Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I tendered payment of an instrument with correspondence that stated I was making an offer for full satisfaction of the debt to Ally Financial 's address on billing state where it says to send payments for full satisfaction on XX/XX/year>. I sent copies to the Corporate address. I sent multiple letters and a notice of dispute to both addresses. I only received 2 responses from the address on the billing statement that stated they didn't understand the documents that were received so it wasn't binding on them. Ally placed a late payment to my credit report in violation of the fcra. My payment was dishonored.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>. I sent the CFPB a complaint in about XXXX and XXXX of the accounts held under that bureau. Little did I know that Transunion would get word of that complaint and take shocking actions to cover up the inaccuracies they have been verifying and updating incorrectly for months. A third-party monitoring service gave me some sense that there was a problem with my XXXX and Transunion credit reports. There was no data reporting under XXXX or Transunion. I tried calling both companies and XXXX stated that information on their report was being disputed, so I figured it may be the CFPB complaint I sent in concerning XXXX. Next, I called Transunion and was told that a creditor had created a separate credit file and that I needed to call all my creditors to see who did what. I explained that sounds crazy, and you are sending me to correct your internal issues. So, I told him I would get back to TransUnion, once I figure out what is going on. Two days go by and i get a notification from XXXX XXXX, and when I checked the account ; I was horrified! I have never seen such an empty credit report ever in my entire life so bare! All Inaccurately reporting accounts deleted, but so did they delete my positive open and positive closed accounts as well. I was left with one account, and I was not given any notice that a dispute was being conducted or had been approved by me to be done. Transunion took action to save face, to prevent this information from ever getting to the public. so it seems that Transunion took it upon themselves to conduct an investigation of some sort and delete my whole credit file ; leaving me with one account started last then a month ago, I truly think Transunion was trying to cover up the mistakes they have conducted in the past, and hoped the CFPB would not get wind of what they had done to me in secret! My trust in the banking system has been shaken to its core, with the recent actions of TransUnion. I just hope the CFPB has the power and integrity to hold TransUnion accountable for all of the violation against me a consumer, and for all the FCRA laws they are breaking still in my case. Now my credit is being impeded and my ability to obtain any credit is hampered, because TransUnion has decided to even delete my good standing accurate accounts. When you see the XXXX XXXX evidence, that I will present with this complaint ; I think you all will draw the same conclusion I have. That TransUnion 's motivations for what it has done to me purposefully is self-preservation simply put!

Complaint narrative:
I need clarification as to why you are reporting certain information on my credit report. Please review the following Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number XXXX XXXX Im aware section 609 requires you to have a contract bearing my signature verifying that the debt truly belongs to me. Please show me this documentation otherwise delete this unverifiable account from my credit. 
After you have finished my request, send me a copy of my credit report reflecting these changes. 

Also Ive tried myself to contact this collection agency multiple times for verification, with no response at all. Which leaves me to believe there is no investigation happening to verify this account.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
