Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
My account with TransUnion was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

TransUnion Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Equifax I am writing to address the timeline provided in your response regarding my credit dispute submitted via the CFPB. You stated that it may take up to 60 days to resolve my dispute, which is unacceptable and violates the timeline prescribed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

According to the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to complete their investigation within 30 days, or at most, 45 days if I provide additional information after submitting the dispute. I have not provided such additional information, and therefore, your investigation should be completed within the initial 30-day period. 

This delay is unacceptable, and if you fail to meet the legal deadlines, I will be left with no choice but to pursue further legal action for non-compliance, including filing a lawsuit for FCRA violations. 

Please confirm in writing that you will adhere to the legal requirements and resolve this dispute within the mandated 30 days from the date of my original submission. I expect a prompt resolution to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

On XX/XX/year> I filed a complaint with the CFPB against XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, due to fraudulent accounts listed on my consumer report. I was notified that the accounts in question were verified as accurate by the alleged creditor, however nothing I requested disputing these alleged accounts was returned to me. I requested that validation and proof of claim of the disputed debt was requested in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692 and as amended by adding the following new Title 8 USC 802 et seq., and the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666 et seq. All of which work in conjunction with each other, including the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) 15 USC 1601 et seq. I specifically stated that this is NOT a request for verification or proof of Claimant 's mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM made pursuant to the above-named Titles and Sections. I have yet to receive such request and the information has not been blocked from my report and is still fraudulently reporting, damaging my reputation greatly. Amid submitting this complaint, I also submitted a copy of my FTC report as well. Delete these fraudulent accounts
