Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MI)

To whom it may concern, On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. 
I further remind you that, as in XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX - Dist. Court, ( CD California XXXX ) ; you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of discharged accounts. 
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or another instrument bearing my signature. 
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt.

I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in XXXX XXXX Trans Union Corp., XXXX. XXXX ( C.D.Cal. XXXX XXXX ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CA)

My loan was a XXXX XXXX loan and was a 10 year interest only. I have been trying to modify since this loan was serviced by Aurora. It was then transferred to Nationstar. So I have been trying since 2011. They have now added the principle and the amount is too high for me to afford and the last denial stated I was denied because I was current with my loan and that I have sufficient income and assets. This is far from the truth. They added almost a XXXX to my payment to include this as principle. So now my payment is like XXXX. My take home pay is XXXX, The money I have in the bank is what I owe now that I am behind since XXXX and I have been saving so I can make at least XXXX payment. If I was modified at the time or any time prior to adding the principal I would not have fallen behind. If you look at my payment history, I have fallen behind and shows that I have been struggling for awhile to keep my payments. I even got help from Keep Your Home California with the reinstatement but NO modification. I am not asking for a free home but I just want something I can afford. My wife takes home about XXXX and we have XXXX child XXXX years old. This is our community and where my son grew up. I need your assistance with XXXX XXXX and Nationstar. The only assets I have is in a retirement account and they are using that against me. What will I do when I do retire?
