Complaint:
In 2007 I had an account with Wells Fargo in XXXX Washington. I closed this account but I was still getting statements. I called to inquire but was told " the account was n't my concern, it 's no big deal, we do n't see what the problem is, everyone has these types of accounts, do n't worry about it. '' I did not authorize Wells Fargo to open this account in my name and when I attempted to find out why they 'd done this, I was treated as though I did n't matter. I was " XXXX '' like I was n't supposed to be concerned or upset. Wells Fargo then blocked access by me to any information about accounts in my name.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint:
To whom it may concern, lately, I checked my credit report and since I do not do it very often, I was shocked to see unverified, inaccurate and false accounts on my credit report reported by two collections agencies XXXX XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX. I contacted all three credit bureau ( XXXX, Transunion and XXXX ) and they all sent me a letter telling me that these accounts meet the requirements the FRCA. How is that possible? I wonder myself. For two, I had all types of troubles getting credit and getting service and I did not know that the reason I was going through so much trouble was because the credit bureau were colluding with these two collection agencies. 
I sent them letters and Transunion did not even bother to reply to my dispute. I sent two validation letters to the collection agencies and it is still pending. I see no movement. 
According to established state and federal consumer protection laws, they are required to verify all accounts you post onto a credit report, and to make the information you have used to conduct this verification available to consumers upon request. Since, they said that everything is verified, it is my right to ask them to provide me with the information you have used to verify these accounts, namely, the original consumer contract with my name, signature and other identifying information on it which pertains to each negative account listed on my credit report.

I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and that I'm not being taken seriously.

I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you have caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have got in the hands of the wrong person.
