Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX IL XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Bankruptcy Reporting by TransUnion Violation of FCRA , FDCPA, and CFPB Regulations To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute TransUnions inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy and associated accounts on my credit report. TransUnion did not obtain this bankruptcy information directly from the court, which calls into question the accuracy of their reporting. This violates multiple consumer protection laws, including but not limited to : 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681 1681e ( b ) : Credit reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. Since TransUnion did not verify this bankruptcy directly with the court, the information is unverified and inaccurate.

1681i : Consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate information, and credit reporting agencies must investigate and correct any errors within 30 days.

1681c ( a ) ( 1 ) : A bankruptcy must be reported accurately and can not be listed for more than 10 years. If TransUnions source for the bankruptcy is not the court itself, they are misrepresenting the source and validity of this information.

2. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15 U.S.C. 1692 ( If a debt collector is involved ) 1692e ( 8 ) : It is illegal for a debt collector to report false or misleading information to a credit reporting agency. If any debt collector is reporting this bankruptcy information inaccurately, this would constitute a direct violation of the FDCPA.

3. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) Regulations Under CFPB guidance, credit bureaus must ensure they are using reliable and verifiable sources. Reporting bankruptcy information without court verification is deceptive and misleading, violating CFPBs prohibition against unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices ( UDAAP ).

Because TransUnion is failing to comply with these laws, I demand that the inaccurate bankruptcy and all associated accounts be removed from my credit report immediately. I have attached a copy of my credit report with the disputed information highlighted, along with any supporting documentation.

Failure to correct this violation may result in further action, including formal complaints to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), CFPB, and potential legal recourse.

Complaint narrative:
I have sent in the necessary documents to Equifax, Experian and Transunion credit reporting agencies, to block the fraudulent remarks off of my credit report and to my surprise, their specialized fraud department just told me over the phone today that after receiving my documents, they decided not to block the fraud items off of my report, stating that my documents did not meet the criteria of a blocking which in fact is a lie. I have sent them exactly what the laws from XXXX site advises consumers to send in to the reporting agencies when a victim of i.D theft.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX my girlfriend opened a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX account and added me as an authorized user. I was removed as authorized user 3 months later in XX/XX/XXXX. I disputed it with all 3 bureaus and XXXX and XXXX removed it. Experian refuses after 9 disputes and 3-4 disputes with XXXX ( lender of the XXXX XXXXXXXX ) and both have said it is accurate. And it is not accurate. XXXX then proceeds to tell me they wont report any historical data. Last month ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I saw they started reporting it on my credit report again. I called XXXX and disputed it again with experian since they said they wouldnt report historical data, but in fact did. I called and requested they request to have it reported and removed by experian and they refused and I was hung up on twice by XXXX. I cant get a live person at experian to explain my situation. This is very frustrating and its dropped my FICO score by XXXX points while my other two scores are within XXXX points of each other. I really feel like they are causing me damages by making it hard for me to get any credit cards, loans, and housing since its not just barely above XXXX. I dont know what to do anymore. This has been ongoing for almost 2 years.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I have an account on my Equifax report that is reporting incorrectly. The account was opened in XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX for an auto loan. The loan was paid off on XXXX XXXX it is now past the 10 year date of the loan being closed. I reached out to Equifax in regard to removing the account, the supervisor representative stated she can only dispute the account which will lead me to having it staying for an additional 10 years. 

I was also told by the Equifax representative I disputed the account back in XXXX. I did not need to dispute anything on that closed account. XXXX XXXX XXXX has not responded back to me directly either. 
Looking forward to this issue being taking care of in a timely manner. 

Thank you!

Complaint narrative:
I have identified serious billing errors under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) on my credit report, including unverified late payment marks and the creditor 's failure to accurately reflect payments and credits. Despite my prior formal request for evidence substantiating these late marks, the creditor has failed to provide any legally required proof of investigation or verification. Furthermore, the creditor did not issue a proper billing statement at least 21 days before the due date, as mandated by law, rendering any late payment reporting invalid. This blatant disregard for accurate reporting is unacceptable. I demand that these inaccuracies be immediately corrected by updating the items to 'Paid as Agreed ' or removing them entirely from my credit report.
