Company: Lendmark Financial Services (SC)

I was advised to write to you by your customer service department concerning my credit rating with your company. I have enjoyed a credit account with you for many years. During the course of our business association, I have honored and respected my account agreement to the fullest. I appreciate how wonderful your service has always been. 

Unfortunately, I was in a financial dilemma due to job loss. As a result, my payment to you were delayed. Because your account with me is extremely important I managed to borrow the money to cover the late payments. I made sure to fulfill my obligation to ensure that your company suffered no loss. 

I am thankful and appreciative for the years of positive credit history that I have obtained through your company but now the late marks dated on my credit reports are causing me tremendous stress. I am trying to move up to a better paid position at my work, but the negative remarks are hurting my efforts. 

This is where my " Goodwill Request '' comes in. I desperately need this promotion and I would be extremely appreciative if you would please complete a UDF - Universal Data Form and send it to the credit bureaus to reflect paid on time " never late ''. 

The credit bureaus have advised me that they will report anything as instructed to by you, but they need to have that instruction in writing. I will place my account on auto pay and promise to make all payments on time in the future. 

I beg that you may help me and take into consideration how good of a customer I have been and how long I have had an account with you. My family very much needs this to pay for medical care that we desperately need. I hope you can find it in your heart to help us.

I received a notice today in the mail ( XX/XX/2024 ) Showing on the letter account ended in XXXX ( which isn't even my last 4 numbers under my credit card ). They have this letter dated XXXX and without my knowledge, they closed my account without my consent to do so, as I do not want this account closed. I have been a great customer for many years with this company, always paying my bill in full when I used it. The last time I used it was at the end of XXXX. 

I tried to contact the company ( Commenity Bank for Victoria Secret Card ), and it never gave me the option to speak to anyone about my account, it stated they closed it and can not give me any information and the call drops.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX)

Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

I received your response that you wont process my request to dispute inaccurate information because you believe it didnt come directly from me or are claiming that Im working with a third party or credit clinic. Lets get the record straight!!! Im the one whos disputing this information. The information Im disputing is INCORRECT & I NEED THIS MATTER HANDLED IMMEDIATELY. I do not recognize the information listed below and request that you investigate the source of these accounts and ascertain that the DATA FURNISHER had a permissible purpose, and is able to verify my complete file information including full name, address, date of birth, and SSN #. I've talked to the bank & they've agreed to remove the accounts. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not block the accounts because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the FTC report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the FTC report ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy... 

Accounts : XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/2021 Balance {$17000.00} This is not verified. I contacted the furnisher and they have refused to provide any documentation proving the claim or the accuracy. This remains inaccurate, incomplete and not verified. You are REQUIRED to delete this immediately according to FCRA Sect. 611. Please ensure this account is removed within 5 days!

XXXX claimed to removed the inaccurate inquiries on my report after cfpb complaint XXXX and multiple others. This is a follow up so that they can finish removing the rest of the items Over the last 2 months i have been disputing inaccurate inquiries on my credit report which this company has took over 30 days and most times not even responded to my disputes. They are currently the FCRA as well as many of my consumer right. Firstly they are violating 15 usc 1681 b- ( a ) In general - ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I've never gave them written instruction to furnish my report in any way. They have also not completed accurate investigations and accurately verified the items on my report. Ive submitted many FTC identity theft affidavits which they have not responded to. This negative and inaccurate information on my report is creating false and deceptive representations of me as i try to apply for new credit which is also a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692j ( a ).

Nothing has been done on these accounts. There are numerous violations showing on my report. There are accounts that XXXX stated, were deleted, after their investigation. However, they are still showing on my report well over a month after they completed their so-called investigation. Also there have been 21 accounts added by XXXX, after their investigation, that were not reported previously. These are accounts that are several years old, that the other two were reporting already. I have called all three Bureaus to dispute these issues and all I am told is that I basically have no control over what is done because they can report whatever they want. They would not tell me who did my investigation and I want all the information pertaining to the investigation they claim to have performed. I want the name of my investigator, their role in the company, who they spoke to, and if they contacted everyone that they are legally required to contact according to the FCRA. I will be notifying the Attorney General over this and I will be seeking litigation if nothing changes. How can my credit report be accurate if all three Bureaus are reporting something different? I have documented all the violations over the last 5 months, and I am prepared to take things to the next step legally to make sure that all the information on my credit report is accurate.

Upon reviewing my Consumer Reports, I have identified instances of late payments recorded on an account for which I have always made timely payments. It is of utmost importance that Consumer Reporting Agencies fulfill their obligation to accurately report consumer information to the best of their abilities. I would like to draw your attention to the specific account in question : XXXX with the associated account number XXXX I kindly request a comprehensive investigation into this matter and kindly ask for supporting evidence in the form of statements that substantiate the reported lateness of these payments. In the event that it is not feasible to provide such evidence, I firmly demand that these payments be corrected and updated to accurately reflect their true status as on-time payments. I want to emphasize that I have consistently made timely payments and it is crucial that this information be faithfully represented. 

Thank you for your prompt attention and prompt resolution of this issue.

I have already sent a letter to XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX Credit Bureaus on XX/XX/XXXX, requesting verification and deletion of fraudulent information found on my credit file. After reviewing an updated copy of my credit report, I noticed that most of the fraudulent items are still being reported. Despite waiting for a response from the credit bureaus, I have not received anything. The three Credit Bureaus have failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, specifically 15 USC sections 1681i, within the legally mandated timeframe. Their continued reporting of unconfirmed information, despite my attempts to address the issue directly with the creditor, can be considered willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. I kindly request the complete removal of the following items from my Credit Reports : XXXX  XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$3000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$6300.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$3000.00} XXXX XXXX  XXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$7900.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XXXX XXXX, XXXX Balance {$4000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date opened XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Balance {$11000.00}

I have made several attempts to resolve things with Equifax but they continue to willingly and knowingly damage my livelihood and reputation with unlawful and fraudulent reporting on my consumer report. This is my last attempt to settle my issue with them before filing a civil suit in my local magistrate court against their registered agent Equifax. All 3 credit bureaus are not on the same page about a late payment that's on my consumer report and now i'm paying higher interest rates on my mortgage.

Recently, I conducted an investigation on my credit report, and let me tell you, it really took a toll on me. I felt incredibly depressed upon discovering numerous items that were unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable. It was alarming to see that your agency had not ensured the information was reported correctly. 

You see, according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it's crucial for everything on my credit report to be 100 % accurate. And guess what? These accounts I found are in direct violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) since they are not reporting information that is 100 % accurate. This is something that needs to be addressed and rectified as soon as possible.
