Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
TransUnion allowed a collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX, Account XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  to show up on my credit report without ever verifying it with me. I never gave permission or written consent for this to be added, and yet its there, damaging my credit. Ive already asked for validation in the collection agency by filing also here in the CFPB last XX/XX/year>, but they havent provided anything. No signed contract, no breakdown of the alleged balance, no proof of who even owns the debt or has the legal right to collect it. 

This completely violates 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) of Regulation F, which says Im supposed to get proper verification when I ask for it. On top of that, I never even got a real chance to dispute this, which is a violation of 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ). And yet TransUnion still reported this to my credit file like its accurate, thats not just unfair, its illegal under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( A ) of the FCRA.

Also, how can I even trust TransUnions report when this same account isnt the same information reported by the other credit bureaus? Thats a major red flag. If the information isnt consistent across CRAs, then it clearly doesnt meet the maximum possible accuracy standard under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). It makes me seriously question how TransUnion verifies anything or if theyre just blindly accepting whatever gets submitted without checking with the consumer at all.

At this point, I want this account permanently removed from my TransUnion credit file. It was reported without consent, without verification, and without following proper procedures. Its causing damage that shouldnt be happening, and TransUnion needs to be held accountable. This entire situation has been frustrating, stressful, and completely avoidable if they had just followed the law.

Complaint narrative:
A forged auto loan account was opened in my name by XXXX XXXX and submitted to American Honda Finance Corporation ( AHFC ) without my consent. I never signed the XX/XX/year> contract. I filed an FTC identity theft report, a police report, and submitted supporting documents ( ID, forged contract, signature comparisons, affidavit ) to AHFC and credit bureaus. Despite this, AHFC has not removed the account. I declined their attempt to resolve it through a buyback with the dealer. I am not liable. I am requesting immediate removal of the account under FCRA 605B and formal confirmation.

Complaint narrative:
I have previously disputed with Experian, Equifax and Transunion regarding multiple accounts that are inaccurate. As of today, I have not received any responses or proof that they are doing proper investigation with my dispute. They ignored my rights to obtain an accurate credit report. They are non-compliant with the FCRA. These erroneous reports are badly hurting my credibility. I'm certain that my rights as a consumer protected under the law have been violated by this inaccurate information.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL XXXX XX/XX/XXXX TO : CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU ( CFPB ) To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding my auto loan with santander XXXX  usa.i believe i have been subjected to predatory lending practices and unfair treatment that has caused significant financial harm. I took out a loan as young and inexperienced borrower for a vehicle that was worth around XXXXover the years, i have paid more than XXXX toward this loan i was young and inexperienced i even gave a down payment of XXXX which is didnt know at the time did not go towards principal, despite all of this and clear overpayment i still owe around XXXX, and the balance has barely decreased due to extremely high interest rate and excessive late fees hundreds of dollars in late fees with each occurrence.the only reason i have had late payments is due to financial hardship and difficulty keeping up with the inflated payment schedule and interest.this feels deeply unfair, especially after already paying more than double the value of the original loan. I recently learned about the 2020 multistate settlement against Santander for its lending practices.Based on the terms of that settlement and the nature of my loan, I believe I may qualify for relief, including possible balance reduction, forgiveness, or reimbursement. 
I am requesting a full review of my payment history and loan terms, immediate investigation into whether my loan qualifies for relief under the settlement or any current programs, waiver or reduction of the remaining balance based on hardship and overpayment, removal of any negative reporting caused by excessive fees or mismanagement. 
This loan has created years of hardship, and I now realize it was structured in a way that made repayment nearly impossible. I am asking for a fair resolution and appreciate your attention to this matter.
