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

I filed a complaint against on XX/XX/20. From XXXX reply, I learned that my credit report was checked for a credit line increase that I didn't authorize. I have a freeze and fraud alert on all three credit files. This complaint also consist of XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion releasing my credit reports without consent. 

The following are issues that XXXX needs to answer that were unanswered in the first complaint and prompt additional complaints. 
-- -- - ( 1 ). Why was an unknown email placed on my account without verification? My email address has always been XXXX. 
-- -- - ( 2 ). Why was my account reported to all three credit bureau agencies as delinquent? There were no delinquencies. Through automatic payment from an account that I no longer used, three payments were returned. I replaced the drafted payments, and I was charged return check fees, not late fees. The credit bureaus do not report return checks on accounts. It reports late payments. The account was paid in a timely manner. By law, I am supposed to be given time to pay for any return check payments. 
-- This unfair credit reporting violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act and debt collection. I will file a complaint with my State 's Attorney General Office for an investigation, and I will file a federal lawsuit if necessary to resolve this matter. As a result of XXXX inaccurate reporting my account as late, my credit score was lowered to XXXX. 
-- -- - ( 3 ). Why was my credit line decreased based on other creditors? I've never paid any of my creditors late.

-- My credit score has been negatively effected in terms of a low score of XXXX because XXXX lowered the credit line, which indicates to creditors that I used nearly 100 % of the credit lin, which is inaccurate. This is abusive credit card practice. 
-- -- - ( 4 ). In a tape recorded conversation, the representative indicated that XXXX would removed the return check fees due to my hospitalization. 
-- -- - ( 5 ). If XXXX attempted to contact me about the return payments, I would've been unable to answer the calls at my home resident. Beside my home phone number, my account provided a cell phone number. I never received any voicemail messages on my cell phone from XXXX notifying me of return payments, nor did I receive any letters. 
-- -- - ( 6 ). XXXX claimed that emails were sent to me at XXXX. This fraudulent email never belonged to me, and the name alone should've alerted XXXX of an account breach. Most importantly, I was never notified to verify a change in my email address. 
-- -- - ( 7 ). There has been security breaches with XXXX and XXXX. I question how XXXX accessed my credit report files with a freeze and a permanent fraud alert. I have not removed the freeze in over a year. 
-- If XXXX doesn't resolve my issues of concern, and my credit files doesn't report accurate information. I will be hiring an attorney to take legal measures for a resolution.
