15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency.

Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated ', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. 

Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate. 
C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to CRRG, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards.

Also as stated in the CRRG Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports.

Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards.

You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB XXXX FTC and my Attorney General.

I was in the process of freezing all my credit bureau accounts due to the XXXX XXXX XXXX breech. This process went smoothly thanks to a XXXX account one of my credit cards gave me. XXXX and XXXX were easy to freeze, with online accounts to set up and monitor. Then came XXXX, which I am still quite unable to believe.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (MO)

I applied for a line of credit at XXXX XXXX for services. I only intended to spend around {$400.00} dollars, but the company pre-approved me for {$7000.00} and ended up receiving around {$1500.00} in services. The credit was through XXXX XXXX. When I received my first statement, XXXX tried to collect over {$5300.00} from me. 

It turned out XXXX XXXX submitted charges for services never received for commission purposes. It took months to get my account corrected. I also filed a complaint with the MO Attorney General 's office and the XXXX  because the agreement I signed was NOT for {$5300.00}, but the {$1500.00} I actually spent. That means they copied my signature to another contract ILLEGALLY! After communication between those parties, I was advised that my bill would be corrected. Additionally, they agreed to removing the promotional financing and allow me to pay my bill at my leisure ; as long as I never missed a minimum, required payment. Which I never did. 

When my bill was down at {$300.00}, they tacked on promotional interest based on the initial, fraudulent, $ 5300+ bill! Again, I contacted them alerting them to the error and reminded them of the previous agreement. Instead, they only adjusted the amount of the promo interest to $ 500+. Again, I called to remind them that I was not subject to the promo interest based on the original agreement. They plead NOLO. The paperwork they provided to verify I owed this money was the fraudulent contract showing I owed $ 5000+. 

My portion of the charges are likely paid in full and my min. payments are going towards promo interest I should not be paying. I just want them to honor the original resolution to the shady business they pulled! I guarantee you I am NOT the only one this happened to. I understand that the Manager and the Sales person were fired due to my situation at the XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Hello, Hope all is well. I am emailing you regarding missed payments published on my credit report. Upon final payment to payoff and close the account, we agreed that you would remove the late payments off my credit report. You were aware of my military status and reasons behind the late payments. I am in the process of purchasing a new home for my family and these alerts popped up from my lender. I've reached out with multiple letters disputing what we agreed upon. Yes, you mailed me a final report of each transaction since ownership, but we agreed to remove the late payments if/when I sell the home. Please take my plea into consideration and help a veteran out by allowing him to provide a home for my family.
