Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I am writing to address a matter concerning my consumer report and the non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) on your part. I am deeply concerned about the negligent handling of my personal information and the failure to adhere to the regulations set forth by the FCRA. 

On XX/XX/2023, I submitted a demand to Transunion requesting the immediate removal of an account from my consumer report. 

On or about XX/XX/2023, I received a letter from Transunion acknowledging the receipt of my demand and confirming the deletion of the account, as stated in Exhibit ( XXXX ) However, I was shocked to discover that on XX/XX/2023, Transunion responded on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) portal stating that they would delete the account. This contradictory response indicates a lack of internal communication and adherence to proper procedures, further adding to my distress. 

Transunion 's failure to comply with FCRA 607 ( a ), which mandates the maintenance of reasonable procedures to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to specified purposes listed under section 604, is deeply troubling. Pursuant to 604 ( 2 ), I have not provided you with any written instructions to furnish any report relating to me, nor do you have a permissible purpose to furnish a consumer report on my behalf. Additionally, pursuant to 617 ( 1 ), you are liable to me, the consumer, in the amount of XXXX in damages for emotional distress resulting from your negligent failure to comply with the FCRA provisions. 

Moreover, it has come to my attention that you have obtained information under false pretenses from XXXX XXXX, who is a consumer reporting agency, as defined in the FCRA. This action constitutes a violation of 619, and I hold you liable for fines in the amount of XXXX 

To resolve this matter amicably and avoid further legal action, i propose the following : Payment : I am willing to settle this matter for a total amount of XXXX in compensation for the damages incurred, including emotional distress. 

Non-Disclosure Agreement ( NDA ) : Upon settlement, both parties enter into a legally binding NDA to maintain the confidentiality of this settlement and the events leading up to it.

Settlement Release : I kindly withdraw my small claims complaint, releasing and confirming the resolution of this dispute and absolving You from any further claims or liability related to this matter. 

I believe this settlement offer is fair and reasonable, considering the negligence and potential harm caused by Transunion 's actions. By accepting this offer, you will avoid the inconvenience and costs associated with further legal proceedings. Including charges that may be bought up against any person who has a managing control of the company I urge you to address this matter promptly and appropriately, ensuring compliance with the FCRA provisions and the fair treatment of consumers. I request a written response within [ reasonable time frame, e.g., XXXX days ] from the date of this letter, indicating your acceptance of this settlement offer and your commitment to resolving this matter amicably. 

Failure to respond or failure to comply with the FCRA regulations will leave me no choice but to pursue further legal action to protect my rights and seek appropriate remedies. 

I look forward to receiving your prompt response and a resolution Please contact XXXX XXXX XXXX Address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX
