Consumer complaint received 2024-08-04
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (AR)

I am writing to formally dispute significant discrepancies in the reporting of my XXXX account ( # XXXX ) across all three major credit bureaus : XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion. The inconsistencies in the reported information have led to a negative impact on my credit profile, including an unjustified 30-day late payment. These inaccuracies not only misrepresent my financial behavior but also violate several provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I request the immediate removal of this account from my credit reports and compensation for the potential damages caused by these reporting errors. Below, I outline the specific discrepancies and the relevant FCRA provisions that support my claim. 

Discrepancies Identified 1. Date Opened : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. Balance : XXXX : {$79.00} XXXX : {$55.00} TransUnion : {$55.00} XXXX. Last Report Date : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. Date Last Active : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. Date of Last Payment : XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX Issues and Impact The discrepancies listed above are not minor clerical errors but significant inaccuracies that reflect a lack of diligence in the reporting process. The differences in the Date Opened, Balance, Last Report Date, Date Last Active, and Date of Last Payment create an unclear and misleading picture of my creditworthiness. Moreover, these discrepancies have resulted in a reported 30-day late payment, which I firmly believe is due to these reporting errors. This incorrect late payment has unfairly damaged my credit score and financial reputation.
