Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
I am demanding the immediate removal of the unauthorized transactions and inaccurate information appearing on my credit report. These errors are a direct result of a data breach that compromised my personal and financial informationa situation entirely outside of my control. Despite my efforts to rectify these issues, I continue to suffer the consequences of reporting failures that should have been addressed long ago. 

The fact that these inaccurate and unauthorized entries remain on my report, despite clear indications that my personal data was compromised, is completely unacceptable. This reckless mishandling of my information is damaging my creditworthiness, jeopardizing my financial stability, and blocking me from important opportunities. I will not tolerate this negligence any longer. 

I demand that you immediately investigate and permanently remove these erroneous entries. Any delay, inaction, or refusal to comply will be treated as a blatant violation of my consumer rights, and I will pursue all legal avenues available under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and any other applicable laws to hold your company accountable.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to withdraw {$500.00} cash from XXXX XXXX up ATM at XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo branch in XXXX, XXXX. The ATM made noises but failed to open the container to provide the cash. I drove around to the ATM attached to the wall at the same branch and was able to withdraw the cash. I noticed that they charged me for both withdrawals on my Wells fargo app so I called the customer service line at Wells fargo to report the issue within minutes of the original withdrawal. She assured me that it would be taken care of quickly. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Wells Fargo stating that no malfunction had occurred and they denied my claim. I called the number on the letter, only to wait a long time on hold and be provided with another Wells Fargo worker that is less than effective. I was told that my claim would be submitted to the Executive board for further review and I would hear back within XXXX weeks. I stopped the local branch and explained what had happened to the branch manager. She assured me she help and provided me with the executive case manager- XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX just called and stated that he was only a liaison and that they denied the claim again. When I asked for video footage and the amount in the ATM at the end of the day ( as it would not match ) I was told that he could request the information but they are not required to send me any evidence. Basically- Wells Fargo is guilty of Fraud at this time. Thank you for your help.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute Violations of FCRA & Failure to Conduct Proper Investigation To Whom It May Concern, I am formally disputing an inaccurateaccount appearing on my credit report. This account is associated with an address that has never been my residence, and has never been reported on any of my credit obligations. Furthermore, the name on the account is missing my middle name XXXX making it abundantly clear that this account does not belong to me. 

Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) & Failure to Investigate By continuing to report this clearly erroneous account, this credit beauru is in direct violation of : 15 U.S. Code 1681i Failure to Conduct a Reasonable Investigation : You have previously allowed this inaccurate account to remain, despite clear evidence that it does not belong to me.

15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Failure to Ensure Maximum Possible Accuracy : This account has no valid connection to me, yet it remains on my file.

15 U.S. Code 1681n Willful Noncompliance with the FCRA : By failing to act despite clear discrepancies, this credit buearu is willfully violating my rights.

15 U.S. Code 1681o Negligent Noncompliance : Your failure to correct this error after previous disputes demonstrates negligence.

Undisputed Proof of My Accurate Credit Profile Every single one of my legitimate installment and revolving accounts has always been and continues to report under my one and only address for the past XXXX  years : XXXX XXXX XXXX This undisputed fact is further corroborated by the documentation attached to this letter. There is no justifiable reason for this account to remain on my file.

Demand for Immediate Action Given the blatant violations outlined above, I am demanding that : 1.Immediately remove this fraudulent account from my credit report.

2.Provide written confirmation of the accounts deletion within 30 days.

3.Cease and desist from any further reporting of this account.

Failure to comply will result in legal action against this credit bureau for willful violations of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and any other applicable federal or state consumer protection laws.

This is your final notice to correct this issue before I escalate the matter further. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
