Prior to requesting Experian to investigate my account with XXXX XXXX  XXXX who no longer holds our account as of XX/XX/XXXX my Experian Credit report score was 4 points higher on the date in which I opened the investigation in early XXXX, however, I received a notice this morning from Experian stating that my Credit Score had been negatively impacted due to retaliation from XXXX XXXX. They went in and changed some reporting components because I opened an investigation based on their reporting of various late payments during a time when we were in a work-out plan/forebearance agreement due to unforeseen XXXX XXXX XXXX   with our Daughter who was XXXX  in XXXX  for over 30 days at the end of XXXX which resulted in XXXX XXXX XXXX as a result. However, when we commence the work-out plan payments we were never late and was informed this information would not be reported to the Credit Bureaus. Also, when they transferred the account to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX we had just received approval for a Loan Forbearance and should not been reported late, as it was also transferred in XX/XX/XXXX. This is blatant retaliation against XXXX XXXX-American U.S. Citizens who raise issues or concerns about the ill-treatment from Creditors, as such. I previously reported XXXX XXXX  in XXXX for their misleading business practices and they are retaliating, as this account is no longer being Serviced by them and it is direct attack on my credit to oppress and suppress economic upward mobility and obtain access to capital and lower interest rates due to their ill-practices against XXXX XXXX-Americans.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

It has come to my attention that there are errors on my credit report. 
Case law in XXXX vs. Trans Union, courts ruled that information may not seem to be parroted and that a reasonable investigation must take place upon receipt of a consumer complaint. According to the FCRA, when a credit reporting agency receive a dispute the CRA must prove it or remove it. 
I am demanding the proof be provided that these accounts are in fact mine or removed. Simply verifying that names, addresses and/or Social Security numbers match is insufficient. That s what fraud is, using information belonging to someone else to obtain credit. DO NOT tell me I need to file a police report, as there is no requirement to do so under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Is your obligation under the FDCPA to prove it or remove it. 
In XXXX Vs XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the courts said, during a dispute and subsequently investigation, with the original creditor, collector, or a credit bureau, that the original creditor or collector must provide account level documentation. That means an original contract, or similar proof, not just a printout of the payments that were made. 
I am also notifying you that pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) that you should be aware that information furnishers have lost number suits and are unreliable. 
I will wait the appropriate time as prescribed by law at which time I will proceed to protect my good name and avail myself of any and all legal rights, including but not limited to look at auction.

I paid Transunion for a credit report and they signed me up for their monthly billing plan. I never wanted to sign up for this service, but the website is extremely confusing and keeps trying to force you to purchase different products. I was able to cancel the monthly service plan, but I am still being charged for this month. 

I also paid for a credit report to submit to a landlord and the Transition site won't let me print my credit report or download a copy. What I paid for is useless because I can't send it to my potential landlord. Their website is a complete scam.

I reported to Navy Federal Credit Union on XX/XX/2020 that there had been money transferred out of my account without my knowledge. I informed them of all the information i had, including the person who did the transfers, how she was able to hack into my account, as well as where a large portion of the money was that the company could have frozen at the time till they investigated my claim. From information i gathered on my own because the financial institution would not give me any information, they allowed a large cashiers check to be cashed that was a portion of my money that had been stolen and did not freeze the other persons account until 5 days after my complaint was given. I was told that it could take ten days to complete the investigation and i would be notified after that time of what would happen. The 10th day was yesterday XX/XX/2020. I checked my account today and there was no message for me and there was also no money put back into my account. I called the bank today, XX/XX/2020, and spoke with 2 individuals within the securities department at the bank whom handle the issues and they told me that the investigation had not been completed yet and they could not tell me anything else other then that they would message a supervisor who would contact me within 24 hours. Federal Regulation E states that a financial institution has 10 business days to complete an investigation as long as they are informed in a timely manner, which they were. It also states that if they are unable to complete it within that timeframe that they can extend it to 45 days given they provide a provisional credit in the full amount errored on the account. Non of these things are being done leaving me and my children penniless. please do something to get them moving on this. thanks
