Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA)

I have disputed a bankruptcy twice that is reported in my credit file and asked for the information to be verified. I provided proof to TransUnion that the method used to allegedly verify the item was invalid. TransUnion states bankruptcy information was obtained from XXXX. My XXXX report IS NOT reporting a bankruptcy ; therefore, TransUnion is in violation of the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) validating information from the original creditor. Considering the information indicates a CLEAR FCRA violation, I need all bankruptcy information currently showing under my social security number be PERMANENTLY DELETED from my credit report immediately. Attached is the 2 most recent investigation results from TransUnion and the page from my XXXX XXXX report that shows no bankruptcy reporting, My inquiry to the County Recorder of Deeds and U. S. Bankruptcy Courts confirmed TransUnion Credit Bureau has never validated or verified these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MISUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unawares to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrectly. The TRANSUNION Credit Bureau needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these Public Record Accounts bearing either a court order to place this information in my credit report, or my authorization of release bearing my signature. In the meantime, to be in full compliance with the FCRA laws and guidelines, all the information listed under Public Records needs to be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my name and social security number. Be further advised that I am closely monitoring my credit file. Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete this investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ). Per the Federal Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), you are required by federal law to verify through physical verification of the original signed consumer contract and/or judgment ( s ) all accounts and public information that you post on anyones credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, email in fraudulent and erroneous account information. As such, if this unauthorized public record information is not deleted from my credit report within the next 30 days, I will be filing a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Failure to respond in a satisfactory manner within 30 days of receipt of this certified letter will result in a small claims action against the TRANSUNION Credit Reporting Bureau. I will be seeking no less than {$5000.00} in damages for, but not limited to : 1 ) Defamation ; 2 ) Negligent Enhancement of Identity Fraud ; 3 ) Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
