Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the following late payment entries on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX These entries are incorrect and do not accurately reflect my actual payment history.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to a credit report that accurately represents my financial history. This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate action to update or remove these late payment entries, as failing to do so is a direct violation of my rights under federal law. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution as soon as possible.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My credit report shows late payments that arent accurate. A billing and reporting error from my bank has unfairly damaged my credit. Under TILA ( 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) ), creditors must report payments accurately, yet a payment I made was not properly recorded, leading to an incorrect late mark on my report. Additionally, I was not given the required 21-day notice before the payment was due, making the late mark invalid. Ive asked the credit bureaus to provide proof of these late payments, but they havent given me any real documentation to back up the claim. Because of this, the incorrect information is still on my report, which is hurting my credit score.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, this accounts transaction and charges are fraudulent. I recently checked my credit report and noticed that there's a few inquiries that I don't recognize, I did not authorize, nor given consent to the company to pull up my credit report and it might've been done without my knowledge. It did a lot of damage to me. I need these fraudulent inquiries to be removed from my credit report ASAP in order to prevent further fraudulent activity under my account. Do anything necessary to remove them from my report. It is stressing me out and making me anxious. Hope you can address this soon, please.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Complaint narrative:
I can not access my Experian account using their website ( I receive no account verification message/email/call when logging in via the required XXXX step verification process ). When I called in to have them assist me getting access to their account, their automated voice tool told me to use their website ( which was not working ), then hung up on me. When I called back and asked their automated voice tool to connect me with an agent, it said that it couldn't connect me with an agent unless I told them what my issue was, and when I told the voice tool my issue, it again pointed me to the website ( which was not working ) and hung up on me. I looked online, and according to others who have this issue, the only way to speak to someone at Experian is to fraudulently open a credit dispute, then tell the agent the real reason for calling once they answer. I'm currently on a XXXX minute hold time ( and counting ) trying to speak to a human. I shouldn't need to falsely open fake credit disputes just so that I can speak to someone about an error on their website preventing me from accessing my credit account. This is blatant anti-consumer behavior and is completely unacceptable considering we're all REQUIRED to use Experian- we don't have a choice to take our business elsewhere.

I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.
