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

I filed a complaint with the three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. They ignored my complaint and accused me of using a third party to file it. This is not true, as I submitted the complaint myself. Attached are some letters and my ID for your review. If they continue to ignore my complaint, I will file a lawsuit against them and demand compensation for the damage they have caused.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: PLANET HOME LENDING, LLC (MD)

Planet Home Lending is the current Loan provider for my personal VA loan. My house is on the market and another Veteran is interested in assuming the VA loan for my home. 

I called Planet Home Lending to verify the assumption process and find the next steps. ( XXXX ). 
The customer support collected the potential buyers information, then told me the process could take up to 6 months to complete, per their internal policy. 

I called their company again ( XXXX ) to verify the 6 month process, and their front facing customer support personnel ( a new a different person ) told me the same thing. They refused to elaborate on the process and told me that was their policy. After I informed them I would be taking this up with the state, VA, Consumer finance, and a personal XXXX complaint ; they proceeded to " review '' their policy for 20 minutes. Then they told me their policy was actually for a 2 month turn around for loan assumption processing. 

The VA has policy out since XX/XX/2023 ( Circular XXXX ) that makes this a 45 day process for loan providers to move VA assumptions. It also states that if it takes longer than that, we are authorized to request VA involvement, and possible shifting of loan underwriting to the VA. 

this company has a customer support policy to tell veterans unrealistic and scary timeframe turn arounds on beneficial programs, that would save Military and Veteran personnel financially. It directly support the Loan industry to scare veterans from a lengthy process. If I did not press the issues and call the VA, and instead just pushed their policy to the potential buyer, I may have lost that potential buyer.

This is predatory in nature, and the fact that two separate customer support personnel gave me the same information up front, but had follow up information after pressed, shows a disregard to the VA policies and to veterans.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, there are laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protect me.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads 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 accounts listed without my expressed written consent.

These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Issue: Problem with the payoff process at the end of the loan — 
Company: RSVP Lending, LLC dba RSVP Loans (MO)

XXXX setup a payment with XXXX at RSVP Loans to payoff my balance in full of {$640.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Through email correspondence XXXX confirmed that my loan would be paid off in full on that date. That never happened. I've emailed XXXX numerous times since then with no response. Yesterday XX/XX/XXXX a loan payment was deducted from my account in the amount of {$280.00}. This is unacceptable and I feel like unethical if I'm still going to have to pay whatever the remaining balance is. Had there been an option online for me to pay off my loan in full, I would have done so, but there is no option to do that.

My account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, AND XXXX 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 to paid as agreed 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 XXXX XXXX AND 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
