Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

In XXXX or XXXX, a loan was taken out fraudulently using my personal information. When I became aware of this fraudulent loan I immediately notified money lion and made them aware of the situation however upon doing so I have not been able to rectify the situation even though they have previously received from me FTC reports police reports FBI reports as well as other documentation showing that I was the victim of identity theft. Also the loan was deposited into a fraudulent bank account with XXXX this account has subsequently been closed because it was determined that this account was in fact opened fraudulently. Unfortunately I have not been able to get money lion to take this off my credit report and thus it is causing a negative tremendous impact on my credit score. Also I have provided them information showing them that my information was bought and sold on the dark web over XXXX times of which included my email address password to my email address along with other various accounts along with the passwords so the individuals that were responsible for this had access to my personal information along with my email address and other information allowing them to open this account however I'm still not able to remove it because XXXX refuses to accept any documentation by not providing a number a fax a link or any other type information to which I can send this information to them. I have attempted several times over and over to get this removed and to get some type of cooperation from moneylion however all of it has been done to no avail

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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

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!

The response from the credit reporting agencies indicates that the accounts were verified and updated. However, my credit report continues to show several inaccuracies. 

According to 15 U.S.C 1681i ( 7 ) regarding the Method of Verification, I am entitled to a clear explanation of the verification process your agency utilized. I am requesting a comprehensive account of each step taken to confirm the accuracy of these disputed items. 

Even with these investigations, my credit report still displays errors. I request the immediate removal of these inaccuracies from my report.

We have a Chase Visa freedom card. We noticed a series of {$10.00} fees that were appearing on our statement without explanation. When we contacted the credit card company, we were told that these were cash advance fees, even though we were not asking for cash advances. The representative claimed that when the credit card was used with an app called XXXX, that is how it was coded in the system. She said this was disclosed on XXXX website. we asked her to identify where, on XXXX website this was disclosed, and she then pretended to know, and when we pressed her was unable to find it. She was an account supervisor in the customer service department at Chase from their Missouri office, and her name was XXXX. When we confronted her with the fact that she had misrepresented the disclosure, and that she knew where it was, she hung up the phone on us. The total amount of fees is {$170.00}. The call took place on XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX XXXX ET, from our phone number XXXX.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (VA)

I was travelling from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX DC via XXXX where I had a layover of some XXXX hours on XX/XX/XXXX. 2024. My flight from XXXX took off early in the morning of XX/XX/year>. When arrived in DC i got transection alerts from Bank of America which had happened while I was on flight. In total three transections ( {$450.00}, {$71.00} and {$37.00} ) had taken place fraudulently and the fourth one was an order placed through online store. I immediately contacted the bank and informed them about the illegal use of my card and reported it lost. The representative of the Fraud Investigation department of bank closed my card and assured me that they remove the charges in a few days. They also said that they will do an investigation of the fraud. 
The charges were duly removed from credit card only to appear again three days ago. The bank also sent a letter through the banking app saying that my claims are invalid and that I must pay the amount. 
I am shocked that the bank has seemingly concluded that I have falsely claimed the amounts. The bank is seeking an easy way out here and thinks it should make me pay for this. If these transections are not fraud than why did the bank cancel the fourth transection that happened along with the three illegal ones? It knows that fraud was committed using my stolen credit card. If I wanted to put a claim falsely, why did I not put it on other transections and only those that happened while I was on flight to XXXX  DC? 
I am a preferred customer with the same bank and I being victimized. I would sincerely request your intervention to protect my interest in this case. 
faithfully yours, XXXX XXXX

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (OH)

I moved out of apartment on XX/XX/XXXX, due to the apartment not being able to get XXXX roaches removed from my apartment after a few months of complaining. I'm allergic to them and was getting really sick. On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested an invoice from the XXXX XXXX, but they were under a different management, and I was given a contact to reach but it was only by email you could reach them. They did send me an invoice, but after reviewing the invoice, I noticed some information was incorrect. They were charging me extra for floor patching ( which I have pictures of the carpet looking better than when I moved in ), gas reimbursement charges ( gas was in my name, so how do I owe them? ), rent after I had already moved out for the following month, and trip service charges. I tried to reach back out to them to get this resolved but got no reply back. I do not feel like I should have this on my credit report when they are trying to add charges and my deposit should have covered the realistic amounts, if any. The place was left better than when moved in, other than the roach infestation the surrounding tenants had, and apartment complex was not fixing.
