I made a complaint against Transunion in regards to reporting inaccurate information. The companies has committed numerous violations and did not do the right thing and update information accurately.

1. ) The Privacy Act of 1974 was put in place to protect consumers. I never provided written or verbal consent for Transunion to release transactions or personal information. However, the company has furnished personal information that I do not consent to being released. There is no reason my phone number, DOB, employment, and different names are furnished without my written consent or approval. 
2. ) The company claims to have investigated complaints, but has failed to provided procedure or written documentation of said investigation. If a consumer is stating inaccurate information it is apparent TransUnion is not doing their due diligence and looking into the matter. For example I provided proof that a debt was sold by a creditor, which means that is income and should not be furnished on my report as per the IRS. However, rather than remove this information, the company updates it. 
I am unsure if TransUnion is above the law and is able to report inaccurate information, but I would like this matter to be further investigated

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX 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 to be removed/updated. 

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.

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!

I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

Our bank, Capital One, has lost all our biller data, cancelled all payments to our billers. We are unable to see or access our account transaction history, so we do not know what our balance is, or was. We have bills that have already gone unpaid, and others that will be unpaid. Our county water, real estate, our car insurance, and other bills have gone unpaid - we wouldn't have known this if we hadn't logged into the account on XX/XX/XXXX to deposit a small check. 

We called customer service, and our local branch today, and have recordings of both calls. We were told that the bank changed vendors for their bill payment program, and that all data was supposed to have been migrated, but did not for many accounts. They told us that they cancelled all our payments. Cancelled all future payments! Without asking us! Or even alerting us! We would never have known had we not logged on just before the holiday! 

There was no Capital One customer service the following day - XX/XX/XXXX - or for the following XXXX days afterwards. So no customer service from Wednesday to the following Monday. XXXX days during which our payments have gone unpaid but we don't know which, and we can not see or check our account balance, or what is affecting our balance. Everything was automated- even backups were automated. We can not access or see any of this data. 

They have created a " ticket, '' and referred it to their IT department. The customer service representative is not permitted to give his full name, only his employee number. There is no one above him to speak to - his supervisor does not take calls. This rep 's title is " Account Supervisor at Small Business Banking. '' He is not permitted to send us email confirmation of our call. He would not give us a timeframe for when the issue might be resolved, if at all. 

Can you help us?

We would need to call in XX/XX/XXXX to get options. We called in XXXX and were told they approved the deferment. In XX/XX/XXXX we were told by the Mortgage company it would take 45 days to process the paperwork and that our XXXX payment after their processing wouldn't be until XX/XX/XXXX. We requested the paperwork and received it showing no payment due until XX/XX/XXXX. ( See attached ) On XX/XX/XXXX we resumed our payment but then realized we had XXXX late payments appear on our credit reports for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. So we called several times to the Mortgage company to have them correct it. We even filed disputes with the credit reporting agencies and to date these XXXX lates have not been fixed. We have never been late on our mortgage. And the XXXX lates were in deferment while we were waiting on their paperwork as per their instructions. We feel they need to be corrected.
