Company: Diversified Adjustment Service, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Dispute Against Collections on My Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the collection accounts reported on my credit report, as they are inaccurate and violate consumer protection laws. Below are the specific accounts in question : Account Name : Diversified ADJ SVC Account Number : XXXX Creditor : XXXX Date of Collection Entry : XX/XX/year> I am disputing the legitimacy of this collection entry based on the following violations of federal law, specifically 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ), 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ), 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ), and 15 USC 1681-5 2 ( 7 ) ( a ) : 1. 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) - Failure to Provide Accurate Information This section requires that all information furnished by a debt collector to a consumer be accurate and complete. The collection agency has failed to provide accurate details related to this debt, such as the correct amount owed and the history of payments, leading to an incorrect reflection on my credit report.

2. 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ) - Failure to Disclose the Right to Dispute This section mandates that the debt collector must clearly and effectively disclose the consumers right to dispute the validity of the debt. I was not properly informed of my rights as a consumer to dispute this collection account in a timely manner, which violates the legal disclosure requirements.

3. 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) - Insufficient Validation of Debt The collection agency has not provided sufficient and complete validation of the debt, as required by law. As per this regulation, all debt collection efforts must be supported by appropriate documentation, and the information provided to me lacks the necessary detail to verify the legitimacy of this debt.

4. 15 USC 1681-5 2 ( 7 ) ( a ) - Outdated and Inaccurate Reporting According to this statute, credit reporting agencies must not report inaccurate or outdated information. The information reported by the collection agency is not only inaccurate but also may be outdated, which further violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Action Requested : I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and remove the inaccurate collection entries from my credit report. I expect that these violations be addressed, and the collection account in question be removed as it fails to comply with consumer protection laws.

I am revoking all rights of them communicating with me via Call/Text/Email .

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA

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, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
