Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
An unauthorized charge of {$290.00} was posted to my credit card account by XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I promptly disputed the charge with my credit card company, providing clear evidence that I did not authorize this transaction. However, despite the lack of authorization and my dispute submission, Goldman Sachs arbitrarily denied my claim, determining that the transaction was valid without providing sufficient justification or conducting a thorough investigation.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a complaint to these Bureaus a month ago, yet the erroneous information on my report persists. I have not received any updates from the Bureaus, apart from your notification indicating that the company has addressed my complaint. How can I be assured that they have conducted a thorough investigation into the inaccuracies on my report? What procedures were utilized to verify the accounts? This entire situation is exceedingly frustrating. Over 30 days have passed since I lodged my complaint, and the disputed accounts remain unchanged. If this issue is not resolved, I will be compelled to pursue legal action due to the significant stress it has caused me. Additionally, I am worried about the security of my personal information, which has been compromised by the Equifax, Experian, and Transunion data breach.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
" I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent.

You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.
