Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MI)

Subject : Request for Written Instruction Pursuant to 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) Dear TransUnion Consumer Assistance, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter concerning the furnishing of a consumer report without my explicit permission. Pursuant to the provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ), I hereby request that you provide me with a written instruction, if any, that I have on file granting you consent to furnish a consumer report on my behalf. This request is made in accordance with my rights as a consumer under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

To my knowledge, I have never given TransUnion consent to furnish a consumer report about me in the first place. As such, I believe that your actions may be in violation of federal law. I kindly request that you promptly provide me with the aforementioned written instruction, if it exists, to substantiate your right to furnish a report on my behalf. 

Failure to provide the requested documentation will leave me no choice but to pursue legal action against TransUnion for noncompliance with federal law. I will not hesitate to file a complaint in federal court and seek appropriate remedies. Additionally, I will consult with legal counsel immediately to ensure that my rights are protected throughout this process. 

Furthermore, I demand that the entire consumer report pertaining to my personal information be expunged from your database if my consent can not be substantiated by a valid written instruction. This includes any and all associated data, as well as any information derived from the consumer report. I expect full compliance with this request within the timeframe specified by applicable laws and regulations. 

Should this matter remain unresolved, I will provide you with an affidavit of truth and an invoice for the inconveniences caused by your noncompliance with federal law. I trust that it will not come to this, as I believe TransUnion values its reputation as a responsible and law-abiding credit reporting agency. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and expect a timely response within [ number of days, normally 30 days ] from the receipt of this letter. Please address all correspondences related to this matter to the address provided above or via email at XXXX. 

Thank you for your prompt assistance in rectifying this situation. I hope we can resolve this matter amicably. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (IL)

Citi sent a letter to my email address on XX/XX/XXXX requesting for information regarding a dispute opened previously with XXXX XXXX. 

The letter says there was a conditional credit issued for the disputed amount along with any related fees and interest charges while your inquiry is under review. 

However, there was no conditional credit issued in the month of XX/XX/XXXX per XX/XX/XXXX statement or after the initial conditional credit was reversed in XX/XX/XXXX. 

Citi Bank continues to make false claims and dishonest statements. Their dishonesty and unfaithful behavior has forced me to close my XXXX XXXX credit card account. I hope CFPB investigates further. Such a dishonest bank doesn't deserve my business and loyalty.

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint being filed by a third party, I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. 
We've talked to the bank & they've agreed to update the account. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not update the account because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the Dispute Letter they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the Dispute Letter ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy...
