Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

I am deeply concerned about the blatant disregard for my consumer rights in the handling of my dispute letters submitted to the three major credit bureaus, beginning on XX/XX/2023. It is disheartening to note that all three credit bureaus have not only ignored my letters but also violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to respond within the mandated 30-day period. 

Under the FCRA, consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports. The credit bureaus are legally obligated to investigate these disputes within 30 days and provide a response. By neglecting to adhere to this timeframe, the credit bureaus are in direct violation of the law, undermining my rights as a consumer. 

I want to emphasize the gravity of this situation, as it not only impacts my financial standing but also erodes my confidence in the integrity of the credit reporting system. The inaccurate information on my credit report has far-reaching consequences, affecting my ability to secure loans, obtain favorable interest rates, and even impact my employment opportunities. 

I urge you to take immediate action to rectify this situation. I demand that the credit bureaus promptly investigate my dispute, update every item on my credit report to accurately reflect the status as " paid as agreed, never late, '' and provide me with a written confirmation of the corrections made. I am well aware of my rights under the FCRA, and I am prepared to take further legal action if necessary to ensure my rights are upheld. 

I expect a timely response and resolution to this matter, as it is not only my right as a consumer but also a matter of upholding the laws designed to protect consumers like myself. Your cooperation in this regard is essential, and I anticipate your swift action to rectify these violations and provide the accurate credit reporting I am entitled to under the law.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, this creditor has violated my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As a consumer, I believe that your organization has violated my rights as stipulated in the FCRA, specifically under 15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) Section 2 and 15 USC 166b.

15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) Section 2 of the FCRA outlines the permissible purposes for obtaining a consumer report, restricting access to an individual 's credit report to those with a legitimate and lawful reason. This provision is in place to ensure that sensitive credit information is only accessible to entities with a valid need, such as creditors, employers, insurers, and landlords. Any unauthorized access or use of my credit report may be deemed a violation of this provision.

15 USC 166b is a significant part of the FCRA and sets out requirements for obtaining and using consumer reports for employment purposes. This section aims to protect the rights of consumers, particularly when it comes to their employment opportunities. It obligates employers to adhere to specific guidelines when requesting and using consumer reports for employment screening purposes. Violations of these guidelines can result in a breach of a consumer 's rights. 

I believe that your organization has infringed upon these provisions of the FCRA by treating a payment as late. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter thoroughly, rectify any errors, and take the necessary corrective actions to ensure compliance with the FCRA. It is vital to protect consumer rights and maintain the integrity of the credit reporting system. 

Please provide a written response within 30 days of receiving this letter, explaining the steps you have taken to address this issue and any remedies or corrective actions you plan to undertake. Additionally, I request that you furnish me with any documentation or information related to this matter.

Failure to address this issue within the stipulated timeframe may compel me to take legal action to protect my rights under the FCRA. I hope it does not come to that, and I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and in accordance with the law.

I look forward to your prompt response and a satisfactory resolution to this issue.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (MI)

The company responded to my original complaint stating that they had misapplied 3 payments from the following dates : the XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  payment- which was sent from my bank on XX/XX/XXXX, received by Comenity on XXXX, and cashed on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  ; the XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  payment- which was sent from my bank on XX/XX/XXXX, received by Comenity on XXXX and cashed XX/XX/XXXX ; and the XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  payment which was sent on XXXX, received by Comenity on XXXX, and cashed on XX/XX/XXXX. I have been in dispute about these missing payments for the past several months which they failed to investigate or resolve until I contacted the CFPB to file a complaint. They have finally applied the payments, but they are still refusing to correct fees associated with their error or prove that my account should have been reported to the credit bureau. Now, I have received yet another letter from them stating that they have investigated my account and they did not find an error. So they are still trying to negate the issue, turning it back on me and ending the paper trail with me being in the wrong. There is absolutely no regard for the distress that their error has caused me, they are just trying to cover themselves.
