Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Sirs, Despite my repeated efforts, TransUnion continues to report inaccurate information, which has caused me significant harm. I have sent multiple letters ( with attached certified mail proof marked as Transunion XXXX ) and have also submitted several complaints through the CFPB portal ( Cases numbers after this paragraph ). However, TransUnion has consistently responded by claiming they have " verified '' the account. This approach is both unnecessary and incorrect. The account should be deleted, as it contains severe inaccuracies that violate the law. 
Previous Cases, company did nothing : XXXX XXXX XXXX I hereby outline the inaccuracies reported by TransUnion, which are unrelated to any account verification processes that TransUnion has repeatedly and improperly invoked over the past several months : 1. Illegal Monthly Updates on a Charged-Off Account : As demonstrated in the attached document marked TU XXXX Reporting Updates, TransUnion has been unlawfully updating a charged-off account on a monthly basis. This practice is not only inaccurate but also violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
2. Inconsistent Reporting Across Credit Agencies : The attached document, marked XXXX Reporting Differences, clearly illustrates discrepancies between the reports from XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX regarding the same account. Specifically, the Date Last Active is reported differently by each agency. Such inconsistencies are not only inaccurate but also constitute a violation of federal law under the FCRA. 
These actions by TransUnion are in direct contravention of the law, and I demand immediate deletion of this inaccurate account from my credit report. Failure to correct these inaccuracies may result in further legal action.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the handling of my credit report disputes by the major credit bureaus, including [ XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion ]. I believe that the credit bureaus did not conduct a thorough and complete investigation into the items I disputed, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

After conducting my own investigation, I have gathered substantial evidence proving that the credit bureaus did not meet their obligation to investigate my disputes properly. Despite my submission of detailed information and documentation supporting my claims, the credit bureaus failed to correct the inaccuracies in my credit report. As a result, the disputed items remain on my credit report, which has caused significant and unjust harm to my credit standing. 

I am requesting the immediate removal of all the disputed items from my credit report, as the credit bureaus have not fulfilled their legal duty to investigate these disputes adequately. I trust that the CFPB will take appropriate action to ensure that my rights are protected and that the credit bureaus comply with the FCRA. 

Thank you for your assistance.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I thought I was booking a round-trip flight from XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX, XXXX. I was using the XXXX XXXX website ( this is a fairly routine trip for me, I reserve it several times a year ). When I attempted to add a rental car to the reservation I was somehow ( unknowingly ) directed to another website " XXXX XXXX  '' which turns out to be XXXX. You will note on the attached documents that " XXXX XXXX  '' uses many of XXXX XXXX logos and for all intents and purposes appears to be the same company as XXXX. After I booked the reservation on XXXX XXXX I realized that I had been misled to this website and that other, more desirable travel times and rental car options were available on the XXXX website. I IMMEDIATELY cancelled the reservation on XXXX and assumed that a refund would be coming to my AmEx credit card. After several days, when the refund did not appear, I called XXXX and was informed that the airfare portion of the reservation would be refunded but the rental car portion could not be refunded. I have not received the airline portion of the refund and I strongly disagree with the failure to issue a refund for the car. This is a VERY deceptive practice by XXXX. 

The first five pages of the attachment are the receipt for the trip and the following pages are AmEx 's explanation why the refund can not be processed. I honestly don't believe a real person at AmEx reviewed this complaint. As stated above, I disagree with everything XXXX is doing. I won't be doing business with either of these companies in the future. I would truly like to see CFPB 's involvement in this deceptive practice and I look forward to receiving your response.
