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. I discovered that some of the information on my credit report was incorrect when I reviewed it. Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) require the 3 credit bureaus to validate this account ( A ). It is not permissible to fail to validate this reporting account as unverified information without providing any proof within the time frame specified by law. 
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 remove 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 ... as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] ( ( a ) Information on file ; sources ; report recipients. TransUnion shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer. If the consumer to whom the file relates requests that the first 5 digits of the social security number ( or similar identification number ) of the consumer not be included in the disclosure and the consumer reporting agency has received appropriate proof of the identity of the requester, the consumer reporting agency shall so truncate such number in such disclosure. & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] ( a ) Reinvestigations of Disputed Information. If the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a my file at TransUnion is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a creditor, the Bureaus shall, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from my file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or creditor. My credit report includes the erroneous information that needs to be investigated and remove : XXXX XXXXXXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2007 Balance : {$0.00}

The dispute item do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/2019 Balance {$0.00}.

On XX/XX/23 I called the collection agency " MRO PPO LCC '' about a account in the amojunt of XXXX, that is not mine. I then called them to verify and they told me that, it was opened in XXXX, TN and they could not give me the rest of the infomration. I never lived or drove though XXXX, so they recommend that I call the orginal credior " XXXX XXXX XXXX  and XXXX XXXX '', so I called them. Both companies verified that I did not have a account with them and that it looks like someone has been using my information and I keep hearing a name " XXXX XXXX '', who is attached to my new cell phone number.

As soon as I got my new number, I think XXXX sold my information.

Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC. (GA)

In XX/XX/2022, a debt validation letter was sent to Santander Consumer USA XXXX Inc. in XXXXXXXX XXXX The company responded with a copy of the contract between myself and the dealership. Per the FDCPA, I refused to send another payment until they sent a certified copy of the promissory note. It never came. They then stole my car, giving my information to someone I gave no consent to, and furnished late payments to the reporting agencies. They reported the repossession and did not attempt to correct or cure the injury done to me. As a result, I have suffered higher interest rates on consumer transactions I have been approved for and have suffered many denials. They have never given me full disclosure or time to opt out of my private transaction being made public. This company has committed identify fraud by using my information without my consent and for something that was not to my benefit. They also have called an insane amount of times. 


The Credit Reporting Agencies ( acting as Bureaus ) are guilty of not receiving a court order or express written consent from me, XXXX : XXXX and proceeding to furnish damaging information.

I have requested they provide proof that these items belong to me and no such proof was provided they are in multiple violations of the fair credit. My understanding is they have 4 days to block the fraudulent items on my credit report. They have failed to do so in that time frame. They have also failed to provide any proof of ownership for accounts circled in attached report.

My loan was previously serviced by XXXX XXXX  whom my last notification from them was on or about XX/XX/2020 stating they had all documents and in process of loan modification. Neither XXXX or Carrington Mortgage notified me prior to the transfer. This is part of a long list of complaints. On XX/XX/2020 I sent Carrington Mortgage a letter requesting to utilize my rights under the CARES ACT and requested a COVID-19 forbearance on my mortgage loan by mail and through Carrington 's Portal. The next day I log in Carrington has updated the portal which stated Covid 19 assistance from XX/XX/2020 until XX/XX/2020. Carrington 's backdated my request to XX/XX/2020 please be mindful that Carrington 's did not have my account on XX/XX/2020 and XXXX was still working on my loan modification. Also if this were correct which it is not Carrington 's would have been unlawfully charging me fees under the CARES ACT. I have a long list of fees that Carrington 's charged after the transfer.
