Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

: In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The List of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. I told XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX to reinvestigate these accounts : Also under 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states I have the right to privacy. Also under 15 USC section 604 a section 2 it also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. 

Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX, opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX {$270.00} Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX, opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX {$390.00} Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX, opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. {$1200.00} Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. {$1200.00} Account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1700.00} However, they stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify accounts that aren't reporting correctly. 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, section 602a ), it is emphasized that consumer reporting agencies must carry out their significant responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a commitment to respecting the consumer 's right to privacy. XXXX, Transunion and XXXX function as consumer reporting agencies, and I, as the consumer, possess the right to ensure that my private information remains undisclosed, as supported by 15 USC 6801. This statute declares the Congress 's policy that financial institutions have an ongoing obligation to safeguard the privacy and confidentiality of their customers ' nonpublic personal information.

The entity providing information to credit agencies, considered a financial institution under this title, is governed by 15 USC 1681, section 604a ( 2 ). This section specifies that consumer reporting agencies may furnish a consumer report only in accordance with the written instructions of the respective consumer. To emphasize, the financial institution and the consumer reporting agencies, XXXX, Transunion and XXXX, lack my consent and written authorization to disclose this information. 

Referencing 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), it is stated that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without providing the consumer with an explanation of how to exercise the nondisclosure option. Unfortunately, the entity providing information to credit agencies failed to inform me of my right to exercise this option. Furthermore these institutions have been given notice of me exercising said option of nondisclosure.

Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) expressly prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in a consumer report without proper authorization. The adverse item being reported without my consent violates this law, as does 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which prohibits furnishing inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies.

Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681e mandates that consumer reporting agencies maintain reasonable procedures to prevent violations and limit the furnishing of consumer reports to specific purposes. XXXX, Transunion and XXXX appear to be falling short in maintaining these reasonable procedures as these accounts have been disputed with each of them multiple times.

Also, 15 U.S. Code 1681c states that Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information : Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.

XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX - This charge-off account shows a {$380.00} balance. The balance should not be reported after it was a charge-off. Also, the dates last activity is shown differently on the report ; Transunion shows XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX claims it was XX/XX/XXXX, while XXXX shows XX/XX/XXXX. This is clearly inaccurate. As per 15 U.S. Code 1681e, consumer reporting agencies are required to take reasonable measures to ensure the highest level of accuracy possible when preparing consumer reports. This means you must employ proper procedures to minimize errors and ensure that the information pertaining to the individual in the report is as accurate as possible.

Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Unauthorized Reporting on My Consumer Report Dear TransUnion Consumer Relations, I am writing to formally complain about the inaccurate reporting of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on my consumer report. As a consumer, I am deeply concerned about the violation of my rights and the breach of privacy associated with these unauthorized entries on my credit report. 

First and foremost, any addition of items to my consumer report requires my explicit written permission, even in cases of permissible purpose. It is crucial to acknowledge that my consent is a mandatory prerequisite for such reporting, especially considering that this information constitutes my non-public personal information, which should be safeguarded at all costs. 

None of the four accounts mentioned above have my explicit written consent, indicating a severe breach of privacy and potential identity fraud. This is not only an infringement on my rights but also a violation of South Carolina law, particularly under the South Carolina Code of Laws : 1. Section 37-20-110 : Prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices in consumer transactions.

2. Section 37-20-160 : Regulates the accuracy of consumer credit reports and consumer reporting agencies. 

I urge TransUnion to promptly investigate this matter, rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report, and cease the reporting of unauthorized information. Failure to do so may result in legal action to protect my rights and seek appropriate remedies under the specified South Carolina laws.

Furthermore, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : 1. Section 1681e mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of reported information. 
2. Section 1681b outlines the permissible purposes for accessing consumer reports, and the lack of my written consent for the mentioned accounts constitutes a violation.

3. Section 1681i entitles consumers to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports, and I hereby dispute the unauthorized entries mentioned. 

I expect TransUnion to adhere to both South Carolina laws and the Fair Credit Reporting Act, taking immediate action to rectify this situation in compliance with federal and state law. 

Please provide a detailed response within 30 days, outlining the steps taken to address this issue. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Company: Southern Oregon Credit Service, Inc. (OR)

I have made a previous complaint regarding the same company, Southern Oregon Credit Service , Inc . The first time I contacted you was on a debt from XXXX. The original debt was a little over {$1000.00}. Because they sat on this debt for 18 years they claim it accrued to over {$5000.00}. I just finished paying this company {$5000.00} and now they are claiming I owe {$700.00}. This amount is also from XXXX. It is my understanding that after 6 years a company can not collect on an old debt yet this company is allowed to repeatedly. I was attempting to file a complaint with the FTC and it redirected me here. I was not pleased with the outcome last time I filed a complaint with your agency against this debt collector. Your advice last time, consult an attorney. I checked into filing bankruptcy and it costs {$1600.00}, money I don't have. I live in an RV and pay {$400.00} for rent, water and electricity. I get social security and work part time yet I am not able to make it due to this company continuously garnishing my wages. I've contacted XXXX XXXX 's office, Attorney General XXXX. This can not continue, I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I will not work to pay off a debt this company could have contacted me prior to XX/XX/XXXX. This debt has not shown up on any of my credit reports. Laws need to change regarding this issue and debt XXXX should not be allowed to collect a debt that is XXXX XXXX XXXX. Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated Sincerely, XXXX XXXX.

XXXX- Is reporting XXXX XXXX on my acct. I've demanded them to remove it because it's a business account that was never created by me, which also lead to other accounts in my name and on my Bureau, that aren't mine. Upon contacting XXXX XXXX they've stated, I needed to simply contact the 3 reporting Bureau 's and it would be deleted. However the Bureau says they won't remove this information. I've been fired from my career over this information being on my credit and denied home loans because it dropped my score by XXXX points. Plus the Bureau have my social first number as XXXX, which alerts lenders of my race based on the first number being a XXXX or XXXX, so I've been told by a Bureau expert. 
I need these items removed from my report. 

Thank you

**This is not a duplicate complaint** This is a new complaint with the same company** I have an account with a XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. The account is set up with autopay to avoid worrying about the monthly payments. Yesterday, I noticed the autopay hadn't been charged for a long time and decided to log into the XXXX account to make sure the autopay was still set up. The autopay is still set up, and everything looks fine ; I noticed a balance of {$280.00}, so I decided to program the payment manually. Later that day, XX/XX/, I received a notification from my credit report stating that the XXXX XXXX  reported late payments on my credit. Even though they have a bank account set up as autopay, they never contacted me via phone, mail, or email to inform me if it is any issues relating to the autopayment. Now, my credit report shows one late payment from a XXXX XXXX, which affects me as a consumer for my future purchases. I have tried to call multiple times since yesterday and chat with customer service, but there is no answer.

I was and I still am a victim of Hurricane Michael. it happened XX/XX/2018. 5 months later, my home is still deteriorating due to roof damage, because Suntrust Mortgage has my insurance money in an escrow account. I and my contractors have filled out the required forms several times. I have faxed all forms 3 times, and my insurance co. emailed them once. Each time, Suntrust keeps adding on requirements. In the meantime, I literally have rain water pouring through my roof. have replaced tarps 4 times already. Ceilings, walls, and floors are ruined, and water pours in garage on my suv. I need MY money to begin repairs!!! There is mold growing in my attic, and thru my ceilings. My pups and I are getting sicker, and sicker. I am prepared to hire an attorney to sue them for much more than the amount in escrow.
