She also said due to the suspicious activity, this charge will not be on your account. I received a letter yesterday on XX/XX/year> from Citibank security operation service team.

4 | Topic: Complaint about inaccurate credit reporting | Relevance: 2 | Topic: Complaint about inaccurate credit reporting | 2 | 10/17/24 | Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports | Credit reporting | Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem | Their investigation did not fix an error on your report | Dear CFPB, I am submitting this formal complaint under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681, and the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ), 15 U.S.C. 1666, against TransUnion for inaccurately reporting late payments and maintaining erroneous information regarding my XXXX XXXX XXXX account # XXXX. Below, I detail the violations and applicable laws : 1. Violation of Payment Timeliness ( FCBA, 15 U.S.C. 1666 ) Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ), 15 U.S.C. 1666, creditors are required to correct billing errors, including misreporting of payments made on time. In this case, the credit reporting agencies continue to report late payments without sufficient evidence to substantiate the accuracy of such claims. This failure to provide correct information violates my rights under the FCBA. The agencies have not provided any accurate information to support their reports, which constitutes a violation of the mandatory timelines for correcting billing errors.
Legal Consequences : Non-compliance with the FCBA may result in penalties, including statutory damages and legal action by consumers. If proven, this could lead to further penalties and financial liability for failure to correct inaccurate billing records.
2. Billing Error Violation ( FCBA, 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the FCBA, once a billing error is disputed, the creditor must correct it within a set time frame. I have attempted to resolve this issue with TransUnion, but neither the bank nor the credit reporting agencies have adequately addressed the billing errors related to the reported late payments. This represents another violation of the FCBA for failing to investigate and correct billing errors.
Legal Consequences : Under the FCBA, failure to investigate and correct billing disputes could result in legal action by the affected consumer, as well as penalties including statutory damages.
3. COVID-19 Reporting Adjustments ( CARES Act ) During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ( CARES Act ) provided additional protections for consumers who sought financial relief, such as deferred payments or credit modifications. If payments were deferred or modified due to COVID-19, creditors and credit reporting agencies are required to report the account as current, not delinquent. Under the CARES Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( F ), the credit reporting agencies have failed to comply with this provision by continuing to report inaccurate late payment information related to my account, disregarding pandemic-related protections.
Legal Consequences : Violations of the CARES Act provisions may expose the reporting agencies and creditors to penalties and enforcement actions by federal agencies, as well as private lawsuits by consumers.
4. False Representation ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ) Under the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ), information furnishers like XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX must provide accurate information to credit reporting agencies. By reporting late payments that can not be substantiated or backed with proper evidence, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has made false representations of the facts. Additionally, the credit reporting agencies are responsible under the FCRA for investigating disputes and preventing inaccurate information from remaining on my credit report.
Legal Consequences : Violation of these provisions under the FCRA can lead to civil penalties, statutory damages of up to {$1000.00} per violation, and liability for actual damages caused to consumers. Further, if willful non-compliance is proven, punitive damages may also be awarded.
5. Exclusion of Inaccurate Transactions ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681c ) The FCRA mandates that certain types of unverifiable or inaccurately reported information must be excluded from a consumer 's credit report. In this case, the late payments reported are unverifiable, and under 15 U.S.C. 1681c, should have been excluded from my credit report by the credit reporting agencies, which they have failed to do.
Legal Consequences : Non-compliance with this section of the FCRA may result in civil liability, fines, and the potential for private lawsuits, where the affected consumer can seek actual damages, attorney 's fees, and statutory damages.
I have attached the relevant documentation and expect that appropriate measures will be taken to correct my credit history without further delay.

1681b ( e ) ( 6 ) - All CRAs must work together and be joined.
Notice, it is a fact, this information on my consumer report does not match other consumer reporting agencies shown in XXXX XXXX which means your company has failed to maintain reasonable procedures to keep a joint notification system and is in violation of 15 U.S.Code 1681b ( e ) ( 6 ). This account must be removed.
Notice, it is a fact, XXXX is aware a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report in accordance with the written instructions from the consumer to whom it relates. Please provide the written instructions that I, the consumer gave to your credit agency, which has authorized this furnished account. If you can not provide me with these instructions written by me prior to this notice this has been a fraudulently made consumer report using my identifying information.
XXXX XXXX shows proof of 15 U.S.Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) being violated by XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion, which constitutes aggravated identity theft in accordance with 18 U.S.Code 1028A. The account must be removed.
15 U.S.Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) I am writing to you in regard to the information listed on my credit report associated with my Social Security number. It has come to my attention that there are aliases and other information reported by your agency that are not directly from a VERIFIED RECORD. I am deeply concerned about the privacy and accuracy of this information, as my Social Security number is a private identifier and should only be used by entities with whom I AURHORIZED AND have direct business dealings.
Public Record : XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy Under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), information reported by credit reporting agencies must be accurate, verified, and validated. It is my understanding that information associated with my Social Security number should only be reported if it is directly from a creditor and meets these standards. Any reporting of aliases or other information obtained from public data gathering aggregators violates my right to privacy and fails to meet the legal requirements outlined by the FDCPA and FCRA, AS SUCH INFORMATION IS NEITHER ACCURATE, VERIFIED, OR VALID AS REQUIRED BY LAW. MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER HAS NEVER BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH PUBLIC RECORDS, AND SUCH RECORD GATHERING MUST BE DEEMED AS INACCURATE IF THERE IS A CLAIM THAT IT IS.
Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Accuracy of Information ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) : This section requires that consumer reporting agencies follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.
Dispute Resolution ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) : This section outlines the procedures that must be followed when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information in their credit report. It mandates that consumer reporting agencies must investigate disputes, usually within 30 days, and either verify, correct, or delete the disputed information.
Furnisher Responsibilities ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ) : This section details the responsibilities of entities that furnish information to consumer reporting agencies. It requires furnishers to provide accurate information, investigate disputes received from consumer reporting agencies, and correct or delete inaccurate or unverified information. You list aliases, who provided this information to you? You list previous addresses, who provided this information to you?
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Acquisition of Location Information ( 15 U.S.C. 1692b ) : While not directly about information accuracy, this section requires any debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer to acquire location information about the consumer without stating that the consumer owes any debt.
Communication in Connection with Debt Collection ( 15 U.S.C. 1692c ) : This section prohibits deceptive collection practices, indirectly requiring that any information communicated not be misleading or inaccurate.
Validation of Debts ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ) : This pivotal section requires debt collectors to provide consumers with a written notice containing the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor, and a statement that unless the consumer disputes the validity of the debt within 30 days, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector.
Consumer Credit Protection Act ( CCPA ) The CCPA is a broader act that encompasses several statutes, including the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), the FCRA, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ), and the FDCPA, among others. Specific requirements for verified, validated, and accurate information reporting are more directly addressed in the acts mentioned above. However, the CCPA 's establishment of these acts under its umbrella signifies the legislative framework for consumer credit protection, including accurate and fair credit reporting and debt collection practices.
Consequences for Non-Compliance Failure to comply with these requirements can result in several consequences for creditors, debt collectors, and consumer reporting agencies, including : Civil Liability ( e.g., 15 U.S.C. 1681n, 1681o for FCRA ) : As a consumer I can bring civil action against violators for actual damages, statutory damages, and in cases of willful non-compliance, punitive damages, I prefer to bring the claim against their insurance bonds.
Enforcement Actions : Agencies such as the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), along with the XXXX XXXX XXXX having jurisdiction, can enforce these laws, potentially resulting in fines, penalties, and injunction/directives to correct practices.
Reputational Damage : Non-compliance can also lead to reputational damage, i.e. : libel and slander elements of defamation of character, and civil action affecting the business relationships and consumer trust of the violating entity.
Therefore, I formally challenge the accuracy and validity of any information on my credit report that does not meet these standards. I request that you promptly investigate and remove any such information from my credit report. Failure to do so will result in further action, including pursuing legal remedies available to me under the law. This presentment contains specific reference to the disputed information in question format and otherwise!
Please provide me with written confirmation once the investigation is complete and any inaccuracies have been corrected. You may contact me at the address provided above if you require any additional information or clarification regarding this matter.

Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) - 15 U.S. Code 1681b : This section of the FCRA specifies that a consumer report can only be accessed with the consumers consent or for specific permissible purposes, such as a credit application initiated by the consumer. The hard inquiries in question do not meet these conditions, and as such, they must be removed.
2. 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Dispute Process : This section obligates credit reporting agencies to investigate disputes regarding inaccurate or incomplete information. Upon receipt of this letter and the supporting FTC Identity Theft Report, you are required to investigate and correct or delete these unauthorized inquiries.
3. 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 - Block of Information Resulting from Identity Theft : This section permits consumers to request the blocking of information, including unauthorized inquiries, resulting from identity theft.

Case Law Supporting Removal of Inquiries : 1. Dalton v. Capital Associated Industries Inc., 257 F.3d 409 ( 4th Cir. 2001 ) : This case established that credit reporting agencies are required to reinvestigate and correct inaccurate information when presented with evidence. Failure to do so opens them to liability under the FCRA.
2. Cousin v. TransUnion Corp., 246 F.3d 359 ( 5th Cir. 2001 ) : This case reinforced the responsibility of credit reporting agencies to ensure that the information in consumer reports is accurate. It further demonstrated that non-compliance could result in legal consequences.
Immediate Action Required : 1. Remove all Unauthorized Inquiries : I expect all the listed unauthorized inquiries to be permanently removed from my credit reports within 30 days of receiving this letter.
2. Provide Written Confirmation : Please provide a written confirmation that the inquiries have been removed as soon as possible.
3. Prevent Further Reporting : Ensure that these entities do not continue reporting these unauthorized inquiries, and take action to prevent any further unauthorized access to my credit report.
Failure to comply with this request within the required time frame will leave me no choice but to escalate this matter, including filing additional complaints with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), and considering all available legal remedies, including a lawsuit for damages under the FCRA.
I trust that you will act promptly to resolve this issue. I look forward to receiving confirmation of the removal of these unauthorized inquiries.

Dear CFPB, I am filing a formal complaint against TransUnion for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for the account XXXX with XXXX XXXX.
Despite multiple requests for correction ( letters dated XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ), my requests have been ignored, which is in violation of both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ).
FCRA Violations According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors are required to send periodic statements at least 21 days before the payment due date. The inaccurate late payment reporting on my account suggests a failure to comply with this requirement. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681i mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information in consumer files, which has not been upheld in my case.
TILA Violations The Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) emphasizes the necessity for accurate and timely disclosures to consumers. The incorrect reporting of late payments has caused undue harm to my creditworthiness and credit score, thereby violating my consumer rights under TILA.
Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) This act further reinforces the responsibility of creditors to provide timely statements, ensuring that consumers are not unfairly penalized. The discrepancies in the reporting of my payment history suggest that this obligation was not met by the creditor, leading to significant harm to my credit standing.
Evidence of Errors in Payment Reporting For the account with XXXX XXXX, the following discrepancies have been observed across the credit bureaus : TransUnion : The account incorrectly reports XXXX XXXX late payments in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, even though payments were made on time.
Pattern of Inaccuracies The continued incorrect reporting of late payments across TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX reflects a pattern of inaccuracies. These late payments have been falsely reported despite my payments being made on time and my account being in good standing.
Request for Immediate Correction I am formally requesting that these inaccuracies be corrected and that the incorrect late payment notations be removed from my credit report. The information should be updated to accurately reflect my payment history, which has been on-time. If this issue is not resolved within 30 days, I will escalate my complaint further, including legal action and filing additional complaints with relevant regulatory agencies to protect my consumer rights.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving written confirmation of the removal of these inaccurate entries.

I immediately responded with No, and received another text message that an agent would be contacting me. I received a phone call from a Wells Fargo number on my caller ID and so I answered, and they said they needed to help me so that no more charges would occur on my debit card that was now compromised. I asked for them to confirm what info they had about me and they confirmed my full name, address, last 4 of social security number. So, I followed the prompts and before I knew it, they had unauthorized electronic transfers out of my account. The amounts of the transfers were : {$17000.00}, {$45000.00}, and {$27000.00}. I had no idea what they were doing to my account. I immediately knew something was wrong in my gut, so I hung up the phone and ran to my local branch and within minutes the account was closed, and a new account was opened with all of my money in the new account. I spoke to a representative at Wells Fargo on the phone there and explained what happened. I was assured by the local branch and agent on the phone that everything would be fine and that the money was safe in the new account. My husband gets one amount once a year and this is what we live off of for the entire year. The very next day I logged onto online banking, which the bank had me reset my login info when I was there, and the next day when I logged on, the money was showing pending as leaving my account. I called Wells Fargo right then and they told me not to worry that the claim that was opened was still being worked on. I let 2 days go by and when I checked again the money was out of my new account. I called Wells Fargo again and they assured me that I would get the money back that it was just in the claims process. On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I called and got told that my claim was denied, and I would not be getting the money back. This is our living and what we live on. We do not get any more money. Why does Wells Fargo not honor the FDIC insured policy and help us get our money back? Shouldn't the bank protect their clients? Especially where it was a scam and fraud? I have banked with Wells Fargo for 35+ years, and this should be FDIC insured. This was clearly a scam and people posing as a Wells Fargo worker. They knew all of the lingo and everything they said was said to me when I went to the local branch and was talking to the agent on the phone in the lobby. This is infuriating. The bank will literally do nothing to help us resolve this issue. They said they would be sending a denial letter, but we have not received it yet. This is our living, and we work very hard at our business which hasn't been doing well at all, because of the economy. We have no idea how we are going to pay our bills now and try and have XXXX for our kids. We are devastated beyond words and don't even know what to do short of getting a lawyer that we can't afford now and trying to get our money back. Any help would be appreciated. This has made me not trust anyone at all and not believe anything or anyone. We are hardworking people that believe that working hard is how you make a living not scamming other people out of their hard-earned money. Wells Fargo knows there are scams and fraud and should have better practices in place to protect their clients.

I have been making payments every month still. But the payments were hold in an " unapplied fund '' account while my bankruptcy was active. And on XX/XX/XXXX, the payments for XXXX, XXXX, XXXX were finally applied to my account balance. And the ending balance was {$31000.00}.
And for the XXXX payment, I made an payment online from my shellpoint account portal. And this payment was withdrew from my XXXX XXXX checking account on XX/XX/XXXX with the following description : XX/XX/XXXX - Withdrawl from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT WEBPMTS ( - {$1000.00} ). But then around XX/XX/XXXX I tried to make the payment for the XXXX due date ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I noticed my XX/XX/XXXX payment ( fund already taken out of my XXXX account ) were never applied to my HELOC account balance. Shellpoint 's agent told me they never saw this payment in my payment history. So, I called XXXX XXXX to reverse the XX/XX/XXXX payment on XX/XX/XXXX. This is how it's displayed in the bank statement XX/XX/XXXX - Withdrawal from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT WEB PMTS Reversal Effective XX/XX/XXXX. I then call the bank and made the payment with the help of their agent and it's posted on my bank on XX/XX/XXXX. It's display as the following on my bank statement : XX/XX/XXXX - withdrawal from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT ACH PMT ( - {$1000.00} ). So, I thought this will cover my XXXX payment and for sure my HELOC balance should be now lower. So, around XX/XX/XXXX, I logged on to my account and found that the XX/XX/XXXX payment were never received and my balance has grown because they said since I had reversed the XX/XX/XXXX payment. So, I filed a complaint to correct the accounting error. And made the XXXX payment on the phone with the help of an agent. This was posted on my checking account on XX/XX/XXXX. It was displayed as this on my bank statement : XX/XX/XXXX - Withdrawal from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT ACH PMT ( - {$1000.00} ). Then around XX/XX/XXXX, I called the agent to see if the accounting error with the wrong balance has been resolved. They said still pending. And They did not see my XX/XX/XXXX payment, nor the XX/XX/XXXX payment. So, that's when I said that's it. this is getting too crazy. I am going to have my bank reverse those two payments since you said you never received them, yet the funds were already withdrawn from my checking account. So, I called XXXX XXXX to reverse the payments for XX/XX/XXXX and the XX/XX/XXXX. They appeared on the statement as follows : XX/XX/XXXX - Withdraw from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT ACH PMT REVERSAL Effective : XX/XX/XXXX.
XX/XX/XXXX - Withdraw from NEWREZ-SHELLPOINT ACH PMT REVERSAL Effective : XX/XX/XXXX. And then now they said although they can't see the payment that has been withdrawn from my account ( taken out of my checking account ), but they can see payments that have been reversed. So, now they are saying I still owe them for the XXXX payment as well. ( because I reversed the payment that they never received ). I provided them with my bank statement showing them that I have made three payments to them on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. And I have reversed these three payments on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX So, that should prove that my balance should stay the same {$31000.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX when the XXXX, XXXX, XXXX payments were applied. And I only owe XXXX, XXXX and XXXX payments. I have filed support tickets and have provided the my bank statement to prove that. But I never gotten any confirmation or follow up. And when I called again today and the agent said no they don't go by my bank statement. They go by their accounting system. And that I still owe them {$32000.00}. And I still owe them XXXX, XXXX, XXXX And XXXX payments.
This is insane. Please investigate this shady company please. I am at wits end. We need help proving that they did received my payments. And that the reversals were merely reversing the payments that have been withdrawn from my checking account that they claim they have never received.

Dear CFPB, I am filing a formal complaint against TransUnion for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for the account XXXX with XXXX XXXX.
Despite multiple requests for correction ( letters dated XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ), my requests have been ignored, which is in violation of both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ).
FCRA Violations According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors are required to send periodic statements at least 21 days before the payment due date. The inaccurate late payment reporting on my account suggests a failure to comply with this requirement. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681i mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information in consumer files, which has not been upheld in my case.
TILA Violations The Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) emphasizes the necessity for accurate and timely disclosures to consumers. The incorrect reporting of late payments has caused undue harm to my creditworthiness and credit score, thereby violating my consumer rights under TILA.
Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) This act further reinforces the responsibility of creditors to provide timely statements, ensuring that consumers are not unfairly penalized. The discrepancies in the reporting of my payment history suggest that this obligation was not met by the creditor, leading to significant harm to my credit standing.
Evidence of Errors in Payment Reporting For the account with XXXX XXXX, the following discrepancies have been observed across the credit bureaus : TransUnion : The account incorrectly reports XXXX XXXX late payments in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, even though payments were made on time.
Pattern of Inaccuracies The continued incorrect reporting of late payments across TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX reflects a pattern of inaccuracies. These late payments have been falsely reported despite my payments being made on time and my account being in good standing.
Request for Immediate Correction I am formally requesting that these inaccuracies be corrected and that the incorrect late payment notations be removed from my credit report. The information should be updated to accurately reflect my payment history, which has been on-time. If this issue is not resolved within 30 days, I will escalate my complaint further, including legal action and filing additional complaints with relevant regulatory agencies to protect my consumer rights.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving written confirmation of the removal of these inaccurate entries.

Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue.

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : First Payment Was Never Missed : Contrary to the report, my first payment was made on time. I have attached bank statements and payment confirmations showing that the payment was processed before the deadline. This should not have been recorded as late.
Clerical Error by XXXX : After contacting XXXX, it became evident that a clerical error was made when processing the payment. They mistakenly recorded my account as delinquent despite receiving the funds on time. I have attached correspondence with XXXX acknowledging this error and confirming the payment was made.
Inconsistent Reporting : While TransUnion and XXXX both show a XXXX late payment, XXXX has no record of any delinquencies on this account. This inconsistency between the credit bureaus is further evidence that there is a reporting error. I have attached copies of my credit report from XXXX showing that the account is reported as current and up to date.
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, [ Credit Reporting Agency Name ] has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report.
As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being.
Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act.

Despite my efforts to resolve inaccuracies on my credit report, I have encountered several issues that I believe warrant further investigation by the CFPB.
Background : On [ XX/XX/2024 ], I submitted a dispute to regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. The items in question were not properly verified, yet the agency concluded that the information was accurate. I am concerned about the thoroughness and accuracy of their reinvestigation process.
Details of the Complaint : 1. Inadequate Verification Process : Despite my detailed dispute, the credit reporting agency failed to verify the accuracy of the disputed information adequately. The verification process seems to lack transparency and thoroughness, which raises concerns about its compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).
2. Lack of Detailed Verification Methods : I requested a detailed description of the verification methods used by the credit reporting agency, including the specific procedures, sources consulted, documentation reviewed, and criteria for validation. However, this information has not been provided, despite multiple requests.
3. Timeline of Investigation : There is a lack of clarity on the timeline of the investigation, including key dates and actions taken during the process. This lack of transparency hinders my ability to understand how the investigation was conducted and whether it adhered to FCRA requirements. | Company has responded to the consumer and the CFPB and chooses not to provide a public response | TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. | GA | 313XX | null | Consent provided | Web | 10/16/24 | Closed with explanation | Yes | null | 10,473,807 | 42 |

My loan was not in default, there was an issue with a deferment agreement and they put my account in default without resolving the deferment agreement issue.
The new company refused to do business with me, and Hyundai Motor Finance is to blame for that. In addition, Hyundai Motor Finance has told me that the actions of their employee violated the law and their company policy. I have made multiple attempts to resolve these issues, but Hyundai Motor Finance keeps adding excessive interest to my account and claiming I own them more than double the amount of the note.
I attempted several times to make payments on the note, only to be refused by their website.

Having no idea where the money came from, I eventually tracked it down.
It was from a " Flex Loan '' from Citibank that was issued to me through my credit card.
I never opened this loan. I never requested it. I don't even know what a flex loan is.
I also happen to have about {$19000.00} in credit card debt from Citibank already, so getting a loan is the last thing I wanted or needed.
So I called customer service and explained the situation and say that I'd like to give back the money and close this loan that I didn't open or request. Even XXXX. A wash. But I was consistently denied.
They did issue my a new card, opened a fraud case ( nothing ever happened ).
Also, this happened with my old card, not my current one.
I don't have that card number any longer.
Thus begins my journey.
Since the beginning of XXXX I have spoken to Supervisers, Executive Response Team, Customer Service; anyone I can.
I was consistently told that I can't close the account, even if I pay back the money. Since I'm in debt already, the money would go to towards the debt I already have.
I did pay it back, because I just didn't want it.
NOW, I pay interest on this loan. My monthly payments have increased.
I personally feel as if I am being robbed. Citibank is just taking my money every month on a loan I didn't ask for, and no longer have.
When I tell you I have spoken to every department I possibly can, I am not kidding.
I am attaching the response from the " Executive Response Team '', which doesn't quite relate to my issue.
I'm also sending partial copies of a few of my bank statements.
You can see in XXXX, when I didn't have the loan that my payment was around {$250.00}.
My interest payments weren't that bad.
However, in the other two, you can see the Citi Flex Loan XXXX, with {$130.00} interest in XXXX, {$120.00} in XXXX and {$83.00} in XXXX. Plus the flex loan payment of {$270.00}.
I am at my wits end.
I can't afford this. I have debt elsewhere as well. I can't keep giving Citibank money.
I feel as if I am talking and no one is listening.
I was told time and time again that the Executive Response Team are the people to call.
I have done that. No help. I filed another complaint. Still waiting to hear what they say, but the agent I spoke to wasn't very helpful.
Please help I don't know where else to turn, or who to call.
All I want is my money back, and to get rid of the loan.
Until then then I will continue to pay a lot more interest that I need to.
Look forward to hearing from you.

They responded as a stall but did not acknowledge that the dates were different in my subsequent complaint.
On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a new complaint to Shellpoint mortgage services and mentioned in that complaint that it was not a similar complaint and provided additional documentation as to the errors on my credit report. The correspondence attached is Shellpoint in writing stating they made a mistake but also stating they found no errors. This is contradictory. They responded on XX/XX/XXXX which further confirms they didnt do properly due diligence. This is error XXXX, Shellpoint please confirm this is correct.
In XXXX I submitted a complaint provide a time stamped screenshot of my attempt to extend my forbearance that was ending in XXXX. The time stamp indicated XX/XX/XXXX. Shellpoint stated they sent me correspondence via mail I acknowledged as not received. They also stated they didnt receive my application online but I have proof of my attempt. When I finally was able to contact someone it was XX/XX/XXXX and I requested an extension of my forbearance. XXXX days later I was told that it was approved for the next month. XXXX not sure how that is possible if I requested an extension. Shellpoint mentioned in response to my dispute that I was supposed to submit the request within XXXX business days of my forbearance ending. That information was not translated in the hard correspondence they submitted in response to my complaint. I combed the correspondence letter and didnt see anything about a 5 day buffer period. I also did not receive a call providing this information. Your instructions state on your website to submit a request for extension. My attachment proves I did in fact do that. I requested that Shellpoint provide the outbound call log of attempts made by their loss mitigation team. They didnt provide and further confirms they did follow their written protocol as it relates to loss mitigation process.
I also raised in my XX/XX/XXXX complaint they updated my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX as delinquent instead of the true status of in forbearance. If my account was in forbearance effective XX/XX/XXXX was as of today my credit report dated XX/XX/XXXX indicates I am not in forbearance but delinquent as of XX/XX/XXXX. This is is indeed an error. Your correspondence confirmed my forbearance but it it isnt reflective on my credit report in XXXX?
I also requested the audio transcript be pulled that indicated the contradictory information provided but after XXXX complaints that information was not confirmed as accessed.
I am writing to dispute the accuracy of the late payment information on my credit report. I have reviewed my credit report from [ Credit Bureau XXXX ], and I have identified discrepancies in the reporting of late payments.
Below, I have outlined the incorrect information as it appears on my credit report : I am bringing to your attention that under the provisions of the Truth in Lending Act, XXXX XXXX XXXX, it is required that creditors provide accurate information regarding account status and payment history. I believe that the reported late payments do not accurately reflect my history and payment status. I have attached relevant documents, such as bank statements or payment records, to support my claim.
I kindly request that you investigate this matter and rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report promptly. It is within my rights, as granted by XXXX XXXX XXXX, to have accurate information on my credit report.
Please provide me with a written response regarding the results of your investigation within 30 days, as mandated by law.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response I am also sending a copy of this complaint to the CEO of Shellpoint as it is my last attempt to rectify the errors on my credit report. This is now considered a demand letter. I will be seeking monetary damages.

The check was distributed by XXXX XXXX however I had just opened my account days prior with Wells Fargo. I knew it could possibly be a complex issue with my out of state drivers license, it being a new account and the amount I understood what the process would be. When I went to teller I explained to her the situation and the amount of the check. I explained to her that I wanted to DEPOSIT it in my account. I told her I knew the process of holding the check to verify it and I am okay with that, whatever the time limit would be is fine. She ran my check thru the machine and stated they needed to call to verify it. I told her that was totally fine. The manager comes out to look at the check. Im explaining to her the same thing and she barely engaged with me, she wasnt welcoming at all. I had the feeling of discrimination. However I went against my gut. I waited for over 15 mins just to be told no one is picking up and they can not deposit my check. Im thinking the time of day maybe the verification team is on lunch. I came the next day right when they opened thinking its early and someone will answer when they call to verify it. Again the same teller that helped me the day prior said they would have to call to verify it Im like thats fine. She goes in the back 10 mins later she tells me no one is picking up. Im like really. I tried two other branches the XXXX XXXX XXXX by the XXXX XXXX and the one off XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I was treated the same I feel the manager at the XXXX XXXX branch flagged my account about the check I was trying to deposit. Yes I understand its a new account with no activity as well as the DL and the amount. However my account is open I have a legit DL and the check is legit. So why did yall make it so impossible to DEPOSIT a check that was written out to ME with my account in my name and hold the check until its verified?? Its fine though I got it handled. XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX help me open an account and had absolutely no problem depositing my check. Ive closed my account this is the worst service ever.
