Consumer complaint received 2024-10-22
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

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 information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (PA)

Dear TransUnion, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of the information reported on my credit report regarding an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The account number ends in XXXX, and it was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, and closed on XX/XX/XXXX. Below are specific inaccuracies I have identified that require correction : Discrepancy in Balance and Payments : The account shows a balance of {$600.00}, but there are records of payments made, including a {$51.00} payment in XX/XX/XXXX and other scheduled payments between XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I request that you investigate how these payments were applied and correct the balance accordingly. 

Missing Payment History : The account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX, yet there is no payment history reported between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 
Inaccurate Delinquency Reporting : The account reflects a XXXX delinquency in XX/XX/XXXX, but the account was closed in XX/XX/XXXX. It is unclear whether the delinquency dates have been accurately reported. 
Inconsistent XXXX XXXX XXXX : The past due amount is listed as {$600.00} for many months despite showing earlier payment activity. I request verification of the past due balance, as it seems inconsistent with the accounts payment history. 
Unclear Remarks and Rating : The remarks section shows " PRL '' ( Paid/Revolving Limit ), but the account status remains " Charged Off. '' The rating also alternates between " C/O '' ( XXXX ) and " X '' ( XXXX XXXX ), which seems inconsistent. 

Account Can not Be Charged Off Multiple Times : According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), an account can only be charged off once. However, this account reflects multiple charge-offs over several months ( shown as " C/O '' in the rating history ). A charge-off should represent a single event, not multiple occurrences. I request an immediate investigation of these repetitive charge-off notations, as they violate the proper reporting guidelines. 
Please investigate these discrepancies and remove the inaccurate information from my credit report. If the information is verified as accurate, please provide me with the documentation used to verify the charge-off, delinquency, and balance. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your prompt investigation and resolution. Please respond within the XXXX period as required by law.

Dear TransUnion, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of the information reported on my credit report regarding an account with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  The account number ends in XXXX, and it was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, and closed on XX/XX/XXXX. Below are specific inaccuracies I have identified that require correction : Inconsistent Charge-Off Balance & Payments : The original charge-off balance was listed as {$460.00}, yet the current balance is {$430.00}, and there is a {$25.00} payment reported in XX/XX/XXXX. Despite this, the XXXX XXXX shows {$0.00} for most months. 

Inaccurate Delinquency Reporting : The account was closed in XX/XX/XXXX, yet there are reported delinquencies of 120 days in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. This is inaccurate, as new delinquencies should not have been reported after the account was closed. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX : The account still reflects a past due amount of {$430.00}, despite being marked as charged off. Closed/Charged off accounts can not have a past due balance Inconsistent Account Rating : Several months are marked with an " XXXX XXXX  under the Rating, but others reflect " C/O '' ( Charge-Off ) status. This inconsistency raises concerns about how the accounts charge-off is being reported. I request that the account history be reviewed and corrected for consistency. 
Please investigate these discrepancies and remove the inaccurate information from my credit report. If the information is verified as accurate, please provide me with the documentation used to verify the charge-off, delinquency, and balance. 

I look forward to your prompt investigation and resolution of these issues. Please respond within the XXXX period as required by law.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX CFPB ) delete the fraudulent hard inquiries from my TransUnion credit report. As a victim of identity theft, I have been wrongfully targeted by several banks and financial institutions, resulting in multiple unauthorized credit inquiries on my credit report. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX These inquiries have caused undue stress and anxiety, as I have never had any dealings with these institutions and have no knowledge of the nature or purpose of these inquiries. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate or fraudulent information on their credit reports. In this case, I am disputing the hard inquiries made by these financial institutions, which were not authorized by me, and were the result of identity theft. 

I have taken the necessary steps to protect my personal information and have reported the identity theft to the appropriate authorities. I have also contacted the credit reporting agencies and placed a fraud alert on my credit report. However, despite these efforts, these unauthorized inquiries have remained on my credit report and have affected my credit score. 

I urge the CFPB to investigate this matter and take the necessary steps to remove these fraudulent inquiries from my credit report. I am confident that the evidence will show that these inquiries were made without my knowledge or consent and that I have been a victim of identity theft. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. 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.

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 recently submitted a letter regarding the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report, but it's now been over 30 days, and I haven't received any response. This lack of action is really concerning. According to Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), youre required to investigate disputed items within 30 days, and if you don't, those items must be removed from my report.

Since it's been more than 30 days, I expect my credit report to be updated immediately, reflecting the removal of the disputed accounts. If this isn't resolved quickly, Ill have no choice but to consider legal action, as this ongoing delay has caused me considerable stress. 

Additionally, I was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which makes me even more worried about how my personal information is being handled.
