Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

This is predatory lending at it's finest. Also, to just verbal tell me that my interest rate is calculated daily and that I have even began to pay against the note yet, only the interest rate. Consumers are being misled and this happens every day. I've even seen it because I worked for an auto loan company.

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. 

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to the Bureaus regarding the inaccuracies and unknown entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't received a response even after 30 days. It feels like my concerns are being overlooked, and I'm not being treated fairly. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. Since that time has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated right away. If this doesn't happen, I may have to consider legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was compromised in the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which adds to my worries about the safety of my personal data.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed
Company: Slovin & Council Co., L.P.A.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding harassment and unfair debt collection practices by XXXX XXXX XXXX and their assigned attorney 's office, Slovin & Associates. Below are the details of my case : Background on the Loan and Bankruptcy Filing : In XXXX, I filed for XXXX XXXX bankruptcy, which was dismissed in XX/XX/XXXX. 
Following this, XXXX XXXX XXXX informed me on multiple occasions, through recorded phone conversations, that my balance for the auto loan on a XXXX XXXX XXXX was {$0.00} and that they would send me the title for the vehicle. 
After over a year of back-and-forth communication without resolution, I ultimately surrendered the vehicle to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX under the understanding that the balance remained {$0.00}. 

Debt Sold and Harassment by Third-Party Collection Agency : In XXXX, despite prior assurances, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX sold the debt to a third-party collection agency. This agency began contacting me and harassing me about payment for the vehicle, including threatening wage garnishment. 
I subsequently filed for XXXX XXXX bankruptcy ( Case # XXXX ), which was successfully discharged. The company was notified of this bankruptcy proceeding by the court. 

Continued Harassment Post-Bankruptcy Discharge : On XX/XX/XXXX, I received another letter from Slovin & Associates ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) attempting to collect the discharged debt. 

Today, I contacted Slovin & Associates and spoke with an individual named XXXX, who was rude and unprofessional. She claimed I was being sued for the debt and refused to accept any information regarding the bankruptcy discharge. Instead, she demanded my updated contact information, which I declined to provide. I reiterated that the debt was discharged and that I do not owe it. 

Impact and Planned Actions : I have been subjected to years of harassment regarding this discharged debt. This ongoing behavior is not only distressing but also a violation of federal bankruptcy laws and fair debt collection practices. 

I intend to pursue further action against both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Slovin & Associates. In addition to submitting this complaint to the CFPB, I will file complaints with the FTC, my states Attorney General, and the U.S. Trustees Office. I will also consult with my bankruptcy attorney regarding the possibility of sanctions against these companies. 

I request your assistance in investigating these practices and ensuring that XXXX XXXX XXXX and Slovin & Associates comply with federal regulations. Please confirm receipt of this complaint and advise on any additional information or documentation you may require.

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint narrative:
I stayed at XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX. They held a {$75.00} deposit of which they said they returned on the XXXX. I never saw it refund. I wrote Chime and they said it never happened. So I wrote XXXX XXXX  again and got an email from their billing dept that not only said they refunded it but sent a screenshot of their system showing it refunded. I had to dispute it with chime. Not only did I upload the email correspondence with XXXX XXXX but also the screenshot from XXXX XXXX showing their system had already refunded it. On the day ( ten business days later ) they were supposed to credit my account they said they completed the investigation and denied my dispute. I have no idea how that's even possible. I wrote the palms again and they verified AGAIN it was reversed on the XXXX. Now Chime is saying I have to dispute AGAIN and wait another 10 business days for the credit. I've always liked chime and never had problems but this is not ok and I need that money.
