Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of.

Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the XXXX  this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX, am addressing several violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) that have occurred regarding my credit report. These violations include several failures by the credit reporting agencies and debt collectors to comply with the law, such as not verifying the accuracy of information, reporting false or outdated debts, and failing to provide me with necessary disclosures. Specifically, they violated several sections of the FCRA, including Section 616, which deals with civil liability for willful noncompliance, and Section 603 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ), which pertains to the disclosure of my personal information. 

Additionally, I am highlighting inaccurate late payment reports on my credit, as well as the failure to validate debts under Section 1692g, which mandates debt collectors to provide proof of an alleged debt before collection can continue. I have made specific requests for corrections, including the removal of inaccurate accounts, updated payment status, and validation of the debts listed. 

I have demanded that these issues be resolved promptly, with the expectation that any false reporting will be corrected or removed. If the parties involved do not take immediate action, I am prepared to pursue legal remedies available under the FCRA.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: IA

Complaint narrative:
We purchased a sewing machine XX/XX/XXXX and was given 5 years interest free and the machine was paid off in off XXXX, 6 months early. We purchased a second sewing machine XX/XX/XXXX and was told we would get 5 years no interest. We noticed in XXXX of XXXX 7 months of monthly interest charges with a {$4000.00} back interest charge in XXXX. After looking into details of the charges we noticed the second machine was set up as 12 months no interest. Both machines were paid using the auto pay feature on synchrony 's credit card account. We called synchrony bank to request the interest be taken of the account due to the clerical error and asked why would someone with an XXXX score and who paid off this first sewing machine 6 month early occur {$5900.00} in interest. After speaking with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX all supervisors, they all gave us the company line. ( it's against financial laws to waive interest charges. ) XXXX was last supervisor we spoke with and said if we did not have any question other than the interest on the account she would release the call and immediately did so. We feel the 34 % interest charged is predatory and the 12 month no interest which should was sold as 5 year no interest was bait and switch tactic.
