This is the second complaint Ive made regarding TransUnion and the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) account # XXXX ( account ). Please reference complaint # XXXX to see the first complaint. 

TransUnion is furnishing a fraudulent account to my consumer report. I have contacted this company on several occasions via phone, certified mail and their website. Like stated above, I have also filed a CFPB complaint against them. See response below. 

After careful review, we have determined the information submitted in the portal included a dispute of information appearing on your credit report. TransUnion has processed your request and forwarded a copy of the Investigation Results through US mail. You should expect to receive those results in approximately 7 business days. 

In response to your request, the following actions were taken on your credit file : You disputed the following accounts and/or public records on your credit file. Below includes the results of that investigation. XXXX XXXX XXXX-VERIFIED AS REPORTED This response came on XX/XX/2023. It is now XX/XX/2023, XXXX business days later. I have still not received anything. No method of verification, sources theyve interviewed, documents reviewed, nothing. 

The original contract I had with the original creditor was altered without my permission or knowledge. This makes the account fraudulent. Therefore, TransUnion does not have anything that would verify this account. This company is engaging in unfair and unlawful business practices and needs to be reprimanded.

" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

It is TransUnions duty pursuant to the FCRA to be reporting correct and accurate information on my credit report and file, however they are NOT. XXXX is reporting seven inaccurate late payments for the XXXX account, which does not have an account numbers to reference to. These include one 30 day late payments posted in XX/XX/2018 and three 60 day late payments dated XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018 and XX/XX/2018 and two 90 day late payments dated XX/XX/2018 and XX/XX/2018. These are incorrect and supposed to be reported as PAID AS AGREED. Furthermore, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( I ), a consumer report does NOT contain information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. A transaction constitutes these late payments resulting in TransUnion violating my federally protected consumer rights. To add to this I did NOT give TransUnion written instruction/permission to furnish these in accurate late payments on my consumer report or file, violating 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) it is clear that TransUnion has violated my federally protected consumer rights under the FCRA, and the inaccurate reporting is causing me and my reputation severe harm and discrimination.
