This is my second report about XXXX bank. They sent us a letter saying we could defer our XXXX payment. 
Since XXXX I paid {$400.00} in XXXX ( late but less than 30 days ) They reported us as being more than 30 days late I paid {$400.00} in XXXX I paid {$400.00} in XXXX They have reported us as paying more than 30 days late in XXXX and XXXX to again ruin my credit. This seems to be an every 6 month or so thing they do trashing my credit and causing me to get denied for loans. 
They also have " Accidentally '' changed our payments from what our contract is {$340.00} a month to {$430.00} so they can screw us out of more interest ( Again ) We are on the 13th year of our 18 year mortgage and so far this year, they have charged us {$470.00} in interest alone when hardly anything should be going to interest, especially since I'm paid a couple of years ahead.

To Whom It May Concern, After months of trying to get these inaccuracies fixed on my credit report. Dates are incorrect and other issues as well. I have disputed now, i'm fed up with the lack of response from the credit bureaus. This letter shall serve as formal Notice of my Intent to file a Complaint with the FTC, due to your blatant disregard of the law. 

As indicated by the attached copies of letters and mailing receipts, you have been delivered by registered mail both a dispute letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, as well as a follow-up letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX. As of this moment, you have not done your duty mandated under the law. Your inaction in this matter is inexcusable, and your disregard for the law is contemptible. Rest assured, I will hold you to account.

For the record, the following information is being erroneously included on my credit report, as I have advised you on two separate occasions, more than 75 days and again 40 days ago : If you do not immediately remove this inaccurate and incomplete information, I will file a formal complaint with the FTC. Furthermore, I intend to seek redress in civil action, for recover of damages, costs, and attorneys fees, should you continue in your deliberate obstruction of the law. For this purpose, I am carefully documenting these events, including the lack of response REQUIRED under law from you.

Additionally, please provide the name, address, and telephone number of each credit grantor or other subscriber. 

Under federal law, you had 30 days to complete your re-investigation, yet you have failed to respond. Your continued delays are inexcusable.

Sincerely yours, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( B ) " any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device.

15 U.S. Code 6801 - Protection of nonpublic personal information Pursuant to 15 USC code 6801 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ( i ), I did not give my permission to any company to furnish my reports to any consumer reporting agencies.

Pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681d - Disclosure of investigative consumer reports, the consumer has a right to prohibit information contained in the consumer 's file with any consumer reporting agency from being used in connection with any credit or insurance transaction that is not initiated by the consumer. 

XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax have been reporting consumer credit transactions without the consumer 's authority. Congress did not give them authority. Pursuant to Fair Credit Reporting Act 602.

With all the information provided above for example, XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax have been reporting without my consent a case that is in XXXX since XXXX.

Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft. I was going through my credit file & noticed many files which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b ( a ) XXXX and Equifax credit bureaus shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed account on my file. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/2008 Balance : {$7100.00}

I exercised my rights as a consumer to request all documents related to an account reporting on my consumer report. I did not ask for a re investigation i asked for a method was used to determine what was being reported .I specifically asked to see copies of the documents Transunion is harboring to produce such results on my report. Instead of getting the documentation that I asked for I was denied for a reinvestigation. Again, I did not request a re investigation I requested copies of the documents showing where they had the right to report. This clear disregard is an indicator that they are truly not doing there job but instead using automated stall tactics as a way to cover the tracks of wrong doings. Consumer reports should not be handled in such a manner as they effect people 's livelihoods. Attached is copies of what was set to Transunion with guidelines on exactly what I wanted. They received this info and still chose to ignore my request and now I am exercising right right to demand that they either produce the documents that they have on file or correct my report and delete invalid info. This is a clear violation and Transunion is now liable for damages up to {$1000.00} and I will not hesitate to take further steps in order to ensure fair and accurate reporting.
