Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

My name is XXXX XXXX, Around XXXX of XXXX I discovered a number of accounts on my credit report that turned out to be fraud and were opened online and in person in several banks/credit unions and department stores without my knowledge causing my credit rating to sink. I started to contact all institutions one by one and submitting documents to explain the situation including police and identity theft reports from government agencies. Most fraud departments were very helpful and resolved the matter within 30 days. I am now in the XXXX month with a number of complaints and correspondence with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX without any results. Firstly, they took over 4 months to respond to a number of emails/mails and phone messages. A so called " fraud specialist '' named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX finally took my call and said they were backed up and apologized for delaying my requests to view my case and asked me at this point to re-send my police report.. I did once again and after several months of trying to get ahold of him another member named XXXX XXXX in management ) took my call and essentially told me that I myself was my identity thief.. Yes, she said my voice sounded like the person opening the accounts, she also told me I was on video opening this account in their bank.. I've never been in this bank. She then tried to justify her claims by asking me for my personal information i.e. address/phone/email/dob, and of course everything matched. I told her once again that the information probably matches because my identity was comprised including my email, but she wasn't listening. She asked me what the names of my parents were and claimed that matched as well. Now I'm no expert, but if my information was utilized by a thief it is obvious that the same information is going to be used to open whatever accounts the suspects were looking to establish. In conclusion I am asking for help, since I wasn't able to resolve the matter with this banks own fraud department and found many levels of incompetence, malpractice, false accusations and even discrimination. I felt I was talking to someone who was in fact supposed to help me was asking me if I'm sure I was a victim of identity theft and if that was possibly myself. If anyone knows what its like to go through the mere fact of trying to clear things with financial institutions and then having the very banks fraud department telling me the my email matches the account in question should understand that this department needs new staff and/or is mismanaged.. I will make further reports of this experience to all other agencies registered with state and government and will seek legal counsel if it isn't resolved.

Around the Date of XX/XX/2023. I entered the XXXX XXXX Truist located in XXXX georgia and was greeted by a banker who advised i needed to set an appointment. I asked her about a personal line of credit and she told me that all I needed was to apply and Tax returns were not needed. I specifically asked because I did not have the documents at the time as we had just paid to catch up what was due. We decided it was much easier to go to the Truist at the XXXX Georgia location. We were assisted by a XXXX who was nice but advised that we would in fact need income verification we were hesitant at first because our information has been all over the place.in less than XXXX days we received a letter saying by a certain date the application wpuldnt be valid and so I spent the weekend gathering finnacials and returned the documents back. The documents were returned and we were advised. Our original application wasnt valid and we had to Re-apply we allowed XXXX to Resubmit and we never heard back. We have a valid Georgia ID with our address listed on the item. We have upwards of {$85000.00} in Home Equity. Im not sure why they asked for investable assets but needless to say we received a hard inquiry. We never heard a response as to why we were not approved and decided to go with a different institution ( XXXX XXXX ) for a business line of credit. I currently need to replace my vehicle for our business and I now have a Hard inquiry on my credit profile that negatively will effect the purchase of a new vehicle for the next XXXX  years.

My chief complaint is the inaccurate reporting of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX bankruptcy on my consumer credit report. The year that it is reporting is outdated ( XXXX ) the other bankruptcy is from XXXX ( I changed my mind about proceeding ). I have contacted XXXX XXXX and kindly ask them to surpress my information from their database because they have been identified as a data furnisher. Also have contacted sage stream to have my information removed, to no avail nothing has been deleted. I even produced a notarized document from the federal court in XXXX Ga that deals with bankruptcies and it clearly states that the court does not have jurisdiction over credit reporting agencies so why are they reporting bankruptcies?
