Complaint narrative:
The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.

Per the company 's response : " Upon receiving your most recent correspondence we were able to confirm on XX/XX/year>, you upgraded your Blue Cash Everyday Card to the Blue Cash Preferred Card. On the same day we submitted a request for enrollment for the PCAC benefit. It is important to know, your renewal month is in XXXX, which means you missed the timeframe for the credit issuance for XX/XX/year>.

I relied on the information provided by American Express and my decision was based on that reliance. It is fraud to promise a credit and then not provide it. If you do not wish to provide it, please return the fee that I paid to upgrade my card as I would not have done so if you had not promised me the PCAC benefit.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was at the XXXX XXXX store at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. The dealership and I agreed on a monthly rate and we began the contracting process. They pulled my credit on XX/XX/XXXX and right after that they came to me and said. We made a mistake with the pricing and your monthly rate is going to be higher. I have excellent credit and the higher rate was due to them miscalculating something. 

I told them that that's on them, we agreed on the price already and that I will not be forced to pay more even if they already pulled my credit. I left the store and placed a complain about price gauging and credit deception with CFPB. I believe I was tricked to get my credit pulled so I can be forced into paying more. I never received a copy of my credit application. A month later I got a letter telling me what my credit score was. 

Today, on XX/XX/XXXX the XXXX XXXX store initiated a hard pull again, completely without my permission. I called them and they didn't seem to care. I called TU and put a dispute for the hard inquiry from today since I clearly did not give my consent to a second hard pull in a month. 

Ideally I would like both hard inquiries removed but at a minimum the one from today, XX/XX/XXXX must be removed since I did not give them my permission. 

Due to their hard inquiry my credit report dropped XXXX points. 

For more details refer to pages XXXX of my credit report attached.
