account that appears on my credit report under XXXX XXXX XXXX. This account was opened on XX/XX/2023, for the amount of {$250.00}. I did not authorize this loan, and I am requesting that it be removed from my credit report immediately. 

I became aware of this unauthorized account while reviewing my credit report. I promptly contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX to inform them of the fraudulent account and to request that it be closed and removed from my credit history. I have also taken the necessary steps to protect my identity, including placing a fraud alert on my credit file with the major credit reporting agencies. 

Despite these actions, the account remains on my credit report, which is negatively affecting my credit score and overall financial well-being. I kindly request that this account be investigated and removed as it was not authorized by me. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (CO)

The loan is transferring from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. Attempted to make payment XX/XX/2023. The website says that I am unable to pay until XXXX. Most everyone 's loan is due on the first. They say no late fees, but this is still costing interest daily. Multiplying the interest everyone is forced to pay while they transition including mine is not right. They should have been ready to receive payments-they are a servicing company. I should not incur extra interest due to them not being ready to accept payments.

If it is determined that they are indeed in violation of the FCRA and Metro 2 guidelines, I ask that you delete all adverse information associated with these accounts from my credit report promptly.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

Following significant data breaches, including those by XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX, my personal information was exposed, leading to identity theft. Starting in XX/XX/year>, my credit report was impacted by several unauthorized inquiries and the opening of a business account, which I did not consent to. Entities such as XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX were involved, and an unauthorized business line of credit was charged off as bad debt with a balance of {$650.00} by XX/XX/year>. 

I have already supplied Transunion with the proper documentation!! They are using this unable to locate credit report-dispute request as a tactic to slow this process and I am not going for it at all. 

All of the complaints has been forwarded to the federal lawyers for review. 


I have submitted disputes to all major credit bureausTransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX while the other bureaus have removed the unauthorized information, TransUnion has failed to conduct a thorough investigation. This ongoing delay has forced me to contact the XXXX XXXX XXXX and pursue legal action under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Per the FCRA, as outlined in the provided attachment, TransUnion is required to remove or correct unverifiable information, which has yet to happen despite several attempts to resolve the issue. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ), consumers have several key rights to ensure the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of their credit information. Specifically, this law mandates that : Credit reporting agencies must investigate disputes regarding inaccurate or incomplete information on a consumers credit report. They are typically required to resolve such disputes within 30 days. 
Inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information must be corrected or deleted from the consumers credit report. If the information can not be verified within the legally required timeframe, it must be removed. 
Consumers have the right to know what is in their file and can request a free credit report once every 12 months from each of the major credit bureaus. 
Consumers must be informed if information in their credit file is used against them in applications for credit, employment, or insurance. 
Consumers have the right to take legal action against credit reporting agencies or creditors that violate the FCRA, including seeking damages for violations. 

In my case, TransUnion has failed to properly investigate and resolve multiple disputes regarding unauthorized accounts and inquiries on my credit report. Despite providing all required documentation and initiating disputes, these inaccuracies have not been corrected, in violation of FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ). Therefore, I am now pursuing legal action to protect my rights and restore the accuracy of my credit report.

I have taken steps to address this issue by reporting the fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. Your actions have caused me significant mental and financial distress by placing an inquiry on my account that I neither authorized nor am responsible for. As a victim of identity theft, I expect this matter to be resolved promptly and properly. Failure to do so may lead me to pursue legal action. 

Due to these inaccurate and fraudulent items, I have been unable to purchase my dream car or adequately provide for my family. Please find attached a copy of a letter I previously sent regarding this matter.

My account with XXXX XXXXXXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX 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 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 greatly value the relationship I have with the following creditors and have consistently made on-time payments forsuch a long time.This isolated incident does not reflect my overall commitment to honoring my financial obligations, and I have since taken steps to ensure this will not happen again. 

Given my otherwise positive payment history, I kindly request that you consider removing this late payment from my credit report as a goodwill gesture. I believe this adjustment would better reflect my responsible credit behavior and would help improve my credit standing.
