While reviewing my credit report, i found a decent amount of inquiries that I have never authorized to occur, I understand that soft inquiries do not affect my credit report, however by allowing third parties and other companies to gain access to my personal information as well as my private information ( name, address, phone number place of employment etc ) it puts me at considerable risk to potential personal/financial harm or fraud, and is also a violation of my right to privacy. 

There was also no permissible purpose for these inquiries, in order to obtain a consumer report on an individual you need permissible purpose under 15 USC 1681b, which is either a court order, or a written request from the consumer authorizing an inquiry, I would like to request from transunion the court order or written instruction that was given to any of the below listed companies that authorizes them to make an inquiry into my report.

On XXXX Transunion I mailed Transunion a dispute to investigate and determine the completeness an or accuracy of some accounts reporting on my consumer file. Instead of Transunion adhering to 15 USC 1681ia1a ( g ) Transunion sent a letter file # XXXX dated XXXX denying my request due to accusations of utilizing a 3rd party to dispute account information while adding proof of authorization must be given. Without having or providing proof and no existing laws or statues currently supporting Transunion 's reasoning not to comply with dispute request, this simply is wilful noncompliance and violates 15 USC 1681 ( n ) and must be held accountable for.

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

My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXXXXXX 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 in 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 XXXX 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 XXXX 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 am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

XXXX XXXX, I have another concern that can be added to the pending questions and research. I discovered on the Recovery Modification section, Additions to Principal Balance shows a debt balance of {$13000.00} ; however, the most recent mortgage statement dated XX/XX/2023 shows an escrow credit of - {$13000.00}. Why was this amount added as a balance due instead of a credit? It contradicts the Recovery Modification as it shows this amount as owed, but on the statement, it is a credit. Why was the escrow amount added as a balance due to the unpaid principal balance of {$150000.00}, causing the New Modified Unpaid Principal Balance to increase to {$170000.00}?

Existing Unpaid Principal Balance {$150000.00} Additions to Principal Balance Unpaid Accrued {$7200.00} Mortgagee Advanced for Escrow Items {$13000.00} Subtractions to Reduce Principal Balance : New Modified unpaid principal balance {$170000.00} Is the amount in question showing as a debit, the money I owe, or credit money owed to me? The Recover Modification shows this amount as owed, and the mortgage statement shows a credit. I will also add this concern along with the backup to CFPB for compliance purposes.

I have diligently followed all the necessary procedures in disputing this account. I've contacted the bank, and they assured me the issue was resolved. Law enforcement has been involved, and I've provided a FTC report, which they confirmed as valid. Furthermore, XXXX and XXXX have complied with legal requirements and removed the account. However, Transunion seems to be presenting obstacles, claiming I haven't completed all the necessary steps. Despite repeatedly submitting my claim to Transunion for years now, I remain stuck. Each time, I receive a dismissive response, alleging that the documents I've provided are inadequate. It appears Transunion is failing to fulfill its legal obligation to process the identity theft report even though the bank already removed the account from the other bureaus. I want to emphasize that I've reported the identity theft to a law enforcement agency, specifically FTC, a federal entity. I seek a resolution to this matter that adheres to proper procedures. The distress caused by this identity theft, coupled with the inability to access my credit, is severely impacting both my personal and professional life.

*IMPORTANT* As I have stated NUMEROUS times, I have an external XXXX  wallet to withdraw my funds to. So why are my tickets here being closed out as if I am trying to withdraw to my bank? 

Coinbase has disabled my ability to withdraw my money. 

Coinbase has decided to freeze my account and will not allow me to withdraw my funds from the " vault '' on their website. I got most of my money except for the XXXX XXXX from it, which is a few grand, they will not release. I opened a complaint a couple of months ago and coinbase said nothing is wrong with the account, and that i can withdraw it anytime, and closed the complaint, WHICH IS NOT TRUE.

Whenever trying to withdraw them to another XXXX  address, it freezes on " Loading '', all after typing the XXXX  XXXX code and the receiving address. No information was requested as coinbase stated, instead they gave just a couple day window to withdraw and I was not home at the time. That is unrealistic. PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE. Thank you
