" 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 each account listed without my expressed written consent.

Subject : XXXX XXXX Transunion for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally file a complaint against Transunion regarding their handling of my " Request for Reinvestigation and Detailed Description of Verification Methods. '' On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a comprehensive request to Transunion to reinvestigate inaccuracies on my credit report and to provide a detailed description of the verification methods used. However, XXXX rejected my request, stating that proper identification was not provided. 
I strongly believe that this rejection is unwarranted and constitutes a procedural failure on the part of XXXX. Enclosed with my original request were the following documents : XXXX. A signed and dated dispute letter outlining the inaccuracies on my credit report. 
XXXX. Copies of my credit reports from TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX highlighting the disputed items. 
XXXX. A copy of my government-issued identification ( driver 's license ).

XXXX. Any additional supporting documents substantiating my claims. 
I have thoroughly reviewed Transunions guidelines for submitting disputes and ensured that all required documentation was included. The claim that proper identification was not provided is incorrect and has resulted in an unnecessary delay in resolving my credit report inaccuracies. 
Violations of Law I believe that Transunion 's rejection of my request and the subsequent delay violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically : XXXX. 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ) : This section requires that credit reporting agencies conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information.

Shortly after I discovered the fraud attached to my social security number, I sent the credit bureau a detail letter, telling them the information was fraud, requesting that they remove/block the fraudulent information from reporting and included 9 attachments proving my identity and that the items listed were fraud. I filed an identity theft report, which I provided the bureau a copy, ( Report number XXXX ) and submitted reports to the federal trade commission, ( report number XXXX and XXXX ). Despite all the evidence, the bureau refused to block/remove the items, in direct violation of FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), which states that " a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt by such agency. '' I submitted the request and all evidence in XXXX this year. As evidenced in the attachment, yet it is still reflecting on my credit today. 
The credit bureau has made no effort to protect me and my information. They have sent no supporting documents proving the alleged debt. The only thing I received was saying they " did an investigation. '' Which is impossible, because had they truly investigated, they would have found the accounts are not under my legal name, literal public records ( listed with the state ) show otherwise and a XXXX XXXX search would show every insurance I have ever had. Not to mention, my credit is flawless. No late payments, nothing overdue in my life.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (VA)

Hi! I traveled to XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX and was planning on renting a car from XXXX XXXX XXXX I went to the office to rent, but the cost came out to {$300.00} vs the {$100.00} XXXX expected to pay, so I did not go through with this purchase. I rented a car with a different company instead. However, I had already handed over my credit card and XXXX had all my information because I booked a reservation online. 

XXXX stole my credit card information to pay for a rental car even though I did not authorize this transaction. I never received a rental car from this company. However, they charged my card despite this. They used my personal information to validate this charge, but this was all fraudulent. 

I have never disputed a credit card charge in my life. I have never opened a fraud case before. I strongly believe against this charge because I never received a rental car from this company. They forged my signature and created a fake receipt of a rental car. 

I opened a dispute with Chase to report this fraud, but Chase has refused to listen to me despite XXXX attempts to explain the situation. They say they have proof that the charge is valid, but have not given me any proof except the fake receipt and forged signature. I have explained the situation to them and they do not talk to me directly. This is why I am filing this report. Thank you very much. I am an extremely honest person and truly can not stand by this company scamming people in such a way!

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after XXXX days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored.
