Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
My account with 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. 


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!

Complaint narrative:
Citi card has been the worst. A data breach with my pertinent personal information has occurred with suspicious activities on my account involving Citicard. Ive yet to receive a resolution on the XXXX that theyve promised to send & since thats evident that it has not been sent is another violation of my privacy rights to have documents not reach the proper address because of frivolous fraudulent activities that Citi has been involved with as well. Ive promptly & competently completed all requests asked of me throughout having services with Citi even until now & still no resolution from Citi except saying that I still owe them no matter what even though they know theyve stated a XXXX is a resolution to removing their negative, false account from my credit profile & have disregarded this just to tell me on my recorded line that they are participants in double dipping by requesting a payment even after a XXXX in writing is a solution to this nightmare. How honorable? If they arent ensuring that their systems are sending the mail to the proper person then how can we believe that my account with them always reflected the proper payments postedI know howWE CANT. Remove this account from my credit report asap along with any damaging history as well.
