Late Payment - Paid & Current ( Equifax ) XXXX XXXX XXXX  - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - Closed and Paid - XXXX Remaining Balance/XXXX Past Due XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  - XX/XX/XXXX - Closed and Paid - XXXX Remaining Balance/XXXX Past Due XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  - XX/XX/XXXX - Closed and Paid - XXXX Remaining Balance/XXXX Past Due I am following up on a previous complaint I filed regarding several late payments being inaccurately reported on my credit file. I submitted documentation and explanations showing that these reports were incorrect and requested a proper reinvestigation, yet the same late payment entries remain. It feels as though my evidence and concerns were not given the attention they deserved, or that my case was prematurely closed without full review. 

These inaccuracies continue to harm my creditworthiness and misrepresent my payment history, painting an unfair and inaccurate picture of my financial reliability. Ive always taken my credit obligations seriously, which is why this situation has been so deeply frustrating. I understand that the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of information reported be accurate and that furnishers and bureaus alike maintain procedures to ensure that accuracy. When that doesnt happen when errors persist after a legitimate dispute it leaves consumers like me powerless, with no choice but to keep asking for what should have already been corrected.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint and Request for Correction of Inaccurate Credit History Reporting To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute and request an immediate correction to an inaccuracy in my credit report regarding the calculation of my average credit history length. 
According to my report dated XX/XX/XXXX, my average length of credit history is shown as XXXX years and XXXX months. However, this is incorrect. The report clearly lists my oldest open accountCapital Oneopened in XX/XX/XXXX, with an account age of XXXX  years and XXXX  months. 
This discrepancy indicates that my authorized user history and/or account age are not being accurately included in the calculation of my average credit history. As an authorized user on this long-standing XXXX XXXXXXXX account, the age of that account should be properly factored into the computation of my credit history length, as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) for accuracy and completeness. 
Please conduct a full investigation and correct this inaccuracy on my file. I also request written confirmation once the correction has been made and a copy of my updated credit report.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

I am filing this complaint because a debt collection agency Credence Resource Management , LLC has continued to contact me regarding an alleged debt even after I sent a formal Cease and Desist Letter under 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I clearly requested that they stop all communication with me about this account, but they have continued to call, email, or mail me after receiving my written notice.Their continued communication is a violation of my rights under the FDCPA, which prohibits debt collectors from contacting a consumer after receiving a written request to stop. I am requesting that the CFPB review this matter and ensure the company ceases all contact, removes any false reporting from my credit file if applicable, and complies with all federal collection laws.
