Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MO)

This is XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. Regardless of the multiple written requests, the unverified account listed below is still reporting on my credit report in violation of federal law. The XXXX/TransUnion/XXXX  Credit Bureau failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law and continued reporting of unconfirmed information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. Please update the account completely from my Credit Reports : XXXX XXXX Balance : {$25000.00}

Company: American First Finance, Inc. (FL)

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, agent and principle, holder in due course and attorney in fact to XXXX XXXX. 

i pulled my credit report XX/XX/22 and seen that America First Finance wants to cause stress and anxiety to my life by causing harm to financial reputation.

American First Finance is continuing to commit a unlawful extortion act against me.

Attached is a cease & desist order to American First Finance that had also been sent certified mail. 

American First Finance may not have any communcation with me. 

The term communication means the conveying of information regarding a debt directly or indirectly to any person through any medium pursuant to 15 USC 1692a ( 2 ). As you should be aware that a credit report is a medium.

American First Finance is prohibitted to report any information my consumer report? So i suggest you remove this tradeline from my consumer report or you will be violating the cease and desist orded and lead to me filing litgation.

Im aware, American First Finance has also sold this account to an collections agency XXXX XXXX, which im aware is securities fraud! UCC 1-306. Waiver or Renunciation of Claim or Right After Breach states A claim or right arising out of an alleged breach may be discharged in whole or in part without consideration by agreement of the aggrieved party in an authenticated record. 

Im aware that a charge-off is the writing off of a debt and termination of collection activity without release of personal liability under federal regulation. American First Finance written this debt off and filed a 1099-C since I wasn't provided with a 1099-C. Why is your gross income being reported to my consumer report? 

Not to mentention the deep pool of FCRA violations they have commited Im also aware that FCRA states that i have a right to a fair and equitable credit report and that i also have the right to privacy, meaning that anything i dont want furnished on my credit report can be removed by law.

Now im aware American First Finance are making false claims pursuant to 31 U.S. Code 3729 Stop commiting fraud!

By filing this CFPB complaint, I, XXXX XXXX, am informing the credit reporting agencies that I was a victim of identity theft. According to FCRA section 605b, credit reporting agencies are required to block/remove any accounts listed on an identity theft report. I did some research on how to remove the fraudulent accounts from my report and discovered that I needed to visit the Federal Trade Commission or https : //www.ftc.gov to file a report. Please refer to the ATTACHED materials to help stop false information from being put on my report. The following is a list of the accounts and objects that do not belong to me or that were opened without my consent : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXL XXXX, KY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KY XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX, KY XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX EXPERIAN XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: The Bureaus, Inc. (NY)

I XXXX XXXX have tried to bring to the attention with each credit bureau that there has been a fraudulent claim to an old XXXX XXXX account by a fourth party that clearly has committed identity theft from a third-party debt buyer. This agency has also claimed that they represent a debt buyer known as Bureaus Investment Group No. 15. I claimed that not only did this debt get purchased by this company, but they in turn took my debt information and processed a debt collection application to another debt collection agency known as The Bureaus. I hereby post all XXXX XXXX accounts from a XXXX XXXX credit bureau posted XX/XX/2017. My accounts show as follows : Account ending in XXXX shows settled less than full balance, balance XXXX, account ending in XXXX, balance {$460.00} ( This is the account stated sold to both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Bureaus Investment Group No. 15 ), account ending in XXXX paid in full, XXXX balance closed by consumer, account ending in XXXX, paid in full, XXXX balance. This accounting proves that I only had one unpaid account with XXXX XXXX. Yet I believe that The Bureaus obtained my information by identity theft, either through XXXX XXXX XXXX database, or directly from XXXX XXXX. It is difficult to believe that a publicly traded company such as XXXX XXXX would be XXXX enough to sell the same debt twice. Accordingly, I claim identity theft by The Bureaus from either XXXX XXXX XXXX or from XXXX XXXX directly. I paid my XXXX XXXX account directly with XXXX XXXX XXXX. My disputes with The Bureaus went nowhere, where this fraudulent company stated to the bureaus that the XXXX XXXX debt purchase/collection was valid. This is an insult to the prestige on the national credit reporting system, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX collectively. Each bureau must see through this scam and delete this erroneous collection information permanently and take away all reporting rights from The Bureaus, with principal offices located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IL XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. This is a shameful act against an American consumer. Each credit bureau must see through this scam and delete this negative information permanently. XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IA)

Equifax is attempting to close another complaint by sending out a letter asking for additional information. In that letter they provide a number XXXX -- XXXX which is an automated system that places consumer in a dead-end loop in which the consumer can not talk to anyone directly about issues. I attempted XXXX times to enter my confirmation number, social security number and street address only to be told by an automated system that the information was incorrect. I then attempted to open up a new investigation only to go through the same process. They are also requesting that I have to manually send information via the mail in order to provide of identity so that they may investigate further. That is a ludicrous excuse to deny access and also respond to a formal complaint first submitted to the CFPB several weeks back. The credit bureau is attempting to place an extra burden upon consumer in order for their company to stall and not respond. I am unable to provide an attachment but have the official letter sent by Equifax on XXXX/XXXX/15 in which they attempt to defer response to the previous complaint and require me ( the consumer ) to provide additional information. The reference number on the letter is XXXX which seems to be associated with the previous complaint but can not be confirm as there is no way to contact Equifax and talk to an actual person. 
Kind Regards, XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX : ( XXXX ) XXXX

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (RI)

The results of this complaint will be shared with the House Oversight Committee. 

XXXX XXXX has been harassing and defaming me. They have refused to follow federal law regarding quality of goods and services purchased with a credit card. 

They have defamed me and falsely claimed that they received defamatory information from XXXX, which they did not. When confronted with that lie, they claim that they had a duty to report negative information -- still NO BANKRUPTCY EXISTS so that is defamatory in and of itself. 

These are things they and CFPB will need to answer in the coming hearing on why the CFPB is not doing its job.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NJ)

InXX/XX/2020 I parked my XXXX vehicle and in front of my brothers house in XXXX XXXX, NY to go on vacation. The car was reported as abandoned, ticketed, booted, and towed during my vacation. Also during my vacation, the COVID pandemic took hold of XXXX. Upon return, I tracked down the vehicle to XXXX XXXX towing in XXXX XXXX. I was informed it was a city tow and would need to be resolved with the city, they were unable to release. I contacted XXXX, I learned i would need to go to the DMV to pay fees. However, the DMV was closed due to COVID. 

From the months of XXXX through XXXX I kept in regular contact with XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX informing them I had not abandoned the vehicle, was simply unable to take the vehicle due to COVID pandemic. 

In XXXX, I made my call to XXXX to follow up as usual and they informed me the car was scheduled for repossession the next day. I arrived to the XXXX finance office that afternoon to see if there was anyway to get the car out of impound. I was told it was impossible without having it released by the DMV, which was closed. Unable to make any type of resolution with XXXX, XXXX XXXX, or XXXX, XXXX repossessed the vehicle. 

I promptly paid the repo fee as well as fees that XXXX charged XXXX for storage of the vehicle during COVID ( NY charged storage fees daily even though I was unable to get the vehicle back ). XXXX reported to credit agencies a repossessed vehicle. 

When I did not have the car, I did not miss a payment. I did not miss a payment when they repossessed, and did not miss the subsequent XXXX payment after I paid XXXX greater than {$2000.00} to get the car back. Despite my loyalty and financial responsibility, XXXX is unwilling to remove the report as a repossession in XXXX. 

I have called XXXX, wrote the credit agency with XXXX, and disputed with the bureaus. XXXX continues to refuse to change the mark in XXXX from repossession to paid, despite a positive payment being made that month.

The vehicle was repressed and now I have the inaccurate Debt amount showing up on my credit report. BMW FINANCIAL SERVICES have knowingly reported inaccurate amount due to the credit bureaus. I also had Gap Insurance coverage on the vehicle paid off. Once a vehicle is repossessed and sold at Auction dont I suppose to receive partial reimbursement for Gap Insurance. BMW FINANCIAL SERVICES also has a address listed that I have NEVER LIVED before in my life. I think I could possibly be a victim of identity theft if BMW FINANCIAL SERVICES have been sending my mail to this address. ALSO BMW IS REPORTING THE DATE LAST ACTIVE is reported inaccurately to the credit bureaus.
