Consumer complaint received 12/21/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA).
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint: Early this year there was a mix-up with my mailing address that is still affecting my credit score. After making payments for what I assumed was interest to avoid capitalization, my correspondence from XXXX began inexplicably being sent to an address that was over a decade old, and I received neither emails nor phone calls that notified me of the change. Again, I had been receiving correspondence and even made payments from my current address at which I 've been since I purchased it in XXXX. It was only until seeing a major dip in my credit score that I was even aware there was a problem. After speaking to one of XXXX XXXX representatives to see why they 'd reported me as delinquent, XXXX, and later a manager, XXXX, we were able to get the situation cleared up. They acknowledged that correspondence had been sent to several old addresses and were unable to determine precisely why. They claimed that they had tried to contact me but I can attest to the fact that I received no contact. My current address and phone number were confirmed and my account was made current and placed into deferment until my next payment which was due XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Unfortunately, my credit score is still showing me as having delinquent payments, even though I didnt receive any bills, correspondence, or contact of any kind from XXXX after the payment made in XXXX XXXX ( again, made under the impression that it was another interest payment to prevent it from being capitalized since I had n't received anything that indicated that my loan had moved from a deferment to a repayment status ). 

Ive filed a dispute with the credit agency ( Transunion ) already and did the same with XXXX. I asked XXXX to send me a written confirmation that my bills were being sent to the wrong address so the credit agency could complete their investigation and repair my credit score. Failing that, I asked that they provide an updated report that reflects the fact that my account was current, no payment was due until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, and I was therefore not a delinquent borrower. I provided all this information to XXXX in the form of a letter, along with a copy of my credit report. Also included was a copy of a billing statement dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX which reflected no past due balance and no payment due until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 

XXXX has refused to remove the delinquency or provide the information I requested so I can try to get the matter resolved through Transunion. Because my Federal loans count as 13 separate accounts, this has had a MAJOR impact on my credit score. My payment history for this and all other lenders is otherwise flawless and it is n't fair that a mistake made by XXXX can have so much impact on an otherwise perfect history.
