I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding their failure to adequately investigate my dispute and their issuance of a stall letter in response to my legitimate concerns about certain accounts and inquiries listed on my credit report. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute to TransUnion regarding several accounts and inquiries appearing on my credit report that I believe are inaccurate. These discrepancies include. I provided detailed explanations and Summary of Accounts being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Summary of Inquiries being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX And supporting documentation to substantiate my claims and requested a thorough investigation into these matters. 

However, instead of conducting a proper investigation into my dispute, TransUnion sent me a stall letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, which merely acknowledged receipt of my dispute without providing any meaningful resolution or explanation. This stall letter failed to address the specific issues raised in my dispute and did not offer any timeline for completion of the investigation. 

TransUnion 's failure to investigate my dispute in a timely and thorough manner has caused me significant distress and frustration. As a consumer, I have the right to accurate and up-to-date credit information, and TransUnion 's refusal to XXXX my concerns violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I hereby request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau intervene in this matter and compel TransUnion to conduct a proper investigation into my dispute. Additionally, I request that TransUnion provide me with a written explanation of the results of their investigation and take appropriate action to correct any inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a prompt resolution of this complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am writing to bring to your attention a distressing issue concerning my IKEA credit card, which is managed by Comenity Capital Bank. I applied for the credit card online, providing accurate information, but despite being approved, I never received any communication, confirmation, or the essential disclosures related to the credit card agreement. This lack of communication left me in the dark about the terms and conditions, putting me at a disadvantage as a consumer. 

Nonetheless, I was able to make some purchases at IKEA in XXXX using a temporary card, which the IKEA representatives provided. This temporary card allowed me to make the necessary transactions, but my worries grew when I received the actual credit card through the mail and was unable to activate it. When I attempted to make a purchase, the card was declined, leaving me puzzled and concerned. 

Determined to resolve the issue, I contacted IKEA 's customer service, hoping they could provide some clarity. Unfortunately, they were unable to locate my account in their system, and they advised me to wait for a statement, which I have never received. This confusing response left me feeling frustrated and anxious about the status of my account. 

To my shock, I recently discovered that there is a derogatory entry on my credit report, stating that I haven't made any payments. This damaging entry has caused my credit score to plummet by a staggering XXXX points, severely affecting my overall financial well-being. It is incredibly disheartening to see my credit suffer when I have made sincere efforts to resolve the issue, but my attempts have been met with frustration and dismissal. 

Despite making multiple calls to seek assistance, I am confronted with the same frustrating outcome - nobody can locate my account, making it impossible for me to rectify the issue or make any payments towards the credit card. This has placed me in a helpless situation where I am unable to address the problem, leading to an unjust and detrimental impact on my credit history. 

I am in the process of purchasing a house, and this erroneous credit report entry is causing significant hurdles in securing a mortgage and achieving my long-standing dream. This situation is incredibly distressing, as it is not a result of any negligence on my part, but rather a failure on the part of the credit card company to properly handle my application and account.
