Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

I approved XXXX mortgage lenders do pull my credit for a loan. Within 24 hours I now can not stop the phone calls to my new cell number from lenders who the credit bureaus have sold my info to. I went and opted out now but its too late. I has XXXX phone calls to my phone in XXXX hours. XXXX! My phone is still ringing all days from solicitors while I am trying to work. It is completely unacceptable they are allowed to sell my personal data without my consent. I should have had to OPT IN, not out. This has got to be stopped. I have no way to stop the harassment from marketers now.

I was attempting to buy tickets for a concert in XXXX on Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX were playing. I was trying to buy tickets off XXXX the day of the concert, which I've done in the past. Someone agreed with me to sell the tickets at a reasonable price, two for {$240.00}. The seller wanted to do the transaction via XXXX, I never used XXXX but presumed it was safe because it was linked with my bank. I attempted to transfer the funds to the Seller at the email address XXXX, but the transferred failed to go through due to an error with the Seller 's XXXX account. I usually would have been alarmed by this but the seller was incredibly pleasant and immediately suggested we use his wife 's account at XXXX and he gave her name as XXXX XXXX. The fact the account was already set up and he provided a full name that was associated with the XXXX account reassured me to send the money. I sent the money and texted the seller if his wife had received it, he said they could not tell. I noticed that the XXXX transaction stated it was received so I asked again and the seller told me to simply hold on because he was out work. I got very frustrated after ten minutes and proceeded to repeatedly call the Seller, but the Seller did not pick up. It appears the number is still in operation, I tried calling it from an unknown number today but no response. The seller 's number is XXXX I called my bank, Regions, the next day after it happened to see if I could get the transaction blocked. The Regions representative was nice and sympathetic, he told me that they should be able to block it and that it would take 3-5 business days. I made this call on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. I received a peculiar notice ( attached below ) that the regions disclosure statement and agreement for electronic banking services had been amended on XX/XX/XXXX. Interestingly enough, the amendments were primarily to the section regarding XXXX and other payment services. Section 7 covering refused and returned transfers was amended, the section now states that Regions will use reasonable efforts to block prohibited transfers and return funds. I'm curious as to what the section said before. Nonetheless, I called Regions on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX because it had been 5 business days and they informed that my funds could not be returned because XXXX does not have a fraud prevention policy when the transfer was authorized by the user. I felt betrayed due to my belief that the transfer was through my online banking portal it would be safe and that Regions would prevent or reverse any fraudulent transaction. I was sketched out about the curiously timed amendments and by the fact that Regions did not contact me when they knew my funds could not be returned.

As the federal government agency charged with implementing and administering the federal consumer financial laws, the CFPB is committed to ensuring that companies follow the law. For that reason, the CFPB and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which together with the CFPB helps enforce fair credit reporting laws However, the FCRA requires procedures to assure accuracy, and the fact that a CRA obtains information from another source simply does not mean that the information is free from error These CRA 's are erroneously reporting inaccurate information on my consumer file and requesting me to provide them with personal information pertaining to my person, however, are allowing 3rd party furnished to provide them with personal information to be included in my consumer report, this constitutes fraud and defamation of character. 


The FCRA regulates consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ), which includes any entity that, in exchange for monetary fees, regularly engages ... in the practice of assembling or evaluating consumer credit information or other information on consumers for the purpose of furnishing consumer reports to third parties. 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( f ). 

I have attached my DL for identification A credit reporting agencys reliance on a reputable furnisher may be evidence that the credit reporting agency followed reasonable procedures. However, contrary to the district courts holding, reliance on a furnisher does not categorically insulate a credit reporting agency from reasonable procedures liability under section 1681e ( b ).

If a CRA willfully fails to comply with any requirement of the FCRA, it may be held liable by a private plaintiff for actual damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00} per consumer. Id. 1681n ( a ), ( 1 ) ( A ). If a CRA negligently violates a provision of the FCRA, it may be held liable for the actual damages arising from the violation. Id. 1681o
