Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
For months Ive been trying to get TransUnion to change multiple accounts status from derogatory to paid. Ive spoke with my creditors and have verified my current status. TransUnion is neglecting to do anything at all. Ive sent dispute by mail and online and have no contact for over XXXX  days. I have no delinquent or derogatory accounts at all. 

Accounts affected : XXXX ( XXXX loan ) : XX/XX/XXXX my account balance was {$1100.00} XX/XX/XXXX my account balance is {$1300.00} this is a personal loan, I dont know how a balance could increase ; account not past due or delinquent. Since XXXX TransUnion has been decreasing my score from this creditor with every decrease in balance. This company has been illegitimately been reporting since the year XXXX started. Including XXXX false late payment ( XXXX ). I called the creditor multiple times and no one knows how to handle the situation and have a hard time speaking in XXXX making it more difficult to thoroughly explain the severity of the issue, but what the creditors are able to verify is that my account is current and also that they report every XXXX days. I also called TransUnion and what the supervisor told me was to just dispute it or call the creditor. He was no help at all. 



XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX ) : Ive been in constant contact with an amazing associate at XXXX in XXXX to this account. Ive paid this charge off in XX/XX/XXXX this account status should be reflecting as paid, was a charge off not a currently derogatory charge off. I have paid this company and transunion should no longer be reporting this account as open/derogatory. I have written letter, called the creditor, and submitted a dispute online and have not received any word. I can not even access the transunion site. 


This inaccurate reporting has drastically affected my current living and has positioned me within unqualified regions for a multitude of things. Its really stressful that credit is so important for a lot of people and we need it to be nearly perfect. For something so sensitive it extremely difficult to get in contact with well, anyone, to help you fix this and within a timely manner. Credit reports are so quick and so accurate when you have negative items reflecting but when you need a mistake you did not make, fixed, on credit you work your XXXX off for, itll take up to XXXX days. Its very unfair.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022 I sent a letter to Experian, XXXX and XXXX that they were reporting incorrect names and addresses on my credit report. XXXX responded that with a claim that a third-party is assisting with my credit after I sent all proper identification documents to identify myself that I was requesting that they correct the inaccurate names and addresses. The information has not been corrected as requested. 

Experian mailed my dispute results and removed some names and XXXX address when there are multiple names and addresses. The dispute results also brought to my attention that XXXX social security numbers are being reported. If I'm not mistaken every human only has XXXX social security number. It seems to me Experian is allowing fraud. 

The XXXX imposes obligations on credit reporting agencies concerning the accuracy and completeness of information in an individual 's consumer report. Per XXXX, the credit reporting agency is not in compliance by knowingly reporting inaccurate information

Complaint narrative:
about a month ago, I submitted a complaint on this same website about a collections account against my credit From and sequium solutions saying that I owe them over {$350.00}. i didn't get a email, call, text, or letter warning me or telling me about the situation it just all happened at once. I even tried calling the collections agency myself and they never picked up the phone. my credit was plummeted and I had a collections account on my credit report without hearing a word from anyone. the people at CFPB also saw this as an issue and resolved it by taking the account out of my report which ill be forever grateful. everything since then has been fine until today, XX/XX/2022, XXXX emailed me saying they're attempting to collect the same debt I already disputed and that this communication is from a debt collector. I want these people to leave me alone how can they still try to collect a debt that was already disputed?
