Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

This collection agency is violating by rights as per the FCRA, they continue to answer XXXX disputes INCORRECTLY. I can provide ALL of the supporting documentation if needed, as I have given this to transunion and they continue to believe the collection company even though I am providing all the receipts and status of my collection! The intention of me reaching out to CFBP is for my collection to be ACCURATELY reported as PAID IN FULL and status as CLOSED. 

Here is the timeline : On XX/XX/XXXX, I paid a collection in FULL in the amount of {$1000.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). I logged in to XXXX and verified that the collection is displaying " Paid in full '' and " Closed ''. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, The collection was updated in XXXX as Paid and status is Closed ( which is what I expected ). I checked my Transunion report and it was still displaying as status " Open '' and " Unpaid ''. 

Transunion Dispute Attempt # 1 - Dispute Date : XX/XX/XXXX I disputed XXXXXXXX XXXX  as the incorrect amount and status. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response from transunion stating that the account was " verified as accurate ''. Account is listed as " Open '' and " Unpaid '' which is INACCURATE. This dispute was completed on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Transunion Dispute Attempt # 2 - Dispute Date : XX/XX/XXXX I disputed XXXX XXXX as the incorrect amount and status, with RECEIPTS and PROOF showing that the collection in XXXX is PAID and status is CLOSED. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response from transunion stating that the " disputed information updated ''. Account is now listed as status " Open '' and " Paid '' which is INACCURATE. The account should be listed as PAID and status CLOSED just like it is in XXXX and in the XXXX XXXX itself. 

Transunion Dispute Attempt # 3 - Dispute Date : XX/XX/XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX, I decided to CALL transunion and ask them why the status is open when I sent them proof that it should be closed - directly from the debt collector. The agent said that the collection agency didnt update the status so we will need to file ANOTHER dispute. Via this call, I disputed XXXX XXXX  as the incorrect amount and status, AGAIN with RECEIPTS and PROOF showing that the collection in XXXX is PAID and status is CLOSED. I have yet to receive a response- the response should be done by XX/XX/XXXX. 

Attempt to contact Transunion via call - XX/XX/XXXX I called transunion again - very frustrated asking them how long its going to take as I am trying to purchase a home and this information is incorrect. the representative told me that there is nothing they can do - that XXXX has not responded to them yet on the dispute. The representative suggested that I call the collection agency. 

Attempt to call XXXX # XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX at XXXX. I went through their automated system, which was transferring me to a representative. As soon as that call went through, the representative hung up the call so I had to dial again.

Attempt to call XXXX # XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX at XXXX. I went through their automated system, which was transferring me to a representative. As soon as that call went through, FINALLY the representative answered and as soon as I told him its about a dispute, he routed me to the SAME automated system where I was hung up on. 

Attempt to EMAIL XXXX # XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I emailed XXXX explaining the same issue I am explaining here and they responded with " we can not delete an account from your credit '' - which I AM NOT ASKING THEM TO DO THAT, I AM ASKING THEM TO UPDATE THE STATUS. We went back and forth a few times, I told them that I have tried calling them NUMEROUS times, in which XXXX XXXX ( the manager ) gave me a new number : XXXX. 

Attempt to CALL XXXX # XXXX, # XXXX, # XXXX, # XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I called the number : XXXX. The phone would ring XXXX then be sent to voicemail, which I left a voice message. 

Attempt to EMAIL XXXX # XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX I emailed XXXX again letting them know that I only get sent to voice message in which they responded again that I need to call. 


I have not received a call back from them nor have I been able to talk to someone as they are asking me to do. I need this fixed on my credit, please help!
