Complaint narrative:
I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address XXXX handling of my prior disputes regarding unauthorized accounts on my credit report. On XX/XX/2025, I submitted a dispute via certified mail in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). However, in a response dated XX/XX/2025, TransUnion indicated that the disputed accounts had been investigated and verified as accurate. This response constitutes a violation of FCRA Law 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which requires that a consumer reporting agency complete its investigation and provide a response within XXXX  days. 

Following this response, I submitted a subsequent request via certified mail for documentation verifying the method of investigation used to confirm the accuracy of these disputed accounts, as stipulated under FCRA Law 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( XXXX ). As of today, XX/XX/2025, I have not received any documentation outlining the verification process, including the specific sources contacted or proof of the individuals or entities consulted during the investigation. 

Due to these violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I formally request the immediate removal of the following unauthorized accounts from my TransUnion credit report : XXXX. XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX  XXXX  XXXX  Account # XXXX Enclosed, please find copies of all prior dispute correspondence sent to TransUnion Consumer Solutions XXXX along with proof of certified mailing and delivery confirmation. Should TransUnion fail to rectify these violations and continue to report these unauthorized accounts, I will be left with no alternative but to pursue legal action against the agency for non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

I urge TransUnion to resolve this matter expeditiously. Kindly provide confirmation of the removal of the disputed accounts within XXXX  days. Failure to comply will result in the initiation of appropriate legal proceedings. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your timely response.
