Consumer complaint received 2020-09-24
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 — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (PA)

All 3 credit bureaus ( XXXX, Experian, and XXXX  ) have not responded to my letters since XX/XX/2020. 
XX/XX/2020 a debt verification letter was sent out to the bureaus and I received no response well over 40 days. 
I tried to be understanding due to the pandemic so XX/XX/2020 I wrote another letter to them stating due to them never responding to my letters by law they have to delete the accounts in question and its now XX/XX/2020 and I still haven't received any response from any of the 3 major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, Experian ). 
I'm usually a very understanding person but this is just Ludacris. My credit is very important to me and right now the negative items in question are hindering me and my family from being able to move forward in life and I feel like the Credit bureaus aren't taking my request serious. This has to be against the law. I have went 115 days with no response from all 3 credit bureaus

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (WI)

For the past 9 months I have requested verification on several accounts reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. These inaccurate and unverifiable accounts have given me serious XXXX  as I have been denied credit because of them. I have called and sent several certified mail with documents of proof to the inaccurate accounts, but still I have been ignored. Each time I am only sent back automated responses to my investigation request. I know they are automated because they all respond the same way even though I send the supporting documents. I requested verification of an inaccurate, unverifiable Bankruptcy that is being reported on my credit report and was told it was verified by XXXX, however, I have had a Security freeze on my XXXX report since XX/XX/2019. I would like to know how I was given a fair investigation if XXXX was never contacted to request the information? Because if XXXX were contacted, they would have informed " Whoever '' that there is a security freeze on my account and the information could not be provided at the time. I contacted XXXX and they informed me that since the security freeze was placed on my report, they have not released any of my information to ANY agency. I also mailed the Bureau a copy of a court document that was mailed to me by the courts where I live that states, they have not furnished any of my personal/public record information to any Credit Agency. So again, how was this inaccurate, unverifiable Bankruptcy account verified? I currently have enough documented proof to show I have not been given a fair investigation.

It appears that my credit with you has been compromised. I was going through my records & noticed many files which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any account which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files. If you feel there is a possibility these accounts belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly. 

Please remove/block the disputed items as they were opened without my consent or knowledge, pursuant to Section 605B of Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (NJ)

I have two credit cards with Citibank. One has a credit balance ( money owed to me ) of {$660.00} ( card  ending in XXXX ). The other credit card has a balance due XXXX money I owe the bank ) of just under {$100.00} ( card ending in XXXX ). Three times I have called the bank and asked that they transfer the funds from the one credit card to pay the balance owed on the other credit card and mail me the difference. However every time I call the person taking my call acts like I am speaking a foreign language and I never get any meaningful assistance. I want the one credit card account paid using the credit balance in the other credit card account that is owed to me and the difference mailed to me. This is NOT  a request to close either of the accounts it is simply a request that money owed to me be refunded after the amount owed is paid.

I have previously disputed with XXXX, experian and XXXX on XX/XX/2021 regarding certain accounts which I found inaccurate.

These erroneous reports badly hurt my credibility. I'm certain that my rights as a consumer protected under the law have been violated by this inaccurate information.

I am a victim of identity theft, and I reached out to one to try to get this resolved. They have three accounts that were results of identity theft. The closed/charged off accounts were for {$480.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, {$1300.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and {$730.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I reached out to the fraud department multiple times to have it removed. They told me about an address that I am not associated with. They havent done any thorough investigating because no one from their department has reached out to contact me or ask me any questions to confirm any information theyve received. I also sent them an identity theft police report along with an FTC identity theft report. The negative accounts are damaging my credit and I would like this resolved properly.

I have disputed information that was reporting inaccurately on my credit report and none of the credit bureaus have responded as of yet and it has been two months as of today. I tried to dispute things online but Experian indicated something were disputed but I never received information on those items via mail or email. XXXX  indicated when I tried to dispute online that there was an account with them and that is not the case so I don't know if they blocked me from trying to dispute or what. 

I will be attaching the letters that were sent to the bureaus as well

Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Information - Urgent Removal Request Dear TransUnion Consumer Relations, I am writing to dispute a derogatory delinquent account that was reported by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023, which inaccurately states that I owe {$10000.00}. This erroneous information has significantly harmed my credit score and financial well-being. 
Despite my efforts to rectify this matter, XXXX XXXX has failed to correct the inaccuracies. I provided evidence of double payments made, but they continued reporting late payments. Even after a year has passed, the incorrect information remains on my credit report, negatively impacting my financial standing. I lodged a complaint against XXXX XXXX with the CFPB ( Complaint ID : XXXX ). 
I hereby request the immediate and permanent removal of this account from my credit report, as XXXX XXXX XXXXs actions violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The FCRA mandates accurate credit reporting, and XXXX XXXX XXXX persistent refusal to rectify this matter is a direct violation of the law. 
As an affected consumer, I am entitled to seek compensation for actual damages, punitive damages, attorney 's fees, and penalties associated with FCRA violations. I urge TransUnion to take swift action in accordance with the FCRA and remove this erroneous item from my credit report. 
Please consider the urgency of this matter, given the impact it has on my financial situation. I eagerly await your prompt response and resolution to this dispute. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

I contacted XXXX XXXX which then became Navient without my knowledge until I received an email from Navient. XXXX XXXX did not warn me about the company changing over, nor did they update me with contact information for Navient. I have received SEVERAL emails that I still poses forcing me to make payments while I was in school. I was always told payments are to be in derferment if the student is enrolled in a certain amount of credits for the semester. Well, I received emails telling me I was delinquent on payments, and how I needed to contact them right away. The emails told me payment was coming due because of the terms changing on my loan. I tried to call them to work out a plan a while back, but they told me they had no plans to fit my needs. All I constantly received was emails telling me the term for my loans have changed and I had to pay this amount by this date. This was unprofessional.

i recently made the discovery of an fraudulent account on my credit report. i completed an ftc report, and also filed a police report of the accounts. i sent these documents to Experian, XXXX, and XXXX  and each of these companies told me because the account had been verified, that they can not remove the account.. and because it had been disputed in the past. I tried to explain the reason for that was because i hired a company ( XXXX XXXX  ) to do credit repairs and was unaware that the account was fraudulent and the methods they used to dispute the account. i decided to to do my own credit examination and took a closer look at my credit report and came to the realization of the fraudulent account. and was still told nothing can be done. This account is not mine and was created fraudulently.
